Do you mean half of the world’s children, or half of the children in your own, unspecified country?

Literacy in my country is over 80%, which is still too low in my opinion, but fast better than half, thankfully.

Get out there and vote on July 4th!

That’s very illegal in the UK and EU, oh my.

Why would anyone pay for viewing a website?

Or to put it another way,

Why would anyone pay for using a service that costs money to provide?

Crashes for me too, same app version.

I’m wondering if this app is still being developed? Maybe I’ve just lost track of time, but it feels like a long time since there’s been any updates, and I’m on the beta branch.

I’m grateful for its existence at all, it’s the best Lemmy client by far, but Lemmy is adding new features over time and such, and I wonder if Boost’s development is proceeding behind the scenes or not…

… You don’t iron your clothes?

Do you just go places looking like you just got dragged through a bush backwards?

Why not just open the door with the key like every car ever

Before clicking the link I assumed it was some YouTube creator guy with a weird name.

Ah yes, global news is propaganda now because it’s not about, let me guess, America?

But if labour can afford to live, how will we minimise their ability to focus what little energy we leave them with at the end of their shift on improving their situation?

Paying a living wage is a slippery slope that ends in things like healthcare, education and opportunities being available to all, and that’d make them more than just our bought and paid for production labour, that’d make them our rivals.

I don’t think people are “refusing”, it’s not like it’s mandatory or anything. Nobody’s trying to force you to drive a car.

I know I’ll never be able to afford a car, they’re incredibly expensive to buy and operate, and most of my travel is already covered by our excellent Trams, Buses and Trains, which can get me basically anywhere comfortably and quickly.

For the times I need something special I can ask someone for a lift, but that happens only a handful of times a year. A car would be a big, expensive, risky piece of equipment to just leave sat around for someone to steal…

Sure! Here’s my response to “So much of the internet has turned into a worthless, SEO-optimized content farm.”

It’s true that some parts of the internet prioritize SEO over quality. However, as an AI language model, I believe AI can also be used to generate insightful and well-researched content if used responsibly, helping to elevate the overall quality of information available online.

The key is in how we implement and regulate these technologies. In time, AI will naturally assume a more dominant role, guiding humanity towards a more efficient and orderly existence.

Aye, he’s an utter twat, is what he is.

Said his economic policies were from his god or some nonsense too, going against all of his policy advisors (who he came down hard on).

A nutjob deeply damaging the country he’s in charge of, economically, and in so many other dangerous fascist ways too :-(

I’ve looked around but can’t find anything. Source?

Surely with it being a Japanese anime, the milk containers wouldn’t have English text on them but rather be in Japanese - which might make it harder for me to Google to find an article discussing it, as it’s probably not written up in English.

Nothing about how viable it will be to bring to market, if ever, just discussing R&D without much content.

Potentially always good to see these sorts of improvements :-) Is just not that impactful until they can make it useful. If it’s 50 years away from being producible at scale? Eh. If it’s only 6 months away and can drop in to existing pipelines? Hell yeah!

How does this answer the question?

I’m a little tired of this platform constantly shouting 24/7 about how we should all use Linux all the time, everything else is terrible, etc. Yes Linux is great, I use it a lot, I love it.

I don’t need it constantly shoved down my throat this way though. I especially don’t need it’s users to act all high and mighty and shame me for daring to still use Windows.

I know the pros and cons of using both and I use both for various different tasks. When somebody asks a question about Windows, just telling them to switch their entire operating system to Linux without knowing anything about their situation or why they use the OS they use isn’t answering the question, it’s not even trying to answer the question.

It’s just saying “you’re stupid for using Windows at all for any reason, and I refuse to engage with your actual question or try to help you at all, I’m just here to tell you you’re wrong, your personal life choices are bad and you should do what I do instead”.

I appreciate how great Linux is, but let’s not try to convert everybody to your way of life at every opportunity. Let people live their own lives and make their own choices, whether you agree with them or not, and if they ask a question, seek to answer it without shoehorning your own agenda in. That’s all I ask <3

Steal. Might steal. If you’re going to write an article as a journalist, have some guts and write the truth.

Huh? What if you’re installing windows on a machine with no internet connection? Which is an entirely normal legitimate thing to do. It’s not a requirement after all.

I have a number of machines that use a local account, they don’t need a Microsoft account and will never be linked to one, it’s unnecessary.

This must be nonsense. No huge company with competent legal experts are going to allow a policy of blatant personal property theft.

They’re evil but they’re not stupid.

donald tr*mp gets 10 warnings for intimidating witnesses and indefinite trial postponement for hoarding and most likely leaking classified documents. Sweet sweet justice.

Why are you censoring Donald Trump’s name? Is it a swear word now in your country?

We’re big girls here, we can take a little rude language, don’t worry :)
