  Will be screening this for my high school classes!

  Thanks for the reference. Will try it out. Always had issues using openstreetmap for some reason. This seem more integrative rather than have the navigation app and the actual map being two separate entities.

  Indeed. And lots of normal human beings are able to run marathon. Pretty easy if you set your mind to.

  Use industry software standards. Adobe, Autodesk etc etc. I know, these solutions sucks, but it is the world people live it. Most Lemmy people are into tech for the sake of tech. You are technological literate to the highest degree. Understand and critique developments in tech. Very important work! However, a graphical designer probably isn’t that literate and wouldn’t be able to do work in a Foss environment. Yes, 1 in a 1000 might use Gimp but good luck colabbing with other people in the industry.

  That’s a value proposition. Explain to me how you would price this for it to be fair? If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. This has nothing to do with enshitification.

  I wonder what arguments people have to justify a downvote. Polarized either/or views. Capitalism is a great idea if regulated. Look to history and find good examples of societies that aren’t based on capitalism. They don’t exist.

  I agree and value the Marxist analysis of capitalism. I’m a socialist. However, I don’t think that a Marxist economy would work. Social responsible capitalism works. Capitalism run amok doesn’t. Unfortunately, it is getting out of control, especially in the USA.

  Fun to dig around a bit!!! Hoped to find my old ATi 9700 card from MSI on there, but only found the chip :(

  Best sport in the world. Football is more than just FIFA etc, you know?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You guys need to stop⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends on what sort of experience you want, what roads you, whether it’s mostly country or city, do track running etc.

  I like manual more for various reasons. I don’t do much city driving nor do I get stock in heavy traffic ques. I drive country roads and highways and do a few track days. With a manual I get a much more satisfying experience, as it requires more skill to make fast and/or smooth shifts. The tactile feel of the manual gear shifter makes me feel more connected to my car. Flappy pads shifting automatic doesn’t require the same skill nor has the same tactile feel. It’s awesome for city and ques though.

  I don’t think we have the same idea of what it means to be connected with the car. Most EVs aren’t seeking to have you drive them, they are seeking to drive you, imho (except maybe the Hyundai N range thats coming, but only because it tries to manic cars).

  And it will probably happen. No one in power gives a fuck about logic and reason. It’s all about sending a signal. People don’t care about privacy but they don’t like pedos!

  11 years ago, I attended a talk by Gottfrid Svartholm in Berli. He told us that we have lost the internet. Pretty good foresight eh?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube intensifies fight against ad blockers showing pop-ups, and users are frustrated | Blocking ad-block users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. Remember when everyone would leave reddit because of the API tax? 😂 reddit, front page of hypocrisy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a little confusing for the average user, just like other fedi sites like lemmy and mastodon. First search result on google doesn’t even link to a peertube site where you can actually watch videos. DDG does show peertube.tv as the first result, so thats good.
