  • Exactly, but I found out that if you read the Chinese version (google translated link) then the content is very different.

    This not only answers my original question, but also highlights the irony that we trust English Wikipedia pages over social media comments, but not Chinese Wikipedia pages over social media comments.

    I was hoping someone with more knowledge about Wikipedia and how language-specific pages are vetted can help figure this one out.

  • Doesn't the wiki say the same thing, that it's considered a myth? English page instead of chinese: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

    Edit: trying to translate bits and it seems the pages are very different. I assumed different language versions of a page on Wikipedia are more or less the same, but that does not seem to be the case here

  • Remember what happened before the 2012 report?

    The 2010 suicides prompted 20 Chinese universities to compile an 83-page report on Foxconn, which they described as a "labor camp". Interviews of 1,800 Foxconn workers at 12 factories found evidence of illegal overtime and failure to report accidents. The report also criticized Foxconn's management style, which it called inhumane and abusive. Additionally, long working hours, discrimination towards Mainland Chinese workers by their Taiwanese coworkers, and a lack of working relationships were all presented as potential problems in the university report.

  • I rather trust random lemmings than I would trust an LLM. At least I can verify their claims independently, while LLMs hallucinate while citing sources.

    Edit: here's a cool YouTube channel to check out and learn from: Dad, how do I?

  • I thought the same, but the way the shot was framed made the Joy Cons look more like cars racing around. I wonder how that would work, actually.

  • Specs have been leaked before, starting way back in 2021 regarding the T239 SoC variant.

    Since then, especially recently with the motherboard leak, people have pieced together specs that make it ~11x more powerful, but that's looking at raw numbers and trying to fit that into something we currently know.

    Knowing Nintendo, it will be underpowered and underclocked to preserve cost, battery life and make it as stable as possible for the long run.

    Something different this time is the DLSS tech though. This might make games run easier no matter the raw numbers by allowing a lower native resolution without losing (much) visual acuity.

    But that's more a story for 3rd party developers, honestly, so I digress. I'll say I'm cautiously optimistic about the potential of the hardware.

  • If Nintendo would see it, they can still get it taken down. But I'll concede that as long as it goes under the radar, there's a chance for it to proliferate

  • Releasing something anonymously is not going to prevent a company from getting the content removed from the web server. Hosting companies have to act according to local laws, and if a company can abuse this (like DMCA) then releasing stuff anonymously is not going to change anything

  • But I still won’t judge a whole company based on the personal opinions of one of its employees.

    It's not a personal opinion:

    Notice how it says "here is our official response"

  • Would there be interest in the community for a Pinterest-like service on the Fediverse?

    For sure, if only out of spite for Pinterest poisoning image search results with low quality, unusable junk.

    I'd like to see actual content, with original credits and a way to credit them if it's a repost. Repin?

  • dark money
    noun

    funds raised for the purpose of influencing elections by non-profit organizations that are not required to disclose the identities of their donors. "more than $3 million in dark money poured into that race through non-profit groups"

  • Je hoeft ze niet samen aan te schaffen, je kunt bijvoorbeeld een kussen los regelen:

    Verder kan ik Thule wel aanraden, maar ik kan geen tas vinden incl zitje

  • Yeah that's fair, I saw McDonald's and I thought of ovens, so my brain accepted it as oven mitts.
