No, Effective Altruism is often interpreted by tech CEOs as being more effective to not donate anything short term so they can use that monetly to get a shitton more money that they can theoretically do more good with later.
Except they never explain what the criteria are for starting to donate, so they keep amassing more weath. It’s just used as a flimsy excuse to be greedy bastards.
the trend of only having mouse button integrated into the touchpad.
Then there are governments and companies in the world who suddenly switch lot of machines at the same time.
Yep. Both Germany and France’ governments are actively switching to Linux and open software as a matter of policy
They make their money elsewhere
They make a lot of money on Office365, which doesn’t work on Linux without WINE. With people switching to Linux, they’re going to start switching to LibreOffice and OpenOffice, killing one of MS’s cash cows.
Of course, I don’t expect C-suite execs to be capable of thinking that far ahead
It still can be a pain at times (complex chamfers and fillets dont have particularly rugged calcs), but yeah it’s gotten better over the years
That was only a year ago. And collections were added way before the merger.
Honestly, I haven’t seen anything get added since the purchase. The main change I’ve seen is more pushing of vortex and collections when you go to the download page, there’s an extra page/window you have to click through now.
Also, splitting requirements and dependencies in different sections of mods’ description tabs. While they did need more differentiation, putting them in separate expansion buttons was too much and actually makes checking dependencies harder, especially with having pages instead of a long list
For an unpaid mod? Thats about the only time I’d be ok with it. But I wouldn’t want to install a mod AI coded.
Another factor is if it’s the difference between getting expanded dialogue for a character with the same voice, or with a different VA that can significantly change the personality.
For example, Serana Dialogue Add-On vs Serana Dialogue Expansion. I personally can’t stand the new personality added with SDA.
That being said, I’m significantly less tolerant of dialogue expansion mods that have spotty quality for the voice or writing. If you’re taking a shortcut in one area (aka AI voice acting), you should be more scruitinizing for the other parts of the mod. AnBeeGod is guilty of this at times. He’s about 50/50 on whether it’s great or sub-par
Some of the hate for snaps is because it’s Cannonical trying to use its install base (Ubuntu) to push a particular format on the entire community as a vector for control
No idea. Also, my comment is mostly a joke
My personal Nobara install idles at 2.5GB. Meanwhile my W11 laptop at work idles somewhere between 8-11GB. That’s a lot of data getting used up when the computer is doing literally nothing.
No matter how “bloated” you think Linux distros are, none of them are remotely close to W11. The worst I know of is Bazzite, which can sit around 4Gb at idle. Still low enough to do a lot of things on a system with only 8GB
And the says a lot of random shit just to flame
So you admit he’s an asshole. Why should anyone waste their time on his videos then?
From the videos I’ve seen, he just does trial and error - no math or understanding involved. That’s not engineering - that’s called design. Didn’t stop him from bashing engineers in one of his videos saying that school was pointless. After that, I stopped watching his videos. Thankfully I only wasted time on 2-3 of them, including the swearing roomba.
Meanwhile I highly doubt he knows (or knew) anything about fatigue, trusses, or kinematics, things you have to have an understanding of in mechanical engineering. Maybe he learned after the fact, but I don’t really care.
As a mechanical engineer: if a software engineer completed school, they’re an engineer, deal with it. We’re not talking about someone that doesn’t know what they’re doing cobbing things together for 1-off demos like Michael Reeves
Yeah, this fits the bill. Thanks!
I’m skeptical. Isn’t the EU Commission the body that’s in the pockets of industry lobbyists?
Aka, pretend it’s Spanish, since it’s a word from pretend Spanish (specifically Esperanto, not Portuguese)
I feel bad for anyone you’ve ever had a relationship with. You act like an abuser.
Edit: Seriously? You downvoted all of my comments? You just keep getting more petty
and the scalpers
Can we please stop constantly suggesting there’s mass scale scalping of Valve hardware? The Steam Deck and Steam Machine both had queue requirements to precent an individual from buying a ton of hardware.
You could find a dozen or so people selling their one spot in line to buy a *single * device. That’s not wide-scale scalping.
That says a lot more about you than it says about LLM’s
