I’m pretty confident Putin is the number one backer of immortality age reversal research globally.
He does all sorts of things, as is tradition among Russian Tzar’s, to halt his aging. The joke is the anti aging gurus tend to die before turning 70 and it has scared every Russian leader in history when they’ve observed that
Also - is the person that’s sending you a ping or SYN really going to notice your status?
I know for a fact several did, as I’ve had a lot of former hello only people ask about the status through the years
It’s not like the job market is good at the moment.
Just finding a job isnt an easy task currently
The hello is not the issue. But getting a notification before the question is.
Ultimately what happens if there’s a bunch of “helloers” approaching you, you end up muting the messaging app and only check messages every X time. Rather than being available, pros and cons. And there’s definitely an argument to be had, that it’s the superior way of working - But hello only people, just shoot themselves in their foot and get longer time to response
How come you find the latter annoying?
It’s the most effective way to let the entire company aware they should not start their conversation that way with me
I have people I just ignore until there’s two notifications
I honestly think the styling is the main reason it feels AI.
because the sentences are too short, they’re a style I sort of writes at times. Just sort of. LLMs tends to output longer sentences, rather than the two-three words. Then dot. That’s a rare one for LLM
However it’s not an anti AI site, so they might have vibe styled it and probably had a LLM help with some of the wording. However I think a human did vet and rewrite parts of it.
Functionally all new apps are “Linux development work”, as modern C# solutions are containerised and hosted on Linux servers.
Microsoft gave up on Windows servers a decade ago when they released .net Core, as it was the sound solution to ensure continual growth of Azure and fighting off Java adoption hosted through AWS/GCP
.net framework is a niche framework now, which just a few legacy platforms run today.
However the reason IT requires Mac and Windows for everyone, is because they can lock those machines down. Like mad down, they don’t want to build software to lock Linux machines down from a central place.
You can just add [toy] to the listing and send them some wood looking like a 64GB DDR5. You just sold them toy rams for their toy PC
Unless Best Buy is owned by Lenovo it doesn’t matter, assuming it was a warranty case. It’s the producer that covers
I’m so happy my grandparents bought their laptops from the local computer store.
They’re marking everything up, pretty wildly, but damn do they offer support.
And they also pushed FOSS on them, through libre office rather than the insane Microsoft office subscriptions the big chains try to push on their customers
I used to play Axis and Allies with a roommate, we would routinely have a game on the living room table and play bits of it at a time.
That game’s a monster
The previous reports is they only bought books with ISBNs, which iirc started in the 60s
They’re kinda comparing apples and oranges, fairphone doesn’t really have a budget phone.
They just have one model, which they gradually upgrade the hardware of and gives a new number.
Right now there’s barely any sellers of a Fairphone 4 as an example, and you’re able to get it for ~400 euroes from refurbished condition sellers.
Most brands, continues to sell old models. Which ends up as the budget phone 3 generations down the line. But fairphone doesn’t, they only sell a fairly powerful phone from new condition.
And the consistency required, especially for steaming.
Disappear for a month and lose 30% of your audience, it’s brutal
need to crowd fund a comedy statue that will get them loads of publicity?
Because it gives them loads more of publicity, also people loves to be involved if they have a chip in it.
Why do people buy subscriptions for the biggest streamers, earning 10s of thousands of dollars in ad revenue each month? Because they want to be a part of it, they want to chip in to let the show go on
People who are fucked by the status quo and wants something different… Erhn wait. Binface was on the ballot?
Yeah apparently 62% of Clacton just hates anything not British, so they can’t vote for a spacefaring warlord
If he does this he’ll be a fucking legend.
Imagine the PR show if Binface, Burnham and the manager of the Crown and Treaty Pub got that done
Hating a minority is a theme showing up in politics, every time a society had a downturn.
Jews were scapegoats, they were generally seen as greedy and thrifty. So when the economy went to shit, the workers blamed an ethnic group associated with being successful business people.
The hate for Muslims went up a lot in the aftermath of the 08 crisis. Although the reasons for problems tends to be greed among the elites, they also tend to control the narrative. And will throw a minority under the bus to save themselves
