Most zoomers are adults. 96 to 2010 means only the youngest zoomers are minors. In 3 years, every zoomer will be a legal adult.

 Programmer Humor@programming.dev•All Modern Digital Infrastucture.
2·3 months agoIt is an edited xkcd. Here’s what the license has to say about that

I wouldn’t expect somebody reposting a meme to follow the licensing requirements, but it is technically in violation.
People have called NPCs in video games “AI” for like, decades.
The gameplay seems to borrow heavily from Schedule I, but Schedule I’s graphics are somewhat cohesive. The graphics for Tollbooth Simulator are unharmonious, and together with the - from an outside perspective - unoriginal gameplay, and possibly AI generated title banner, makes it seem like an asset flip.
But that’s just my outside opinion having not played the game.

 Technology@lemmy.zip•DuckDuckGo Is Hoping to Win Over AI-Hating SearchersEnglish
3·3 months agoIt used to be when you searched for something, it was information first, products second. If you searched bicycle, it would give you the Wikipedia page for bicycle, and then pages related to bicycles, some of which would be retailers. Now it’s the other way around, if the informational pages even show up at all.
Forget all the AI bullshit, this is my biggest gripe with search engines today. This is why people use ChatGPT - for all its faults - to search shit that Google used to answer. ChatGPT will confidently lie to you, but it least it gives you an answer instead of trying to sell something to you.

 Linux@lemmy.ml•I'm committing to Linux, but it's so unstable. Any suggestions?

 Technology@lemmy.ml•Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production
1·7 months ago“If you swallowed or inhaled this battery you’d be exposed to significant amounts of radiation.” It’s beta radiation, which can be stopped by a later of tin foil, I think. So yeah if you ate the source itself that would be bad, but if you eat the battery with the casing, probably much less bad?

 Technology@lemmy.ml•Bluesky To Sell Your Content To AI Data Miners
8·8 months agoHeadline sounds like FOSS bro cope. They’re talking about letting users choose to have a robots.txt denying AI dataset scrapers lol.
Not like other sites do a good job of preventing it anyway. robots.txt is not worth the metaphorical paper it’s written on.

 Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The state should be purely passed through function inputs and outputs
10·8 months agoThey define anarchy differently from the common definition. Anarchists believe in creating community organizations to serve the needs of society, but they refrain from calling it a state because they believe a state requires a monopoly on the acceptable use of violence.
They don’t think that we should just dissolve society and let everyone fend for themselves to eliminate class, unless they’re an edgy teenager.

 Linux@lemmy.ml•Can we please, PLEASE for gods sake just all agree that arch is not and will never be a good beginner distro no matter how many times you fork it?
21·9 months agoTo half the users in this thread, normal people use computers as a means to an end.
“If you’re not prepared to get your hands dirty this OS is not for you” you’ve already lost me, this is unhinged behaviour. You have one life and you choose to spend it fixing your computer so it will do the same things except slightly differently.
But I know this is an unpopular opinion for Linux users.

 Technology@lemmy.ml•China is quietly pushing ahead with massive 50,000Mbps broadband rollout to leapfrog rest of the world on internet speeds
1·9 months agoI have 3000 mbps. I literally don’t have a way to verify that they’re delivering those speeds, since I’m limited by the speed of my computers’ motherboard Ethernet ports.

“Sounds like it is working pretty well to me” when I spend multiple days trying to get Linux working for one purpose (to draw) and am unsuccessful.
This is why “current year is the year of the Linux desktop” is hilarious to anyone who doesn’t use Linux.
