Yo dawg I heard you like DHMO…

Even if we ignore the scifi horror of outsourcing our collective intelligence to an AI and assume such a hypothetical AI can solve every problem and essentially do every job for us, it would need to build a society where working for an income is no longer required, which is absolutely not what’s happening lol.

Leather jacket Huang and Scam Altman just want to make morbillion dollars in a race to become the first trillionaire. They don’t or refuse to recognize the long term effects of destroying the very fabric that makes their businesses profitable just like every other investment gamble has. If no one has a job, they don’t have money to spend on product and services from your businesses, or your business clients’ businesses.

Alas, line must go up.

Anyone else think of this lol?

NYP headlines will aleays be funny but stop calling them a newspaper. It’s a tabloid lol.

MS was anything but lol, they had a swarm of lawsuit dramas over by then. Only Apple glazed MS because they quite literally saved them from bankruptcy which they only did as insurance against a proper antitrust case.

Google was newer but they also weren’t a private company, they were riding silicon valley money to the moon.

Regardless, Steam is a monopoly but their immediate competitors are the only ones chucking anti competitve measures around like crappy DRM and price lockins.

There was a funnier one with GOG enjoying itself in the corner and the complaining party being Epic lol

Yeah have fun with your shitty triple buffer and unsupported arbitrary monitor angles lol.

about alpha this and that.

Most of wayland’s features like HDR weren’t implemented until literally last year. I have forum threads 3 times older than this lemmy account on how slow wayland progress was.

Wake me up when Wayfire goes stable and I’ll happily switch in superior XFCE performant style.

It was one of the dumb “kick the can to downstream because muh security & effort” things which is why support for it really only came recently: https://dec05eba.com/2024/03/29/wayland-global-hotkeys-shortcut-is-mostly-useless/

I’m sure it will eventually get better, but like all of the things wrong with wayland can be summed up as “alpha protocol subject to change plz to not use (introduced: 7 years ago)” with “Options: alpha-protocol-kde, protocol-gnome-thing, protocol-whatshouldhavebeeninweston7yearsagoyoutwat (sway), protocol-hyprland-memelol-v2”

I like how it has several widespread generations of intel processors and then just one random AMD A4 for good measure lol

Yes and no, it depends on what it is and what you are doing.

Focusing on close objects like displays and even books for long periods of time can cause you to lose sharpness in your eyes against far reaching objects. Hence why corrective eye glasses were often associated with those who spent a lot of time reading or studying in universities.

However, VR and especially AR glasses project the image at a certain focal length that makes the object appear further away, causing your eyes to contract accordingly like you were actually focusing on a real object 10 feet away.

That being said, 10 feet only gives you the same effect as sitting far from the TV. They really should try bumping it to 50-100 feet so that it really shows up like a giant projector screen in the distance.

Conversely, you should spend time touching grass and looking into the distance at infinity so that your eyes keep their dynamic range of focus, especially if you spend all day working on a PC monitor that’s probably less than a yard/meter from your face/

I’m still on XFCE + Compiz because Wayfire doesn’t support global hotkeys (more of wayland’s fault) nor does it have 3d windows for the cube effect.

I upgraded to an RTX Quadro 4000 on my media server (from a 750ti) and it still doesn’t support AV1 lmao.

Even last time I was on PC partpicker, the top beefy 10k USD media chonker machine was targeting a specific CPU for cheap AVX512 support because apparently it was required for heavy AV1 work, which I assume meant the GPUs couldn’t keep up.

This dude specifically had a hate boner for linux because they got absolutely shredded in the server space and the only reason MSFT survived in the end user product line was because they were already an established monopoly capable of forcing and coercing OEMs to never to offer an alternative OS from the factory lol.

But yes, at least they had some actual marketing ideas and design talent and not an infinite stream of slop.

Although even Ballmer gifted us the crapshow that was windows 8 before he conveniently dipped.

tbf I got one that was trying to warn me of incorrect tax info which needs to be resolved only a month after I started lol.

Wasn’t gonna click the link but I did do a double take because they formed it really well like a proper spear phish email would.

Of course my job at some point involved memeing with gophish templates so I don’t think they’ll ever get me, especially when I’m using a proper client that lets me immediately swap to HTML and see the blocked image tracker tag lol.

Yeah they use kbdx so it works out of box for both. I think it even technically works for the original Keepass.

Haven’t used KeyPassDX much yet outside of some quick tests, but the autofill is really good because it shows up as a slim popup tab option on your keyboard where the typeing suggestions usually go.

Gonna do this soon as well. Used to use syncthing for auto photo transfers and I’m tired of Bitwarden’s crappy UI and terrible interop with autofill/autogenerate.

It’ll probably never happen due to the nature of KBDX, but I would kill to make a resilient native sync feature so that orgs wouldn’t be locked into proprietary vaults which drags you into vendor lock in when one of them starts to tank.

ZFS RAID2

I assume they mesnt RAID-Z2 but I’d like to think they actually meant a ZFS array built on top of an obselete RAID 2 of cloud accounts lol

I wonder if this just means the supply was really low.

Considering the current ebay pricing, it doesn’t really make sense for any scalper to buy it unless they think it will become some weird coveted collectors item.

Either way rip steam machine. I hope they continue to fund Proton and Lepton because it really made a massive impact for gaming on Linux.

forever game

TeamFortress 2 lol
