You are 100% correct. The problem is most of the public has lost the ability to discern the difference between truth and fiction. Not their fault specifically: most of even the most technically literate would struggle to fact check what our news media and feeds dump on us.
The lizard brains always existed. Inbred, maladjusted, loud angry hateful fucks. We used to be able to suppress them. We ceded the helm of this nation to a bunch of corporations and their puppets in congress. We’ve been trying like hell to fight this multi front battle and are just taking Ls across the board.
We are burning books. Banning knowledge.
We are entering an environment where many do not have the luxury of having an opinion.
Speaking for all of those who were still trying: We’re sorry. We’re still here. We still care. But we’re fighting a losing battle.
Speaking for myself… I’m fucking tired man. I’m not the only one. People I’ve spoken to all are effectively the same: resigned to what comes next. There isn’t enough unity in this mess to right the ship. That unity will come with desperation… and we’re not there yet. 4-6 years. Maybe then. It’s got to get a lot worse before we unify over the collective mess we’re all stuck in.

You are clearly missing the point of the statement.
If I, a developer, stepped away from a project because I wanted to protect myself: the bridge could be mended from my side regardless of if I was willing to do so (…why hello secret police!) The termination of the bridge from the opposite side means I have lost my strategic value.
As I implied: putting personal feelings aside here- this was a net positive for those in Russia presently given the political climate.
If hes not on a paylist for state sponsored propaganda he should be. That was insufferable reporting on the level Id expect from fox news.
Putting aside personal feelings about this move- considering the current situation in Russia… this move may well actually protect some developers lives. There are people taking long walks off of short balconies because they didn’t kiss the ring. If I was a developer in that country I’d personally be pretty stoked I was off the short list.
ISPs won’t do shit that would affect their bottom line. If they play ball with this it’s a slippery slope to mass cullings of their subscriber base.
so they can go fuck themselves.
They didn’t need your permission. That’s how they keep breaking records for lowest IQ. ;)
Hey someone’s gotta keep the average IQ of a lawyer bell curve balanced. I’m pretty sure the 5th circuit is the equivalent to “Florida Man” in the legal space.
Probably Xen. Maybe proxmox. Both had tools to assist with migration.
So that sounds exceptionally awful. You have any more info on that?
… why are they always so goddamn hot.
One piece digitally drawn in an hour or two maybe. Otherwise it is likely premade, generated, or not their source. Yeah- if you are talking backgrounds for a phone they could be more abstract or start with a base but for 45 bucks? That buys you an hour or two of that artists time- three if they like the idea or you.
If you know an artist doing commissions that cheap they are depressed, desperate, or want to fuck you.
Nah it’d be cheaper to commission the artist for a dozen or so pictures for 45 bucks:
First you need to blow some ungodly amount of money on breaking the time/space barrier… Then travel back to the 1920s and find a starving artist. Then pitch him 45 bucks for some art. Easy! 45 bucks to them is like 800 of our today dollars.
Sarcasm aside- it seems people really are disconnected on how much a commission or art costs. Sure you can buy prints reasonably priced but any commission that isn’t a speedy doodle is going to clock in a helluva lot higher.
Tech Jesus does not fuck around. Jokes aside- it’s a good channel.
It’s a new ai with 2 extra layers to double check the previous prompts! Who could have possibly foreseen this advance in the field?!
disclaimer: I have 0 idea how many layers they used but I am reasonably certain they just voltron’d that shit.
That gave me abandoned vibes when I looked into it. Maybe they just didn’t update anything on their site but I struggled to find any recent info or reviews on it. A shame honestly. I loved the idea.

… both Microsoft products … weird.
Be cautious with the commercial display route. A lot of them come with “management system” software the company is trying to push which can paywall control features or break things on you if they get online for firmware updates.
In general though they do make good displays: they are typically a lot more expensive (and heavy!)
And while you’d be right to do so- make no mistake that there are posts on every social media platform with the same exact goal in mind. This one is no different.
We are entering into an era informational noise. The signal is still there but it is fucking faint in the storm of misinformation and ai/seo bullshit it is being transmitted into.
