Microsoft was shit in the 90s and never stopped being shit.

But not before passning all that impact energy goodness to the passengers due to the lack of crumple zones.

I hope he suddenly goes all sovereign citizen and handles his own defense.

My impression of flatpak is that it was built by someone who doesn't like or use a terminal.

ISO 8601 is always the correct way to format dates.

Yes please!

I compartmentalised a lot using several sock puppets

Damn it, didnt even get a notice about this comment. It uses GANs, similar but not the same as the LLMs used by chatgpt trained on a large set of photos (I think it was trained on the ffhq set) to generate new faces. See youtube for cool videos that transition between faces.

Cringe seem to have become popular to describe all kinds of annoying, uncomfortable, or awkward things lately. Maybe use that instead since the other two uses of gay were pretty well established when people started using it as the third definition.

I would definitely not trust Opera due to its Chinese owners.

All the faces on This person does not exist are more believable than any picture of the Zucbot.

This one is easy. I remember the 90s when microsoft pretended to play nice with everyone while they simultaneously did their damndest to destroy any competitor by their embrace and extend tactic. I also remember when AOL opened up their walled garden and the amount of garbage that flooded every usenet group. Im aware that the redditpocalypse probably had the same effect on lemmy but I still support defederation.

I don't think it's dying. I hope it's a paradigm shift like when it changed from wild west lawless chaos to three or four huge companies running all of it. Maybe we end up with everything replaced by different distributed services. It's going to incredibly annoying when half the search results are dead links or links to reddit but that annoyance can drive innovation.
