Pirate bay still in operation?
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•ChatGPT-maker OpenAI signs deal with AP to license news storiesEnglish2·2 年前It was the best of times it was the worst of times.
The most timely time of all time.
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Looking for a microphone boom arm, but how do they work?English1·2 年前As far as arm goes, and I know it’s pricey, but the Rhode psa1+ is fantastic. Really smooth operation and a nice neoprene cover over the pinchy bits.
My only issue with it is that when it is in the stowed position it requires space behind the ‘C’ of the mounting clamp. Only an issue if you are installing on the back of a desk that is directly against a wall. I ended up moving mine to the front of the desk and no issues since.
I like the collective ‘we’ makes me feel all warm and federated inside.
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•China’s search engine pioneer unveils open-source large language model to rival OpenAIEnglish1·2 年前Open source as in they are open to sourcing the code anywhere it can be intercepted?
Or am I missing something here.
Maybe I’ll read the article. Maybe.
Connect has some annoying quirks but overall has been pretty good.
Though not gonna lie, the Lemmy web interface isn’t really that bad either. It’s not an app to be sure, but at least it runs pretty smooth.
Take my hand and you’ll see, a world that’s purely federated
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•I really don't understand why companies can't post their pricing on their website ?English34·2 年前Even if you do fucking buy it.
Have had plenty of manufacturers call me 6+ months after a job goes out to bid to sell me their equipment… That I already specified… And was already purchased and installed on the job site.
Like what in the flying fuck leave me alone. At least most reps that actually come in bring lunch.
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto World News@lemmy.world•For the fourth day in a row, Earth has broken or equalled its hottest average temperature recordEnglish235·2 年前Any corrections we make won’t take major effect until well after we are fucked. It’s why having kids is kind of insane to me because they are going to have a fucked future.

anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•New Priming Method Improves Battery Life by Up to 44%English10·2 年前Still waiting for solid state batteries to take off, when they can reduce the weight ratio on batteries to 10-30% of their current weight then we will see some real innovations in terms of tech.
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Logitech has got to be the worst keyboard maker everEnglish1·2 年前I really like my g915 TKL and there are really two main reasons.
Its low profile so it doesn’t cause me to have intense pain in my wrist from inadvertantly arching my wrist.
It also has a really nice battery life so it basically never dies on me.
The fact that it’s mechanical is nice too.
As for the cons? Well the keys have gone to shit. Bad plastic. Still usable but not nearly as pretty as it once was. Also micro USB. But it’s the same story on the super light so at least they can share a connector.
If those issues could be fixed without loosing the benefits id happily move on to something else. Until then? 915 it is. Don’t use the software either so that doesn’t really bother me much.
Apparently I’m an asshole.
Edit: no I’m not a cop LOL
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•You cant even avoid irrelevant results with "site:" anymoreEnglish1·2 年前This is why targeted media and advertisement is a bad idea.
It makes it incredibly easy to test people and put them into information silos where what you see is not what I see.
Yeah sucks back in the day on nationalized television one add would run cross country, but at least then you knew it was going to be scrutinized by a wide swath of individuals. Or maybe the segregation of information was not as widely considered then.
But now? We’ve seen how platforms can engage certain people and even cause mental disability through force feeding insane garbage at them. And the rest of us get to suffer for it, while being blissly unawares as to why.
anticommon@lemmy.fmhy.mltoReddit@lemmy.ml•This is what the official Reddit app looks like, by the wayEnglish102·2 年前Ads should be illegal TBH.
Who needs that in their life? If your product can’t stand on its own merit and you need to bathe swaths of the general public with nonsense to sell anything then maybe your product deserves to fail?
Ooh no!
Anyways…
