I’m not so paranoid, but at the same time, will it actually be useful? This sounds like a way to generate a mountain of data with minimal benefit. I don’t really trust AI at the moment to be able to help me with some vague recollection of work that was done 3 weeks ago, for example (I go through a lot of cases each month).

Oh yea, I tried that too, nope, just simply can’t compare. That’s why Adobe still gets my money as much as I don’t want to give it to them. Luckily the Photography plan hasn’t increased in price… yet.

I’ll still be using Windows (no time for Linux), but really, why does the user have to do this for a pleasant experience? MS shouldn’t be hostile towards their users.

Yea, that was my take as well. Try RawTherapee, they said. Nope, inferior, there were some photos where I could spot them in full-screen view, not even at 100%.

Don’t forget, control the sale of data too. Audits etc to make sure they comply with privacy safeguards, and so on.

This is just pandering as well as, I suspect, to give a corporate donor a profit-making business.

That’s just a you thing, the two I mentioned are earbuds.

I have earphones that are 15-20 years old (UE Triple-fi 10s and Yuin PK2s, the first wave of Chi-fi products), 2-3 year (or even 5) lifespan for audio products is insane.

Well, I saw this coming and got a new 2TB SSD before 11.11 even. Though now thinking if I should have gotten 4TB instead. xD

Also, this kinda is like collusion, no?

Kinda, but nowadays it’s all filtered in so even in a mass market supermarket you can get some decent ingredients. Like anything else not common to the local palate, you have to pay. Kale is ridiculously expensive, for example.

If you’re worried about authenticity, probably compare notes with native cooks, but more importantly, check to see if the ingredients are correct. Very easy to get bastardised ingredients; as an example, living in an Asian country, I used to have a hell of a time getting the right herbs and vegetables for doing certain Western dishes with, and very common to get some pre-packaged “mix” of herbs instead.

Great, so it’ll take AI to set 16GB as minimum.

I still shudder that there are machines still being sold with 8GB RAM, that’s just barely enough.

This is why I don’t like the Fediverse as much. Can you believe that loon got so many upvotes? Describes the average mentality around these parts, what a turn off.

I’m sure there’ll only be people who read the headlines, so here’s what’s going on:

Overall shipments decreased by 40 million, but there were two companies who made gains within the top 5: Apple, who shipped 8 million units more, and Transsion, who shipped 22 million units more. Samsung dropped 40 million units, similar to the overall shipments. Looks like Transsion made the most of it during this dip, taking away marketshare from other Android phone makers.

Fairphone also deliberately chose an industrial variant of the Snapdragon 778G just so they could get by the issue mentioned by nyan.

Meanwhile all the scammers and spammrs still get to post their ads.

I didn’t realise it, I just pasted the link and let Kbin figure out the data. I guess it read from an internal working title instead of the actual title (which isn’t much better, it’s “The Perfect Webpage”)

I do feel like this is why I don’t really hang around the fediverse that much; it’s like the opposite end of the spectrum of right-wingers who go nuts when “communism” or “socialism” is mentioned, just that it’s any mention of “capitalism”. Kneejerk reactions either way.

Sounds great; yea, I’m getting sick of the shitty SEOed the hella out results I’m getting from Google search nowadays. If I’m searching for anything that’s not pure facts (which likely leads me to a wiki page anyway), it’s just going to be a shitshow of bland pages as described in the linked article.

Yes, I really do love the animations, really shows the transformation so well.

Yes, that’s why before Reddit went to shit we all added “reddit” to the search terms. I do miss the old web a lot.
