It’s a meme about how draining the cmos battery bricked some PC’s, I think. It’s formatted like the Wikipedia sidebar summary for articles on wartime battles.

Unfortunately modrinth just doesn’t have the feature set and ease of use that curseforge does for creating, automating, and managing content. I don’t like it either, but until someone steps up and dethrones them as THE way to get content, they are the best platform, at least functionally.

The result of a mod creator uploading to modrinth and not curseforge is simply that their mod will not be included in all of the popular modpacks hosted on curseforge, which is a death sentence for download count and income.

They really do! It’s nice to read something that’s clearly hand crafted and high quality, especially the big news roundups that you do, as opposed to the usual SEO slop most news sites have. It’s a treat every time a new one comes out.

On lemmy, I just browse “all” then filter out anything I don’t want instead of the opposite. I don’t use Mastodon much, or any twitter-style platform. As for videos I still use YouTube, just through the FreeTube application on desktop.

Edit: one thing I do follow is the gaming news posts by this person, who puts a whole lot of effort into them: @PerfectDark@lemmy.world

Honestly that’s kind of what lemmy is, in a roundabout way. I think you are right, but actually getting people to engage with that would be difficult. Today, word of mouth with younger people mostly revolves around individual things inside centralized platforms like a TikTok meme or something. I think in addition to independent sources of content, there needs to be a cultural change in how everyone accesses content. That’s the hard part.

Yes you said it better than I could have. Not only the perverse incentive, but also just the way ads have annihilated the usability of the internet for the average user. I know some sites can’t exist without ads, but the web now is an unusable mess of for-profit click bait SEO slop and the average non-profit oriented enthusiast with a website for something has a harder time than ever existing because of it.

I am not smart enough to know what to change, but I know something has to change. Short of a complete upheaval of the current web, the ones profiting off the current model will do everything in their power to make sure nothing changes.

This is why I’m conflicted. AI destroying ad revenue is that upheaval that could be fast and powerful enough to disrupt the status quo, but at what cost?

Yes, but that’s besides the point.

On one hand, I don’t generate ad revenue for anyone in the first place and would love to see the ad-supported web model collapse. On the other hand, I don’t like that AI is destroying things. I’m conflicted.

Work, school (not anymore, but while I was in school), local events where I meet people, friends, etc.

I’m an android user and I semi-frequently meet iPhone users who show anything between surprise and downright disdain towards me because I don’t have the right color of bubble.

It’s never the other way around.

Everyone uses smartphones. But to supplement the other good answers here, at some level of wealth, so much of your activities, interests and purchases are extended to secretaries, planners, asset managers, and otherwise individuals about whom you can claim “I’ve got a guy for that”, that tracking you as an individual becomes less effective.

Of course, nobody is immune just due to wealth and billionaires who use social media are tracked just like anyone else.

I’m going to get my commercial drone license and start doing freelance work to supplement my main job that doesn’t pay too well. Very excited.

Copied from the other repost:

Have you erased the continuation of the message that is saying something about “similar names, but are actually two distinct types”?

It is a common error if you have two dependecies that export the same third dependency and your code makes an assumption that the versions of the third dep match.

All other languages either straight-up don’t support multiple versions of the same dep, or throw random errors at runtime. So this message is a consequence of rust supporting things that other langs only dream of.

What types of videos do you like? I have so much high quality content available I literally cannot watch it all.

Code that works is also just text.

I’ve always said “lihb ree” office in my head. (lib as in rib)

I can’t press the record button without it crashing and it fails to see half of my audio inputs, so I’d say not great.

Yeah, good idea, we can even make long lines of them in a well-organized convoy. Maybe the ones in front and back can control the ones in the middle.

Then to make sure they stay in formation, we can physically link them together, but with a bit of slack to turn and such.

In fact, we could even make special roads for these convoys so they get maximum fuel efficiency while also preventing them from accidentally drifting off of it. These roads would be exclusively used by these tesla convoys.

When these roads have to intersect with normal ones, we will give the convoys right of way, with some sort of movable barrier blocking the other cars from crossing.

Yeah, this idea is shaping up. Imagine all the people and cargo we could move with this hyper-efficient system.
