- Comment on Noncoders are using AI to prompt their ideas into reality. They call it 'vibe coding.' 1 week ago:
An upgrade is that you don’t learn anything?
- Comment on List of Alternatives to Adobe Programs 2 weeks ago:
Enshitification by owners of Audacity including telemetry. They eventually backed down, but that was after Tenacity forked off it and people started using and improving it.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company's code was written by AI | TechCrunch 3 weeks ago:
He used the word written by software. This is ambiguous and doesn’t mean AI, for example, using annotations for variables and generating the getters and setters would count. Right click and create function body for interface function definitions also.
They’re exaggerating to pretend their AI is more useful than it is.
- Comment on Microsoft rolls Windows Recall out to the public nearly a year after announcing it 3 weeks ago:
AMD or NVidia?
Most games that I play work well on Linux. Anti-cheat stuff can be an exception though so best to ensure what you enjoy works.
- Comment on Tax cut for Musk, Bezos and other tech billionaires on the table, Starmer confirms 5 weeks ago:
Probably keen to represent GSK, AstraZeneca and financial services companies. Though to hell with the rest of us.
- Comment on The rise of far-right political support among the rich is partly a diversion, so that people start getting more upset at the far right than at being exploited by the rich 1 month ago:
No. It’s a plan to pull working class to voting against their class interests. It’s a conveyer into right wing voting.
- Comment on When a zoomer/boomer talks to me 1 month ago:
Why are racist slurs on Lemmy. This isn’t Reddit or Xitter.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 1 month ago:
YMMV. I’ve seen issues in migration from Gitea to Codeberg. Always test first.
- Comment on Life isn't easy if your last name is 'Null' as it still breaks database entries the world over 2 months ago:
“True”

But maybe could be a good place for furry dating.
- Comment on US and UK refuse to sign AI safety declaration at summit 3 months ago:
Perhaps due to the same reason UK avoided tariff threats.
Spineless leader. UK is unfortunately a lapdog in this special relationship.
- Comment on Apple Maps now shows the Gulf of America 3 months ago:
In the UK, it says both. One above the other.
Spineless and pathetic.
- Comment on The Philippine vice president publicly threatens to have the president assassinated 5 months ago:
I agree with you on that.
It’s very different in western countries to poorer countries where guns are readily accessible. I’m talking more in regards to suppliers than consumers. I don’t believe consumers should be punished. They should get help, but ultimately you cannot always treat gangs and suppliers with love and hugs when they’d happily ruin lives for money.
Look at Mexico, Columbia, El Salvador and the problems they have dealing with drug gangs. Legalising world wide would reduce those gangs power considerably.
- Comment on The Philippine vice president publicly threatens to have the president assassinated 5 months ago:
There is allegedly some substance in it. Folks I’ve talked to in the Philippines who had relatives on drugs said things did improve massively and many stopped.

Rectal examination?
Thumbs up!

Yet…
- Comment on Manjaro is experimenting with **opt-out telemetry | Hacker News (More like op-out spying) 5 months ago:
Well Debian doesn’t have a rolling distro, does it?
It was something that underpinned your choice and now it’s not. I’m not sure why you said gotta find when you already knew the answer.
- Comment on Manjaro is experimenting with **opt-out telemetry | Hacker News (More like op-out spying) 5 months ago:
OpenSuse Tumbleweed. Reliable and up to date.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
He is an oxygen supply absolutist. Just don’t annoy him.
- Comment on AMD rakes in cash with best quarterly revenue ever amid datacenter business rise, but gaming business craters 6 months ago:
Are people exiting PC gaming or do they already have gaming PCs with competent hardware?
I suspect the market is saturated.
- Comment on Blessica Blimpson 6 months ago:
I don’t think you can “knock up” a guy.
- Comment on Pstpstpst 6 months ago:
What is this to do with science? Really drags down the content quality.
- Comment on New Map Shows Community Broadband Networks Are Exploding In U.S. 7 months ago:
Oh, I thought they meant literally exploding?!
