About damn time, they should never have disabled it in the first place.

They really should be recalled like they were forced to when the fdiv bug happened https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_FDIV_bug

You can't just tell someone to register for any server, and they will be able to see everything. So they then have to choose a server, which takes effort, and can cause analysis paralysis.

To be fair, they didn't say who it was better for.

Interesting that there's more outrage in the media at the UAVs being Chinese, than there is at the police using UAVs to spy on people.

Isn't this like the fourth time this has been posted? the conversation always goes around in circles with nobody changing their mind.

I hope he sends Nintendo a DMCA takedown.

I hope they don't, all the best torrent sites are Russian.

He says it will be closed source on the kickscammer page

They should just publicly publish all the messages from politicians' accounts.

If they want to see our messages we should be able to see theirs, fair is fair.

I guess moving to lemmy was too much work.

Narrator: It was, in fact, clickbait

Protesting a walled garden blocking third party apps, by moving to a walled garden that never allowed third party apps, is one of the stupidest things I've seen on reddit.

I love the chutzpah of it.

Creative commons isn't a licence designed for code though, consider using the AGPL instead.

Still less embarrassing than recommending GIMP.

Maybe a hot take, but allowing capitalist corporations to decide what is "the truth" was always a terrible idea.

The biggest, most significant reveal at this stage of development is that Pixelfed’s groups feature will be launching with compatibility for both Lemmy and Kbin

Awesome!

Kind of annoying, they could have used that space for a bigger battery, bigger heatsink, memory card reader, more ports, etc.

She asked the AI to make her photo more like what society stereotypes as professional, and it made her photo more like what society stereotypes as professional.

Great, now we have to pirate processor DLC.

Isn't that the chip that killed dozens of monkeys?

I wish there was an open source (2D) printer.

Hadrian's firewall

You could say, he was caught flashing.

The study only used images and the image recognition system, so this will only be accurate for self driving systems that operate purely on image recognition. The only one that does that currently is Tesla AFAIK.

I'm guessing it doesn't stop them putting DRM in parts and making parts cost more than a new phone.

I can't see anything about the licence being open source. He makes you jump through hoops to get the files so I can't tell for certain.

Aren't those ads personalised to your browsing history?

The BSL violates point six of the open source definition, so isn't open source https://opensource.org/osd/

Windows mobile and palm had existed for years before iphone.

For some reason there seems to be minimal overlap between the two communities and that blows my mind.

There seems to be completely different cultures IMO

  • Quote replies are normal on lemmy, but controversial on mastodon
  • Full text search is normal on lemmy, but, again, controversial on mastodon.
  • A significant proportion of lemmy users seem to dislike defederation, or at least view it as a last resort, while it seems to happen at the drop of a hat on mastodon.

At least that's the impression I've got from my limited attempts to use mastodon.

Has Anish Kapoor tried to trademark it yet?

I'd rather have a hinged physical keyboard.

Instances only collect stuff from communities that have at least one subscriber on their sever.

As someone who mostly likes those things, that does seem to be a big problem here.

Specifically to help train AI for Google's self driving car division.
