Counter-argument: If AI code was good, the owners would create official accounts to create contributions to open source, because they would be openly demonstrating how well it does. Instead all we have is Microsoft employees being forced to use and fight with Copilot on GitHub, publicly demonstrating how terrible AI is at writing code unsupervised.
They’re a forum where members participate in group trolling, stalking, doxxing, and harassment of their targets.
Not to mention the loss of revenue from tourism.
I’ve always experienced the opposite - native English speakers are horrible at spelling because they don’t have to put any effort into comprehending the language, vs non-native speakers who frequently have to take ESL tests for either academia, work, or immigration, and therefore had more exposure to spelling practice.
Most scroll wheels use an optical sensor inside the housing to monitor the motion of the wheel. If you got paint inside the housing then it can confuse the sensor.
Question: did you take off the top of the mouse to paint it, or at least tape off any areas that needed to be protected like the scroll wheel and the bottom sensor?
I remember that post from slazer2au… https://lemmy.world/post/19338754
When we talk about 2.4, 5, or 6 GHz the devices don’t operate at exactly that frequency, but within a band more or less on that number. For example 5 GHz is actually a set of channels between 5150 and 5895 MHz.
Why isn’t there a 3Ghz, 3.5Ghz, 4Ghz, etc?
Technically there’s 802.11y (3.65 GHz), 802.11j (4.9-5.0 GHz), etc. It’s just that several of these bands cannot be used universally across the globe, because they may be reserved for other purposes. By and the bands that end up being used are ones that don’t require licensing to operate.

The prompt says “can boot”, not “is usable with”. If it gets to the kernel and then hangs that still counts.
Other kinds of severe weather are predictable, whereas there’s a big difference between “this pattern could develop into a tornado over the next half hour, batten down the hatches” and “A TORNADO HAS TOUCHED DOWN NEAR YOU, GET TO A SHELTER WITHIN THE NEXT MINUTE OR YOU’LL DIE!”
Icewind Dale did the same with Baldur’s Gate. Not just the UI, they blatantly reused a lot of the assets too!
Using LLM for format conversion is like taking a picture of an electronic document, taking the card out of the camera and plugging it into a computer, printing the screenshots, taking those prints to a scanner with OCR, turning the result into an audio recording, and then dictating it too an army of 3 million monkeys with typewriters.
Keychron keyboards are solid and maintainable, and available in Canada. Pick a model that supports swapping switches, and start with brown switches perhaps - they’re on the more quiet end of the spectrum, but common so you won’t break the bank. Then over time you can customize it as your budget allows - different switches if browns are not the right fit for you, keycaps of your preferred colour, etc.
Minimum viable product (MVP) is a term commonly used in project management. Typically it’s approached from the perspective of "let’s first do the work to meet the project requirements, and leave nice-to-have features as a stretch goal (i.e. only do it if the MVP is ahead of schedule). The antithesis of MVP is scope creep, which is what you seem to be suffering from.
Wayland Utani?? Was this written or transcribed by AI?
I bought one and put Bazzite on it. It’s now my kids’ gaming console. Integrated GPUs are perfectly cromulent for most casual games.
Are they going to be binning those too?
“sparks”… the outrage has been there for a long time, festering. The only difference is that now the media thinks it’s worth talking about.
A used corporate surplus laptop would be far better.
This is a good opportunity to shamelessly plug refurb.io - I’ve bought machines for my family there. If you can stand the occasional appearance blemish it’s a very reliable site.
It’s essentially a practical application of the paradox of tolerance. And like with that one, the paradox goes away when the offending party breaks the social contract.
Is it? They made a Time Bandits TV series last year, didn’t they?
