He's not talking about designing your own font. He is proposing to use the font you like and just to create this little "bridge" that you need so that the inside of the o is not falling out manually. That is easy to do and there are not that many letters where it is needed.
Visitors will also be required to provide information on what US authorities dub “high-value data fields,” meaning all of their phone numbers over the past five years and all of their e-mail addresses over the past 10. Moreover, they will be forced to provide personal details on family members as well as provide their own biometric data.
That's an entry ban for many people here. I do not know in which forums I posted some questions back in Dec 2020. I totally do not know the numbers of those prepaid sims I used while traveling 2016 till 2019. I used their mobile data and they have been in the trash for a decade. I also do not not every trash mail, mail redirect and mail service I have used since 2015. That must be hundreds of adresses.
There are some detailed articles around in german tech magazine c't. If you want more information, look there - this initiative looks quite well managed
Let's not blame AI for everything: Reddit had a lot of problems before AI became big. Repost bots are so common that you'll see the same posts over and over again. Some of those twitter screenshots must have been posted hundreds or thousands of times. OnlyFans spam also works without AI. And we have had those bots spamming the same stupid comments before people were even thinking about GPTs.
This seems like a classic windows update issue. In fairness to Microsoft it is difficult to prevent bugs when there is a huge install base, with a huge range of hardware, with a huge range of users on different mixes of updates and updating at their own. I personally think that’s totally believable.
I'm a little bit sceptical here - yes, managing that is complicated. But it also is Microsofts fault - managing and constructing updates that work even with different versions or update paths is possible. I really struggle to see how an update could even kill the start menu or Explorer.
I wonder if anyone has experimented with storing those consoles in an oxygen free environment. Sounds crazy, but there are cheap vacuum sealers around and you can easily push some CO2 from a sodastream into those bags. That works with groceries like salats and it might be possible to put a Dreamcast into a vacuum bag, fill it with CO2 and seal it.
It's totally a problem: If I take a look at my Mastodon account from Pixelfed, there are a lot of screenshots shown and some other random images. Which totally does make sense as I do post stuff like that on Mastodon and screenshots totally make sense there. But if you take them to the center of the stage into a photocentric app, that really does look like shit
I kind of like the idea of a system allowing me to automatically remove clickbait and sensationalism from headlines and replace it with a good summary. But I really hate how Google is pushing that without customization, without consent and in such a crappy state.
Yeah - there is no way that you are able to raise children or even go to the dentist checkup with such a work schedule. And if such a schedule was implemented, that would be the collapse of everything else. Cinemas, theatres, bars, events, sport clubs and so on.
There are people who need money to pay their rent or buy food. He isn't saying that he is not trying to leave, but there are good reasons to stick to a bad job while searching for a better one.
I mean, I can see that it is kind of hard to program your own accessibility tools esp. when you're disabled. But in this case it literally is "Pay money to be spied upon by a ruthless company in bed with the Trump administration" vs. "use this free software that is not spying on you"
I really do not like such comments. Do free alternatives always have to be better than everything else? Even if people would find out that Facebook was always watching them via their cameras and were selling their nude pictures to the Hezbollah, someone will jump into the comments and say that they can't use Mastodon, because some bogus reason. Yeah, accessibility could be better, but have you even taken a look at whatever nightmare UIs Microsoft has been pushing for years?
When we are in the middle of a tech bubble and one of the richest and most connected men on earth decides to cash out, then that is not "stonks crap", but relevant tech news. Some companies stock price rising by 2% is not news, but this? Yes.
Let's be honest: This is military technology camouflaging itself as civilian tech. It totally doesn't make any sense for the proposed uses, but it totally is worthwhile for military purposes. Jihadist sneaking up onto your base in Bagdadh in the night? Light up the sky! Russian drone attack when it's dark? Light up the sky! That border to north korea? Eternal sunshine! Your B2 and B52 bombers are on the way? Confuse your enemy by switching the sun on and off! Protect your convois by always have them drive in the night!
