Good thing by then we'll have oracle LLM. You may only use it for writing software. But we'll definitely charge you for answering questions about life the universe and everything.

That'll be all your profit this year minus the C-level bonuses please.

Average CTO: what a steal!

I checked out my old Hotmail account and there's somebody in china trying to access it non stop.

It's protected with a strong password and 2fa. But it still makes me uneasy. I just wish I could geo block the attempts or something.

This. They're definitely barking up the wrong tree here. The problem isn't that government agencies can simply buy it from brokers. The problem is that companies and data brokers can collect all this data in the first place.

I was ridiculed for wearing a cheap shirt to my dissertation defense in college by somebody wearing a Hugo boss shirt.

I figured I could buy 10 shirts for the duration of his one shirt. He bent over to tie his shoe and the shirt ripped.

All was well that day.

Learned something new. Very cool!

Just needed to boot the USB drive as UEFI rather than just boot from the USB drive. I swear these are hurdles for the sake of creating them...

Installed battle.net as a non-steam app and forcing it to use proton. It's installing and I haven't had to do anything. That's a good start at least.

I had removed the partition and now I'm having a PITA to get PopOs to install at all.

"This GPT partition label contains no BIOS boot partition".

I'll need to figure out what's wrong there.

Thanks for the answer!

What is it used for then? Face recognition?

Edit: honest question before I come off as agressive :)

Yeah I had it on dual boot for a while, but I rarely started it. I'd need to put some effort into it. Win10 currently isn't so bad ( for gaming ).

But I am happy to see Linux gaming picking up.

I know. It's the other platforms I'm worried about :D. Although I've kind of stopped playing all blizzard their other games.

Maybe I'll give it another go at one point.

I tried installing it through lutris, first the battle.net client and then hots but it just failed to install.

I'd have to reinstall Linux and see exactly what the issue is. I probably missed one of the prerequisites.

I read something on the Linux gaming Lemmy group where they are planning on combining the fixes so not every platform ( bottles, lutris, steam ) has to maintain their own scripts to fix things.

I'd need to actually put some effort into figuring out why it didn't work.

And sending out candy crush invites

Hmmm. I mainly play heroes of the storm at the moment and I've had issues getting that to work. While the steam games seem to work great I really feel like it needs some more polishing.

The work that has been done on it is stellar though. Especially considering it's the publishers not supporting Linux systems.

Everything on my steam deck works great though thanks to valve.

But my desktop... Not sure if I'm ready for that yet. :/

From my experience on the road it actually happens with most brands and BMWs specifically.

People also seemed to have forgotten that you're supposed to use it to indicate what you are planning to do and not what you're doing.

I can see you're changing lanes. I just want to know you're planning on doing that so I can anticipate ( like break a little ) rather than being cut off and having to slam my brakes.

Or that I know you'll slow down because you want to take turn, rather than randomly breaking.

Fuck i hate drivers. And I wish I could just work from home more days. The only reason I'm not is because they want, not need, me at the office 3/5.

Holy shit. I just googled Thunderbird and it is looking sleek AF.

I couldn't use it in the past at work since they only supported "modern" auth methods and no IMAP/pop3.

Firefox didn't support it back then and I was stuck with evolution. Which isn't bad functionally. It just still looks like it was designed in the 90s.

I'm not using any email client privately atm. But it's nice to see the UI also got some love.

I don't think you can a sim card anonymously in europe. You might be able to find some online, though I have no idea:

- how legal they are

- if they function at all/normally

At least in my country ( which isn't one you listed ) you cannot buy an anonymous SIM card in shops due to some anti terrorism law ( iirc ).

I thought it was like that for the whole of Europe, but I could be wrong.

Apparently there are still EU countries where you can buy anonymous SIMs.

They dropped support for it. Not sure why. It used to be supported.

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's incredible how the article title tries to spin it...

One of the ISPs here gave you email addresses from Skynet ( skynet.be ).

Little did we know.....
