Okay I’ll just have a bath installed in the office then.

Games@sh.itjust.works•EA employees brace for the worst under Saudi ownership: 'Hard to feel good about being bought out by a regime that's very much at odds with progressive society'English
1·6 days agoComment:
When has EA ever been in alignment with progressive society?
EA funded the game and put its name on it. That’s as good as EA itself putting out a game full of LGBT characters as far as anyone against LGBT rights is concerned. As you yourself said, they would’ve shut BioWare down if they didn’t like it.
EA was actually considered a fairly nice company to work for in terms of the gaming industry a very long time ago.
What I mean is that majority of the time people here are pro copyright infringement and against copyright laws
Funny seeing people on lemmy suddenly defending copyright now lol

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Llaneli man reached 140mph to 'get to gym after argument' and hit taxiEnglish
43·8 days agoYou know you can just unlimit your bike? Right?
One reason is that unlimited speed roads and also racetracks exist and cars generally require much more driver certification than bicycles which anyone with a pulse is allowed to ride in a lot of places. I know I did over 50 km/h a couple of times as a teenager and pulled all kinds of stupid shit because it’s not like they can take your cycling license away lol

10·8 days agoThat’s how these big companies work, they have multiple studios working on multiple games. You still expect the subsidiaries to mostly mirror the top end.

Technology@lemmy.world•Amazon Caught Destroying Rare Books to Train AIEnglish
201·10 days agoOther AI companies can still buy them, they’re just rare because nobody bought them in the first place. They destroy them because scanning them is faster and in some jurisdictions that absolves you from copyright infringement since the amount of copies doesn’t go up

Technology@lemmy.world•Torvalds: AI Is the New Compiler, Not the New ProgrammerEnglish
1·11 days agoCan’t say I’ve had your experience, Windows always had issues. Think 7 was the least problematic version for me and the last one I remember fondly.
I have a car diagnostics laptop running 8.1 because it doesn’t support legacy boot for 7 and is too weak for 10. That UX was horrendous. Then came 10 which was unusable without an SSD. That sounds like the norm now but back then a lot of people didn’t have them. I’m not even going to mention 11, it came out before the AI craze and has sucked since release.
But the really crazy side of Microsoft is the ERPs. Way too much always changing. Good old systems being retired because they have a worse new one to replace it with, etc.

Technology@lemmy.world•First test flight of largest all-electric aircraft used just $5 of electricityEnglish
2·12 days agoThere are also flights where this could be used as fully electric right now, or very soon if they increase range a bit. If you fly from Tallinn to anywhere via Finnair, you go through Helsinki, that’s like a 30 minute flight. And the reason you don’t just drive to Helsinki is that you’d have to take the ferry which costs more money, takes over an hour and the Helsinki airport isn’t that close to the port.
Similarly, you can fly from Tallinn to the two bigger islands here in Estonia, very short flights versus like a 3 or 4 hour bus ride involving a ferry. 30 and 40 minute flights with the current 30-40 person planes that company uses.
Liberal in contemporary US political conversation doesn’t mean what you think it means. If you support the right of minorities to exist, you’re a liberal. If you support nationalised healthcare and subsidised education, you’re a liberal.

Technology@lemmy.world•Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock OriginEnglish
1·13 days agoIt’s been Chromium based for ages now. Meaning they’ll likely eventually stop supporting manifest V2 too, unless Google makes it easy for them to keep supporting it.



I actually just don’t go to the office anymore but basically the temperature most people find comfortable is hot for me and also I get sweaty walking. I’m built for a nordic winter.
At home I can keep temperatures comfier for myself, prefer about 18 indoors.
