I have a profile on it but haven’t updated it in over 5 years. Probably worth just burning it

He’s almost twice your age and can’t afford to pay for dinner while you can?

More like Epic, Sony, and/or Microslop

Fuck off, bootlicker

policing only those in arm’s length

Dude, you’re on Lemmy. Do you not realize how many people on here are saying “fuck it, let’s drop Google and Microslop and stick with FLOSS”? How many people on here are trying to convince others to switch too?

These people are already doing what they can to steer the entire tech space in the right direction. But it’s hard to influence the giants directly. To do that, you need good FLOSS alternatives, which doesn’t work if those alternatives start riddling themselves with slop

It’s going to get better that it is today and we’re going to have to live with it.

Just shut up with this line.

Every piece of human-made code that’s available online has already been trawled hundreds of times, and anything new doesn’t get added often. There are no more examples for AI agents to use in training that weren’t used before. Their progress in generating code is plateauing.

AI generated code is still notorious at hallucinating API calls and making code that doesn’t work. And the code that does work tends to be overcomplicated and unoptimized. And this code isn’t easily maintainable because the “developers” weren’t involved in its production.

Oh thank god.

I know commercial farming is usually terrible, but this bit just seems like a win

Once I turned 16, I would have a beer with my parents once or twice a month. Despite being in the US, in my state it’s legal for parents to give their kids alcohol, so it was no big deal.

Personally, I think it can be a fairly healthy introduction to alcohol, so long as the parents aren’t just giving their kids a 30-pack and letting them loose.

Never bothered with weed, I was never (and still not) interested

Maybe the TF2 Sniper had the right idea

I didn’t have fascists scientifically proving that they’re cowards on my 2026 bingo card.

It’s still just as funny as the flat Earthers that keep accidentally proving that the Earth is round

I give it about 3 weeks until they put a different DRM in it

I would totally use a search engine called dogdog

Guillotining all the car lobbyists would work, but that’s frowned upon

because it’s nigh fucking impossible to get computers and humans to drive together safely. it’s almost like we need a new transportation revolution) will overhaul society.

Or we could just build a rail network and avoid the problem

I could say the same to you. You’re the one who sent a link without checking if it was relevant to the conversation.

Most people would accept that they made a faux pas and quietly leave the thread. Instead, you decided to get defensive and snarky about it. Grow up.

I had looked to possible anonymous payment methods for Proton and found nothing before.

I asked because you were making a claim against what I had found. Not my fault you made a false claim without proof

I don’t see any anonymous payment methods on this page.

Tuta has a 3rd party provider that you can send cash or Monero to and get a gift card to pay for your account.

Mullvad will directly take cash and Monero.

I don’t see anything suggesting that Proton does anything similar

You wish

Because of this comment
