  • Man I feel you and I know it's just how things are. But I often ask myself the following question: Why are lots of office workers so bad with computers? It's the tool they use for 1/3 of working day in their life. Just like a craftsman should learn to use their tools. No, instead they always act like it's something only tech guys should know about.

  • Lmao, the feeling when it gets cancelled 5 minutes before.

    I found a new hobby: there is a group practicing with katanas (Iaido) in my region. The people there are also very nice.

    Since I am a computer guy, I'm having fun moving replacing more and more services from big tech with open source services.

  • Yup...i can confirm that

  • Everybody hating on Java being the de facto language every student learns first (at least back when I was in university) but I think it's actually a great first language while I don't think python is for one simple reason: it has types but tries to hide them from you. It is soooo important to understand types early though.

  • Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.

  • True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.

  • I think it all depends on how good our tools to detect AI generated content become. If it is not distinguishable, then the internet is probably about to be flooded by AI generated content which in turn means AI is going to be trained more and more with AI content, degrading the model in the process.

  • Not from the US and I don't understand why one would support a candidate just because he survived an assassination attempt. Can somebody explain the logic behind this?

  • 2024: The Year Linux Dethrones Windows on the Desktop – Are You Ready?

    Jump

  • Ah yes, this year is definitely the year of the Linux desktop. For real this time!

    It's never been a better time to switch to Firefox

    Jump

  • How is this going to end?

    Google blocks access to it's services for Firefox altogether? Maybe even ban it from the Play Store? That would finally give me a real incentive to install some CFW.

  • Is it an unofficial reddit client? How are they getting around the API prices? Webscraping?

  • I tried only Jerboa and that's what I stuck with. It loads fast and has every feature I want. Compare that to the official Reddit app, which is a slog on even high end devices. Seriously, what are they doing that it loads SO SLOW?

  • Google is ruining the entire web

    Jump

  • It's already too late. Google has a monopoly on the browser market. Do you think your regular normie would continue to use Firefox if Netflix, Instagram, TokTok etc. don't work anymore?

    There is nothing we can do. The internet of old is already lost.

  • Inm looking at you Typescript dev

    Jump

  • That's why I kinda don't like Python and JavaScript anymore. Every time I want types for a library it's gonna take me time to get it working. For every serious project I do, I use a strongly typed language.

  • Can corporations fuck it up if they want to? Couldn't we just migrate to a new instance and not federate? Or not federate with them from the beginning?
