Letting gallowboob “moderate” the basically the whole front page was an insane decision. Some of those guys were selling product placement.

The centralization of power to few mods was always a problem, but smaller communities got by.

The huge quality drop came when Spez felt he missed the IPO wave around 2018 and decided to growth hack the site. Then they finally killed most of them too with the API drama.

Popular and moving away from hot to best was also bad. They horribly failed to discipline abuse from the_donald for years…

New reddit is still not even usable from a phone. It crashes frequently and i swaer to God it only shows like 8 posts and just fucking loops through them (how have thry not noticed this, I only check 4 subreddits and its unbearable).

Canada, I wasn’t aware he threatened NZ too.

Yeah, I’m already done with Trek under the Ellison name.

I’ve cut off all these services already though, as an F U to the US threatening to annex my country, and virtually no Americans standing up against that.

This means the would-be buyer will pay WBD billions of dollars if the deal is not completed.

That’s critical because the biggest X factor is regulatory approval. The Trump administration will review any transaction between Netflix and WBD, and some analysts expect a political and legal battle to ensue.

We’re about to see how much Netflix wants to kiss the ring and what lines they’ll cross for Trump.

Why would she need to?

That’s like cigarette companies arguing smokers were more likely to get cancer even if they haven’t smoked

I hate that we’ve let whineocracy win.

This is gross.

There’s no way she should get released. What she did is beyond atrocious.

Is it possible to create a shim to make keyboard shortcuts act like macOS? I don’t think I can live with ctrl+shift+c when command/super is right there.

Actually I kinda want to throw almost all the desktop/gui conventions for Linux out and do my own thing.

That’s some software gore.

How does that even get shipped?

This command actually solves more problems than it causes.

So what’s happening here is Google is feeding headlines into a model with the instructions to generate a title of exactly 4 words.

Every example is 4 words.

Why they think 4 words is enough to communicate meaningfully, I do not know. The other thing is whether novel they’re shoving into their products for free is awful, hence the making things up and not knowing in the context of a video game exploit is not the same as the general use of the word.

Thanks.

I always avoided c++ for its complexity and bad error messages.

If rust is better at that then I’ll give it an honest shot.

I hope we demand a refund and fire them.

What a waste of money, I hate these companies and I hate that our government keeps using them.

I get they’re all scared of fixed costs but at this point how much have we wasted on these companies? They could have hired 7-10 full time employees at $80-$100k for a year for the cost of this one report. They could have hired 4-6 highly qualified professionals for that cost. They could have hired some really good term employees.

How many reports like this are we wasting resources on?

I think the next language I’ll learn will be rust, but Odin has been recommended to me a couple times now.

I do want to try that one out

That would finally be a convention to replace slamming the phone down in rage.

I’m waiting for one that unrolls like a bamboo placemat.

I’ve been enjoying zig.

It feels like when I go to write C, but without a bunch of code churn/copy paste on getting just the right memory management interface.

It’s not perfect, and the API churn makes it really annoying to find decent documentation. But it’s fun.

Someone should have told him about bazzite, I just installed it (because someone here told me to last week) and it basically just worked.

Waiting for ffmpeg to run over several hours or spending 30 days vibe coding his own video editing software is something I would end up doing though…

I migrated from Apple Music to Qobuz as part of my dropping of US services.

It’s very much playlist and release based which is great for both curation and discovery. At least I’ve found myself discovering more music from their playlists, which are often curated by musicians.

They do have a “for you” list but for whatever reason only show it on mobile, and it’s not my favourite algorithm.
