Yeah but compared to British plugs that have a bajillion safety features.

I mean we do, but blaming them doesn’t make Linux more viable for high end GPU applications.
American plugs terrify me.
And not just the instance admins would be at risk as well. Any time you view an image your device is making a local copy of it. Meaning every person who viewed the image even accidentally is at risk as well.
… I can think of one possibility - an instance known that lemmy.world recently defederated from.
I’m currently doing it mainly because I haven’t worked out what I want to subscribe to yet.
Also let’s not forget the Hexbear “Russia is good actually” posts.
Let’s be honest this is how it actually usually plays out:
Be a huge company
Make your employees sign an NDA
Make your code closed source
Use GPL code and not give a shit because you’re a huge company with a legal team bigger than your Dev team
Also we have to question whether it can be considered waste if it’s actually necessary.
coffee cups
You want to know the ridiculous thing about that - the coffee cup thing is a complete con. They can’t be recycled as paper/cardboard because they have a polymer coating to allow them to maintain their structure.
It’s basically “he’s retiring but keeps getting paid by Nintendo”.
Then you find out nobody needs you and you get depressed.
Yeah I was going to say the reason there hasn’t been significant progress on a HIV virus isn’t because it isn’t possible but because for the longest time the bodies that could provide funding for the research thought HIV killing ‘the gays’ was a desirable outcome…
So when I started in the current startup I am in, we did the anarchy approach of just give a feature to work on and a tool to track tickets for 3 years. Eventually as team leader we migrated to scrum development. And as the team has expanded I’ve actually gotten stricter about it.
The rituals of scrum seem pointless when you start out and with a team of less than 4 people but at 4+ people it’s important just to keep track of what on earth is happening in the team. Like end of sprint allows us to work out if things are vaguely on track. If they are not we can identify where the weaknesses are. Someone took on a task estimated at 8 story points and it took 2 weeks to do, need to find out what the issue is (usually because either because there is a knowledge gap in that aspect of the system or because the task just simply hasn’t been defined clearly enough and needs the product owner to give more details).
I never thought I’d be that guy who defends the scrum process but 5 years of being a team lead changes you.
Though because this system was one that evolved naturally as we grew and realised what we were doing as a company wasn’t working we largely avoided the corporate bullshittery version of scrum. We don’t have a scrum master, I’m the guy who is like “oi I need you in this meeting” to the product owners.
Microsoft had to provide a separate edition that gave the user a browser choice for 10 years because the EU successfully called anti-trust on Windows doing IE/Edge as default.
Not to mention Microsoft’s profits aren’t from the OS but what they get from the user once they have the OS. Once they have the Windows user they then have a market to sell other Microsoft products, not to mention all the stuff on the Windows store.
They don’t need profits from the OS as the OS pays for itself in the long run.
Yeah these days literally every website uses JavaScript in some format as modern reactive design is easier to do if you can execute client side code. Blocking JavaScript is a sledgehammer solution to the problem.
I completely forgot I had added that extension (back when Google actually looked ugly on Firefox on Android without it) just disabled and oh my god not only does it not freeze it actually feels usable again (I hate the weird AI suggested tabs at the top in the chromium UI).
Nah Essex is our Florida.
