  • I think they included it to say that the person espousing this view isn’t older, like a boomer of gen-x-er.

  • How to auto unlock an encrypted drive on start for a fedora server?

  • Waymo trains its cars to NOT stop at crosswalks

    Jump

  • I think you could liken it to training a young driver who doesn’t share a language with you. You can demonstrate the behavior you want once or twice, but unless all of the observations demonstrate the behavior you want, you can’t say “yes, we specifically told it to do that”

  • I’m always confused by people who don’t seem to understand that MacBooks and iPhones run different OSs. Why would they run the same OS?

    You can install pretty much anything on a MacBook via the open-source package manager brew. I’ve been exclusively using Linux at home for almost 20 years, but on my work computer, which is a MacBook, I really don’t find much is missing. I use the same oh-my-zsh profile on both, brew install the real version of most utilities, and I move on with my life and get work done.

    Apple doesn’t lock down the bootloader at all, so it’s trivial to install Asahi Linux now if you want to. I did this on my home computer because I like the screen, battery life, and keyboard layout.

  • Democrats Make Last Plea to Biden to Change Marijuana Law Before Trump

  • So your options were re-elect the team who are following the process but started late and put and end to federal prosecutions while he was in office, or re-elect the guy whose last AG was 100% against any reform attempts and actively prosecuted offenders.

    But no, go ahead and tell me how Trump was the better option here. This is why the republicans win. Everything on the left is a purity test where we endlessly belittle our politicians for not delivering everything all at once on day one, while the right makes plans that span decades to take power. Look at the Federalist Society. It took them decades to arrange for the moment where they would have decisive control over the judicial branch so they could crime with impunity. But tell me how Biden not completing a five year process in four years was too slow.

  • Everything with government doesn’t have to be slow, but congress wrote this bill so that two successive presidents would have to keep pursuing it.

  • Microsoft Please Fix

  • What exactly do you think discard means?

  • I think it’s important to know that this program is for code developers, and the issue here is with a tool called git. Git is like file saving on steroids, because on top of saving a single file, you save many changes to files in git, add a comment for why you made those changes, and share your changes across dozens of files with other developers.

    What this guy did was develop for many months after starting to use git, but he never actually committed the files. Then he asked for to reset everything back to the original state, something that I do multiple times a day, and it gave him a warning that original means original and you will lose everything. And he said do it anyways.

  • AI-powered vending machines that sell bullets could be hacked, says a cybersecurity expert

    Jump

  • Things like this are literally just so that there is a test case to make it up to the Supreme Court. They do something ridiculous that obviously violates the intent of the law but mostly stays inside the letter of the law, in hopes that the Supreme Court will take it up and overturn the law. So, yes, the fact that the vending machine can technically sell bullets to minors is a feature, not a bug. Why is their endgame getting rid of age restrictions for firearms and ammunition? You’d have to ask the death cult themselves about that one.

    The main hit I found was a National Geographic article (paywall it seems) from Jul 18, 2012

  • Rudy Giuliani’s lawyers abruptly quit defamation case

    Jump

  • Because showing up exposes them to lying and losing, which would be objectively worse. Of course, you could not be a shady sack of shit, but then you wouldn’t have to lie and might not lose.

    And complying with discovery would mean exposing his communications with dear leader Mr Trump, and you can’t risk that.

  • Right? The math here is all over the place. Like he figured out how much WoW would cost over two years and then asked ChatGPT for an investment plan with $950 or something.

  • Yeah, all these people are acting like at 2:1 odds are some kind of impossible situation still to this day.

  • From a marketing perspective, it sounds like a slam dunk. Someone wants to sue you, with lots of fanfare, saying that your energy drink doesn’t actually give you wings? Sure, come in at us. In the mean time, we’ll take out ads everywhere with fake apologies about not actually giving you wings.

  • Yeah, I feel like a meta community is a clients side feature with server side hints.
