  Weak against SR, better have levitate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨France will replace Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom, Webex and others with its own sovereign video conferencing application "Visio" for public officials⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No mention of Capgemini on the announcement, there’s a chance this will actually ship!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft gave FBI a set of BitLocker encryption keys to unlock suspects' laptops: Reports | TechCrunch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re doing this because there’s demand (with actually, non malicious genuine needs), and the feature is clearly advertised AFAIK.

  It’s not some evil conspiracy. Microsoft does enough shitty things without us needing to blame them for their users’ shitty OpSec.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Swipe was acquired by Microsoft, if you wanted a reason to go back :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bose open-sources its SoundTouch home theater smart speakers ahead of end-of-life⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This type of laws already exist in some cases, but realistically no one knows that the company won’t just go bankrupt in 5 years. Open sourcing things is a “reasonable” last resort option, or rather, the only viable one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Made in space? Start-up brings factory in orbit one step closer to reality⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Indeed, as a state owned company, Boeing is really inefficient

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaker Who Apple Is Suing Says 'Screw It,' Here's the Foldable iPhone Early⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve obviously never shopped for women’s clothes. Even sport shorts don’t have pockets, it’s absolutely ridiculous

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft wants to replace its entire C and C++ codebase, perhaps by 2030⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If they rely on UB at all, then this won’t work. At they you get a compile time error, but more likely your rust program will do weird stuff with memory. And given how much people rely on compilers “acting nice” when it comes to aliasing (something rust does not fuck around with), I wouldn’t hold my breathe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨G-Assist is ‘real’: NVIDIA unveils NitroGen, open-source AI model that can play 1000+ games for you⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This seems like a very good use of the tech. Fuzzy testing is difficult to do, and it’s all about scale

  Another option is, there a more than one country on earth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol sausage and ketchup, let’s pretend you didn’t mention Currywurst.

  Spätzle might be the one exception, although the Swiss make it better.

  Sausages, I don’t get your fetishization of it here. A random merguez from the local Arab place is still better than these.

  And bread… Yeah, a billion sorts of it, still worse than a random French bakery’s baguette.

  Germans never wonder why there’s no German restaurants abroad, go figure

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  These people eat the local version of it. I personally like to go to MacDonald’s in France. Better than any German dish I can find here. Yet I shudder when I recall what that crap tasted like in the USA

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When everyone but you thinks your food is shit, it probably is.

  See e.g. Germany

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of the war?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of Ukrainian refugees are native Russian speaker. I wouldn’t overthink things if I were you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of the war?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  OK Adolph…?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump: I said to somebody the other day, am I better politician or construction/real estate person? They didn't know how to answer that question. I am not sure how to answer either⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for explaining it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looks Like We Can Finally Kiss the Metaverse Goodbye⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering they developed the framework everybody builds upon nowadays, I doubt it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans when someone try to sell them air⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ugh? Americans worship Germans to an embarrassing level.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You seriously misunderstand what the acronyms you’re using refer to. I’d suggest some reading before commenting, next time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People who say 'the rich get richer, the lazy live for free, and the middle class pays for it all' don't realize how expensive it is to be rich and how close middle class is to being below the poverty line.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The GP earning 6 figures for prescribing boomer cunts opioids is clearly in the same social class as the construction worker whose life expectancy is below the retirement age.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨God ****** dammit, here we go again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If there’s one thing I’ve always been wary of, it’s the password manager browser extensions. And I’ve been proven right. Don’t be lazy, it takes 30 extra seconds to do it manually.

  Pishing detection is nice though, I’ll admit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨God ****** dammit, here we go again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you use aliases for all services, it makes it slightly harder to automate trying one leaked email on another site, since the hacker needs to add the new alias on the other service.

  No one is going through of all these credentials manually, so any extra obscurity can actually bring you security in a pinch. Although if you have different passwords this shouldn’t matter much…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Andrew Windsor could face private prosecution, Republic says⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing they own should be theirs. How’s the boot tasting today?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ok, boomer⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  MAGAs and boomers are different groups (that’s why the words are spelt differently)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't fix the problem just change the parameters⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Learning how to write with a pen is a waste of time…?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Huge internet outage live blog: Amazon, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max and more experiencing issues⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  99% of the population doesn’t have IOT in their houses

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨last chance to look at me hector⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck off with your gaslighting, you’re obviously one of those “pro-ukraine surrendering”. If it quacks like a tankie…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Climate goals go up in smoke as US datacenters turn to coal⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re the ecofascist yet you’re the one saying “you’ll shit in the mud and you’ll like it”.

  Birthrates lower partially thanks to higher standard of living, which are not sustainable for 7+ billions people.

  Not that I think LLMs are going to help in any way, but every time someone mentions overpopulation, all the counter arguments I see are loads of anti system rhetoric with nothing to show for it.

  You think soviet Russia was/current China is sustainable?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Those who are hosting on bare metal: What is stopping you from using Containers or VM's? What are you self hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Assuming you run Synapse, that uses more than 1.5GB RAM just idling, your system has at the very least 16GB of RAM… Hardly what I’d call “very tiny”
