People losing jobs to automation should be a good thing. It should be a sign of progress and healthy advancement towards better living conditions and longer happier lives. It should be a good thing.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you try to protect your onsite backup from fire?
5·6 months agoSure, my place has the required residential sprinklers and a couple up to date fire extinguishers around.
Besides, offsite backup is 1:1 on identical hardware with off-grid power resilience. Worst case scenario I have to order new hardware and physically move the old machine for a local duplication again.
All of it is insured of course with yearly audits.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Gaming on Linux hasn't been great so far... | JayzTwoCents [27:59]
8·6 months agoWait, I have a 7800x3D and 7900 XTX and feel like I’m getting exactly the performance I’d expect for 1440p gaming. What do I need to look into to see if I’m leaving performance on the table? I’m using Arch so latest rolling kernel drivers seem to be working fine based on my monitoring of card stats and “feel” when playing modern games. Since performance has been fine out of the box, I never suspected I could be missing something so it would be nice to verify one way or another.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could I just create my own drive format?
14·6 months agoThe harder drive! https://youtube.com/watch?v=JcJSW7Rprio
CLI, nvimdiff 90% of the time. If I’m on a windows workstation, I might end up using git extensions GUI as it helps me visualize what’s happening a little better sometimes.

Been waiting for tree structure! Thank you for the hard work on this, love this project.
Just use git. It’s what all these front ends use at their core. It’s all just git which doesn’t need any hosting at all. If all you want is tracking changes you don’t even need to set up a remote to push / pull from. Just install git on your local development machine, make a folder for you project, and run ‘git init’. Now you have a local repo which can track and commit changes and you have all of the incredibly powerful tools available that git provides with ample documentation. Wanna back it up? Just backup the folder with any standard backup application like any other folder.

Opensource@programming.dev•Blender developers begin work on full-fledged mobile version - Ars Technica
7·7 months agoI would LOVE to use blender on my tablet! If they can deliver the performance with a “better than 2.79” interface for touch, I’ll be a happy camper.

News@lemmy.world•Moscow starts direct flights to North Korea amid decline in options for Russian tourists
15·7 months agoGranted the scale is very different but the US sent thousands upon thousands of active duty assignments to the Middle East via commercial airlines. It was simply the most efficient way to transport troops. The dedicated transports were for critical personnel and equipment mostly. I knew several people personally who did multiple rotations over the years, every flight was commercial.

For a foundation who’s entire ethos is stability, it makes sense and is a welcome change.

44·7 months agoYou’re off ten fold. They have thousands. Around 5000 with a planned 12k after gen 3 has been fully deployed. It’s definitely a “let the intern push to prod” type of scenario by numbers alone.

11·7 months agoAll IoT devices should be on their own LAN segment already with no WAN access. It’s the first rule of having IoT devices. If you need remote access, VPN securely. There is no other way to do it safely.
It’s a feature and it’s also ok to choose to use it.





Ugh. This is what sucks about this— it’s not hard to imagine a (closer) future where relatives fall for the marketing and do genetic testing, while one day you have a medical emergency or situation happen and insurers now have your family genome where they can deny coverage for predisposition of this thing you now have to deal with which also ruins you economically, more than it would have in the past.
