I am reminded of this old (forgive me) The Atlantic piece. It has two through-lines. One is the story of a dentist that was doing malpractice, finding issues in people’s teeth that didn’t exist so he could milk their insurance (and ruin their lives). The other is the story of why dentistry is separate from the rest of medicine.
If you have a Mac the free app Tomito in the App Store is a genuinely good pomodoro timer. There are plenty other options, even websites, but this one is my favorite so far.
Netscape, which was essentially the predecessor to Mozilla, was a well funded VC-backed startup. That’s how they did it.
E.T.
I am absolutely charmed by the characters, the story, the optimism, and the connection to the unknown.
Since it’s an old acer netbook with an Intel atom cpu it is highly unlikely it has any hardware decoding built in.
Here comes the Lecture.
Wow who could have foreseen back doors getting back doored?
I know that it’s not their fault, it’s the small size of the team
This part is directly Telegram’s fault. If they cannot keep up with their moderation queue then they need a bigger moderation team. Preferably properly remunerated. There are news reports about how Facebook’s sub-contracted moderators work for these extremely shitty companies who track them based on how many reviews a minute they do, and which causes extreme psychological damage to the workers both because of the extreme content they have to see as part of their jobs and the bad working conditions they must put up with.
I don’t even watch Anime but I still get bummed when news like this hits.
The only charitable read of this is the end-user bypassing controls on company-supplied computers.
Of course that doesn’t mean that they won’t also shove secure boot, hw lockouts, DRM, etc on regular consumer laptops as well.
seeing your post then this scumbag back to back really hits…: https://lemmy.ml/post/19412006
Try running a command like vulkaninfo --summary.
Then try running VK_DRIVER_FILES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json vulkaninfo --summary (alternatively, just try running whatever else it is you use that reports you only have lavapipe available). See if there’s a difference and if it finally reports the hardware being used.
I’m not a Mint user but according to this page https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_wilma.php
Vulkan drivers come as part of Mesa, which would already be part of Linux Mint. Unless you have an Nvidia GPU, or a GPU that’s somehow too modern for Mint 21.3.
Why should they stand down? So that Israel can keep assassinating people in Iran’s territory with impunity?
Hell yeah to those websites that still publish RSS feeds, though
She literally implied Jewish Americans protesting in DC were associates of Hamas and further implied they’re Anti-Semites. This was just two weeks ago when Netanyahu was at the Capitol giving a speech to his clapping seals (a record number of standing ovations for genocide). What the fuck are you on about?
Mind you, we are talking about Kamala’s statements. Not a random group’s that nobody’s ever heard of.
I use Firefox as I actually like it more, except for the lack of Chrome-style tab groups (in development). But it does seem like it’s mismanaged and I wonder what that means for it in upcoming years.
