There is an argument that tankies aren’t exactly ownership by the people.
Like you don’t look at the USSR and think "oh yeah the people really had ownership over their means of production*.
Ownership by the people implies the people have a say.
Actually thinking about it, my one anecdote is that my interviewer for a job application was Swiss. Didn’t offer any pleasantries to make me feel less nervous just dove straight into the technical task straight away. I didn’t get the job
Would have been nice to have amended the headline to reflect the actual story.
Oh in our company the CTO still has cloud resistance… But at the same time also feels comfortable sharing sensitive documents over Skype, Outlook and Teams…
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.
I suspect it’s a case of they thought they were getting a good deal out of this when they signed the contract but didn’t realise how much Taylor was going to take the piss until it was too late. Likely when the contract expires it probably won’t be renewed.
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.
And the command prompt uses the directory terminology anyway with the dir command.
I’d hate to live in a world where just because something isn’t immediately useful it shouldn’t be researched.
Being able to demonstrate the ability to suppress a sonic boom would be huge.
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.
The problem is it’s not that simple from a climate perspective. Solar and wind are great but are incredibly variable which is not good when you need a guaranteed baseline electricity production. There is no situation under which a large nation could reliably just use wind/solar to power the country. Currently nuclear is the only renewable, clean energy source that can produce a stable output.
The main issue comes when the game is using proprietary stuff. Like I found getting Kingdom Hearts to run at all was a pain in the arse because of it using a proprietary codec for it’s cutscenes.
I also found Hand of Fate 2 had some weird rendering issues with certain graphics settings.
And if you want to do Ray tracing or HDR you’re currently out of luck.
Yeah my only issue with WebOS is that it feels like it should have Chromecast built in but doesn’t.
