It's a big year in robotics, so, the former.

foggy ,

They're gonna realize the two jobs it can actually replace is HR and the C suite.

foggy ,

Yeah, the kinda shit clickfarms would post to Facebook to get the boomers talking. This is like modern chainmail. Send this to 5 people or you'll be cursed!

foggy ,

For emergency purposes, no.

Just about, though.

foggy ,

The people of Russia aren't guilty of anything.

In principle, the same is true of Israelites.

We don't judge a people by their nation state. That's how atrocities get normalized.

foggy ,

...and Germans voted for Hitler.

Americans did and will again vote for trump. That doesn't mean all Americans want what he wants.

Y'all are fucking ridiculous. It's alarming.

foggy ,

To reiterate: We don't judge a people by their nation state. That's how atrocities get normalized.

To reiterate: We don't judge a people by their nation state. That's how atrocities get normalized.

foggy ,

No I'm not. You're putting so, so many inaccurate words in my mouth. That's why I simply repeat myself so you can continue to play crazy person.

We don't judge the Russian people for Putin's actions.

We don't judge Germans for Hitler's actions.

People are people. Countries are countries.

To reiterate: We don't judge a people by their nation state. That's how atrocities get normalized.

foggy ,

Oh okay let's just nuke em all then good plan

foggy ,

Oh, 100% of them did?

foggy ,

Voted for?

Your words not mine.

foggy ,

So then you are agreeing with my heavily downvoted opinion.

We don't judge a people by their nation state. That's how atrocities get normalized.

foggy ,

Why would you think I am a Zionist? jfc. You people are braindead.

You don't judge people based on where they're fucking born.

Do you know what "nation state" means? Apparently not.

foggy ,

Yo don't judge people based on where they're born, jfc.

foggy ,

I downvoted you because it's an asinine question.

foggy ,

Also Facebook but 🤫

foggy ,

Meta's not hacking into our military because they have the keys.

foggy ,

This would be a clear violation of ones first amendment right. Say it's your religion.

foggy ,

Not...really? Not in this context, anyways.

You cannot compel a person to remove their hijab, anywhere in the US, for example.

foggy , (edited )

Yes cops are bad. We all know. You don't fight cops at your arrest for justice. You fight in the court.

You're missing the point entirely.

Jfc room temp IQs in this thread.

foggy ,

As I said, you've missed the point entirely.

foggy ,

I've said all I care to say. You're being willfully ignorant. I don't care to speak with you any further.

foggy ,

That isn't what qualified immunity is or does.

foggy ,

Ok. Bye.

foggy ,

🙄 no u

foggy ,

Nitpick: it should be fuzzed with random 0s and 1s.

foggy ,

Lemmy is significantly smaller. Because of this:

+Trolls are easier to spot

+Interactions tend to be friendlier and more wholesome/respectful

+Far more originality shining through

-less engaged communities

-fewer niche communities

-no rich history to comb through

foggy ,

Lol yeah that's true of reddit too

foggy ,

Did this black-ass president just order fucking DIJON MUSTARD?!?

Like... They attacked for everything.

foggy ,

I need a 1yr salary sign-on bonus before I clock in. I also need full pay for 120 months after any form of departure from the company.

You know, since I can't trust the stability of the relationship.

foggy ,

Oh naturally.

I was just ironing out what I wouldn't be doing any work for.

I'd get that shit notarized and then quit. Take a 10 year vacation to academia or something. Get published. 🤷‍♂️

Squarespace to Go Private in $6.9B All-Cash Transaction with Permira ( investors.squarespace.com )

Stockholders will receive $44.00 per share in cash, which represents a premium of 29% over the 90-day volume weighted average trading price of $34.09 Squarespace, Inc. (NYSE: SQSP ), the design-driven platform helping entrepreneurs build brands and businesses online, today announced that it has entered into a definitive...

Sometimes appeasing shareholders isn't good for business.

This would mean it is more likely that employees will see greater benefits. Certainly doesn't guarantee that, but without shareholders to appease, the workers have more leverage.

foggy ,

Yeah the 1 2 punch reeks of sketchy business.

foggy ,

Shareholders were bought out for $44.00 per share.

You're thinking about "investors" which are not the same as "shareholders".

There are no more shareholders. There are no more shades to hold.

foggy ,

I'd rock out to a year or three of like 0.1-2.9% deflation.

But that's a much more slippery slope. Any more than that and black Friday will look like the current housing market.

foggy ,

It's even worse when the citizens do this.

That's what I meant by "black Friday will look like the current housing market."

I can see how that wasn't a totally clear point though

foggy ,

Do people still use stack overflow? I feel like their days are numbered.

foggy ,

I mean, good documentation + LLM = Stack overflow is 100% obsolete

Why else would they speed run enshitification?

They chose well, dude is incredibly unlikable.

Have fun in jail, you once-rich failure.

What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)?

I am currently using an old laptop (circa 2015) with a 250GB SSD in it, and 4GB of RAM. It runs Fedora 39 Server, and only hosts a Jellyfin instance through Docker right now (though I want to use Nextcloud later too). There is only 15GB of storage left on it, and the CPU is constantly overloaded (due to forced transcoding). I...

foggy ,

If price is the deciding factor then just build one.

Get an old i7 for dirt cheap, cram the thing with ram and storage to suit your budget.

Run something lightweight like Ubuntu Server.

foggy , (edited )

It totally doesn't

I'm running a 14th gen i9 with a 4080. It's a power hungry boy. 1500w power supply. Generally using about 600-800w.

Running this 24/7 costs me <$10/month in electricity.

The old compaq presario with a Pentium II that probably pulled down 100w running Ubuntu server as described here made no statistically significant change in my electric bill. That is to say, it's about as much change as being good or bad at turning off your lights when you're not using them. It's negligible.

foggy ,

Idk what I'm paying per kwh, I am just going off my monthly bills.

There are other power fluctuates, I'm sure. I pay it no mind I just look at the bill. 🤷‍♂️

So far no bill has arrived that made me change behavior.

Edit: I've also never measured what my machine actually pulls down continuously/when idle. I just know that it's components demand that range, and that I need the headroom in my power supply for spikes.

foggy ,

No "old i7" as I suggested, is going to meaningfully increase the temp of your room if it has any cooling solution in place.

Your stubbornness around a perfectly practical solution is absurd. I won't bother convincing you further -- it's the obvious cost effective solution.

foggy ,

It is still by far most cost effective.

Your argument amounts to nothing.

Did the premise of an entity approaching you only when it's not being viewed originate with Doctor Who's Weeping Angels?

The Weeping Angels apparently originated with Steven Moffat seeing a statue of a weeping angel in a structure in a cemetery and returning later to find out it was gone. At least according to this RadioTimes article. They first appeared in 2007 in the episode Blink....

Or the game red light green light...

Which has roots in ancient China and was originally known as “Dong macha,” meaning “Freeze move” in Chinese. It was believed to have been played as early as the Tang Dynasty.

According to facts.com so, you know. Gotta be facts.
