  • Nintendo Confirms EU‑Only Switch 2 Revision With User‑Replaceable Batteries

    Jump

  • It's more likely to go up in price for the foreseeable future.

  • If you are formerly religious, how did you leave your religion and what made you do it?

    Jump

  • I was never religious, but at around that age I remember confirming/asking if Santa wasn't real, and then immediately following up with: "And god isn't real either, right?"

    Thankfully, I have atheist parents so I got a straight answer.

  • Euro-Office, Europe's open-source alternative to Microsoft Office and Google Docs, launches June 9

    Jump

  • Collaborative editing and the like isn't really easy to solve with other methods. Maybe a P2P approach could be viable.

  • Flathub Now Rejects AI-Assisted Apps and Submissions

    Jump

  • It's the main flatpak repo, so it does get a lot of use on Linux. Anyway, people who really want those apps will just have to add a third party repo most likely.

  • Please Explain Polymarket like I'm 5 and how it all started.

    Jump

  • so you’re much less likely to actually make any money off it unless you’re really steeped in economics and markets

    You're also competing against people with insider knowledge (depending on what you are betting on) which currently isn't illegal AFAICT.

  • Weird how that works

    Jump

  • Home, residential, and business located batteries will help with this. You don't need to rely on transmission as much if batteries are supplying power physically close to the demand.

  • Also, I wonder what happens to these companies in the future when there are no senior developers anymore, because nobody hires junior developers to train up.

  • I think they are hoping they can make a bunch of businesses so dependent on them that they can't afford to leave. Which could work, but probably not enough for them to become profitable.

    On the individual side, maybe they are hoping to exploit a bunch of whales but I can't see people on average be willing to pay for what it actually costs.

  • Big Tech is turning you into a digital tenant, but there is a way to evict them

    Jump

  • You don't actually need the official Mullvad program either, although there's nothing wrong with it.

    I prefer to just load the wireguard config directly with network manager (or whatever your distro uses).

  • How would you expose Jellyfin securely without a vpn?

    Jump

  • They mean on the client side most likely. A reverse proxy will be transparent to the user.

  • If I’m wrong and LLMs are all they’re cracked up to be, then I will be able to get up to speed quickly.

    That's the way I see it too. And is this path occurs hopefully open LLMs will be widely available and at least close in performance to the expensive, privacy invading cloud LLMs.

    Although it's the non-programming related impacts of AI I'm more concerned about.

  • What does your IPv6 setup look like?

    Jump

  • Almost as annoying is if they give you a single /64. Here's an absurd amount of IPs but you only get one subnet. Thankfully, I've had nothing smaller than a /56.

  • Self-described Trump-supporting small business owner tells Fox 29 Philadelphia that he is frustrated over gas prices: "We didn't vote for that. And we want change."

    RFK Jr. clears path for minors' use of tanning beds, much to the dismay of dermatologists

    Jump

  • Shouldn't be legal, even for adults (like in Australia). This is the type of 20th century quackery we've come to expect from Dr Brainworm.

  • Dell & Lenovo Now Sponsoring The Linux Vendor Firmware Service

    Jump

  • They do write some of the firmware at least such as BIOS updates. This is just a generic update service so you don't need to install a different updater application for every manufacturer, which is annoying for users and for manufacturers.

    And it also supports updating third party devices like SSDs which Lenovo and the like would prefer to happen without any work on their end.

  • VS Code inserting 'Co-Authored-by Copilot' into commits regardless of usage

    Jump

  • Magit is err... magic, but the Emacs hurdle means many avoid it understandably.

  • What are some words where the "opposite" one means the same thing?

    Jump

  • I think there's some bleed between different countries, given increasing global connectivity. I've heard both definitions in Australia which makes sense as we are influenced by both countries but I suspect the British version is more common.

  • What are some words where the "opposite" one means the same thing?

    Jump

  • Slightly different, but single words meaning multiple conflicting things seem to come to mind more readily:

    • Drop meaning both to abandon or release a product
    • Table meaning both put something aside or putting up for discussion
    • Literally meaning both literal and figurative

  • After three months on Linux, I don’t miss Windows at all

    Jump

  • Don't even need a driver with modern IPP supported printers, they just work. At least with basic printing needs, but probably some gaps for complex stuff.
