Even if this event is a bit old, I think I see the point in reposting it. A right-wing liar will repeat a lie often enough, and that repetition will embed that idea in people's heads.

This is truth, and it is so incredibly relevant to our situation right now. Maybe it is a few months old, but we need to internalize on a visceral level that j6 participants are criminals who were brought before the law and rightfully punished for offenses against all of us. This needs to be publicised, and if it means we see this exact article (and hopefully similar ones for others involved) over and over again, then that's the way it has to be.

Yeah, nothing is preventing the same device from having a big touchscreen and a bunch of buttons at the same time.

On the other hand, buttons give tactile feedback that a screen will never, ever, ever give.

It is very much to Ukraine's benefit to drag out this war if the alternative is Russian subjucation.

If on the other hand the alternative you are seeking is flooding Ukraine with Western-provided weapons to the point that they annihilate the invaders and win quickly.. yeah, that would be better for Ukraine than a drawn-out war.

Agreed. If you have extremely inexperienced politicians, your end result is that they are easily manipulated by whatever or whoever gets to whisper in their ear, like said lobbyists.

Honestly, this.

The economics of the world are such that people need to be paid for the content they produce. Having a direct relationship between me as the consumer and them as the producer is the way we don't get shit like all of the ad-based spyware that surrounds shit like Facebook. It won't completely prevent it, but it gives a good business plan for it not to happen.

I'd vastly prefer something that didn't require some megacorp as evil as Amazon. But.. this could actually make as much sense as is possible with our current economic system.

Not a dumb question if you haven't been keeping up.

The Steam Deck runs Linux and not Windows by default. (It can be loaded by the user if desired.)

Given their desire for a nearly-console-like experience, they put in a bunch of effort into the Proton compatibility layer to get Windows games to work here. It's not perfect, but it really is a very good experience at this point.

I personally do have a fairly powerful Windows desktop, but the vast majority of my gaming is on Linux on my Steam Deck now.

Elon singlehandedly decimated the future of the Supercharger network, and by extension the future of Tesla.

These are actually standard English title capitalization rules. Most words are capitalized, save for grammatical articles.

No.

DRM is an artificial obstacle put in place to get in the way of something entirely technologically possible.

The elements discussed here are just the natural steps to perform an action outside of the standard workflow, and are actually of reasonable difficulty. Saying "you are free to do it, but I'm not going to help you" is the exact opposite of DRM.

When the volume of potentially relevant and interesting content is enormous to the point that a standard human brain can't possibly hope to filter through all of it in reasonable time, the algorithm makes plenty of sense.

I just want a fair algorithm that represents what is best for me and us.

Seriously.

There is always the chance of entering a discussion with someone who disagrees with your "obvious" assertions and also may have the ability to change something. It is always good for someone to actually go and look to prove your point with real verifiable evidence instead of just going "well obviously I'm right" and ending it there.

Yeah, the problem there is the enormous power base someone amasses by being in power for decades. Any other person has an incredibly narrow chance regardless of how competent and fit for purpose they are.

The Pixel series has a ton of postprocessing integrated into the photography. It usually results in something people find eye-popping, but I suppose this is the inevitable result when it sees something unfamiliar.

It means "functioning as expected".

Who do you think is in the militia?

Lower Decks is still in production, and there will be plenty more.

I dunno, maybe we need something more General.

In other words, we're screwed and everyone else is double-screwed.

The level 3 autonomy is under extremely limited circumstances, which are basically on the bighway under 40 mph. These are basically the safest possible conditions to have level 3, and it is the right place to start.

"It doesn't matter if someone occasionally steals your bike" is.. one hell of a crap take.
