I used to purchase every other release of CoD to play with my son in local multiplayer split screen, but after the last MWII I'm done. I feel ripped off by this product and fear the direction is not one that I'm too interested in anymore.

I tried to be a tumblr user to learn what it's all about. I never got the feeling that engagement was authentic, it always felt like it was interacting with bots or posting into a black hole.

Somehow the Tumblr app on my phone needed my password again to login so I just deleted the app instead.

In this meme, is the cool looking guy you or him?

Hey, Lemmy user in this thread: you're likely in the top 0.1% expertise of all computer users worldwide.

This prompt is aimed at my boomer dad, who wouldn't know what that funny icon is but read somewhere to close his apps for better speed. If his OneDrive docs disappear, I'll get a call about it. At the same time, Microsoft probably can't sell anything to my dad ever again, except his Office 365 subscription, so that makes him the product.

Microsoft is usually pretty good at letting tech users disable this kind of stuff with powershell commands or registry keys, which you already know how to do. And of course businesses join windows PCs to domains and disable this stuff centrally too.

I checked it out a few times over the years, but was put off by the behavior of some of the people. The concept is fascinating because, as the founder mentions in his letter, there IS some safety in anonymity and expressing yourself more authentically without the physical risk is possible.

Humans mostly have "acceptable behavior" filters in public, but this system also stripped many of those away. Which led to a lot of people incorrectly assuming they could do bad stuff on this platform without consequences.

I think it's too bad this is the way it's got to go. Despite not really being a user, Omegle feels like part of Internet 1.5.

I think the GOP has rolled out it's freshest candidates and they are running now.

I don't think AI will dramatically change the experiences we have interacting with businesses or content creators - we'll still evaluate their output with the same metrics we use now.

But as a tool it vastly accelerates a lot of old processes that were mundane or mentally exhausting. Previously we overcame these with an army of educated workers who - although skilled - were performing a function that turns out to be repeatable with enough silicon. Tasks like basic writing, basic research, basic programming, image/video/audio editing.

These are all tasks that never really required an incredible amount of experience if you had the right tools, and now one of those tools is "AI" as we are calling it, which does a halfway decent job with nearly zero effort. A whole lot less effort than before.

The highly skilled and educated will continue to be fine - they can work a lot faster now and instead of spending a lot of time on these mundane tasks, can spend more on the higher level stuff. The people who are still moving up the skill levels will have to go a lot further in their education before their value is as apparent.

Just sabre rattling?

It seems like the only one that keeps reminding everybody else they have nukes is Russia.

Pave paradise, put up a parking lot.

LinkedIn has $10 Billion to invest? Wow, they are bigger than I assumed.

These kind of ultra niche subs really need a huge audience. I'm afraid contributors would be posting in the dark for a while if it was here.

Preface that I have no solutions to offer to the conflict.

But if a school bully takes your lunch one too many times, he's eventually gonna get punched in the face. But in this case, Hamas is too underpowered to be the school bully.

It's more like the mosquito that just won't stop buzzing in your ear even though you are traipsing in his forest. Except this mosquito flies with 2m of his closest brothers and sisters and your response is to burn his forest down.

I don't know what I'm trying to say. Hamas has annoyed Israel one too many times and now is getting an angry, irrational response with tons of collateral damage. Not a calculated response.

Perhaps the only thing I can offer is that the response from Israel isn't all that irrational. Every person can be driven to the point of breaking and lashing out.

Israel has obviously completely had it with Hamas and would rather bear the international consequences of wiping Gaza off the map instead of facing one more rocket across that border. Honestly that is a pretty fucking huge miscalculation for Hamas. Because Israel is a much better international diplomat and the winner gets to write the history book.

When you have two kids on the school yard that are lashing out, the principal comes along and makes sure neither crosses the others path again. That may be how this ends, but I fear the world doesn't care enough about either side to get involved that way.

There are sometimes some strange issues with office construction.

There might be no plumbing in the locations people will want for toilets and baths and kitchens in the individual suites away from the core of the building. Same goes for retrofitted laundry facilities.

HVAC systems (in the US anyways) are often centrallized and might need a lot of retrofitting to make it work like a condo/apartment.

Kitchen ventilation

Windows might not open, can't get to a fresh air source

Aside from that stuff, the issue of empty office buildings while we are experiencing unsustainable housing markets is begging for a solution to address the demand.

There will probably be a handy sum to be earned for construction companies who get efficient at conversions.

What if you need to remember how to procreate? I hear there are a number of informative videos about how to out there.

Of course they are, Google is an ad company.

The early adopters of LLM AI pay OpenAI $20/month with pleasure to use an adfree ChatGPT, but they represent a microscopic fraction of total internet users.

Google might be able to create a search product that looks like ChatGPT and partially answers the question with a relavent ad spot in return for that user NOT paying $20/month.

If Google has this would you use it and cancel your OpenAI subscription?

In this particular case it's because visa applicants aren't US citizens, so they're subject to immigration law which is massively intrusive.

My gf applied for an American tourist visa and had to show bank statements, explain where she's going and why, get a letter from her employer showing her job is stable, and report every name, job, degree, and home she'd lived in for the last number of years. It was intense.

But we Americans probably want this level of scrutiny because once foreigners are on US soil it's tough to find the ones who disappear and dont leave when the time's up.

Social media may very well reveal false visa application details.

I know, I was thinking that about Lemmy too. An issue or not we don't yet know!

Chinese buffet, he was at. Tsingtao he drank. Piss, not shit, he likely tasted.

“It was an honest mistake. And I expect the situation to be resolved shortly,” Wilson said in the statement.

Wilson said in the statement that when the plane landed in Hong Kong, he “immediately went to customs officials and called their attention to the issue.”

I hope he doesn't assume his status as an American politician will solve the matter. According to the article he volunteered the information. But according to the linked article at RTHK the weapon was found by a customs agent.
