Thanks for making it political... For what it's worth, the far right is perfectly capable of weaponize conservation. Think of the war on windmills.

Now that the dust have settled on the Twitter acquisition, I would absolutely love to hear some perspective on what the working culture is like there now. I don't feel much have been leaked since the initial outrage, but it may just be

This is interesting. I wonder why it's not visible by default.

Scandinavian countries went very hardcore digital for a while, giving all kids iPads and Laptops, and getting rid of all physical books. This sounds like a strong reversal, and I hope the other Scandinavian countries will learn some lessons

I'm a huge fan of Tolkien, and I had never heard of her. How bizarre. I wonder if she is mostly well known in America or whether I simply managed to miss her work. I am very tempted to get "The Atlas of Middle-earth" now thou

"as a goodwill gesture" has to be the most condescending wording imaginable. Basically translates as "we are shutting down this PR nightmare in the early stages, here is your hush money, but you were still 100% at fault all a

Mostly there isn't any difference. I run steam just fine in Mint, it works about as well as my Steam deck, which is to say very well. I guess there is some optimisation and default settings more aligned to the purpose on Steam OS.

It has become taboo to say we don't have any more content for you. I was searching for tech jobs in Copenhagen in my fairly (but not overly) specialised field that is not overly common here on LinkedIn. After 4-5 results that was relev

I use Vim (recently switched to Neovim on my work laptop) as my daily driver with a minimum set of plugins. My primary language right now is Go, but used to be C++. It works just fine for my purpose. I have tried using IDEs in the past, mos

I won a £700 claim against a second hand car dealer for selling me a car with a brokenx clutch. It took a bit of work, and there were almost a year waiting time to see a judge, but any expense incurred can be added to the claim. It was a ve

I was the same, except I never went back. However I just got a Steamdeck, and the desktop mode runs KDE, and it's very very nice. I'm probably gonna try it out as my daily driver on my desktop.

The heads of Lego figures started having a hole in the top for the same reason I believe.

that's touched on in the article. It may be possible as a niche, but there is a whole cottage industry working to bypass the AI detectors.

by lkramer 2y ago
As a developer, this is kinda where I fear ending up: a glorified editor of crummy AI generated code for a pittance. At that point I'll probably check out of the industry.

This reads like a parody of a LinkedIn post, poor candidate.

This reminds of when Microsoft released a comic strip chat client for IRC. You would have these people popping into IRC channels with all kinds of metadata about their character. It was fine for them, but super annoying for everybody with a

I am not anti reaction as such, especially when it's just a thumbs up, although I very seldom use it myself. However I really struggle with emojis as a general concept. I don't understand a lot of them, and it seems people put a l

They kinda do this. If you disable emojis, you get their text representation. It's can be misleading because the text representation sometimes diverge from what the user thinks the emoji means.

There are plenty of competing stores, all of which pales in comparison. I don't know what their secret sauce is, but for me personally what makes a difference and why I keep preferring them is their dedication to Linux as a platform an

That is perhaps reasonable if it's one store, or even a chain, but the article spoke about this applying across multiple chains, whichever used this software. If we end up banning people for life from shopping in physical sto ed becaus

The page is very broken for me (Firefox in Linux), locking up, flickering. I did manage to get it to place a picture of a praying mantis I took in Japan to be from California...
