Yeah, I’d expect the bloat to hit when there is a boost in SSD sizes. Right now I think the biggest consumer-grade SSDs are 8TB and are still rather expensive.
- Comment on In North Korea, your phone secretly takes screenshots every 5 minutes for government surveillance 2 days ago:
Yeah, there is no reason for me to be connecting my TV to the internet. I use a HTPC which is much better for streaming than the TV’s built-in apps.

So if an MMA fighter starts kicking your ass, you aren’t allowed to use a weapon to defend yourself because they are unarmed?

This seems like the basis of Altered Carbon.
- Comment on Germany Is Using AI to Erase Pro-Palestinian Speech 3 days ago:
Israel lost the PR war. They need to accept this and just move the fuck on rather than continuing to dig in their heels. Defending genocide and trying to suppress opposition is a really bad look.

Better get to work laying cable.
- Comment on The plan for nationwide fiber internet might be upended for Starlink 5 days ago:
Light in a fiber travels much more slowly than in vacuum — light in fiber travels at around 67% the speed of light in vacuum
I’m a complete laymen when it comes to this, but this sounds like it would pertain to latency rather than bandwidth. I expect that fiber would have a much higher data capacity than satellite.

I love these sorts of conversations.

Wrong sub, but I agree with you wholeheartedly Every single word of it.

Shifting the weight on our feet really helps
This is why some people use wobble boards with standing desks. Makes a big difference.

There’s sci-fi show (I think it’s “Foundation”) where passengers have to be sedated for their high-speed space travel. Not teleportation, but I think it’s approaching light speed.
Some alien race can handle it, so they are used as pilots and crew of the ships.

I hate air travel so much. I have non-local family so deal with a single r/t per year, but that’s about my limit.
- Comment on Mom sues porn sites (Including Chaturbate, Jerkmate, Superporn and Hentaicity) for noncompliance with Kansas age assurance law; Teen can no longer enjoy life after mom caught him visiting Chaturbate 1 week ago:
This is one of the top objectives of project 2025
And people actually voted for this. Talk about a huge self-own. One of many, like that farmer complaining about having to milk the cows now because the immigrant laborers are gone.
If there is a ban, the amount of complaining from men who voted for Trump and now can’t watch it is going to be off the charts.

This was literally the first thing I thought when I read the headline.

Can they start building affordable housing and go around the manipulated housing market?
- Comment on ‘It’s real y’all’: People are sharing their tariff receipts, and my wallet is not ready for what’s coming 2 weeks ago:
No “/s” needed, Trump said that Wal-Mart should eat the tariffs.
- Comment on ‘It’s real y’all’: People are sharing their tariff receipts, and my wallet is not ready for what’s coming 2 weeks ago:
What this idiot has missed is that American doesn’t have the means to make these goods.
Regardless of one’s opinions on tariffs themselves, this was such a stupid, hamfisted way of going about it. It’s almost like phasing in tariffs incrementally over a period of, say 10 years, would allow for adaption and for production to get spooled up.
I use “10 years” as an example, an economics person would be better qualified on the specifics.

I’m assuming the GF would break up with OP over it. Which is itself a big red flag.
- Comment on LibreOffice: We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues 4 weeks ago:
I use OnlyOffice, but I’m not particularly discerning with my suite of office software and only use it for lightweight tasks.
