OneNote re-installing and re-adding itself to my startup after I absolutely turned it into swiss cheese was my final nail in the coffin.
Windows now lives in an image file that I can boot into using Linux as a thin client to start up a Windows VM for the occasional time I need to do some heavy Excel work. Absolute trashware.
2 days? He said 2 weeks haha
On the lower end of estimates, the number of unique chess board configurations is 10^120, often referred to as the Shannon number. The universe doesn’t stand a chance.
Yo, I completely forgot about Evolution! Definitely putting that on the rewatch list.
Huh, so 7 years bad luck was actually just heavy metal poisoning? Fascinating…
That’s honestly technology in a nutshell. Technological development leads to further abstraction, leading to less low level knowledge. It’s always been this way. Is AI an abstraction step too far, or are we just the next generation of old man yelling at cloud?
As per the article: “A nine-day reporting trip by The Washington Post through the region…”.
Ah, interesting. My apologies, I’ve been driving all day and have been checking my phone sporadically and haven’t had the time to properly read the article. I have now.
but it’s so exhausting seeing the same talking points of concern trolls like you who have heard on reddit and Lemmy …
I totally understand, and I do apologize for propagating this behaviour. My knowledge was outdated and that’s no one’s fault but my own.
All in all though, my whole point is honestly just that I don’t really trust any government to be totally truthful in regards to information they share, regardless of whether that’s the US, China, or even my home country, and my initial assumption was that this information was coming from them directly. Clearly, I was incorrect in this case, spouted some outdated shit confidently, and I apologize. I appreciate your patience.
And the information they publish comes from where exactly?
There is no need for snarkiness, by the way. You act like Im attacking you directly. If this is how you communicate, I’m just going to block you and move on with my life.
I’m sure the government that lied about wrongly imprisoning people in the first place is totally being truthful now.
I wouldn’t take the Chinese or US government’s claims at face value.
To be fair, China is 2nd in overall prison population by country globally, so it’s not like their numbers are complete bs. I’m sure there is some fudging in what constitutes as a “prisoner” when they have had “re-education camps” though. That said, the US’s numbers are fucking insane.
My time using a computer and trying to have any semblance of organization has taught me the same
Ah yes, the Dems, widely known for snatching people off the streets on the fucking daily.
I feel it. Most of the stuff I care about is random projects of mine, most of which are on github. The biggest downside of me losing my local files is honestly just significant, but not insurmountable inconvenience.
Here’s the difference: humans are unique in our understanding of these systems and have the empathy and ability to make better choices.
I wouldn’t expect a whale to track the ethical and environmental impacts of its pod’s consumption, not because it shouldn’t, but because it literally does not have the intellectual capacity to do so.
Not if you need system wide PTT
Samesies, but on EndeavourOS
Most people are not defending her, but are instead upset by the blatantly bigoted framing of the article.
Read the fucking headline.
As an immigrant to the US, I’ve always found the blind patriotism commonplace here to be very strange. It feels even more alienating now than ever before.
