Why? Passenger trains and subways are already very safe thanks to remote control & monitoring systems, Deadman's switches etc. Many urban rail sstems don't use drivers at all! Is there a subway accident from the past 20 years that could have been prevented with an extra driver?

Sure, no algorithm is able to extract any more information from a single photo. But how about combining detail caught in multiple frames of video? Some phones already do this kind of thing, getting multiple samples for highly zoomed photos thanks to camera shake.

Still, the problem remains that the results from a cherry-picked algorithm or outright hand-crafted pics may be presented.

Laser printers more accurately "bake paper so that number powder sticks to it"

I wonder if there is a notification ad blocker with community-submittted sets of regex patterns that root users can use.

Finally we know...

Die Sammlung wurde von einem deutschen Verlag verbreitet, die Bilder sind aber meistens US-Amerikanisch basiert (z. B. Bilder von Erde sehen immer so 🌎 aus). Ich habe nur drei deutschsprächige Bilder da gefunden! Denn sie komprimiert nur etwa 5-10 MB (abhängig von Methode) enthält, wurden auf dem CD-Version ein paar Stücke Shareware für Bildbearbeitung und Spiele mit reingeworfen, zusammen ist das aber nur etwa 33 MB, oder 5% Kapazität des CD-ROMs. Trotzdem haben sie mindestens 3 solche Volumen separat verkäuft! Und für 30 DM auch kleine Bücher mit Bildindex (denn sie von Disketten langsam laden) und Einleitung zum englischsprächigen Software. Die erste habe ich, die originale Datein aber nicht. Die Satire gegen IBM ist überall, meistens aber um 052-065, was ironisch ist, denn das Buch sich „5000 Cliparts für PC und Amiga“ nennt.

If you look at the collection, it is apparent that they often group unrelated clipart into one picture. Therefore, the four icons, the penguin, the bow and the "comic" panel are likely completely irrelevant to each other. Despite being bundled with DOS software, the monochrome pictures are likely best suited for the Mac's high-res monochrome screen, and many seem to have been made by Mac fans mocking PC users in comics like these. They would hot have known about Tux the Linux penguin back then so it's a generic penguin that does not represent Linux (but appears next to a robotic Mac in one picture??)

As for how the comic is supposed to be funny, I'd guess that the point is how difficult setting up a PC used to be(?) No idea if the thought bubble with the pirate is relevant but it is in a dithered area, meaning it's likely not meant to be cut and pasted elsewhere.

I cannot stop laughing. Peak comedy.

That’s exactly what Microsoft did in the 1990s after an antitrust lawsuit for hindering free browser selection: integrated Internet Explorer into Explorer to have an excuse for having it preinstalled.

The EU is taking similar steps but I tgink Edge WebView will stay essential. Removing it on a laptop broke biometrics (aka Windows Hello: fingerprint sensor and face recognition) and I had to use a restore point. Seems sketchy to use a browser engine for essential security features – at this point, I would hope I had triggered some OS tamper-detection because the alternative is an OS whose login system is infected with an unpopular browser not because it enhances security but out of spite, and I don't think exploiting legal loopholes leads to most secure solutions.

Duh. To be honest, should have checked before making the post.
Are you WestEnd?

I once got Top 7 Luxury Cruise in (Landlocked) Czech Republic from Microsoft. Also, The Flight Price From %user.location% (village of 200 people) To New York Will Surprise You

Thanks. I should have checked earlier before making a fool of myself. A lesson for me, I guess.

Thanks. Maybe I should go buy another emotional support Blåhaj, the big one this time.

Very wholesome thread for someone who could well be an IRL Joker and @ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world.

Oh, and I love the community you moderate. Better fuel Huel!

Thank you for your kind words.

Hardship is part of life. I have more than I would like right now but that's just how I am. Dunno, maybe should place myself preventively on suicide watch.

At least it's a temporary, below minimum wage job so I don't mind too much if the computer goes up in flames and I get fired. It will get wiped for the next wagie anyway.

MSER does not uninstall Edge BTW

Thanks, finally someome who understands (I don't mind that you disagree, lots of people IRL do)
