lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is the BraX3 from braxtech.net a trustworthy investment?41·11 days agoI liked my Brax phone. It died when I jumped in the pool with it, but it was great!
Now have a fair phone. I like it too 🥰
Nah, it’s pretty great
Not as polished as Pop I think, but good and getting better
lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•muskrat's data eng expert's hard drive overheats while processing 60k rows5·1 month agoNVMEs will throttle if they are inadequately cooled. Pretty much only folks who are new at buiding computers and don’t adequately cool their NVMEs experience this.
Either way it shows what a clown show this is. I’m pretty sure they’re doing some babuki theatre to distract us and then if the scheme being done here is found, they’ll point fingers at the dipshit kid and he’ll be punished for whatever the con is.
Either way the billionaires will be better off for it, barring judicial, congressional, or military revolt; which is looking less likely by the day.
Bunch of traitors forgot their oath is to the constitution. The constitution IS the soul of the country and is to be respected. The country was founded by the constitution and it defines the system to be decentralized power giving control to the populace through three different branches of government. Not some false idol king or an evil oligarchy propped up by foreign and domestic robber barrons

lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•Suspicious Tesla Sales Surge Triggers Canadian Government InvestigationEnglish21·2 months agoFair point, but don’t make this a whattaboutism. Cheer them on for this
They’re outnumbered :)
lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainersEnglish1·6 months agoI think pressure should be put on the US to divest from genocide. Sanctions from our allies would be helpful… Surely with the international court declaring Israel’s actions a war crime it is easy to make a case for it.
Our election system has fucked over anti-zionists and needs reforming, which is happening, but not by this November.
Ranked choice voting is gaining popularity, electoral college is under pressure and people are fed up with voter suppression and gerrymandering and things are moving in a positive direction on the local and state levels.
I’m really rooting for SteamOS :D
More OS competition the better. As both a windows and Linux user I can tell you 100% Microsoft has been prioritizing data collection over productivity, ease of use and hardware longevity.
Their OS has become more cluttered and awkward than ever
It takes days to clear out all the pop-ups and disable all the things you don’t want. I find the ways of configuring networks and hardware is becoming more convoluted yet no more capable than window XP; nor any simpler.
To disable copilot AI assistant it took IT over a day to figure out. In our business we are legally not permitted to share client data with third parties for any reason. It required doing some obscure command line situation not documented outside of a forum post on Microsoft’s support forums. Same with installing without a Microsoft account and disabling one drive.
Unfortunately we also need to be able to use commercial software that isn’t supported under Linux and sometimes need more obscure software that is Windows only, so we are a bit stuck.
At home I use a couple Linux OSes on my workstation and servers. They are genuinely programmed to operate in as efficient and clean way as possible and I can build from there. It runs just as reliably on 15 year old hardware as it does on my latest rig. I also have a MacBook that runs really well, works seamlessly with my servers, offers the same terminal experience I have on my *nix workstations and never crashes.
*Nixes are more straight-forward, better documented and starts with most addons turned off. If you want, you can install an AI assistant. You certainly won’t have to choose to waste a day figuring out how to disable a pre-installed AI assistant or paying someone hundreds of dollars to disable it.
And I shouldn’t even start on how much a pain in the ass drive letters and fucking backslashes that need to be escaped/unescaped and translated to/from OS-X/*nix paths in data stores… And what the fuck they can’t get a proper sym-link implementation going?
They shoulda done what Apple did with OSX. Recognize OS-9 was saddled with too much complicated under-structure and start over with a clean, mature, standardized, optimized and extensible *nix. NT was a huge improvement over the OG windows, but it’s time for another refresh and what they got cooking with power Shell, Linux subsystem and their obsession with data collection and forcefeeding one cloud/copilot/accounts is not good.
Ah hell, you got me going. I’m ramblin again.
Point is, I’ve daily driven Win, OSX and *nix for decades. Hell, I started with MS-DOS 'cause Windows took too much space on my state-of-the-art 286 with 1 meg of RAM and have been a windows user for the majority of my life. Windows is the most convoluted and bloated and least secure of all the OSes. They’ve only kept their dominance through educating a generation of engineers on .net/direct-x, locking companies in with Office/outlook and promising corporations to spy on employees…
…The end.

lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•Infamous $30 Logitech F710 called out in $50M lawsuit over Titan sub implosionEnglish2·9 months agoHow dare you. I would never go so low
Fr srious tho, it is really tragic. The young man especially; he was completely innocent and deserved better
lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•Infamous $30 Logitech F710 called out in $50M lawsuit over Titan sub implosionEnglish5·9 months agoSrsly, it’s clear these guys didnt play video games with controllers growing up. Could you imagine getting left drift down there!?
They should have had an entirely redundant system on there; the controller being the first item on the list and from there to the motors.

I’m guessing that being google’s baby they integrated it into chromium
lefaucet@slrpnk.netto Technology@lemmy.world•JPEG is Dying - And that's a bad thing | 2kliksphilipEnglish41·9 months agoYou are totally right AND He’s making a valid point with his sarcastic joke of “shut up, nerd!”
“Nobody cares” means companies dont want to spend money to incorporate it if there’s no demand from consumers.
Most consumers have no idea what a jpeg even is.
It won’t be until Apple or someone brands it as an iPeg and claims you have a smol pp if your device doesn’t have it that folks will notice.
Im reminded of telling folks about shoutcasts and nobody cared. Then apple comes out with podcasts and everyone was suddenly excited about 8 year old streaming tech
Everyone’s heard of the “Hello world” being people’s first program, but just as popular among teenaged boys is their second, more advanced program: Boobs! :)
LOL my Tesla? Nonono. The possibility of me ordering a Tesla would require so much leadership refactoring at Tesla, I’m confident this is no longer a possibility.
To put it more sussinctly:
Fuck off with this bullshit ad headline. I wouldn’t touch these swasticars if they jerked me off nightly
