This is a case where “died by suicide” seems genuinely more effective at describing what happened than “killed herself”. She didn’t inflict on herself the conditions that led to suicide. Other people did that, and they are ultimately responsible for her death, even if it was technically by her own hand.

Those contemptable fucking bastard Nazi shitheads.

Admittedly very tough question. Here are some of the ideas I just came up with:

Make it easier to hold people or organizations liable for mistakes made because of haphazard reliance on LLMs.

Reparations for everyone ever sued for piracy, and completely do away with intellectual privacy protections for corporations, but independent artists get to keep them.

Public service announcements campaign aimed at making the general public less trustful of LLMs.

Strengthen consumer protection such that baseless claims of AI capabilities in advertising or product labeling are legally dangerous to make.

Fine companies for every verifiably inaccurate result given to a customer or end user by an LLM

Bill Gates deserves the guillotine exactly as much as the rest of them.

cis gay dude here.

Poorly.

we have wildly different definitions for “mildly”!

he uses hyprland? amusing that fascist youtuber uses fascist-developed compositor

Sounds like ThinkPads

I got like $50 from an Apple settlement a month or two ago

One of the drivers mentioned in this article has a youtube video showing his odometer going from 124,999 to 125,001, completely skipping 125,000. One of the comments asks him to reach out to the law firm handling the class action lawsuit, but the owner replies with:

Happy to help if you’re interested in paying a consultation fee for my time-- but otherwise these actions only enrich the law firms and I’m not volunteering to do that.

This mindset is so frustrating. Class action lawsuits are legit, they hold companies accountable and they pay out cash to people. To say that they only enrich law firms is not just wrong, but I think actually harmful to repeat like he has, especially in the great age of enshittification where everything tries to force binding arbitration agreements into every contract and agreement.

KDE stuff isn’t used on commercially-available products that need tech support

I’m sure there are organizations using Plasma desktop with IT departments supporting it, but I definitely take your point that Apple has orders of magnitude more spending on UI/UX and software development

I’m largely curious about Finder these days since I used macOS almost exclusively from the G4 days right up until about the time they switched to ARM, so it’s been a few years. I’m curious if Apple has made any significant improvements to Finder in the past, say, four years?

Dolphin seems great to me! What do you think Finder does better than Dolphin?

Appreciate isn’t the claim tho

Dr. San lookin ass

Thank you!

Male/masc feet pics. There is a dearth. And there is a silly default assumption that “feet pics” must always be female/femme and that really bothers me. Tho partly my fault for not contributing anything lately myself…

For anyone interested:

a handful of atoms would be a lot of atoms!

the us government, if it’s ever run by non-fascists, could easily afford to hire developers to not only properly support it but actively maintain and improve it.

especially with how many software engineers are being constantly laid off from big tech monsters.

I don’t give a tenth of a rat’s shit. People gotta have a place to live, food to eat, and healthcare, and all of those require employment. Unless you can show me another employer in her field who isn’t committing or aiding atrocities, which I’m confident you cannot.

Do you know the origins of that meme? Are you sure you’re okay with repeating it yourself, even if it’s just meant as a joke?

Not bad for a laptop with unreliable USB support. But that’s ok, USB is pretty niche, nobody really uses that…

(speaking from personal experience with a fw16, multiple USB A and C expansion modules, after a mainboard replacement and firmware update and testing under several different Linux distros. but also, framework’s own community forums show plenty of reports of USB problems, and even more on reddit)
