This is a bit offtopic. I’d rather have more content on Linux in and on itself than these rants against a corporate OS. Thread locked.

Technology@lemmy.world•OnePlus update blocks downgrades and custom ROMs by blowing a fuseEnglish
2·30 days agoYeah, this was the case shortly after they release of model 5T or around thst time. That’s when they stopped being the only company that would provide instructions to root your device, and guess what… Back then, if you rooted your device the warranty was still valid!

Technology@lemmy.world•Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI splurgeEnglish
4·1 month agoLet’s use AI to replace the missing CEOs when we compost billionaires!!!
Only that they give you the mere gesture of a carrot: the american “dream”.
Get out of bed, wokies!!

Technology@lemmy.world•A generation taught not to think: AI in the classroomEnglish
9·1 month agoThis. (Offline too.)
Which generation did we really taught critical thinking to? In general, those “thinkers” or people with nice research skills (e.g. reading comprehension and other traits) were always a minority within each generation. And I agree there will be less now with AI. But we have no polls or measurement, so the title goes a little clickbaity, in resonance to the generalized discomfort towards a new technology that schools haven’t accomodated yet (e.g. all kind of solutions are seen in the wild)
I reckon it was the same with arithmetislcs and calculators in the past. We were able to deal with that! (so that whatever proportion of people that graduates knowing arithmetics with each generation didn’t shrink “too much”.)
If we are considering possible scenarios, let’s be optimistic too.
AI (discounting other problems like their ecological footprint) may not be that bad on our educational systems once we adjust…
A sailor once told me the anchor tattoo represented their will to end up in the bottom of the sea if he ever drowned or their ship sinked. This was because, as he put it, the other option would be having their family members see his body in terrible shape.
This person tended to tell exagerated stories, but still… I was young and believed it ever since. Can any other people confirm they heard the same? I would like to know :)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When/how frequently do you replace your phone with a new one?
1·2 months agoOn average every 5 years. The battery life is always the issue. I will get a fairphone next time…
F*ck those nazi apologists. Instead of framework rather get a linux laptop e.g. starlabs. Oh, repairability… Yeah, it hurts me too.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Introducing Hypermind: A fully decentralized, P2P, high-availability solution to a problem that doesn't exist.English
1·2 months agoI don’t like those projects either. Scuttlebut and cjdns looked more “profesional” to my ignorant eyes. I bring these up because I’d like to hear your comments. I will check 10fingers now…

Technology@lemmy.world•Researchers Are Hunting America for Hidden DatacentersEnglish
1·2 months agoI believe “secret” is a better word, it conveys the intention of hiding them as executed by the corporate owners with the government’s compliance
To me that’s a hint that AI generated the alt text. I believe that’s a great use for it.

Canada@lemmy.ca•An almost inexhaustible reserve of lithium discovered in Canada
1·2 months agoI hope this doesn’t ruin peoples lifes. And if it affects anyone in Canada, I hope their revisit those laws on environmental pollution. There’s a reason why all the mining companies are in that country. Ecocide in third world countries is driven by that “blind spot” in their laws and I’m certain the majority of canadians don’t have the least idea of their complicity.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My mom says that people who don't have "value" don't deserve to live and that "depression" is just an excuse for laziness. What's is your rebuttal for it?
1·2 months agoShe’s giving you the most difficult life lesson. I am almost 40 and to this day I dread to ‘actively hear’ many words my dad has to say about me or my decisions. It’s a difficult lesson because they are our caregivers and as such they did many good deeds. But at some point we need to put our own mental health above anyone else’s rant, rage, or toxicity. We don’t owe them shit. After that leap, you may be able to come back to the issue that they were addressing with their comments and reflect upon the issue itself on your own and/ or with the help of others (friends, therapist, chatgpt?? I wouldn’t recommend the latter but it may be a good starting point and better than nothing…)
adr1an@programming.devtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•wish i would have been a child like thatEnglish
3·2 months agoOh, isn’t the question a wordplay? btrfs…
Nah bro. They are joking as per the post. All these are lyrics in Hannah Montana songs!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats the worst book anyone has ever recommended you?
1·2 months agoWe are all victims of Jehova Witnesses, Evangelists, and other religions that take preaching/ contagion as a core value/ sacred activity for their members…
The rest of the world may call it friendsgiving and celebrate it anyway ;)
This. I have started to wonder if yawns are actually a way to wake up. We know little about them. Some brain scans showed that we refresh the blood around our brain, like changing the water in a fish bowl.
Are you saying that any other instances are tolerant with Nazis/ Facism? Do any of these other instances host Nazi/ Facist communities too? If you were able to elaborate, I’m certain many people would be interested into knowing which communities or instances to de-federate (e.g. like many admins already did to hexbear).
PS. I can’t find it now, but there was a website like https://lemmyverse.net/ that showed the top instances that were defederated from the rest, and some “4chan-like” scene was around… if anyone remember which website I am talking about and could share, it would be great too. Thanks


















I believe it’s the internalized opression. They also want to be pedophiles, and have full impunity.
