  • Trump administration says federal employees can encourage co-workers to "re-think" their religious beliefs

  • I know it's intentional here, but I cringe whenever someone says 'Allah' in an English sentence because it's just the Arabic word for God.

  • Matrix is good in theory but its plagued by absolutely shit clients.

    Say I just got gifted/loan-ered an old laptop with Windows on it, how do I install Linux on it and also make sure its not still tied to the previous owner and transmitting my stuff to them?

    Jump

  • But to be specific, it's not like some program that was in the old windows partition would suddenly start executing on your system anyway.

    BUT someone who steals/searches the laptop can see that partition's contents (for the bytes not yet overwritten) and recover files, directory listings, etc. which may tie that laptop to its previous owner.

    Also enable full disk encryption :)

  • America wants AI that doesn't care about misinformation, DEI, and climate change

  • Bad example sorry.

    Edit: improved comment :)

  • "America" != "The U.S."

    Its like saying "The French [edit: population] want something form a France PM press release> [edit: because

    <the press release>

    ] "

    Edit: fixed bad example and made the argument clearer.

  • As Spotify moves to video, the environmental footprint of music streaming hits the high notes

    Jump

  • European average carbon footprint for video streaming as producing 55g of CO₂e per hour. This CO₂e or carbon dioxide equivalent is a comparable measure of the potential effect of different greenhouse gases on the climate: 55g of CO₂e is 50 times more than audio streaming and the equivalent of microwaving four bags of popcorn

    What the fuck is this article? This is not helpful in any way. Yeah du-doy the thing that uses electricity "creates" carbon. How bout we remove fossil fuels from the grid then?

    1.1g per hour is ridiculously efficient. An average meal in the Western world is ~3Kg.

  • Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima

  • I assume the reason this specific tool was mentioned is that the "selfie" requires the person to be striking a specific pose. I estimate less than a week until something like the site you linked comes out which is able to do custom poses.

  • It's not true. Wars aren't waged as much anymore because they're too expensive compared to the benefit a state could get. See the Vietnam war in which the U.S. enslaved and killed a bunch of young men and still lost the war.

  • "Streaks" is a string but it would be easier for us to read if it was "streak"

  • We need to stop attaching shit someone doesn't say to something they did. It makes commutating hostile and makes you an asshole.

    Edit: okay that was a bit rude. But it's so frustrating to say something and then have other people go "that means <this other thing you didn't say>!!!11!"

  • "washing your hands isn't a guarantee that the patient isn't going to get an infection, they could get infected some other way too".

    Every single doctor should know this yes.

    It seems people are adding a sentence I didn't say "rust can be unsafe and thus we shouldn't try" on top of the one I did say "programmers should be aware that rust doesn't automatically mean safe".
