why would you take anything you see on the internet seriously?
Deleted comment was praising GitHub Copilot.
It’s literally just a glorified autocorrect and suggestion feature.
It also suggests complete stochastic garbage most of the time. When I type “list” sometimes it will try to infer that I am writing a cookbook and try to autofill to “of ingredients” or even further.
I remember it being one of my favored chosen out of the plethora of random third party devices I had laying around. This was a step above Mad Catz for sure, but definitely still below the original controllers.
This is a Nyko Air Flow controller. I had one for the original Xbox. It was supposed to keep you from sweating during long sessions of gameplay, because it was ventilated and had a fan on the back. To be honest, I don’t remember it being excellent at keeping you cool. I think the fan was pretty lousy, but it was a great gimmick none the less.
I had a lot of weird controllers back then. Some good, some bad. Most of them Mad Catz.
The same amount of fools who created the largest civilian surveillance network with Ring doorbells.
TSMC equipment only has the materials to function for about two weeks before needing a shipment of replacement parts for the fabs when they wear out.
Again, there are easier ways to do this.
Biometric authentication can be required for some companies. You’d have to opt in to use the system or at least agree to the terms set forth by the employer. This kind of stuff doesn’t just get collected just because; it’s pretty sensitive data.
What you’re talking about is a cyberpunk nightmare; some corporate-assisted mass surveillance designed for like, union busting.
If you’re making vocal and facial profiles of employees you must have some reason to do so, and it can’t just be to burn cash. Like I said before, this stuff costs money, and it’s kind of pointless unless you’re using it in a way that makes money, selling the data somehow.
There are easier ways to spy on your employees. This is not cost-effective.
I use Zoom for work now and each call can be several gigabytes large, depending on resolution of shared materials and a few other factors. If you want to save that kind of stuff long term, you have to pay to keep it somewhere. If you multiply several gigabytes over a few dozen calls a day, you’re going to end up with terabytes of garbage you need to store. Zoom also informs you of when a recording is starting and active, offering for you to leave the call or otherwise implicitly agree to being recorded. You have to pay for all these things because there’s a significant amount of processing power involved. It’s not like it’s free to run facial recognition and speech recognition.
When I did contract work for Apple support, the spying was way more efficient than just listening to my calls. My supervisor could literally always see my monitor through the chat program we had installed. There’s all kinds of remote software for things like this. If an admin wants to see you misuse your equipment, they have easier ways of finding out than sifting through calls to find wrongthink.
There’s a transaction limit on tap payments. Sometimes you need to chip or swipe when it’s over $250 or something.
Don’t forget about the new Snapdragon X series. I heard they were pretty good, on par and better than M3s.
You can enable REBAR on older machines with a UEFI hack.
It’s been part of the PCI spec for ages but Nvidia and AMD only started using it recently.
It’s human nature!
Lemmy has a serious sourcing issue, just across the board.
Miss Johnson-Johnson, your brats are here.

I don’t get it. I know the instance but what is the deal with the obsession around a shark toy from Ikea?
SA used to be great. That move actually made the forums a pretty good place for a while because it kept out a few demographics including bots and kids.
Something Awful, YTMND and Newgrounds were basically the comedic engines of the internet back then.
Good 'ol pre-YouTube internet.
I followed a bunch of artists and content creators and I got annoyed when the entire feed became just interspersed with Musk’s ramblings and bullshit. I never followed him and I didn’t want promoted content.
You also don’t have to worry about it fucking disappearing on you unless you have a drive failure.
They’re both planning on the same thing, it sounds like.
It doesn’t sound like Disney is licensing their content to Netflix, they’re both just essentially replicating cable TV based on their catalogues with ads interspersed.
Ferengi Basics Genesis Device. Half price compared to the original!
