people on Lemmy could have some empathy and not just assume that everyone driving a Tesla is sanctioning anything that Elon Musk does.
Costs 1 EUR and takes 10sec to put a sticker on a Tesla that says "I bought this before Elon went mad" and plenty of people on Lemmy would understand I bet. It's more of a gesture to show that one having a Tesla does not support the actions of the its CEO. A Tesla without even a sticker on is assumed to be owned by someone who knows yet either does not care or even supports Musk.
True, but most CEOs are unknown to consumers, only to employees and share-holders. Usually there is a "culture" of a company that is a blend of PR, advertising, marketing, etc. Here Musk became associated with the brand though. Tesla existed before Musk and worked well... but was nowhere near a popular. I hate Musk yet I feel it's fair (and please if you have data showing I'm wrong, do share, I'd love to remove any wrongful attributed credit from him) to say he made Tesla enormously more popular than before he invested in it. So... you are right in most cases people buy cars, and other products, without knowing about the CEO but that specifically does not apply to Tesla where the hype precisely came from a self branded as IronMan.
If you tried Half-life: Alyx and don't find it revolutionary then I'd be curious to know what's enough for you. It's not popular, sure, but it doesn't mean the quality of the few experiences that do exist aren't legitimate.
Can you please share some models you printed this way? Curious to see. I have 3D printers at home and tried few 3D models e.g. PifHUD or TripoSR but never went all the way to printing any as I didn't find the quality sufficient. This was months ago or more so I imagine better models exist, also maybe you have a better workflow.
demanding that we prove that we’re using copilot to generate code
Because that's how one gets value right? It's not because the tool is so efficient people WANT to use it even though they should not (e.g. due to commercial secrets)... no instead you force them to use it. /s
Yep, being humble is THE key to learning. If people assume they know, they discard advice from people who actually invested time to learn about a topic... then they end up in a terrible place due to them cherishing their own ignorance. Very sad but also quite common.
uncomfortable to switch environments on a daily basis from home computing to workplace computing
How so? Most people just use a browser and edit basic documents. Once those apps are started the OS itself matters little, basic things like copy/paste or alt/tab work exactly the same. Chances are at work they don't even have the right to admin their machine so for "complex" things it's out of their reach there.
Linux is so difficult you guys, no one could possibly learn the command line.
In the vast VAST majority of "normal" use cases, which I'd argue for most people it's :
Web browsing
watching videos or listening to music
editing text documents, spreadsheets, presentations
playing video games
managing files, e.g. moving them in directories, compressing them, etc
keeping the system up to date
using a printer
there are reliable ways to use a GUI. So... even though IMHO the command line is absolutely worth learning, one can perfectly use Linux my "just" clicking their way around.
