The classic sloppy reporting tactic of “dozens”. Somewhere between 1.5 and 33.3 dozen I guess?

I’ve been pretty excited about what I’ve been seeing from Affinity. You’re right, they’re not there yet. But they’re closer than anyone. They need more money and time and they will hopefully get there.
I want to point out, because I see this chart or something like it a lot. Adobe has an absolute monopoly in the professional design space. None of these programs can remotely come close to the creative suite if you’re doing more than tinkering. If you’re making memes or doing some personal image manipulation, you can get by with GIMP or something. If you’re creating professional art or creating files for print or publication, you need Adobe. It’s scary that one corporation holds so much sway over an entire industry but they definitely do.
Too fucking late. I’ve already installed Bluefin on two machines and Bazzite on my gaming machine. I’m not going back.
I’m not sure it’s going to be that. That was the model for the last wave of tech advancement layoffs and job replacements. This one is going to be so much dumber.
It’s no secret that most companies are stagnant or losing money right now across the board. For many reasons, disposable income is way down, COVID mentality change (people decided they wanted to live instead of just consume), and products have just been getting worse. So, CEOs are using AI to replace jobs that AI cannot yet replace. It immediately makes their bottom line look better for investors while doing nothing useful. This will bite them in the ass soon but they’ll say AI was oversold and it’s not their fault. Meanwhile, they look like the nothing they’re doing to improve their company is working and will survive another day.
Great reference. Also, you can do gifs in Lemmy. Not sure if everyone knows that or not.
Out of Sight being the best one.
These were all good. This one made me laugh.
I didn’t see anyone saying that but the correct response is: in the next billing cycle we’re going to start charging X amount per month for X amount of traffic or we have to bump you to to the next tier.
If things are so dire that the traffic is causing problems the correct response is to throttle certain domain traffic until it gets figured out in some way.
Pay X amount in 24 hours or we remove you entirely is extortion.
The OG llama. Before The Emperor’s New Groove, before Tina in Napoleon Dynamite and before llm’s.
it might’ve taken another century before we got spicy gasoline pasta recipe,
The Anarchists Cookbook has had the recipe for napalm for a bit now. But I do get your point.
This is Be Kind Rewind for Internet searches. Love it
Eh, I’ll take it though. I live in a fairly quiet part of town but the street has gotten pretty busy in the last could of years. And visually, I guess the street seems to open up making drivers get… spicy now and then. The fucking motorcycles, man. These noisy fucking middle-aged infants making 130 decibels while only going 15mph make me see red. I’d gladly take the lawn equipment noise.
Not when it’s done badly. I believe there was one on the front page of Lemmy just this morning.
The trick is waiting for Boomers to die. This is where your nursing skills can really pay off…
My Unraid NAS and media server is called Madmartigan. The Proxmox server running Home Assistant, second Pihole instance and my bookmark manager and such is called Willow. My raspberry pi that I use for testing and such is called Brownie.
Are you suffering from depression? Depression takes a lot of mundane memories away. If you work on mindfulness with some of these basic tasks like showering or cooking, you can improve the retention of your day’s events.
Same. I took some of the money I was paying for streaming services and paid for usenet and vip service opensubtitles. Black Friday hit and I got more usenet services which is great to have.
I like having the content but I was fine paying for legitimate services until they started trying to fuck me over.

You can run your Jellyfin connection inside of Kodi which has a ton of configuration options like the volume control.
