Yet another product for the “yeah this would be interesting if smartphones didn’t exist” pile (and funnily enough this one even requires one to even do anything)

Nothing, most software has supported webp for 15 years, the last few stragglers have caught up two years ago or so, people on the internet are just very incapable of letting go of an opinion.

Up until very recently, the cult of rust was going - very - strong on lemmy. Things have somewhat normalized by now, but for a long time, any programming related topic was full off, often ill informed, takes why “rust should have been used for this” and similar things. The Rust community has generally been extremely toxic as well, not helping its reputation. Now that we are a few years in and various major Rust projects have had numerous embarrassing bugs reality has sunk in, but as these things go, the backlash will last longer on the internet than the hype ever has.

Oh, no, no, feudalism. With the present techbro billionaires as the new aristocracy. Money will be useless because the serfs can’t afford anything anyway and work will be optional yes, you always have the option to starve.

Yup, and modern webservers are - very - good at handling a ton of requests, if your backend is solid, it takes quite a lot of traffic before it’ll buckle.

Thiel killed the outlet that outed him.

Oh please no, Johnny was one of the worst parts of the game.

Esc :q for closing if you didn’t modify anything, :!q for closing and discarding any changes you made and:wq for closing and writing the changes to the file.

Yup, lemmy users frequently seem to have this strange idea that lemmy is somehow representative of the Nintendo customer base. I agree that I find Nintendo’s business practices terrible and their last Pokemon mainline title was frankly boring and uninteresting. But the reality is also that Scarlet/Violet was the second-best selling Pokemon game ever.

So they are -that - desperate now.

The AI stuff might genuinely factor into it, I largely don’t use it myself but from what I understand from some colleagues it’s churning out decent react and co, while other languages can have mixed results.

Wonder if they copied that from their pitch deck or something, I don’t think I have ever seen that touted as a feature in any other context.

Nah it couldn’t, the DS only supported its own and GBA cartridges.

I presume it’s a mix of things, there are near daily changes making services worse for consumers in one way or another, which fuels the relevancy of Doctorows writing on the one hand and the desire of people to be agreed with on the other.

1. What in the world are you doing that’d cause grub to get “fucked up” by running an update.
2. Just use -Syu, not -Syyu, the latter is for when you swap mirrors or your local index is broken.

Yup, the baseband modem does what it’s firmware tells it to, and that’s entirely independent from the phone’s software. And open baseband modems to my knowledge don’t exist.

Yup, the fediverse has a lot of things still to solve and figure out before it goes anywhere. I have little faith that present moderation would scale well if there was a massive growth in the userbase. And then there’s the other issue. There’s a discussion on the peertube github for two years now on how to keep instances from dying.

I mean the data from those has been used for AI training for ages so it’s hardly surprising it got good at it.

Clownflare staying true to its name.

It’s linuxmemes, you get the choice between that and debian propaganda.
