In the 90s at least, 15% was for EXCEPTIONAL service…

Now its 15% if they dont spit in your food…

I’m surprised some marketing genius at the intel/amd hasnt started using the bigger numbers

My bank used to complain that my browser was out of date. I wrote an email to customer service explaining to them that:

A) debian’s “out of date” browser actually includes all up to date security patches. B) simply reading the browser agent isnt really security. I had simply been spoofing my browser agent to get around their silly browser “security” policy

They removed the browser check 2 weeks later. Not sure if it was because of me

I would vote for him as prime minister… The federal NDPs need a change

Oops, i was confused. They have a risc-v tablet but shown with a keyboard accessory so it looks like a laptop

Not sure how much this will be but pine64 already has a risc-v development laptop available for a long time

Edit: not a laptop but a tablet

Unfortunately, its their platform and their rules… And not even rules… Their whims.

I dont know why people expect corporations to support anything other than profit. You want free speech? For-profit, non-free platforms aren’t the place to do it

So… Only slightly more than 2 microsofts ($3.2T market cap)

Apparently it was a children’s tv show

I hope you’re upgrading from debian buster to bullseye!

I keep hearing how addictive nicotine is (7x more than heroin??), but in my experience, i never got addicted. Is there something wrong with my brain?

I never smoked two packs a day, but i spent at least 3 years smoking socially (2 or 3 smokes at work every day and then 2 or 3 smokes at the bar on the weekend). So around a pack a week.

But during that time, i could always just take a week or two off if i needed to. I always wanted a smoke (especially with a beer or coffee) but i could resist the urge, no problem.

At the end of the 3 years, i just quit cold turkey. I would keep smoking once in a while with a beer, but i never went back to regular smoking…

Do you only get addicted if you’re smoking a pack a day or more?

I thought they were all legally unenforceable anyway?

Edit: Thanks for the downvotes and legal clarifications. I am not a lawyer and was simply asking a question.

They put winter tyres with studs on the bikes

Prompts are just the reverse of image recognition AI tagging stuff.

Alt text is exactly the kind of tedious work that AI would be good at doing, but everyone in the fediverse seems to have a huge hate boner for ANYTHING AI…

Fediverse: write a fucking essay every time you post an image… But make sure you waste time doing it manually, instead of using AI tools!!!

People are imperfect. Thats why there should be more stringent requirements for a bunch of very imperfect people to be given licenses to pilot 3 ton death machines.

I dont know if this person was drunk or texting… But i’m sure there were red flags prior to this incident.

I canada, it’s illegal to call something a pint if it’s not 20oz/568mL

But i havent seen a real pint glass at any bar for many years a nobody calls out this behaviour or enforces the rules.

Yeah, i hate how LLMs are getting lumped into actually useful machine learning stuff that has been in development for years without all the hype and idiot CEOs trying to use it to layoff useful employees

Can it outrun a kenyan in a marathon?

Or the real question is if a battery can be made small enough to fit in a human sizef robot that can keep it running over 42km

I dont know how much more blatant the last murder could be…

If anything, it only emboldened them to see how little anyone cares
