Dead monkeys and apes, yes. The bodycount in primates for the development of Neuralink isn't... Fun.

Playstation controllers got it right, or at least, their kind of configuration. Doesn't have to specifically be a controller from PlayStation.

No, he's right. You sound like you're writing a corporate ad.

How about heavily carbon taxing the rich cunts, hmm?

You know, instead of another bullshit scheme to offset the responsibility of climate change to the majority of the population with the least control over it?

Enjoying a stable OS?

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Cutting edge versions aren't stable either. You're essentially a beta tester for new features that may end up in an LTS release.

I'd rather have an LTS release where things have generally been tested well enough to warrant an LTS release.

I could care less.

True, but look at it like this:

I already care very little, and but the possibility of caring even less is there.

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

On the basis that it's Star Trek. But I like I said, I could care less than I already do.

Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads ( www.lowpass.cc )

We are living in a cyberpunk dystopia right now. Or the beginnings of one. We're just missing all the cool and badass stuff from the genre.

Watership Down.

Like, after I saw that movie as a kid, horrible things in other movies didn't really have an impact. Well... That, and I understood movies were all make-belief. I used to love watching making-of features for movies.

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah. Kind of.

Some people have already given their take, so I'll add to it:

The game has a couple of hours of actual, fun content.
After those couple of hours you'll start to notice that everything is the same.
Oh sure, the creatures and plants are made of different parts, but that's as far as the differences go. Every planet has the exact same pattern, every system has a space station with the exact same functions, so eventually it really feels like exploration doesn't matter. Which kinda sucks for a game that's supposed to be about exploration.

I've always said that exploration would've been far more impactful if the universe of No Man's Sky had just a bit more realism in it. This would mean most planets would be frozen iceballs or low atmosphere dustballs with no life on them.
This would make discovering a planet with life on it quite momentous. It would also eliminate the problem of quickly finding out all life on every planet is exactly the same.

I have yet to find any mods that improve the game in the way I'd like... Or that will even work with the latest version of the game.

Who’s Behind All the ‘Pussy in Bio’ on X? ( nymag.com )

Spam is hard. No real platform has solved it completely, and none ever will. Spammers evolve, platforms catch up, spammers evolve again, and so on until the last post is posted and the last user signs out. Individual spam tactics, however, do tend to have short lives, and while PIB won’t be with us forever, it’s notable...

Yes, I use this to hide visual novels, otherwise one would drown in them.

Unfortunately it only works for excluding just one tag, and there are people in the forums, going as far back as 8 bloody years, begging for there to be a proper tag exclusion system.

Except I can look at Jobs' history and see an actual progression in technology. With Musk there is literally nothing but nonsensical hyped up promises.

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Except he didn't.
Jobs progressed technology by essentially bullying engineers into making it a reality.
Musk didn't even put that effort in. He bought companies that were already doing these things

This strongly reminds me of WWII England and their "Carry on!" attitude. Read stories about how families would hide together in the London Underground, and just have casual social conversations with tea and biscuits while the bombs destroyed their homes above their heads.

I keep reminding people that this technology was already in development, that Elon and is Neuralink isn't a unique invention...

The Magnificent Seven (1960 1080p) ( www.youtube.com )

The Magnificent Seven is a 1960 American Western film directed by John Sturges. The screenplay, credited to William Roberts, is a remake – in an Old West-style – of Akira Kurosawa's 1954 Japanese film Seven Samurai (itself initially released in the United States as The Magnificent Seven)....

I'm pretty sure none of them were convicted for overthrowing governments (yet). So your example is hyperbole.

I do not want to see any of them get any sort of power, but that doesn't mean I'm going to let myself get riled up over what some dude merely said.

Considering how riled up everyone seems to getting over what was said, I inclined to believe it was said specifically to get a rise out of their opposition.

In other words; you're being trolled, and they're having a laugh.

No, the Borg had already been probing the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire before that encounter.

Along the Neutral Zone various Federation and Romulan colonies disappeared, whole cities just scooped right up.

Q's interference may have caused the Borg to attempt assimilating Earth much earlier than intended, but the Borg were already on their way and they had no idea.

Due to Q's interference, however, the Federation was made aware of the Borg well before a Cube came on their doorstep.

Those ads in the early 2000s were prophetic. The answer is yes, by the way. Yes I would.

We know so little about the actual process of gender dysphoria. Hormone blockers don't solve or fix anything, but have been used simply because it's the only thing that does something. Essentially bringing a blunt instrument to the problem.

Considering the harmful nature of hormone blockers, I'm for not prescribing puberty blockers to youth. However, only so long as more research is put into it.

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

The person who makes the claim is responsible for backing it up. So yes, if you're going to make a going you're going to do all the research.

Asking for the relevant scientific backing is a perfectly reasonable thing to ask.

I'd rather have no Trek than whatever bullshit is posing as Trek right now.

Or to use your metaphor, There is good beer, there is better beer, there is bad beer, and then there is that weird warm yellow liquid that turns out to be actual horse urine that got sold to you like beer. That's what NuTrek is.

The meaning of woke changed. That is to say, TNG isn't woke in the same way STD tries to be.

TNG is about self reflection, self improvement, professionalism, materialism, humanism, striving every day to make tomorrow better than yesterday.

STD is about emotions, entitlement... And honestly I struggle to find what the show actually says. There's a focus on CGI spectacle. But since STD contains a black woman as captain, a gay couple, and a non binary individual, criticism of its lack of depth isn't allowed.

We see the writers pat themselves on the back for things Star Trek has already done in the past, just to give themselves social brownie points, and if you don't like it you're a sexist bigot. That is what woke means today. It's not true progressivism.

See, climate activists? This means something. Now please stop throwing tomato soup at Van Goge and Da Vinci.

Not to be that guy

Are y'all actually torrenting Linux ISOs. Cus I recommend. Its way faster and fun to have a collection of like 30 distros and try and new branch of the larger Linux tree. I just assume its a joke but I only started torrenting Linux ISO because of seeing it replied so much lol.

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

I always torrent large FOSS projects where possible. It's faster and doesn't tax the servers of the project.

That's not piracy, though, so I'm not sure why it's being talked about here...

If I'm not mistaken, Steam will still keep the games on their servers. Sure, you can no longer buy them, but I'm pretty sure if you own the game you can still access it, and steam keys from the grey market should still work.

@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

Ok, but like... You're talking about people who'd waste money on buying a "cyber" truck in the first place. At that point it's like people buying Apple products; it's less about having the best possible version of the thing and more about having something from Tesla/Musk.

DDG seems to still function nicely. And I've never stopped using bookmarks. Didn't know people weren't using bookmarks anymore... I mean, what do you? Search for the same website you frequently use or just make a button that can do it in one click?

Tattorack ,
@Tattorack@lemmy.world avatar

DuckDuck Go took getting used to for me due to it lacking all the convenient algorithms from Google that... used to in the past... contribute to getting better search results.

The lack of these conveniences is why I switched to DDG years ago in the first place. I realised Google was essentially helping everyone build their own Internet echo chambers and I didn't want to be part of that.

It does mean you actually need to be good at searching for what you want because DDG is very bad at "guessing".

Or to put it differently; I call you complaints skill issues. :)

Likewise. Basically can't see anything rainbow like anywhere without immediately assuming it has something to do with gay.

And everyone else assumes this too, so one can't use a rainbow for something anymore either without everyone else assuming you're making a statement.
