Banned from lemmy.world for telling a woman she was “Dumber than shit”

Well, that’s not called wrongthink, that’s just being an asshole.

Touché

Well, maybe you subscribe to the wrong subs on the wrong instance?

'murica, fuck yeah!

Hold my bacon, one can patent the idea that a game character switches mounts depending on a given state? (Image 3)

The “Ready Player One” approach might also help.

It is still open source. However, it is not free software anymore.

AT MOST 5 a week and there are also weeks where I receive none at all. Interestingly it always seems to be the same type of spam from different adresses so there is probably a bot net somewhere that has my address and every month or so when the owners start a new wave I get a few and thats it.

On the other hand how many false positives have you had to pick out of the bin?

I am using my mail provider’s standard filter and at most I get 5 mails per week that make it through. And that’s with my mail being publicly available on my personal website. Not sure what sort of sites people sign up for, but spam has never been an issue, even away from Google.

I guess someone translated a Chinese figure of speech literally.

As is tradition. The first image transferred over the internet-precursor was also a cat picture.

Loads fine for me.

I will give bluesky credit for their focus on moderation.

Watch that focus disappear once the enshittification phase starts.

For me, it is a glorified auto-complete function. Could definitely live without it.

Your head is going to hurt even more if you are a German: The prefix “ent” usually means to lose or get rid of something. I.e. “I got rid of it” -> “Ich habe es entsorgt” so everytime I read “enshittification” I had to remind myself it’s the process of making something worse not better.

So “disenshittification” is a double knot in my brain. I propose “disshittification” as alternative.

Specific groups of hackers often have various markers that appear throughout their various malware.

Reused code fragments are the most obvious one. Others are specific code styles such as variable naming, even formatting. It’s basically the same stuff that is used to determine whether a specific text was most likely written by a specific person.

told an audience of Stanford students recently that “Google decided that work-life balance and going home early and working from home was more important than winning.”

Yeah, so I know for whom I wouldn’t want to work after graduating.

We do have countermeasures, however many countries mothballed them because we thought them obsolete.

The Gepard which has been proven to be invaluable in a close range AA role, is being pulled from scrapyards. Yes, the radar resolution has to be increased to effectively track small single use drones, but the technology is there.

North Koreans, posing as American workers, had been hired for multiple remote IT worker jobs

They never leave the country.

Well, I read somewhere in the 1800s an official in a major patent office resigned because he believed there was nothing new to invent/patent left.

Might be we will look back at our time right now the same as we do at the 1800s at the brink of a technological revolution.
