Tech Force? Not necessarily a bad idea

Oh, it’s AI again.

Those have too much of the doom and gloom. I want juuust enough to know what’s happening, but not to know every single thing that’s happening if you know what I mean.

I meant funny in a relatable way tbf. Like an experience most of us have lived through so we can joke about it.
Now if a millionaire posted this to make fun of us poors, it would not be funny. But this was posted by a fellow lemming, so probably not a millionaire. Context matters.

I mean hack comedians still do it I guess, but most of them don’t make it past the open mic stage. Or they improve their craft and stop doing it.

It’s not that the water itself has flavour, but the solution does have some. There’s usually minerals in most water. Distilled water being an exception.

Especially when tv, internet and people speak about USA and Trump 24/7
But I don’t watch TV and Lemmy IS my Internet these days.
People in my friends group stopped posting news stuff because they assume everyone’s seen everything already lol

“What is the deal with…”
Is it just me, or is that a really hack thing to do in standup comedy? lol

This is functional, but looks ugly as sin and I don’t see how it’s better than an integrated stovetop? Those are also usually separate from the oven so you’re still good on the oven if the stovetop dies.

Going back to leather probably.

That’s not unique to Taiwan. They have other issues like looming threat of invasion among others.
- Comment on Copilot could soon live inside Windows 11's File Explorer, as Microsoft tests Chat with Copilot in Explorer, not just in a separate app 1 day ago:
I have a new naming strategy for Microsoft.
They renamed Office 365 to Copilot 365, right?
But there are so many other cool businessy numbers! I propose this:
Explorer becomes Copilot 360
Edge becomes Copilot24 (24 suffix is/was very common for websites in the 00s here in Estonia, auto24 is our biggest used car marketplace to this day for an example)
Calculator becomes Copilot Pi
Xbox app becomes Copilot Series X
And the Microsoft Store becomes Copilot One X

Down last few months, but overall strong upwards trend over the last few years.

- Comment on Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are cowards - X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it? 1 day ago:
And “completely unqualified” in this case means a motivated 12 year old with an Internet connection would do significantly better.
- Comment on Trump: The U.S. will 'now' start hitting Mexican land targets 2 days ago:
Trump just cut food stamps for millions.
The democrats will be blamed for this. And immigrants. And LGBT folks.
It’s unfortunate, but I don’t see MAGA folks ever blaming Trump for anything he does.
- Comment on Trump: The U.S. will 'now' start hitting Mexican land targets 2 days ago:
Is it? About half of your state will still cheer for him unfortunately. And so many other states too.
I could see some blue coastal states on either coast exiting and starting their own union at this rate though. Seems more likely than any sort of revolution.
- Comment on Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince talks about Italy fines while praising JD Vance and Elon Musk 2 days ago:
Technically they’re being fined for not complying with Italy’s demand for censorship. So he’s not entirely in the wrong here.
But then he praised Vance and Musk…

Pfp makes no sense though. Why does profile get two letters if it’s the same length as picture? Just say an actual word or call it pp.
- Comment on PFP Evolution 3 days ago:
Profile Picture. PP.

- Comment on PFP Evolution 3 days ago:
Yes.
Also I don’t know what the f in pfp is. If it’s supposed to be profile picture, then the acronym should clearly be pp.

Turn based strategy! Also Paradox RTSes are pausable so almost like TBS if you want it to be.
- Comment on PFP Evolution 4 days ago:
Not cozy or puzzle oriented, but Baldur’s Gate 3 turns into turn-based mode in combat. Pretty sure the same applies for other Larian games too, but I haven’t tried them.
- Comment on Dell brings back XPS laptops — ditches the capacitive touch bar, adds 1Hz display option, and upgrades 14 and 16-inch models 4 days ago:
I mean ideally I wish nobody would give Trump money, but I believe it was understood at the time that if you’re running a large tech company and you want it to still exist after the Trump inauguration, you give him a million dollars as a present. Hence why they all did it, million dollars each.
Kinda shit situation to be in where the incoming president can just fuck everything up for your trillion dollar company out of spite, so the million dollar bribe suddenly seems like a literal cost of doing business, no different from taxes or material costs.
Of course as someone who is NOT running a trillion dollar company, it would’ve been more hilarious to see them all reject Trump and then squirm.

And the worst part is, Apple has a lot more influence over software on MacOS than Dell does over software on Windows. Meaning Apple was able to influence at least some (though not most by any measure) 3rd party developers to make the touchbar context aware. I somehow doubt Dell had any such luck, so it would’ve been even worse than the Apple touchbar which was already shit.
- Comment on Dell brings back XPS laptops — ditches the capacitive touch bar, adds 1Hz display option, and upgrades 14 and 16-inch models 4 days ago:
It’s not JUST because they’re copying Apple, it’s because there’s no SO-DIMM LPDDR and LPDDR uses less power (Low Power DDR).
With CAMM2 being an actual standardized thing that is fairly thin (though the modules do take up more area than SO-DIMMs) AND supports LPDDR (in slightly smaller modules than regular DDR CAMM2), we might yet get back our user-replaceable RAM. As for batteries - never have they been truly non-replaceable, but of course quick swaps aren’t a thing for many laptops these days. Almost not a bad thing if you consider how often the battery latch fails on laptops with quickly replaceable batteries.
