Bold of you to assume i dont use it daily; it helps to be autistic and need to explain complex thoughts in a single sentence.

Anyone with any amount of tech knowledge or tutorial following can get into THE flock camera system.

There very much are people who view music as background noise and only listen to walmart radio-esque drivel. I remember hearing that an acquaintance listened to “whatevers on the front page of spotify” and has never made a playlist or noted a song/band as better or worse than any other.

I honestly love this idea unironically because its not really 1.0 until the bugs are gone and all desired features are present. If there are ever 2.0 plans, those are actually 1.0 plans and you were further behind than you thought

Once. It takes time and energy once, because its a new thing. This is true of all new things. If you want to go to a new library, you have to learn the route or address, drive there, get a new card, and find the books/places things are. The dewey decimal system is the same, but no ones really using it and the help desk is likely in a different area. So, with installing a new operating system, you need to know how to install an operating system, follow the instructions, and then use the operating system. Its almost exactly the same effort. Some people will need to learn how to drive, or the bus route, or whatever, but thats expected.

Sloppy.

Hey jackass, how are they supposed to pay you if they dont have a job?

I miss tutorials on the start screen. Also minecraft books are a good idea, but lack the “hey btw youre gonna get busy and drop this game for 6 months and have no idea what your goals are. Care to take a note?” My solution is a captains log after video game sessions, but i forget sometimes

For free??? In this economy??

Exactly. Navigating Windows is a skill. Navigating linux is a skill. Navigating Macos is a skill. This argument that linux in its current state is user unfriendly ignores that all operating systems are unfriendly, and my argument is that linux tends to be more intuitive because of learned mistakes from Windows and Macos.

Yeah but 4x8 workdays are gonna be just as productive as 5x8, if you factor in general mood improvements. Using AI as a scapegoat is fine, i guess

Proof that gamers have no spine (once again. See also Switch 2 and PS5 sales) and that online discourse holds no prediction of real world value.

People keep saying this, but windows and macos are not user friendly. Theyre user hostile. “No, you cant do that unless you perform a ritual.” “Want to download something? Spend 4 hours typing random terminal commands to maybe get a package manager thats out of date 9/10 times or good luck googling.” “Want to change where your taskbar is? Too bad.” “Want to do literally anything? Every setting is a coinflip between vibecoded settings app, windows 7 legacy menus, or windows xp legacy menus. The latter two work better (and the former is just the latter obfuscated) but are hidden in secret menus. Good luck!” My 80 year old grandma has no issues at all with her CachyOS/kde/Limine installation, but i used to get calls every other weekend for her windows 11 laptop. Also, if i need to do anything, i can just ssh into her computer without issue. Ill admit that quick assist is way better here, but the point is that i get significantly less calls because KDE is just intuitive.

Tldr; socialism is the best internal system, when you dont have a neighbor you’re willing to steal resources from to tip the scales

I certainly felt that, at one point. You can get over it, you just have to accept that 1) you were young and dumb and 2) shes probably not all-that now. For instance, mine works for lockheed martin so i think i dodged a bullet, ethically speaking. …how do i know that? This interview is over.

If you eat it or make a tea from it, you die :3

Great question! Its important to always check your sources – a smart guy like you knows that. Of course, the source is that i made that shit the fuck up. Please insert ten (10) – and this is the critical part – virgin giraffes.

Is this it? My first Lemmy inside joke? I feel honored

The issue is that their empathy, like most people’s in history, extends to their immediate circle and no further. Once he became affected, he realized Trump doesnt care. Everything else was a victory in the name of GuyWhoHasntWrongedHimSpecifically because He said so

Also its kind of difficult to put a 250gb game on a disk. Id be very surprised if the disk held any info whatsoever nowadays past a license.

Everything they can do, a go-pro or adjacent camera would work without issue and with less ambiguity. The only reason you could possibly have for using them is to film people in secret. Like a pervert.

Cachyos will forever be the ideal Arch distro for nerds who want the benefits of Arch without the hassle of Arch (until they support some giant racist or soemthing)

Out of the loop… “Nazi bar”?

My calculations when i was working in a factory came out to about a 97.65% loss on my labor. Every piece i made was sold for $75, took me about a minute to make, and included about 7 other people to sell (oven, paint, quality inspection, forklift to trailer, forklift off trailer, stocker, cashier), 3 more if you include the parts before me (material procurement, forklift to trailer, and the same guy as before to take it off the trailer) I made easily 90 parts an hour, and was paid $25 an hour regardless of output. I paid 15% on taxes (fed, state, local) because im married and my wife cant work. The quarterly pizza party or $100 bonus was absolutely not worth the cost of my labor.

I said this over and over with the switch 2. Everyone i know who said they were boycotting folded the second a new zelda game got released or tomadachi life.

The latest bird may end up being the earliest. Lock the fuck in, gamers

Is this even possible or reasonable? Smart tvs are pretty dumb if you never connect them to the internet, so no issues until they decide to add 5g chips to them

I hear “master” all the time, usually replaced with “main” or “parent”. I NEVER hear “slave” unless im in extremely old server bios. It shocked me the first time i saw it, which was around 2017

My magic desk rocks should not be telling ME what to do. I should tell THEM to delete my root partition. Haven’t quite done that yet, but i did need to reinstall arch about 3 times before i got it right. About 5 years with no 15 minute+ issues thus far.

Tbf they already do that. Google’s had a button to turn off ad personalization that’s never worked since like, 2014 or something

Have you put on the regulation socks? They must be white with pink or baby blue stripes.

With the right inflection, this could mean 1) he knows less about any human being than he knows about grass or 2) he is the world expert on grass. Both of these are incredibly lame and not worth bragging about

If youve ever bought a laptop it likely came with a windows license. Custom pcs are exempt, but prebuilts also usually come with windows preinstalled and activated

Actually, forget the internet

They’re gonna stay like that unless a bunch of woke people join them out of nowhere for several years and convert/push out all of the weirdos

The bees consent! Veganism is about consent! If a cow could say “Yeah, please take my milk” it would be vegan! Theoretically domestic sheep wool is also vegan because theyll overheat and die if we dont shave them, and thus are probably pretty happy when we do and dont care what happens with it afterwards, but i dont think vegans are ready for that convo

I had 4 digits in my bank account. Still riding that high today, because i cant afford anything else to get high off of

Easy: get off of it. If your family is that important and refuses to move: call them occasionally. Every second you spend on it is another cent given to meta

I wish people were more open to simply not using products they dont like. Its inconveniencing, sure, but if you fundamentally disagree with the platform youre on, just get off. Maybe also get off, while youre at it

Id cap it at $10 million. I legitimately cant find a non-philanthropic use for $10 million. Some quick napkin math says i can spend about $1.7 million before running out of ideas to spend money on. Thats a 4b/2ba house, replacement car, backup car, house mods, gifts for family/friends, and a giant fuck you overkill server rack build for whatever tech projects i want. Put the rest in a garbage, basic ass savings fund and im already making more passively than i do manually now. I could blow $2k a day on literally anything and still make money.

Bold of you to assume normies can buy this shit. Spending $4000 on a hunk of metal that works slightly better than that $500 hunk of metal you bought 4 years ago doesnt make a whole lot of sense

That clown is conventionally attractive

Yeah you kinda just make them one of those one-way systems thats like airtight until you shove a hose in it, and then remove/automate the door and its truly drive through.

Im a billion% certain he either voice-to-texts everything he has ever written or just pays a guy to imitate him

Real answer is that autism leads to self isolation which naturally also leads into tech, and autistic individuals are more likely to come out as trans if they are because theyre already ostracized. Furry communities also highly appeal to autistic individuals because its a literal mask that lets you redesign yourself either online or in person with a fursuit. Source: I am an autistic trans furry :3

I assume things are legitimate until proven satire by the poster. This administration has shown time and time again to do the dumbest shit imaginable out of nowhere (unless youve read their playbook, but even then they do some insinine shit)

My wife and i sewed a pocket into our couch. We used to hold a TV remote there, now we have the laptop’s wireless mouse and charging cable in there. It seems silly for all of a week, and then its just part of the routine
