- Comment on What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers? 1 week ago:
If everyone on your team of 6 is 20% faster, you don’t necessarily need the 6th person. Maybe you put that towards more work, but that’s not very American, these days. Cut costs, cash out, fuck 'em
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
At this point, I’m not sure I would trust the truthfulness of that claim. The hard-core refusal to do so up until this point has been both surprising and unsettling, to say the least.
I would consider it, but being conpletely honest, this whole event has really soured me on it. I probably just start looking outside of lemmy sometime in the coming weeks 🤷♂️
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
They should try just using it for development instead of forcing out tankie propaganda, then.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
That’s a perfectly sensible position, but the money doesn’t go just to you.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 1 week ago:
I’ll be honest, I thought Plex Pass was always a requirement for this 😅
- Comment on China has world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor thanks to ‘strategic stamina’ 3 weeks ago:
I don’t mean to be a pessimist, but we’ll see how it lasts and scales 😅 it’s certainly promising, but 2MW also isn’t much. I’m curious how large they can scale single reactors, and how close they can safely be to populations - one of the problems with nuclear always ends up being transporting the energy (usually quite far away) once you’ve generated it.
- Comment on Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke tells employees to prove AI can’t do the job before asking for resources. 5 weeks ago:
Honestly, AI coding assistants (as in the ones working like auto-complete in the code editor) are very close to useless unless maybe you work in one of those languages like Java that are extremely verbose and lack expressiveness.
Hard disagree. They’re not writing anything on their own, no, but my stack saves at least 75% of my time, and I work full-stack across pieces in 5 different languages.
Cursor + Claude was the latest big shift for me, maybe two months ago? If you haven’t tried them, it was a huge bump in utility
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 5 weeks ago:
In the short-term (0-6mo, maybe less): nothing really changes.
Medium-term (maybe up to a year or two): you’re looking at real potential to get infected with --who-knows-what–. Hard to say how long it would take or how widespread it would be.
Longer term: massive, massive security hole. Microsoft has probably even patched a few major things by now, but there will always be more
- Comment on If you could add, remove, or alter one single bodily function, what would it be? 5 weeks ago:
It’s the only thing stopping the people in charge of our society from mandating 16-hour days
- Comment on Nintendo is Bringing Us Kicking and Screaming Into the $80 Game Era with the Switch 2 5 weeks ago:
Bringing you, maybe. I’m out ✌️ I’m not giving into the pre-planned reduction to 70/80, either.
- Comment on It was nicer when Duke Nukem Forever was famous for never coming out 1 month ago:
Just to be totally clear, it was not real when I commented this 😂🤣
- Comment on It was nicer when Duke Nukem Forever was famous for never coming out 1 month ago:
They announced the release date earlier today! 😉
- Comment on 90s band alignment chart 1 month ago:
Idk, Tool feels about right? Maybe slightly more angry and slightly less sad
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Keep the McDonalds position and maybe one line of description, but it feels like you’re reaching for length or something. I promise nobody is going to read the bullets under the position
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Nobody cares about the bullet points under McDonalds - get rid of them and use the space to describe your projects or other experience more.
- Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme 1 month ago:
If the contents of my friends’ group chat got leaked… people would just think we’re fucking idiots, not terrible people.
Good work, Derek. Be better, losers in that chat.
- Comment on Purchased an Osborne MPV1024 monitor and it just works 1 month ago:
The power button is stuck on, and it does an occasional unsettling arc sound and the image slightly distorts for a millisecond. I believe the latter is fairly common among old CRTs but I don’t know much more than that.
Sounds like a degauss!
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Sounds like it’d be relatively easy to get a loan or investor with that kind of ROI. Seven years is nothing if it’s consistent and safe.
- Comment on It's weird that a room with just a toilet and sink is called a "half bath", when it in fact has zero bathtubs. 1 month ago:
Haven’t paid enough attention to know how they list multiple 1/2 baths but pretty sure they don’t add up like regular fractions…
They’d either list them separately or as a whole and then clarify. E.g. "two full- and two half-baths"or something like “four bathrooms - two full”
- Comment on Is it possible to eat a toxic amount of culinary herbs/spices? 2 months ago:
All at once, absolutely, but it’s going to take a LOT of most things. Theoretically, anything is poisonous if you have too much of it - we even get oxygen poisoning by breathing air that is too rich in oxygen for too long.
- Comment on I'm Tired of Pretending Tech is Making the World Better 2 months ago:
…but just like you chided the person you replied to, none of that is true or real. The restaurant that forces you to use their app doesn’t exist, and it’s not the only restaurant in town. None of that is even because of technology, it’s because of capitalism.
- Comment on What are the democrats actually doing to help? 2 months ago:
It turns out that when you take all of the power to do anything away from someone, they can’t do anything 🤷♂️ who could have possibly seen this coming?
- Comment on Will AI Startups End Up Like Blockchain Startups? 2 months ago:
It’s less of a bubble than the block chain - by a really wide margin, the tech itself is already more useful itself than the block chain ever even pretended to be moving towards - but it IS still a bubble.
Some are grifters and will move to the next fad, some simply don’t have good enough ideas and will fail, others won’t be able to achieve their good ideas as funding slows.
- Comment on Amazon is changing what is written in books 2 months ago:
In Stallman’s particular case he even substantiated his view on pedophilia with very good arguments
No, he didn’t, because none exist. Don’t defend pedophiles.
- Comment on Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded? 2 months ago:
Lemmy sure hasn’t learned from that mistake tho. I see many on Lemmy just outright making fun of anyone who didn’t vote for Harris–even if they voted a third party.
Yeah, I’m going to continue bashing people who voted for fascism. I don’t care why they did it, they had all the information and now our government owns us. Congrats, you got what you voted for. I hope you enjoy the hell you helped create before you get sent to the real one, bitch.
- Comment on Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded? 2 months ago:
Nobody has a problem with Conservatism, it’s the people actively supporting Nazis that don’t deserve a place. You didn’t vote for someone that’s currently supporting nazis, by any chance, did you?
- Comment on Why was there a pro-Hitler, Holocaust-denying ad on X? 2 months ago:
I mean… have you not seen the photo ops and donations from him explicitly supporting nazis? 🤷♂️ not sure what to tell you, bud, but you can believe your eyes
- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 2 months ago:
Who does, then? Google?
- Comment on Why was there a pro-Hitler, Holocaust-denying ad on X? 2 months ago:
Meta? Zuck has been extremely supportive of the nazis in power so far
- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 2 months ago:
You can either face reality or not, literally nobody cares about your opinion on the matter. Many people who don’t join lemmy say this, that is simple fact.
