What makes you think they want good press? Their current strategy of openly embracing corruption and greed has been working out pretty well for them, and the fans are still giving them hundreds or thousands of dollars.

What do passkeys allow someone to track that a password login wouldn’t?


Is that hell caused by the Cuban government or the American sanctions?
It’s probably both, but from my perspective as an outsider, the American sanctions seem to be doing a lot more damage.


The debris will be microscopic. It won’t “land” anywhere noticeable.
The fine particulate matter may not be great for the ozone layer, but it’s actually pretty negligible compared to all of the other pollution that we’re not addressing either. That doesn’t justify the pollution, but hopefully it helps contextualize it.


My mom is from Singapore and I’ve visited many times.
I don’t agree with their drug laws (or capital punishment in general), but there are dozens of warnings throughout the airport and on the passport control paperwork (in bold red letters) that you have to ignore to get to this point. They make it as clear as possible that importing drugs is a capital offense.


WW2 wasn’t just, but that doesn’t mean it’s not just to defend yourself or others.
Starting a war is never just. Participating might be just, but it doesn’t make the war just.


By not going, I was only saving $7000 a ticket when they first went on sale, but now I’m saving $11k! By Grabthar’s hammer, what a savings!


I’m honestly not even sure what talk about the Epstein files is supposed to accomplish.
Everyone knows the truth. The relevant authorities have the unredacted copies and are straight up refusing to do anything. The administration and all agencies are doing blatantly illegal things every day, and no one is willing to arrest or stop them.
The victims (of all of this administration’s crimes, not just the Epstein victims) deserve justice, but I think, at least in America, justice isn’t coming from the legal system. It might come when player 2 joins the game.


I’ve seen recipes, which are basically just cocoa butter and cocoa powder, and they seem pretty simple, though I’ve never tried them.
Most chocolate “making” just starts with chocolate callets. Melt them, temper it, put it in moulds, and add filling. I’ve done this, and it’s not that difficult. Of course, the quality here depends on the quality of the callets, so if you start with Hershey’s (not sure if they even make callets), it’ll still taste like vomit.


Look, AI is dumb, and probably not a good thing to integrate into a browser. But if it turns out to be an important thing in the future, then not integrating it right now would be worse than having it.
There’s a measurable fixed cost to adding AI features. There’s room for potentially infinite losses (i.e. entire loss of market share) if they don’t have AI features and need them. The calculus on this decision is pretty lopsided towards integrating AI, even if everyone thinks it’s likely to be unnecessary.


There is CSAM on the Internet.
gustofwind has access on their personal computer to whatever they want on the Internet.
Therefore gustofwind has CSAM on their computer. Prove me wrong.


Obviously the solution is to make a wig out of it. It’s the next iteration of portable computing.


Depends on the chip design, but modern chips will have (single digit) billions of transistors per square cm.


Yeah, that actually changes things. Not a lot, but very slightly. Like, whatever unit is smaller than a Planck length.
Edit: it’s an “annual” prize, but Trump got the first one. I would be surprised if there was another, but maybe he’ll win that one too.


Presumably the politicians accounted for this in their negotiations. They may have some high level engineers from China, but I can’t imagine they’ll be allowed to bring in a whole migrant workforce, especially with the current climate around immigration in Canada.


And then they may elect Mr Beast
I can’t wait for welfare to be replaced by “Survive 30 days in Guantanamo, win $500,000”, and “100 people in Alligator Alcatraz. Last one standing wins $1,000,000”.


From China’s perspective (and in theory, Taiwan’s perspective), invading Taiwan isn’t the same, because they both officially recognize One China, they just disagree about who’s in charge.
It would more akin to USA invading Puerto Rico, if the governor of PR asserted that they were in fact the proper leaders of the USA.


If you have a Lemmy account, you’re significantly more online than most people.


Getting some skin in the game. Can’t you read?
I think he’s asking for dick pics.
It’s been a while since I used Plex, but is it really that much less complicated than Jellyfin? When I switched, it seemed like roughly the same amount of complication, but that was a long time ago.
