Whether or not something is done right. I get that everyone thinks that their way is right, but nope. My way is the best and everyone should have to do it my way. No more options. Deal with it.

Sadly was taken over and no longer has the iconic voice and music. Now it’s just some crap TTS without the same level of whimsy.

Technology@lemmy.world•Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599English
251·2 days agoI’ve been running an M1 for years now. So tired of the argument that Mac is underpowered. No, it’s not a video editing/compiling/gaming powerhouse, but it more than makes up for it with an 8+ hour battery life, best-in-class display, and silent running, going on 5 years now.
It still handles everything I throw at it just fine. If I need to bust out the compute power, Mac just isn’t the right rig for it. But that doesn’t make them useless.
Y’all need to take some time away from the internet if a random meme about an open-source operating system you’ve not heard of negatively affects your state of mind.
I mean, that’s their model, yeah. That’s exactly what it is.

9·2 days agoExactly what I was thinking. If I were to be angry enough about this when it actually mattered and I could have steered the boat, I was way too young too even see that it was happening.
Not to say I don’t actively pursue and promote OSS all the time, but I feel like the impact is so much more minimal than it could have been.
An option is tritium vials. They’re pretty cheap on eBay and last something like 7 or 8 years.

301·3 days agoThey couldn’t afford enough electricity to run it in-house so now they just run a mandated botnet to make you pay for it instead. If this isn’t a page out of a George Orwell novel, it should have been.

News@lemmy.world•Parents Tried to Shield Their Children From Vaccines. Instead They Got Measles.
52·3 days agoSounds like they successfully shielded them from vaccines. Just so happens getting diseases is the direct result of that.
Liquid Death has some great low-sugar sodas. I’ve been a strong fan of their Doctor Death. Their tea is also super low in sugar.
otacon239@lemmy.worldtoShitty Ask Lemmy@lemmy.ml•What letter would you remove from the alphabet? (you're only allowed to respond D.)
9·3 days agoFor someone so upset about a letter, you seem to be using it rather frequently. But I will respect your wishes to steer away from it.

Games@sh.itjust.works•Insider Confirms Sony Ditching PC Ports: "You'll Be Seeing Fewer Single Player Games Arrive on PC."English
13·5 days agoI was really sad when CTR and Ratchet & Clank stayed on PlayStation. Those were some of the best reboots in ages and I don’t really want to have to keep my PS4 setup just to play those.
Heck, they won’t even let you into a difficult-to-cancel subscription! What are they thinking? Think of the revenue!

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I am an amateur propagandist. A hobbyist. Enthusiast, if you will.
13·6 days agoI’ve felt this way before, but I also wonder if I would have had kids in another life where the world wasn’t so fucked. I feel occasionally that I was robbed of parenthood by our current state of things.
Haha yeah. That’s where I recently learned about it myself. They’ve been on a hot streak of some really fantastic videos as of late.
Interesting. I’ve changed my hostname on a few machines throughout the past and never ran into this. Good to know if I ever run into this in the future.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•You could be entitled to compensation
151·7 days agoIt’s kind of wild just how useful asbestos actually was. Aside from the obvious issues, it was genuinely a miracle material that did all sorts of cool things. Too bad our insides hate it more than just about anything else.
You really have to consider at the halfway point if the grudge is still worth it or if forgiveness has set in.














This isn’t aimed at the person making the video because there’s about 1000 videos like it, but these videos I find are rarely a help. They walk you through enough to follow the instructions found on their official documentation and then the presenter is like, “and there you have it!”
There’s always so many things glossed over and no matter who you are 12 minutes will never be enough to introduce Docker. And yet you will find video after video of people doing 10-minute Docker tutorials.
There are just so many things ignored like how to setup reverse proxies, file locations/permissions, backups, and more that all get obfuscated by Docker and people never mention in these videos. Why do people keep making this style of introduction?
Anyone can follow the first three steps of a GitHub Readme. It’s the 10 steps after that a beginner would want to know about and that’s right where all these videos end.
