- Comment on Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform 6 days ago:
I’m pretty hesitant to find the time to install and learn Linux but I’m VERY hesitant to upgrade to Win11. I’m having trouble understanding what the selling point for it is over Win10. I feel like it used to be clear and exciting to upgrade but they’ve managed to make this feel sort of dreadful.

You’ll be happier in general with the Deck I think unless you care about Nintendo exclusives

The whole thing is vampire propaganda to make the general population feel more safe
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 2 weeks ago:
Yes, this absolutely. It should have always been like this but there is no other option now with AI.
Only thing I disagree with is using LLMs - if anything they should make that mandatory now because it’s going to be totally integrated in the future and they’re going to need to get used to using it. BUT grading should be 1000% more stringent on getting facts right and specifically looking for things that LLMs get wrong.

I don’t understand how you are not paid for planning time. Without providing that the school just makes their teachers glorified babysitters.

Is there not a way to plan the assignment so that it’s not doable in 1m with ChatGPT?

I’ve been playing Terraria and finally moved on to hardmode after about 75 hours of futzing around and getting all the pre-hardmode things.
- Comment on Front is back. 3 weeks ago:
My childhood home was like that too. We only ever went in the garage door on the side of the house so the front door felt foreign to me and the few times we used it felt weird.

How much time have you put into Inkscape now? I’m hankering for some reviews from people who are also refugees from the Adobe ecosystem.

Really nervous to get into that ecosystem after they were bought by the Canva crew
- Comment on The window for a convincing UFO video has closed 1 month ago:
I’m not sure there was ever the possibility of a really convincing UFO video. I’d be skeptical of something extremely realistic even if we were still in the days before convincing traditional effects. It’s just too high a bar - it’s much easier to believe that a video was staged, even to an unbelievable level, than it is to believe that it depicts actual beings from another planet. I think that’s why the UFO community hangs their hat so much on Disclosure these days. They must realize that only confirmation from a trusted authority could be real confirmation.
- Comment on This is real 1 month ago:
I just hope they alienate enough people fast enough that we can see an actual effective check to this rogue administration. They’re taking a lot of power pretty fast but also burning a lot of bridges.

- Comment on Unlike in movies, most smart people aren't good in chess. 1 month ago:
Yeah I was sorta interested in pursuing Chess more at least as a hobby a few years ago. Learning about the ‘meta’ strategy was kind of intimidating and discouraging. The basic strategy is interesting to me but learning and memorizing different games just sounds awful to me. I guess it’s like most things - the more you learn about it the more you realize there is a lot more to it than what you initially thought it was.

Well I guess I don’t know the timing but I wouldn’t be surprised it Lemmy was it - there are a bunch of non-native English speakers here
- Comment on Am I going crazy, or has people's spelling gotten awful lately? 1 month ago:
OP’s browsing habits likely recently changed to a place on the web with more English as a second language users. Those kinds of misspellings are pretty common with people who learned a lot of their English from streaming Youtube and other online shows

- Comment on Adobe Deletes Bluesky Posts After Furious Backlash 1 month ago:
Yeah the subscription might have been the icing on the cake but their anticompetitive practices have been pissing people off for much longer.
I gotta be honest too, I’d be a lot happier paying Adobe a monthly fee if they seemed more serious about actual updates and bug fixes instead of just jamming more AI ‘features’ down our throats.
There are two bugs in Illustrator alone that have been following me around for years, unfixed.
