- Comment on have you ever been given a warning or suspension for using profane language at work? 2 weeks ago:
Work in Germany, both in some retail jobs as a student, as well as a dev, sometimes in rather ‘fancy’ office environments. No one ever cared, though I only ever cursed about a situation, never a person.
- Comment on Qualcomm wants to buy Intel 1 month ago:
I want to buy the whole of Switzerland.
- Comment on Wait a minute, we've been going about this all the wrong way! 1 month ago:
It took them years to prepare that operation. It was against Hezbollah, not Hamas, because they saw them as the bigger threat.
The war in Gazah is barbaric, but the sensible immediate alternative would have been a very targeted operation to find and rescue the hostages, not something like this.
- Comment on Student dorm does not allow wifi routers 2 months ago:
Is the VR streaming in the Local net (PC to Headset)? Just run the WiFi router without plugging it into the wall. Connect only the pc and the headset.
Also, appart from that, to use more wired devices, maybe use an unmanaged switch. Don’t think that does anything forbidden here.

“Drinnen saßen stehend Leute, schweigend ins Gespräch vertieft”
There’s a whole bunch of such surrealist art, and while me being a rather lazy student for most things art history means I have no idea whether there’s a better name for it, or how connected the artists behind them are, I still tend to find them rather fascinating.

Had one of those land on my leg in Japan. Seemed chill. Guess I was lucky it didn’t sting.

900 days in my ass
Seems a bit long, but I’m not one to complain.

Hey, Will Wood, nice.
- Comment on What are your thoughts on Warframe? 2 months ago:
I play it about once a year to check for new story content. It’s fun. Grind is annoying, but if you don’t want a crazy build, you can mostly ignore it.
- Comment on I'm sorry, little one 3 months ago:
Would you link one? Because the only things I know of are the small coral accelerators that aren’t really comparable, and specialised data centre stuff you need to request quotes for to even get a price, from companies that probably aren’t much interested in seeing one direct to customer.

It sounds like you don’t necessarily like the idea of using a container (I tend to use podman, but most guides are for docker, so that’d probably be easier for you). From my experience, containerising things actually makes things a lot easier, especially in the long run, and getting started is a lot easier than it seems. You can probably find a ready-made guide to set up a plex or jellyfin container on Debian.

Your instance is the address behind the @. So yours is lemmy.world, his is, fittingly, yiffit.net.
- Comment on Rabbit data breach: all r1 responses ever given can be downloaded 4 months ago:
I wouldn’t even say that. Even if they had a truly unique LLM that ran partially locally with a custom co-processor, Android might still have been a good choice. It’s just hard to beat an open source base that’s already compatible with most mobile hardware, and relatively easy to find Devs for.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 4 will be delisted from sale this December, but thankfully remain playable 4 months ago:
For games like this it’s almost always licenses for cars or music. They probably weigh the cost off renewal vs likely future sales.
- Comment on Rabbit data breach: all r1 responses ever given can be downloaded 4 months ago:
Using Android as a base was honestly the most reasonable thing they did. No reason to reinvent the wheel. What they made with it is admittedly really shit, though.
- Comment on Why we don't have 128-bit CPUs 4 months ago:
Huh, I’ve been in that train. Sudden, random hit of Nostalgia.
- Comment on Terraforming 4 months ago:
I am very much pro space exploration, but the current plans many companies present for Mars colonies just seem like they would add very little value, while bringing tremendous danger and strife for the inhabitants, should anything ever be built.
I think we need to separate legitimate interest in space and related technology from bullshit marketing with scifi flavour.
- Comment on Schools won't be allowed to teach children that they can change their gender ID, reports say 5 months ago:
Because telling them “I’m not allowed to answer that question.” isn’t going to make them look it up themselves anyway. I mean, you could lie to them, but I can’t imagine that being a popular policy.
Even if the sentiment behind this wasn’t so horrid, this is just stupid.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey claims Bluesky is 'repeating all the mistakes' he made at Twitter 5 months ago:
Can confirm, my brother is a furry and on bluesky.
- Comment on Head of PR at China's biggest search engine Baidu apologised after her comments glorifying a work-till-you-drop culture sparked public outcry 5 months ago:
Kinda sounds like her life’s miserable, and like she wants to make those of the people under her even more miserable.
- Comment on the struggle 6 months ago:
Yeah, but the point of all the criticism is that the test also reflects mood changes and recent experiences in ways that a proper tool to measure a person’s personality shouldn’t. I am not saying that people can’t change, just that the result of the test is rather superficial.
- Comment on the struggle 6 months ago:
This made me try that test again, and I got INTP-A. Got something different half a year ago, so yeah.
- Comment on Rabbit R1 is Just an Android App 6 months ago:
Was that in question? I thought it was clear from the beginning that it does pretty much everything in the cloud.

So you’re from Estonia?
- Comment on ChatGPT provides false information about people, and OpenAI can’t correct it 6 months ago:
Uh, I understand the sentiment, but the model doesn’t know anything. And it’s legit really hard to differentiate between factual things and random bullshit it made up.
- Comment on Edited in Signal 6 months ago:
They seem to point at the qualcomm privacy policy to show what’s being collected. It does seem strange that they’re not analysing the packets themselves, especially since claiming the data is unencrypted, and the article is quite sensationalist. In the end, they’re trying to sell their very expensive (one might dare saying overpriced) Pixels with preinstalled Graphene.
It’s still good to keep in mind that qualcomm seems to be collecting personalised data, which they’d likely hand over to US intelligence or law enforcement if requested to, and that at least some custom roms come with the proprietary packages that facilitate this.
- Comment on Edited in Signal 6 months ago:
I’m not talking about the CPU itself. If I remember correctly, phones with Snapdragon CPUs usually have packages from qualcomm installed, and there have been reports about them sending data to qualcomm.
- Comment on Edited in Signal 6 months ago:
And if it’s one with a Snapdragon CPU, the NSA probably knows too. And while China is rather Authoritarian, and I’d be worried if I lived there, currently I’m more worried about surveillance by a government that has more influence on the country I live in, and likely shares data with my countiries intelligence services.
- Comment on Just got texted a job offer. You guys think it's legit? 6 months ago:
Not great, still better than SMS.
