The flagship communities are quite alive, but the niche communities have not really taken off. I am talking from both the absence of such communities, and my experience trying to migrate !fluidmechanics. The subreddit has around 10k humans (or bots).

It is all AI hype isn't it?

If it is a pay what you want model I am all for it. This would be similar to how elementary OS st

The problem with a fixed price is you have to always calibrate it according to the economy of the user's geolocation. What is cheap for a person from a developed world may be unaffordable for a third world county.

He was from the future. Look, he's reading from a book made of flexible glowing paper and not flat tablets like we primitive people do.

Also punched cards had around 80 columns, which put a hard limit on the number of characters per line.

This will be the headline a month later:

Cara's monthly active users down to a few thousands. Here's why.

Accessible for everyone.

If the desktop UX has very good screen readers, keyboard navigation, voice to text etc., I believe its benefits would automatically spill over to all.

Also it would retain the UI / UX experts who become forced to abandon Linux for macOS which maintains a niche in this.

2036 to 2038 is gonna be wicked.

We are free to learn, but learning is not free.

Freedom vs cost. One cannot pickup a skill without time, effort and more importantly access to guidance and a vast library of content. Same applies to man or machine. The difference is how corporations have essentially reinvented piracy to facilitate their selfish ends after decades of dictating what's right with DMCA, DRM and what not.

It exists, kind of. Python has this construct

for item in iterable:
    ...
else:
     ...

which always puzzles me, since it depends on a break statement execution. I always have to look it up when the else block is executed.

We need more tips like this to fool the next ChatGPT.

What is dead may never die.

Voice to Text system for Linux.

After Sayboard for Android, it seems plausible to get a local voice recongnition system for PC too.

It is important to recall of IPCC's mission to be "policy neutral while being policy relevant and never policy prescriptive". They try their best to be scientifically accurate, discuss the state and suggest solutions. One can wonder why IPCC won't take sides and but that's the way it has always been. The burden of what to do with their message is always upon the commons.

This statement is on a similar vein. While it was possibly guided at consoling common people from climate grief, it has all the risks of being misquoted.

If you press . while browsing github.com, it redirects to github.dev, which is a web VSCode too. Same thing in Gitlab.

If everyone is dropping in market shares, who's gaining?

The theme is FAIR and open-science and more specifically Research Software management.

The sound of silence. Literally.

Taxes! But different. This channel is very informative:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEdx1BIb1x0

The first Episode of Sabrina Live! is called How the Rich Don't Pay Taxes. All the rich need to do is use three simple steps: "Buy, Borrow, Die." In this episode, Rich Kid attempts to buy a $50 video game after purchasing a $1 Pokemon card. He then leaves his Pokemon card to his son - Rich Kid II.

You could instead use the Web Archives extension. Works for most common paywalls.

Seems like this can be done in the browser using a user agent switcher.

Lemmyverse? How will that exist in the Fediverse?

Fediverse > Lemmy Galaxy / Cluster?

Strange argument... how does that prevent checks versus Windows 7, 8 and 1* all of which would be less than 9.

Yes we can. For example, https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms-webui

An endorsement from Geoff Vallis? This might be interesting.

Wallabag is like Pocket but self hosted and better.

I wouldn't say that he is the leading authority, but he is a well known researcher in atmospheric and ocean sciences. His book is the go to book for graduate studies in the subject, so he is well versed in the topic.

Better? Firefox Translations does it locally without sending data to the cloud. The languages it support are very few though

It's over Anakin, I have the high ground

It is not, Fairphone already does this.

iNaturalist is a similar non-profit run app and identifies all living things: trees, flowers, bugs, birds etc.

I just listened to the recorded phone call where Trump mentions this. Yes, he knew that he lost, but he was (at least back then) on a delusion that somehow the votes were either forged/miscounted etc. ... all based on rumours from Trump media.

This is amazing. I never knew that Egyptian hieroglyphs had names for kingdoms in the Indian subcontinent.

Sync to Thunderbird. Tools > Export.

I know it is not ideal, but it works as long as Thunderbird is around.

For now.

Tagline for Lemmy (every social media in existence)

While you cannot uninstall it, you should be able to disable Google Assistant and the Google app. That should cripple its access to such features.
