There are tons more applications in the workplace. For example, one of the people in my team is dyslexic and sometimes needs to write reports that are a few pages long. For him, having the super-autocorrect tidy up his grammar makes a big difference.

Sometimes I have a list of say 200 software changes that would be a pain to summarise, but where it's intuitively easy for me to know if a summary is right. For something like a changelog I can roll the dice with the hallucination machine until I get a correct summary, then tidy it up. That takes less than a tenth of the time than writing it myself.

Sometimes writing is necessary and there's no way to cut down the drivel unfortunately. Talking about professional settings of course - having the Large Autocorrect writing a blog post or a poem for you is a total misuse of the tool in my opinion.

To be fair, it's such a load of nonsense that it isn't really worth reading...

At least those are big, the ones that woman is wearing have both a thick and small frame which makes a truly horrible effect.

I always was on the "nerd" side at school but boy do those faces look punchable.

No, I think that's talking about Aria Babu, a person from London who's changed the focus of her career to become a "pronatalist". The woman in the photos is Simone Collins, and I haven't read about her age. I'm usually the kind that reads the whole articles on links but I could only bring myself to skim through this lunacy.

After the 6th of Jan, I can't be convinced that the USA takes treason seriously.

No, -r and -f are two different switches. -r is recursive, used so that it also removes folders within the directory. -f is force (so overriding all confirmations, etc).

Do a search on yourself - try to find out your real identity based on information online, and do it as thoroughly as if you were searching for your worst enemy.

If you can find who you are yourself, chances are they will.

Make sure you don't have anything "hairy" tied to an email with an email address you'd use for anything uncompromising. E.g. keep the email you use to login on Lemmy and the email you use to login on netflix separate.

Use 2 factor authentication and a password manager. Treat your password leaks seriously and consider any leaked accounts burnt - assume the details you had in there are now known.

Avoid using your real name on anything you can.

Best wishes. Take care my friend!

I don't care if it's single ply. I just fold tp until it has the appropriate thickness anyway.

If it's single ply, I just use a lot of TP and make it many-ply.

Need more storage for windows bloat...

I had that too. When you're a cis male adult you've had decades of social conditioning telling you that's not allowed. I'm gay but being born in Spain I was brought up in a traditional macho culture. I'd "pass" except for those with the most finely tuned gaydar, not because I tried hiding it by the time I realised but because I was conditioned to fit in the straight cis male behaviour box.

It took me a few years of unlearning trying to shake it off myself and what helped most, a loving partner who is in tune with his emotions. I have gotten immensely better at understanding and expressing my emotions, verbally or otherwise, and also doing that without channelling them into "proxy" emotions that are acceptable for macho expectations and culture.

Lessons will be available at least, even if nobody decides to take away anything from them.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.

Not just sweet, but surprisingly for Apple, the M4 Mac mini is even decent value for money. If you want to buy a similar non-mac machine you can't do it for any less money. For ≈$1500, the comparable HP Z2 Mini comes with 16 GB of RAM and an 8 GB Nvidia T1000. For that price the Mac Mini comes with 24 GB of memory, shared but available to the GPU.

It's okay. He wasn't a CEO so all good. Not like inmates deserve human rights or anything. /s

I think that's exactly what's needed, something that makes it mainstream without compromises. For example, if it came as standard with the PS6 and people could use it with all their games such as call of duty.

I don't see what could be the tipping point that makes this happen; Sony certainly isn't going to bundle a headset with the PS6, although I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo eventually tried something like this. What I know is that a legless version of the Wii avatars or a $3000 headset that requires you to carry a battery in your pocket wired to your head ain't it.

I think it might have been because of the add-ons compatibility then.

I moved from Fennec to Iceraven for some reason I can't remember (frequency of updates?). Since I can't remember off the top of my head I'll just say, maybe consider Iceraven too and research whether it's a good alternative for you.

Polestar sells something for a similar price and better quality, and without awkward associations with a billionaire nazi.

Great western railway operates like this, offering you a "mystery seat" regardless of whether they've sold 120% of the seats in the train.
