Whilst this is nice. I’ve had a color ebook reader for maybe four years. It’s not a new technology.

How?

Shy tories will always mitigate the polls. It’s unlikely to be a bloodbath, but the infighting after a loss might be the real killing blow to the party.

I wonder if openai will start working on things that aren’t terrible for society at some point.

This thread is a good example of just how circlejerky and bubble like lemmy has become.

You are correct. Outside of the hard-core users and tech nerds, Ubuntu is massively popular. But you listen to this community, and you’d think the opposite.

This is a good example of how most of the performance improvements during a rewrite into a new language come from the learnings and new codebase, over the languages strengths.

Lol, no, it isn’t. Anyone can set up an apt repository and ask you to use it. Many providers do… You might mean the walled garden of an official singular apt repository is safe.

🤷‍♀️ the snap works absolutely fine with no issues, the flatpak doesn’t exist and the apt is two years out of date.

I’m not on the outrage boat myself tho

I sometimes use a snap

I don’t think you understand the case. I think you’re just saying things out of complete ignorance. Which is fine it’s just a comment thread on a tiny website, but at some point, you should just go read up on the actual situation rather than continue to make statements out of ignorance, that doesn’t contribute to the conversation or benefit anyone.

The downvotes are a combination of American propaganda working, and also everyone here is a mid to older millennial, genx tech bro, ergo hate the young people’s thing.

Don’t take it personally, downvotes mean nothing on lemmy, and it’s more a reflection of their inability to discuss points and just blind react to points that go against their propaganda influenced moral compass.

It’s funny that the only app being banned, is the app that young people used to have a dramatic effect on American politics recently, first by blocking the red wave, then by tanking democratic polling thanks to their support for genocide.

It’s funny that Twitter or Facebook, which is absolutely full of outside influence on America, isn’t banned. The Russian and Chinese bot networks can live forever there, that’s fine.

They aren’t banning a thing, they are banning a kind of a thing.

If they were banning social media you may have a point, they aren’t.

Sir, this is a discussion platform. People leave text to have a discussion.

if you don’t want to, that’s okay. You don’t have to continue. Just don’t reply, you don’t need to leave a message like that, that’s just weird

Just at the cost of setting up the American version of china’s firewall, right?

It’s going to be weird for the rest of the world to have access to tiktok, but just America bans their citizens from accessing it. America really just isn’t so far from what it hates.

It’s also strange to see people championing a path towards this, it’s all good until they decide to ban the thing you don’t hate though right?

I would argue that this is the opposite order. You want to take care of the people who actually hold power over you now, China has no power over you.

Look at what the eu has done. First control and regulate the local companies.

Nothing glow-in-the-dark is anything that could be described as “bright.” What you probably want is something that is florescent under a blacklight. Someone probably makes something specifically for that, but otherwise, a lot of dyes are naturally florescent

It’s probably a reference to fish & chips, which… yeah.

The answer that the status service websites will tell you: we automatically detect outages by performing http requests and checking responses for errors

the actual answer: some overworked developer gets woken up at 3am via pagerduty and manually set the status website to an outage state

Honestly, I’m surprised the other two-thirds aren’t too. What do they have to benefit from being parasites on society.
