• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump Says He Wants No Wind Turbines Built During Administration⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s pretty dangerous. Four years of no projects being build could kill an industry and drive away the skilled people. By the time a sane government gets established again the companies may be gone and people would be otherwise engaged, so a quick bounce back wouldn’t really be possible either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solidigm pulls out of consumer SSD market with discontinuation of drives⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah man, that’s a shame. The P41 was one I remembered for being a surprisingly good value despite being a drive with good performance. I never had the chance of buying one, since I don’t have a free slot, and it wasn’t worth replacing my existing drive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If me and a bunch of my lemmy friends got on a yacht. Went into international waters what could we get away with legally and what would still be illegal?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Laws don’t magically stop working just because you’re out of jurisdiction.

  Actually I would say that most do. Extraterritorial jurisdiction is the exception, not the rule. Many countries apply it for cases of Genocide and War Crimes for example. You are right though that the US does apply a lot of its laws on US persons or vessels in international waters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon worker who was ran over and shot during NO attack denied medical leave.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s an NO attack?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DOOM® CAPTCHA⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried going straight, but after a while I noticed there’s actually an invisible pinky over there.

  Also is the sound too high, or is it just me not rememberering right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DOOM® CAPTCHA⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  RNG in doom, that’s illegal :D

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The writers have run out of ideas⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First of all thanks for the picture, it looks so good! Much better!

  Secondly, aren’t the flames and smoke in slightly different positions? Perhaps there exist multiple pictures, or a video, from this angle?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's... normal⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on who’s writing the laws. Sometimes crime is moral.

  With the resurgence of chauvinist parties who ignore human rights this is important to keep in mind at the moment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Swiss Experiment Will Place Solar Panels Between Train Tracks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We just discussed this a month ago in the Technology@lemmy.world community: discuss.tchncs.de/post/23083174

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pants⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on the day I’d say. Option 1 if they’re feeling row major, option 2 for column major days

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jewel Beetles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Besides “AI and facetuned images” from OP, another supernormal stimulus that comes to mind is fat anime tiddies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patient gamers, what are your favorite OSTs?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Rome Total War

  Anno 1602

  Stronghold

  I suspect I’m driven by nostalgia and by literally hundreds of hours of repeat exposure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Summary⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Bilbo Baggins My Balls”

  Good group name though!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linus Torvalds reckons AI is ‘90% marketing and 10% reality’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That makes sense. He’s old enough and close enough thematically to have seen a few of these tech hype cycles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fitness app Strava gives away location of Biden, Trump and other leaders, French newspaper says.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’d think the secret service were better at opsec than random soldiers getting their helicopters blown up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Club Penguin Experience got breached.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty good disclosure text. There are much bigger companies that don’t manage to be this clear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IFIXIT: Victory Is Sweet - We Can Now Fix McDonald’s Ice Cream Machines⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Repairing things helps reduce the endless resource expediture and trash creation. Ice cream machines are just a random example. As you can read in the article they were going for much more, and more significant stuff, but got denied.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IFIXIT: Victory Is Sweet - We Can Now Fix McDonald’s Ice Cream Machines⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah this bit is a shame. The exception only covers bypassing DMCA protections to fix your own stuff not distributing the tooling for it.

  It is still a crime for iFixit to sell a tool to fix ice cream machines, and that’s a real shame. The ruling doesn’t change the underlying statute making it illegal to share or sell tools that bypass software locks. This leaves most of the repair work inaccessible to the average person, since the technical barriers remain high. Without these tools, this exemption is largely theoretical for many small businesses that don’t have in-house repair experts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not allowed to work from home⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know, that’s a lot better than many people that have been forced into 5 days a week or similar bullshit

  I hope for your sake this isn’t just their first test followed by an escalating series of demands :-/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft has a big Windows 10 problem, and only one year to solve it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I still got a Ryzen 1600, that would be just fine for when my flatmate needs a PC for working remotely, but his company reqires Windows 11 :-(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit says it is not covered by new Online Safety Code as it has moved its jurisdiction to the Netherlands⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A move from Ireland to the Netherlands doesn’t really change much in that regard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About today's downtime⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought it would be a server issue, on the status page all services on H5 had the same status. Thanks for the quick reaction!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So tired to see Elon Musk in my home page EVERY DAY⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t see him until your post, so thanks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A decline in arable land⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why does Ireland have such a small sliver of areable land? I thought it was “the green island”?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server dealer keeps hitting at Elon Musk for $61 million bill — Wiwynn sues X for unpaid IT infrastructure products⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They ship servers to customers, don’t think they have access anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server dealer keeps hitting at Elon Musk for $61 million bill — Wiwynn sues X for unpaid IT infrastructure products⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The article sounds to me like they were selling hardware, not providing a service.

  Checking their website confirms this is what they usually offer.

  Wiwynn may be unique in the market with its ability to provide solutions all the way up to L11 rack integration services – from the board, to the system to the complete rack. Wiwynn has the facilities to deliver systems that have been tested and validated prior to shipping, reducing the amount of time that customers need to spend to assemble, test, and validate prior to a rack installation going live.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10001⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The four bit sections of eight bit bytes are called nibbles, you know because nibbles are small bites

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10001⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  RFC 791 refers to an 8 bit byte as an octet

  French people do too. On second hand websites in Switzerland you always see that some disks are listed for e.g. 250 Go and others for 250 GB, depending on the first language of the seller.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The 1900s⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My dad told me recently, when he started practicing medicine the old people with heart failures he was treating were often born in the late 1800s, but now those are all dead, and the people he’s treating are more likely to have a birth years that are around 1940-1950. Which is also starting to become uncomfortably close to his own, 1960.
