I wager the word “radio” also helps. Early 1900s would have had plenty of radio broadcasts being “the thing” going on, so that word probably helps prime the interpretation, even if not used in quite the same way.

eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunchEnglish93·26 days agoInstead of explaining what you mean, you’re just going to casually suggest they read a roughly 500 page book and hope that clears it up for them?
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The US Secretary of Education referred to AI as ‘A1,’ like the steak sauceEnglish19·28 days agoBro how out of touch with your colleagues do you have to be to not know it’s AI. Have you literally never heard someone around you talk about it? No one on TV? You’ve never said it aloud to someone who corrected you?
It’s mostly my penchant for longer passwords in general. I did not plan to swap up strategies for my personal PC login account. Seeing microsoft demand a shorter password than I use almost everywhere else was… not promising.
Basically. It’s essentially a full-on sentence and last time I looked, Microsoft allowed about half the character length.
I use that command partially because Microsoft accounts don’t allow passwords as long as the password I like to use for my PC
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•FCC to get Republican majority and plans to “delete” as many rules as possibleEnglish11·2 months agoIt already has. I have gotten more spam calls in 2025 than I’ve gotten in the 5 or 10-ish years prior to that.
Terrible idea. Every time I look at toggling it on just to test, it explicitly lists features that I use as ones which will be disabled by the switch.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Block ADS On The Internet For Your Entire FamilyEnglish21·2 months agoHonestly I don’t hate it if the ads are tailored enough. I don’t ever directly click ads, but I have seen products before that wormed into my mind and had me looking for similar/the same later. I don’t hate advertisements for legit products that actually fit my interest. I only hate ads because of how many of them are in my face and trying to convince me I need something that I don’t.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Archivists Recreate Pre-Trump CDC Website, Are Hosting It in EuropeEnglish8·2 months agoThey’re either beating it back or delaying it. I hope it’s the former, but I fear it’s the latter.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Discord introduces a feature that lets you quietly ignore users without them knowingEnglish4·3 months agoI don’t even mind the 1 ignored message. At least it gives me slight context that people are replying to something. I hate that it gives me the little “new messages” indicator on chats when it’s only users I have ignored.
eronth@lemmy.worldto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•The PlayStation Network outage proves PC gamers were right to resist its mandatory sign-in requirementEnglish7·3 months agoHelldivers 2? They no longer require a PSN account. Anyone without such an account can still play with the network is down, because the protests against a required account were large enough.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Wikipedia Prepares for 'Increase in Threats' to US Editors From Musk and His AlliesEnglish9·3 months agoThere’s a reason it sounds like that.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google's AI made up a fake cheese fact that wound up in an ad for Google's AI, perfectly highlighting why relying on AI is a bad ideaEnglish20·3 months agoI find LLMs very useful for setting up tech stuff. “How do I xyz in docker?” It does a great job of boiling together several disjointed How Tos that don’t quite get me there into one actually usable one. I use it when googling and following articles isn’t getting me anywhere, and it’s often saved so much time.
eronth@lemmy.worldto Programming@programming.dev•Coders or lemmy, what editors do you use? Is it worth learning a new one?52·3 months agoVS Code with your favorite plugins is pretty fantastic for any editing in my experience. I’ve tried others and they do seem to work well, but not well enough to warrant switching, and they often come with quirks that are just annoying enough to make me want to switch back.
I suggest trying others to know what’s out there, even if you ultimately end up back on VS Code.

eronth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube shorts disproportionately promotes alt-right content according to this experimentEnglish20·3 months agoInsanely, that seems to be the play. Not logic or reason, but brainrot and low blows. Which is a bit at odds with the actual desire.
Not just keylogger. It’s a screenlogger too.
