Facial recognition confirmed he was a criminal and the scanner confirmed he had a gun! Of course we opened fire instantly. How could we have known it was just some guy with a water bottle?

Yeah this is one of those things where accessibility settings can probably get you 90% there but screenshots and machine learning can probably close the gap somewhat reliably (even if it’s much less efficient).

Perfect beautiful lies folks. Everyone knows it.

I can’t believe that there are people are out there just raw dogging the Internet with no AdBlock. The advertising is so aggressive and intrusive. I legitimately cannot tolerate using the Internet when 80% of the page is filled with attention grabbing bullshit.

The more I learn about Valve culture the more I realize they definitely have teams just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. I bet there are some really wild prototypes that we never get to see.

Running games at 800p targeting 40fps is a lot more viable than I would have expected just looking at the numbers. It looks great for a display that size and 40fps feels like it’s a lot closer to 60fps than it really is.

I get why people using it as their primary gaming device would want more power but as a secondary device for me it’s stellar.

Where else am I going to share the fun stuff I find with StumbleUpon?

If it was free and I just had to pay the subscription I’d think “Can’t my phone already do all this?”

Bazzite works so well out of the box that I don’t even have to think about drivers.

Newer Dell laptops I’ve worked on have them soldered on to the motherboard.

People tend to think of digital things as unchanging and permanent but that isn’t really the case. I’m fascinated by the concept of bit rot and other ways that digital things can disappear or degrade over time.

It’s good that flash is not still an essential part of the modern Internet but its death did firmly cut off an entire era of Internet culture that cannot be experienced in quite the same way.

I have yet to have any success with Bottles but I assume it’s because I don’t know what I’m doing and I’m trying with software known to be difficult.

I remote into a Windows PC for Fusion 360 and Affinity suite but if I could get those working on Linux I’d be in really good shape.

Everyone is stupid except for me.

Lemmy is definitely the most pain in the ass service that I self host. Most annoyingly when something goes wrong I can’t just go on Lemmy until I feel like fixing it.

I asked my employer provided AI assistant if this is true and it assured me that natural snowfall was disinformation invented by leftists in order to destroy our capitalist utopia.

This message brought to you by Jill Stein who pops up every four years to grift money and accomplish nothing except cozying up to Putin. I guess there is still the brain worm dead animal guy?

Third parties in the US are unserious. I wish that weren’t the case but that’s the reality.

They’re not expecting any one person to implement the whole thing.

Hahaha, tell that to leadership! 😩

I’ve not tried GPT4ALL but Ollama combined with Open WebUI is really great for selfhosted LLMs and can run with podman. I’m running Bazzite too and this is what I do.

I see there is an m.2 slot too with what looks to be a Kingston SSD.

I’m still confused what era this laptop is from. It might be a SATA m.2.
