Every company’s lineup these days:

Pro > Pro Max > Pro Max Ultra > Pro Max Ultra Black Edition

Better headline: Dell kills all brands

Given that Dell has lost most of it’s old reputation in the last couple of years, not surprising that radical moves were taken. Trying to navigate Dells product range was a quick way to get a headache.

Lemmy may be free to access, but certainly not free to host. Am I paying for it personally? No, but someone is.

Kind reminder to donate to whoever is hosting your instance. Covering a share of costs increases the chances they will continue running it.

I’m using their optimized x64v4 repos on an otherwise plain Arch. No idea about any performance difference, I just want to make sure all the CPU progress in recent years doesn’t go to waste.

Ah, the myth of infinite growth again. I guess the majority of Chinese people have a smartphone by now, why would they constantly buy new ones

Wow, good writing. A bit over the top though, a real racist idiot wouldn’t be so extremely offensively stupid.

Weakness, definitely. The range of “permitted” ideas is way too narrow.
I tend to agree with most common political stances on Lemmy, but still I feel I’m self-censoring occasionally.

Many instances intentionally want an echo chamber. Posts and comments are often deleted even if they’re not abusive, if they are ideologically opposed.

I don’t know how it could get any worse than now. Basically we’re all in echo chambers whichever platform you use. Including Lemmy.

Agreement with “consensus” of whatever bucket you’re placed into is rewarded, and disagreement is punished. Even if only by upvote/downvote. Switching platforms won’t change much.

If someone really does nothing, it’s really obvious. You don’t need statistical analysis to determine who it is, just ask their teammates. Developers don’t work in isolation. Actually, it’s a very collaborative job where you’re in constant interaction with other people. If someone doesn’t contribute their fair share, it’s going to be obvious very quickly.

The problem is often a lack of mechanism to act on it. Sure everyone might complain about a coworker, but once a person is hired they become just a number and management doesn’t typically care about individual performance, only that all the spots in the org chart are filled.

Basically none. Both are mainstream instances, not practicing any extreme moderation policy.

You might have confused lemmy.world with lemmy.ml which does have some communities with bad reputation.

There’s a huge difference between a tankie and a socialist:

• Socialist supports economic policy aimed at just distribution of resources
• Tankie supports fascist-like authoritarianism under a mask of socialism

Chat GPT is wonderful as a search engine for SO. It regurgitates the answers in a format easier to incorporate into your own project.

The thing I’m worried about is a lack of new answers. You need data to train an LLM, what to do if nobody is producing it?

👏

Makes sense from manufacturing and business perspective to refresh your offer every year. It doesn’t have to be a huge improvement, but technology slowly advances, there might be a better or cheaper manufacture for some components, etc.

On the other hand there no reason for any individual to be buying a new phone so often. Software support must be a thing - there’s no reason for a phone to become obsolete after 2 years because of the software. It’s a computer, you can update the OS almost indefinitely.

The only thing changed between photos is clothing and pose. Is that gender? Well maybe it is, but it’s useless for classification.

It’s good to have competition. Dropbox has to rethink their plan if they want to keep existing

It’s such a harmful aspect of American culture not just in this case - they treat White and Black people as fundamentally different and separate, and each must have it’s own kind of healthcare.

I think it’s not even intentional, or not as much as claimed, but a consequence of the algorithmic bubble .

For example on Meta platforms I only get pro-palestinian content, I still haven’t seen an explicitly pro-israeli publication. But many people complain about pro-palestinian ban, so it leads me to a conclusion that it’s something else.

Cursor is not really anything that I feel a need to customize. It’s a pointer that changes shape according to context, and the default implementations usually do it at least decently.

TIL Winamp was still active as a project
