Once you discover you can just install the nix package manager with one command and then install everything with another, snap is out of the game. Even if you just use nix for like 2 packages, it’s already much better

I think a huge human torso on top of a giraffe could also look funny enough

Why not scale up the size of the human so it fits with both solutions?

Isn’t a pegasus a bird? Would that mean that they lay eggs?

I usually fly in to buy it locally. Important these days to know your farmers

correct answer (as far as my opinion is concerned without doing any actual research)

That is a romantic way to say it

Does it do swipe and how well? Github says a blob library is needed for that. Can’t be bothered with typing individual letters anymore on mobile

Depends on where you live. In Japan, most of the time it’s either way too hot to hang out on the balcony or way too cold. In Europe it’s fine in many places for most of the year.

Some of it also has to do with rent prices which can be higher if you have a balcony.

Also, and again in Japan: There is an emergency balcony exit in some apartment buildings in case a natural disaster hits. It’s probably easier to climb your way down a bunch of balconies with holes in the ground than a blank wall

We can argue as much as we want about whether moore’s law covers technological development in general or be pedantic like good old fundamental Christians and only read what the words say.

The bigger problem is that we have reached the era of what we could tentatively call “wal s’eroom”. Thanks to enshittification (another one of those slippery words!) I predict that technological progress reverses from now on by 50% every 2 years.

Please take context into account. Please.

(this is a lil’ lemmy thread and I think everyone understands what OP had in mind)

Ubuntu’s role in the ecosystem is important. They are good at first luring people into using linux. Then the users get pissed off of Ubuntu, because of Snap, ads, or whatever random crap they know from Windows. Finally, they move on to better options, be it Arch, Debian, or Puppy. Ubuntu ensures they don’t all stick to the same

Slightly late, but I currently rewatch the lecture I talked about in my other comment. The interesting part starts roughly here:

But really, the entire lecture series is quite worth a watch.

I got 600$ in the bank motherfucker

a nope

Are those the Results of the Search of the Rise of the Return of the Planet of the Apes?

For politicians: Gesturing that you “do something” against the “rampant crime” happening everywhere, which makes you appear as if you care about citizens. On the other hand, actually doing something (e.g., preventative measures) is too expensive and doesn’t make you look cool as a politician. If you introduce the new surveillance ‘AI’ 2000 ™ by Future Corp., you represent safety, power, future, even if there is nothing meaningful behind it.

For Future Corp.: Sell a lot of shit to politicians and profit.

Wrong question. “I have a solution (‘AI’), what’s the problem it should solve?” This is the path towards micromanaging stuff that’s not core to the enterprise.

Instead, try to identify specific problems in the specific context, or factors that are most relevant for success. Then see what the solution could be. That solution might be “AI”, or a bunch of sticky notes, or whatever else.

Other than that: Wherever you use a new tech like ‘AI’, also consider the risks. For example, do you really want to outsource part of your customer relations to an unpredictable thing that sends them the implicit message that you don’t care to directly communicate with them? Etc.

Deadpool vs. (and?) Wolverine. Meh. They try to be funny by making fun of the megacorps that produce such movies (how witty indeed!) while being the same thing you’ve watched 1000 times before.
