It’s easy, the sun rises in the… oh wait no it sets in the… erm… so what time is it?

Content advertising isn’t “on brand” for Apple, so this would be a bold move.

Author: “write me a 4000 word article on why microplastics are bad

ChatGPT: generates 4000 words of text explaining what micro means, what plastic means, and paraphrasing the “controversy” section of the Wikipedia page on microplastics

Reader: “Summarise this article”

James Acaster probably my fav standup comedian.

Finally a proper vertical tabs option!

Personal preference ofc but after trying it on a whim I can’t go back.

Meh, time for another fork.

To those people saying switch to MySQL, they miss the point - MySQL and Maria are basically interchangeable, Maria was made to replace MySQL like for like when oracle took over. It was made by the same guy (et al) and he he named both after his daughters.

When Maria is taken over the same thing will happen. I for one hope that it is named for Widenius’ other child, max.

If I had a dollar for every pixel in this image I’d have a nickel.

Google preferring https sites was the motivator I saw for client demands.

SEO scores feed into the PPC cost in AdWords so all of a sudden people were crying out for their sites to “have the padlock icon” because what’s 20 bucks for a cert when you’re spending thousands of dollars a month

Controversial but I was surprised at how well trump did for himself.

He managed to dial down the lies and rhetoric from “how stupid does he think the audience is” to “obviously bullshit”.

Well done to Harris of course, in particular for calling his playbook tactics out at the start, then repeatedly calling out the lies and dog whistling each time - the way to beat a manipulating bully is to shine a light on their behaviour plainly in public and she nailed it.

Bonus points to Harris as well for laughing at him whilst maintaining class.

Step 1: be ADORABLE

The original had to be one of the most underrated (or just undermmarketed?) games of all time.

Absolutely fantastic RPG.

Haven’t played fifa but understand that loot boxes are basically gambling. Arguably worse than gambling because with gambling at least you might win something “real”.

Curious though - there was a screenshot in the article where you could preview a loot box before buying - does that not make it more like “buying” the players instead of “gambling” for them?

What’s the plan for hosting?

Is this… unexpected?

Genuine question.

MySQL (/ˌmaɪˌɛsˌkjuːˈɛl/)[5] is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS).[5][6] Its name is a combination of "My", the name of co-founder Michael Widenius's daughter My,[7] and "SQL".

My Widenius-SQL 😂

Has this been achieved by integrating the translation add on funded by the EU and some British universities?

If so then good to see taxes being well spent for a change!

The thing with teams is that they had it pretty much nailed ~2 years ago, but decided to keep going.

Exactly! It’s more “Help me help you” than anything nefarious.

That thumbnail tho 🤤

The only thing holding me back from switching to Linux is gaming.

Nowadays you can run windows games with proton just as well if not better than on windows.

I’m thinking about tying Ubuntu.

Ubuntu is garbage and canonical are pure evil for everything they’ve done. Snaps? Garbage you need flatpaks/debs/app images.

Bro it’s easy just avoid any distro with systemd and gnome/goblin/plasma that’s why I use Trilby. It’s a molecular version of Susan.

I installed Linux mint for my Granma if she can use it anyone can. Though personally I use arch btw.

(I actually do use Linux, for anyone curious a bastardisation of Ubuntu + KDE wrangled to work on a MacBook that Apple are ditching support for… , btw)

Agree they’ve being easing their way in for a while. My point was specifically about advertising within the content itself which would be a new line crossed.

Edit: actually yes they did do this with Apple News didn’t they! (Which is why I stopped paying for it).

I’ve had some luck with Ubuntu, I’ve made my “notes” public in case it’s of use to you!

I’d started with bootcamp (windows) to add another bootloader option then went from there. Most of my docs go from there.

PHP should stand for “Pre Hypertext Processor”.

Instead of being a recursive acronym for “PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor”.

+1. People often don’t realise they can just try it on a usb stick (and often easily install alongside windows osx)!

Not sure where to get them but this is the app you want to play them: https://www.audiobookshelf.org/

Another example of inherently predatory “what the market will bear” pricing.

Thankfully in this instance it’s not an essential…

I’m so glad you posted this - my integrated fridge door has dropped slightly after being taken off and put back on when installed. Can’t really screw back into mdf/chipboard/whatever and I’ve been stressing about getting it fixed for months because whilst it’ll get worse over time, it technically works and no doubt the fitter would say I need to take the whole thing out and replace the side panel.

Thank you!

Indeed.

When popular “real artists” release songs, they usually won’t have written the lyrics or the music, leaving just the vocals, which they will auto tune and possibly even mime in future performances.

A producer will then use powerful software to mix and refine everything.

So really the question to me is not about “is there anything impure in this art?” It’s “where is the line?”.

How does the image scanning compare to docker scout? (Or whatever the docket desktop one is called).

Manor Lords.

Plays really well but as one reviewer put it, it gets old after 20 hours or so.

That said, the early access bit is done well in that the content that is there works pretty well, and you can see placeholder for the other features being worked on.

Like right now it’s maybe like 25% of the full game, but that 25% works well and you can clearly see what’s coming.

Docker too obvious?

Double upvote

Awesome that they’ve done this but it’s still a lot of steps.

I’ve heard there are cracked versions pre-packaged so it would be good if one of the retailers could release something similar given the popularity.

Said it before and I’ll say it again - one of the most underrated games ever!

+1 for smiling mind

I managed to get it working under Ubuntu following this trail https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux#intel

Blacklisting the amd GPU caused Linux not to boot however…

You ever get the webcam working? I’ve tried the patjak stuff and can get the device detected but alas no /dev/video

Very nice!

Would all investments be liquidated rather than just inherited?

This is the worst with local host too
