Rich family exploits their workers.. suprise, suprise. I wonder just how many others they've exploited.

Nasty scummy people who should be in prison.

So Wong it's right?

We had the teams update at work, with the endless notifications to let me know that a new version was coming, would I like to update early, on the 1st the update will be forced ...

About 728 students from the four universities have been reassigned to other school ... the impact on private schools will be greater, considering the lack of students and the preference for public schools.

It's 4 rather small private universities. Doesn't seem like any great loss to me.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back ( www.windowscentral.com )

It's a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

‘It was like the wild west’: meet the First Nations guardians protecting Canada’s pristine shores ( www.theguardian.com )

It's Delaney Mack’s first time pulling crab traps and she is unsure what to do. Mack, the newest member of the Nuxalk Guardian Watchmen, has had months of training for the multifaceted job, which might on any given day include rescuing a kayaker, taking ocean samples or monitoring a logging operation. But winching crabs up...

I don't know why he's talking about the wild west when he's clearly holding some sort of face hugging alien.

The first view of the rocket fired from the Strela-10 is really good.

The French are on our side.

And TBF, I don't think they've invaded anyone for quite a while nor had colossal losses.

There needs to be a way to only get one push notification for every new message in a group chat

I dont know about others, but sometimes I am not able to check my phone, or be fully present in a conversation that I'm part of. Maybe I'm concentrating on work, or driving, and not able to look. It gets distracting when my phone is constantly buzzing and chiming for 5 minutes straight. Muting the chat can help, but if you...

I think that's a good idea, my solution is to mute group chats and check them when I'm free, but it's not ideal for the reasons you've mentioned.

In whatsapp there's only the option to mute the chat.

In discord there's granular level of control that allows me to mute everything but direct notifications (@d00ery).

But if you implemented such a feature, how would you limit it?

i.e. one notification for the first message and then mute all replies for 5 mins? What happens when that one person who always replies an hour later messages?

Could we use AI to check if the conversation is still related to the original message?

From a dev perspective there's all sorts of solutions but I wonder how would one find the sweet spot.

So running games in Linux using my 3080 is going to work better now?

d00ery ,

😁 ok thanks. I get the speeding the cycle up bit!
Makes sense that it'll be easier to fix bugs if the code is open.

In the Discworld series there are some parodied Australian wizards in The Last Continent book.
