Ms. Jackson in my ass…
- Comment on Get AMS 3 months ago:
I never really got over the waste the AMS produces. I love it for the auto load and backup fillament features but multicolor printing needs a few more innovations to be really practical imo.
- Comment on Switzerland now requires all government software to be open source 3 months ago:
Just on a federal level so far, cantons (states) do not have this law as of now. But we expect most to follow in the next few years.

That’s why, if someone responds with what?, I usually wait for a few seconds. It usually resolves the question on its own.
- Comment on 3 months ago:
I would love to but the explanation is private.
- Comment on 3 months ago:
Yep, the swiss government. Complicated is probably the best word to describe it. We are a very decentralized country (which makes sense for a country that was founded as a coalition to fight the royals that oppressed its people, none of those partners want someone to rule them) so every canton (state) does a lot of things differently than the other ones. But it is nice to see that after years of neglect they try to actually push digitalization by establishing common standards and systems.

I work for a company which creates software for the government. Super exited for more OSS projects from out company.

Just hold volume up and power for 3 seconds.

Managed democracy is not a joke.
- Comment on Microsoft wants to hide the 'Sign out' button in Windows 11 behind a Microsoft 365 ad 6 months ago:
Now figure out how much that is in lost revenue and write a headline like „Microsoft to loose economy one million gazzillion $“.
- Comment on Best deal you ever got? 6 months ago:
Portal 2, bought it a month ago for 1.-

If anyone is still looking for one, I got myself this model (the one for 2 cats but it works the same): petlibro.com/…/petlibro-granary-automatic-pet-fee…
The company has other models with wifi and cameras as well as an app but this particular model is just a dumb timer based machine.

Not every country has the same relationship to their government. In Switzerland for example our government does not know what we own and earned, we declare it ourselves. It is fully digital but still longer than 5 minutes (takes me around 30 minutes with an income to declare as well a some stocks and other things).
I guess the US has a similar relationship to their government.
- Comment on Keywords tried to make a game using GenAI but said the tech was 'unable to replace talent' 8 months ago:
Maybe, remember the 80/20 rule, and we are most likely not even at 80% yet.
- Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI? 8 months ago:
Our software uses ML to detect tax fraud and since tax offices are usually understaffed they can now go after more cases. So yes?
- Comment on YouTube Premium announces 100 million subscribers 9 months ago:
Yeah I got it after some other lemming told me that you can get it for cheap with a family account. I pay 4 bucks per month now which apparently also supports YouTubers more than watching ads on their videos.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s not 9 months ago:
Except for the fact that the remote has no home button anymore. It always opens the Apple TV+ app. Otherwise I agree though, ad-free experience, best TV-box I ever owned.

- Comment on Burger King Giving Discounts If Facial Recognition Thinks You're Hungover 10 months ago:
No other fast food chain here (we don’t have that many options) has as many vegetarian options, so if I crave a cheap mediocre burger it will probably be Burger King.
- Comment on Pika Labs new generative AI video tool unveiled — and it looks like a big deal 10 months ago:
This is not the death of artists but of studios. When creating movies will become cheap, movie studios will be the ones becoming unnecessary. But artists are the creatives who feed these tools and who now can create content on their own.
- Comment on MemoryCache, a Mozilla Innovation Project 10 months ago:
Yes but I like it, so where do we go from here?
- Comment on Suspects can refuse to provide phone passcodes to police, court rules 11 months ago:
Also nice to know, on an iPhone you can press power and volume down for a few second and then cancel the upcoming dialog. It will only be then require your pin to enable any other authentication method.
- Comment on GitHub Desktop or Git CLI? 11 months ago:
Maybe not a GUI but using a TUI (lazygit) I am certain that I can do everything faster than you could ever do using the CLI. Tbf if a GUI Tool had the same shortcuts it would also be faster.

- Comment on OpenAI brings Sam Altman back as CEO less than a week after he was fired by board 11 months ago:
Are there some (paid or not, doesn’t matter) great alternatives to OpenAI based solutions to ChatGPT 4 and Copilot?
- Comment on If you live in the EU - you may also be faced with this Meta prompt. Info in text. 11 months ago:
That option is still there for me (in addition to the new option to pay) in the Instagram app, in the settings there is an ad settings option which sends you to the website where you can configure that.
The circled setting, the other one is the one at the top of the list
- Comment on If you live in the EU - you may also be faced with this Meta prompt. Info in text. 11 months ago:
Isn’t this just an additional paid option and the ad option is what everyone already had and everyone outside the EU still has?
- Comment on Bungie CEO Claims Layoffs Were Due to Destiny 2 Underperformance - IGN 1 year ago:
The CEO has to go because they failed to deliver? Right? I mean that’s why they get paid so much, to take responsibility. Now they will face the consequences of their failure! No?
