18·12 days agoI think a lot of voters don’t really read or think about a comment, just respond on vibes.

29·12 days agoPfendler finished in just under 44 days, faster than the previous comparable female record holder’s 86 days or the male record holder’s 52 days
Not even close, that’s seriously impressive.
You should! Or people who leave their empty wrappers in the tub with the uneaten chocolates/sweets.
Ignore all the armchair psychologists, this is definitely mildly infuriating, along with people who leave the microwave with a few seconds left so you can’t see the time and you also need to cancel their remainder before you can use it.
I thought it was doing a particularly hammy bit of acting. “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?”
Is this something we can opt out of, like how we can for Play Protect?

Technology@lemmy.world•Canada just cut a hole in the roof of a working nuclear reactor, hauled out eight steam generators weighing 100 tons each, and lowered new ones into the same hole, bringing the reactor back online se…English
109·18 days agoBruce Power cut into the roof of an operating nuclear station, hauled eight steam generators weighing 100 metric tons each (about 110 US tons) out through the top, and lowered brand-new ones into the same hole. Then it brought the reactor back online on June 8, according to Bruce Power, seven months ahead of schedule.
I was picturing some burly Aussie-Canadian lumberjack called Bruce Power doing all this without breaking a sweat.
I quite like that it’s not an infinite firehouse of content - it means a limit to how much time I waste, unlike my Reddit days when I’d often block the site so I could get something done.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Networking: icanhazip.com [SOLVED: CULPRIT SPEEDTEST TRACKER]English
8·19 days agoI must have been a very early user if only went live in 2009! It’s a great resource that’s always fast and optimally concise.
I didn’t know this backstory though, thanks for sharing.
Have you tried changing how much the overview zooms out? I’ve got mine set to 0.25 which gives you three rows, plus enough of the top and bottom ones to get the idea. Of course, you might not end up with crazy numbers of windows and workspaces like I do…

Technology@lemmy.world•AI is making me paranoid about contributionsEnglish
91·1 month agoPart of being a maintainer is helping to onboard new contributors, this is why many projects have a tag for “good first issue”. Teaching people how to use the library/tool is part of that.

Technology@lemmy.world•Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first placeEnglish

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Employees Internally Share Memes About How Its AI SucksEnglish
7·1 month agoKinda weird experience to be reading textual descriptions of memes and having to reconstruct them in my head. They had enough to say to not need to pad out their word count that way.

91·1 month agoI was going to quote this part as well - nice bit of malicious compliance.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•This community isn't your personal adviserEnglish
5·1 month agoIf people want to ask something that they don’t want tied to them, they should use a throwaway account. Scrapers will probably grab the text quickly (especially if they’re using ActivityPub) so it’s a false sense of security to do it days later.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay?English
7·2 months agoI read this disgraceful comment yesterday, and I’ve dug through my history to reply to it today.
@rako, this unacceptable. Let’s remove the mention of AI to see if you can get some perspective… Imagine this exchange:
P1: I’ve been cooking for the homeless but it’s taking up a lot of my time and energy. Is it ok to use shop-bought meals?
P2: You being weary of cooking is belittling the homeless! People like you are what’s wrong with society.
I hope you can agree that this is unfair, and unhinged. It’s also not mischaracterising what you wrote.
@Gonzako you don’t seem to have minded rako trying to shame you, but they were way out of line.
