Considering there is already another person replying to this comment saying that 'hacker' doesn't really mean anti-establishment, sharing them here seems like a good way to get a wave of unsavory folks.

>Supreme Court finds that (a) bribes and gratuities are a different crimes under federal law

This is literally my entire point. This is not a nuanced conversation because the supreme court invented a distinction. Read Code § 666, it's intent is utterly clear.

Please explain the nuance I am missing.

Amazing to see!

>Though there’s no evidence a human has contracted bird flu from eating infected meat, the USDA urges people to eat meat prepared at safe temperatures. To be properly cooked, whole beef cuts must be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit, ground meat must be cooked to 160 degrees and poultry must be cooked to 165 degrees. Rare and medium rare steaks fall below this temperature.

I cannot wait for this to be a political point about the woke brigade taking away rare steak.

>Former CDC director Robert Redfield—who helped oversee the agency during the COVID-19 pandemic—told NewsNation earlier this month a bird flu pandemic is inevitable, so “it’s not a question of if, it’s a question of when.”

I remember bird flu being a worry for decades, has the concern of this grown significantly, or is this a bit of a baity article post covid?

I read their comment as the US finding out.

Some comments on the other posts on the topic went over this. Sounds like putting the ad before the keyframe makes it easy enough.

> If there are people killing other people, I wouldn't say that a communication method was to blame. In Scream, Sidney didn't sue the phone company who let the killer call her from inside the house. The idea that some news feed posts whipped people up into a killing frenzy just sounds absurd.

This is the core of your point and a comment on the idea itself, not the way the article portrayed it. I think it's fare to characterize your dismissal as glib.

Not the person you're responding to, but I guess I would just have to flip that back around and say really this is bullshit to be honest.

I guess I don't really feel that you can just say you're an ethical person and have it absolve yourself of impact of your work.

It doesn't seem a stretch to say that the goals of meta are propagated by the things meta focuses work on, and even if one isn't on the forefront of stealing data, intruding on privacy, or maximizing engagement at all costs, doesn't mean nothing they do will play a part in those teams.

At the end of the day, even accounting at the orphan crushing factory plays a part in the orphan crushing machine.

I'm sure there will be some, but even if one takes most of the AI claims as exaggerated, current machine learning is orders of magnitude more useful than bitcoin ever was.

They said smear not slur, and they are pretty plainly correct considering we have everything from sitting politicians using it to describe any legislation that honestly reports US history, to youtube personalities using it to rant for hours about minorities in star wars.

I wish we could stop with the deification of this creep as though he was the only person arguing that proprietary software has concerns.

>To be clear, this is both that political figures are leaning towards the extreme ends of their ideologies

Meaning you believe Biden leans towards the extreme left?

Exactly, any startup will just be on a different place of the enshitification curve.

I have found them to be an utterly incompetent implementation.

Maybe it's an issue with my set up, but they are shockingly bad in a way that makes them feel like they were hacked together. They lack basic functionality like scroll wheel click on any navigation buttons. They are constantly slow in opening. All while missing basic considerations like "Back" isn't separated by tab, so opening a new tab and navigating to a folder makes my "Home" the previous folder for all tabs on that window.

Again, maybe it's my set up, but going back to dolphin I am shocked they get away with something so half-baked.

>this idea you should install on random hardware is a mistake.

Why, it works on windows? And it's not 'random hardware' its the hardware they have and use. You should realize this is a failure of linux, not of the user.

It does have the advantage of context menus that contain all of the context, rather than a button to revert to an older version of the context menu that has what you actually want!

It really has come a long way. Obviously this is one users needs, and other folks will find other things that are missing or not 100%. But the fact that in this case the conversation as moved from gaming more generally, to vendor specific overclocking is quite a sign of the times.

This conversation is perpetually marred by this sort of flippant response. No one expects MacOS to work on anything but Apple hardware, but they do expect a random chip on the motherboard they've been using for a several years to work. Proposing they google every chip on their motherboard to see if they can run linux is a failure of linux.

I would hope that you consider that dismissive replies like this do little to encourage anyone to adopt linux, and instead make the community seem elitist and off putting.

Are they politics obsessed in other politics, or is that particular to Americans?

To read the claims charitably, it could be that fans of open AI, and Sam Altman jumped to his defense in the ways that toxic fandoms often do to women. It wouldn't surprise me if constant flagging and reporting suppressed her presence on social media.

It also wouldn't be the first time a victim of a public figure received employment backlash for coming forward with their abuse.

I think the real question is though, what did you hope to accomplish by asking your questions?

>Most of the platforms have to play ball with quirks and self-interested decisions in Mastodon's implementation of ActivityPub.

Does anyone happen to have examples of things that mastodon chooses do that effect other platforms on the fediverse?

I don't see how this relates. The point was about Palestine as a state. If enough people recognize Palestine as a separate state, this becomes an international issue. I believe this was the A is B claim digging made. What would be the analogous claim for your point? That some folks believe Palestine is it's own state, and some folks don't, and that the views are not mutually exclusive?

Interesting, what makes you say that?

I don't think there is a reasonable definition of 'standard of living' that weights phone specs or TV size over access to housing, healthcare, childcare, education.

Technological advances in luxury goods do not make up for outpacing increases in inelastic necessities, even if off set by some abstracted purchasing power parity.

>Scientists and engineers will need to.

No, they wont.

I think the important thing to note here is that this is about Audio and Video, which the likely don't store anyway for costs reasons. What I was talking about was text in DMs, which would be much more simple to implement, but they choose not to.

Googling it, everything I am seeing says that no part of discord is end-to-end encrypted. Do you have a source for that, I thought they were pretty adamantly against it?

I don't know that I agree with your point about data being necessary for QoS. Many of the issues I have with Discord go ignored, and I've found that more than ignorance, resources are the issue with features and reliability of open source projects.

Further I Googled around a bit to see if I could find if Discord was profitable yet, and didn't see anything suggesting it was. There were some revenue break downs, but obviously that's far from profit. I know there were lay-offs not too long ago, but I would be curious if you have evidence that their making profit.

Though it seems they've taken a number of rounds of investments [0], so if the sale of nitro and other premium services don't cover it. I would not be shocked to learn about an expansion of the "Quest" system that to be more ad like. I remember this specifically being mentioned by the CEO on the Decoder podcast.

My largest grips with Discord is how the community has adopted it as a replacement for forums, and that they have very little interest in linux support, but the former is not really their fault, and the ladder is just the reality of a lot of software. Even beyond those gripes though, I don't know that I agree it is a paragon that won't enshitify like any other for-profit software.

A quick google shows a mumble mobile client exists, but honestly recommending a voice only program as a replacement for discord is genuinely ridiculous on their part.

Matrix is the closet they get. A large part of their point is self hosting, and Signal is a bit better, but still fundamentally resides on someone else's servers. And last I checked, Signal required a phone number to make account and connect with others, which personally is a line.

With how ubiquitous discord has become for online spaces, I don't think it's unreasonable to hope for some degree of privacy, particularly in DMs or small close nit servers.

I think the point being made, with all the abrasion of a sander, was that even in the most controlled case of DMs or two person servers, all information is still available to third party admins, which wouldn't be the case with something like self hosted Matrix server.

I agree with you that this is hardly the most convincing point to 'the friend group', but with every electron of the online experience being mined for potential revenue, there is something to be said for technologies that work a barrier to data siphoning.
