If you have to run power to it, you might as well run some data as well. Never really the best idea to have mission critical equipment at the mercy of a congested wifi network.

They didn't really need to specify the bf is a top when they ended the post with a keyboard smash

It's been like 3 days dude, calm down.

I kind of wonder how a company with such an iron grip on SSO can't manage to be profitable. That and I literally saw a job listing from Okta last weekend, so they're probably just trying to replace their tenured high cost employees with cheaper workers.

Took long enough - at a certain point Nvidia's pricing just to get CUDA doesn't make sense when compared to the cost of just investing in ROCm and OneAPI.

All they had to do was find the right balance, but apparently they decided to see how much money the printer could make...

If a society is to function people need to be doing the work that isn't enjoyable as well as the work that's enjoyable.

There's likely not enough people that get genuine enjoyment out of being a garbage man or sewer maintenance worker for a world with everyone doing what they want to work.

You have to add incentives for the less desirable labour or else the system collapses under its own weight.

If you look at the mod that's hosting the poll they never even left the site. This doesn't feel like something they're doing for the benefit of the community, it feels like they're doing it because they're addicted to the platform and aren't willing to make a community elsewhere. It just happens that they can open a poll and all the people that already left aren't going to have a chance to say no.

Not too mention that they're hosting it on Reddit itself, which requires an account to vote on polls. When many people already deleted their accounts.

I believe part of the DMA means that they're allowed to use their own engines. Whether they have that ready right now I'm not sure, but I'm sure it's in the works.

I understand the concern but I think you're just not really in the target demographic for the project. Terraform is a very well known infrastructure-as-code tool, and the other companies listed are suppliers of commercial products that build on top of what Terraform provides.

Maybe the article is being vague but stuff like this really doesn't seem like it should be patented. Especially considering I'm pretty sure I've seen this done in games before. The simplest being Mario games giving you invincibility in a level after you die a set amount of times. Or I think A Hat in Time would shorten certain boss battle segments after you completed them already.

The implementation here would need to be really new and impressive to justify this being a patent. And I'm guessing it won't be, assuming they ever actually do something with it.

It's silly, all the legal precedence we have for emulators were for commercial offerings. If Nintendo wants to hit you with so many invalid lawsuits that you're forced to fold then this certainly won't stop them.

It's just bullying and it's going to keep happening until there's laws in place protecting it.

Some of the best inventions in history came from people reverse engineering the work of others. If we want to keep moving forward then we can't let companies bully people out of innovating. It's shooting ourselves in the foot.

I feel like we're just going backwards, we stopped caring about tech getting thin enough to act like a blade like a decade ago.

Why are we doing this again?

The fun part is that for some industries this will "work".

Not because the AI actually functions as a replacement for workers, but because a lot of companies have become bloated from aggressive hiring over the past few years.

So when things continue to function with the reduced staff they'll say how great the AI is. When in reality all that's going to happen is the employees that stay around will just be picking up more of the work again.

Hurray for out of touch CEOs!

Probably a good idea, plenty of languages out there that can give good performance while being memory safe nowadays.

Yeah Telus in Canada has been doing this recently as well. We're just back to cable packages except now you have like 4 different apps to worry about.

Bots and lack of mods on different timezones most likely.

Would probably make sense to have an account age requirement and comment requirement before posting somehow.

It's frustrating for sure, I was even more annoyed when we had a referendum in BC and people opted to keep things the same.

I don't need any sins, my knees buckle under the weight of my own body just fine.

I worry that this little fellow is telling lies to discredit my irrational fears.

He probably hates me too.

Yes but the assholes are the ones that tend to take advantage of things like this.

You probably have some parisitic power draw somewhere, my old Ford focus had the same issue. Was just a bad relay causing a fan to run when the car was off.

Subreddit moderators live without having power over a group of people challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

Someone forgot a case in their test suite.

Among Us

I don't know if I'd even call it cringe considering it seems so self aware. Dude was just making a silly video out of a stream clip.

Docker desktop has a license that restricts commercial use depending on the size of your company/employer.

Use Colima to be on the safe side.

The difference from the perspective of the US is that it's spyware from a potentially malicious foreign state. China bans US tech companies as well, TikTok took advantage of the US having a much more open market and the state decided that they were acting in bad faith.

Likely going in for the pedal recall to be completely fair.

Still wild that they managed to fuck that up by using glue and having the metal traction pad slide onto the pedal instead of latching or being crimped or screwed in.

They go through the trouble of having a second motor for the steer by wire in case of a failure, but they can't make a pedal apparently.

Zig and Rust come to mind, at least for replacements for low level languages.

Because the app store and all of its marketing is a huge source of revenue for them. Giving up even the smallest portion of that market goes against their company goal of: number go up.

This is why disabling downvotes on a site fueled by user content is a bad idea.

I'm allergic, this reads as a threat.

You accidentally added a letter there and the meaning of your comment has changed dramatically.

Yes because they want to be compatible with what people learn on. So if they want improvements that benefit them they have to put those improvements into upstream.

This is how open source is supposed to work.

You are absolutely the kind of person I'd expect to find using Lemmy instead of Reddit. It's good to see someone fairly reputable in the modding space over here.

Depends what we're substituting those templated values for.

I think the idea is that the tech will improve. The flaws aren't features, they're problems to work out.

The real issue facing our society today is the lack of equal representation for jiggle physics for penis havers.

The NFC reader isn't on the sticks, so I don't see why they wouldn't.
