Same. I can barely even tell what “good” Ubuntu brings to the table other than the task bar icons, which I just add in with am extension.

Fun story from before Rust was getting popular (years ago). So, I did a performance comparison to determine what language we should write our rules engine in. I compared Go, Rust, Node, and some others not worth mentioning.

At the time, I had experience with all but Rust.

Even knowing nothing, and working from scratch, the Rust POC was significantly faster. Just way, way, better.

That being said, I still chose Go due to productivity based on the language knowledge of the team to ease the transition (Go was closer to what they knew already), and while it was good for them to learn Go, I look back on it and realize Rust would have been a great opportunity to invest in their careers and have them learn it instead.

A hindsight is 20/20 experience for me.

But, is this bad? Google makes a crap-ton of revenue compared to publishers who are now struggling with AI content competition. They need revenue to pay journalists.

Hard to define the good guys on this one.

Note: It’s also a misrepresentation. The EU asked Google to do this.

This is the opposite of what you think it is.

Google says it’s running the “time-limited” test because EU regulators and publishers “have asked for additional data about the effect of news content in Search.” The company says it will continue to show results from websites and news publishers located outside the EU, and it will resume showing results from EU news publishers once the test ends.

This is the EU testing what it would be like if they ditched Google, not Google testing what it would be like without the EU. The test also doesn’t impact the US.

Go to the source. Debian.

They also have a video on making your own tiles. Crafting a set together could be a fun and rewarding experience, and could compliment a nice purchased set.

If you live on the line, or move north/west, it’s now “you all”.

Well, this was the Facebook origin story, so anyone on Threads deserves it.

The only thing it does better than Slack: A list of all my chats, most recent at the top, without any disappearing or grouped in some weird way. Slack annoys me.

Be local. A voice at a local meeting has the potential to have more impact in your life than your side being president. This is why my feed will start in 2-weeks, vs 4-years, no matter how much I want to keep that filter on 😀

You mean Future-X?

Pretty sure if they joined mastadon.social, they’d be fine. Plus the clout for mastadon would be woth the orgs investment if it was needed, though their infrastructure would likely be fine. We’re not talking millions of viewers.

Unfortunately no, at least not that I can still find. It was really just a lap tray and I used industrial Velcro with adhesive on the back, along with an adhesive mousepad. The mouse holder is just from the box it came in.

The challenge was the lack of wireless for the single-handed hardware keyboard at the time, so a USB2BT module was needed, and those knobs I added at the top were for wrapping a wire from a tiny USB2.0 Hub for if I wanted to be wired.

Doing it again it would be 100% wireless with magnetic quick charge connectors on all the elements. (I got a million of them of different angles off Aliexpress and have them on all my travel items).

They don’t need to do any of that. Just make an account on any instance and go forth.

If you can leave X, you can change instances if needed in the future, too.

Lemmy, though I admit two days ago I put on political filters. I’ll open the flood gates again in a couple weeks.

That being said, before Lemmy I hadn’t used main stream social outside of Reddit for years anyway.

Admittedly I did this years ago, and had to use USB to BT adapters which was janky. Wireless keyboards are much better now 😉

Ahhh yea. If I were to do this with a backpack I’d probably make something folding. Having the tray is super nice for couch visits.

Hear me out, you don’t want portable, you want transportable. I made this. It’s a lap tray with cushion underneath and a handle, and everything attaches to it.

Depends on you definition. I run OpenPilot in one vehicle.

Prefer?
