Doesn't the use of VoIP often make these hard to trace, as well?

Well that's largely because so few companies are doing agile correctly. Its usually some form of agilefall.

Personally I live in Colorado and most people who drive trucks that size here use them for offroading. Given the gas mileage they're very impractical for day to day.

Devil's advocate here. Does not pretty much any post on the subject of politics that is not simply reporting constitute an attempt to manipulate public opinion? Are they specifically referencing nation states trying to influence public opinion?

I'm mostly just wondering how they're distinguishing between astroturfing and legit posts.

Microsoft Account to local account conversion guide erased from official Windows 11 guide — instructions redacted earlier this week ( www.tomshardware.com )

Microsoft has been pushing hard for its users to sign into Windows with a Microsoft Account. The newest Windows 11 installer removed the easy bypass to the requirement that you make an account or login with your existing account. If you didn't install Windows 11 without a Microsoft Account and now want to stop sending the...

This is true of a lot of large companies in general. The fact that they make money in spite of this shows how much the markets favor established players.

When I was a youth they called that "coco puffs"

Always great when a woodpecker starts drumming the Morse code for "I'm horny" on your window at 5am.

Love phantom brave so great to see a sequel. But ugh I hate the 3d engine.

Suddenly feel like watching the royal tenenbaums again

They actually seem quite a bit different. The one for Cara isn't perfectly round and seems to suggest a person in the middle.

Its Instagram mashed up with artstation

Oh good, I was thinking of that exact thing, but I couldn't remember the name of the movie. I remember it being surprisingly funny.

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information ( futurism.com )

You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)...

TBH this is surprisingly honest.

johannesvanderwhales ,

I think it's more likely that, because the public perceives Google as being a bit behind Microsoft on AI, it's to their advantage to push a "AI is not ready yet" narrative.

While most people on Lemmy are going to know what this means, the person who wrote this error message was definitely trying to be cute with that phrasing.

Huh, it's funny, my company uses Webex and I'd probably prefer Teams.

It's not for no reason, it's to lower bandwidth costs. It may not be a reason that benefits you but there is definitely a reason.

How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals

I constantly see angry mobs of people decrying "woke", "critical race theory", ""grooming"", and whatever other nonsense they made up this week. They march around with guns, constantly appending lib as a prefix to any word they can use to denigrate. They actively plot violence and spew hatred in the open....

Liberals like to live in reality, leftists like to live in "well both parties are the same so it's okay if Trump gets elected" land.

I dunno if it's the hardware requirements. The ads are the thing I don't want. Not sure I see the point of moving the start menu either.

I just turned off tpm and my laptop has mostly stopped nagging me about upgrading. I did get a notice that win10 support is ending soon.

johannesvanderwhales ,

Note that this isn't going anywhere; the senate won't take it up.

johannesvanderwhales ,

Looks like a red bellied woodpecker and a screech owl.

And for people who think they should've been called red-headed woodpeckers, the name was taken.
