  • And is this "Obama" in the room with us right now?

  • Spooked by Mythos, Trump suddenly realized AI safety testing might be good

    Jump

  • Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they want to vet the models to make sure they say nice things about Trump.

  • I didn't read this one, but the MS NOW article someone posted said he spent part of his final show selling knives with "Liberty or Death" engraved on them.

    Hmm, I wonder what those might end up being used for.

  • Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down as Apple's chief executive officer, and hardware engineering chief John Ternus is set to take over September1st, Apple announced today.

    Jump

  • Cook is going to transition to executive chairman, and he will "assist with certain aspects of the company, including engaging with policymakers around the world."

    His new role is literally Trump Gobbler

  • Also if you have to hand someone off to another colleague, I find you can just use "we", and it still feels polite. At least compared to calling them "the customer" (clumsy) or "they" (weird, when they're right next to you). 😃

  • Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS

    Jump

  • The report appears to have originated from PCWorld, but has gained mass attention on Reddit with over 12,000 upvotes and thousands of angry comments. The good news is the report is false. According to contacts that are familiar with the Windows roadmap, there is no plan to ship a Windows 12 this year. In fact, I understand that the Windows roadmap for 2026 is all about fixing Windows 11 and attempting to improve its reputation by addressing top feedback such as reducing AI bloat across the OS, bringing back the movable Taskbar, and more.

    ...

    There's lots of other claims the report makes that are also easy to debunk. The codename Hudson Valley is from 2023 and not tied to a Windows 12, the "radically redesigned" UI claims are just based on a leaked concept from 2022 that was never greenlit to ship, and a subscription-based version of Windows has been rumored to be around the corner since 2012.

  • What made you choose your Fediverse Instance?

    Jump

  • There are different things I like about them… 🤔 I really like the way PieFed merges crossposts together, although I wish it could be smarter at "noticing" identical posts that weren't actually crossposted.

    But then, I really like "Scaled" sorting, and Lemmy's seems way better to me. (I couldn't begin to tell you why.) I also like having more choice of Android apps on Lemmy, but I'm sure that'll change quickly enough.

    So I guess it might depend on how development goes on both platforms?

  • What made you choose your Fediverse Instance?

    Jump

  • Because I already started using Mastodon.World years ago, then Lemmy.World, and now Piefed.World. 🤷‍♂️

  • What are some online courses or tutorials that you found helpful and practical?

    Jump

  • Busuu for language learning. It's like Duolingo, but the main difference is that it actually teaches you the grammar, instead of just making you memorise random sentences. It also has some audio and video of native speakers, at least on the Japanese course. And each module ends with a prompt where you freely write or speak your answer (e.g., "What do you like to eat?") in your target language, and then it gets graded/corrected by native speakers in the community.

    And for Japanese kanji specifically, WaniKani. Nothing else I've ever tried has helped with kanji, but their writing style and off-the-wall mnemonics honestly make it so much easier. And you get the first three levels for free, which is actually tons of content.
