Quite rage-baity title, no?

What he actually said:

“I do say this with love,” Cage said at the convention. “When I see these 50-plus and otherwise intelligent and remarkably gifted thespians putting on these ridiculous outfits and getting ready for the fight — let’s face it, it’s all cutting to the fight — it’s hard for me not to be reminded that the MCU is becoming a well-funded and glorified WWE.”

I haven't had McD for like 15 years, is it any better these days or same thing just pricier?

I don't believe so. I am sure you've also notice that Claude is already ridiculously good these days, and becoming better for every month. That goes for other providers as well.

I don't know where they are today, but when I left they were very very enthusiastic.

Prompting is being automated.

A company I am consulted at last month is working on a process to have Figma drawings and business requirements written by BA's to be translated to Angular.

Their goal is to have the software engineering steps entirely done by AI.

I am with you, AI is a tool, and it matters how you use it.

I believe overuse of AI will be detrimental to your cognitive function, because the brain, like most organs in your body needs "exercise" to function well.

Thanks for bringing up the whole picture. No down-votes from me.

Except that they have to deal with angry people who bought a dodgy chipped unit.

Yeah it's stupid, but people doesn't know better, they'll complain loudly Raspberry PI is sh* it doesn't work and the Pi Foundation are scammers.

I can understand why they don't want that.

Because if they are riding it safely, there would be no need to bypass the restrictions.

There is reason for speed limits, they are not there to f--k with people for fun.

From what I've seen on the streets, people bypassing the restrictions will not, and there will be injuries.

I am a little more concerned over creeps, stalkers, pedos and teenage bullies.

In all honesty, a license matters little to nothing if there is no enforcement behind it. And enforcement needs pockets deep enough to drive a legal process.

A normal person like me? No way, I can't afford the money nor time.

I know GPL have some backing of SFC and FSF, but all others like EUPL, MIT, APL and so forth?

If this was the same in the 1970's my parents would have been executed and me and my siblings in a orphanage.

Actually the village would probably enjoyed that, I was a real "Swedish Emil" as a kid..

Your loss then. Although I prefer KDEnlive, OpenShot is not a bad video editor.

And I don't think it's a terrible thing for an open source developer to try to earn a few coins.

These threads are amusing.

In an earlier one about Iceland and EU, people criticizing EU were downvoted, called russian bots or far-right. I don't expect much difference here.

Chat control and ProtectEU are certainly not the last totalitarian measures EU will invent, there will be more. And I find it interesting that people still defend EU without any hesitation.

Now I think the initial trade union was great and a necessary counter weight when competing with larger economies and countries. But it rather quickly evolving into something that is less concerned about the citizens, and more about staying in power.

It could also be that the Gimp team and community wants their software a certain way, and I don't see why one should disrespect that?

Those who disagree are welcome to fork- and maintain it, if the users see value in it, they'll switch.

Someone has to be responsible, because it sure won't do to call Anthropic at 4 am and ask why Claude caused your service to rack up $5m on AWS and delete all backups.

Are Flutter and React Native still viable choices today?

I get the impression that more are going for native mobile, KMP or PWA.

Question: Is there some kind of official protocol for Mastodon?

Reason I ask, is if whoever is in charge have considered to support moving posts and interactions from one server to another.

If you have any domains that does not use email, it may be a good idea to set up some DNS records to prevent it being used.

DNS SPF record: mydomain.io. TXT "v=spf1 -all"

DNS DMARC: _dmarc.mydomain.io. TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject; sp=reject; adkim=s; aspf=s"

That ought to stop anyone trying to use your domains as source.

It's not that bad, they still make money on consumer- and micro batteries. Needs a bit of restructuring.

I don't really see a problem with this decision (or the one regarding crypto), they were voted on by the active members of Codeberg, simply a democratic outcome.

You need to specifically register as an active member to get voting rights.

Ah slight disappointment, first I thought it was a revival of the hack-n-slash Moonstone-game from the Amiga era.

But projects made in Zig are just as cool :)

They could just sidestep it, by making the electricity free but the transport or cable use more expensive, no?

I've tried to learn rust of the longest time but failed, it's not the community that is the problem but the language itself. It is far from aesthetically pleasing, a child of perl and c++ meta template programming that inherited the worst traits of both.

Go and Python are my current preference, and C being an old soul mate.

If I understand it correctly, their target is projects like the recent pgrust (PostgreSQL in rust) which are full conversions of projects that no-one else will ever use. It's just noise.

I am not a believer, but pray that whichever $DEITY is watching over Donald Knuth allows him a healthy and long life to reach the achievement of finishing volume 7.

This is really good!

I use htop often but pretty much only use it to find pid or cpu-culprits, and never really understood the rest.

Euro5 also means >90% less exhaust fumes compared to Euro1 which was introduced 1999 iirc. The difference between a 1950 and 2026 Vespa must be huge.

Funny that the article didn't mention it.

Infineon got €1bn of tax payer money to open the plant (~$1.1bn).
