Oh no. Anyway.

It is somewhat ironic they're showing a Mac in that shot… did Office even run on them at that stage of the game.

I mean… it's hilarious that people still use Chrome when it has been a known back actor for years and years. Firefox is an excellent option and the more people that use it, the more it encourages companies to keep supporting open web standards.

Likewise, if you set an iPhone to use Advanced Data Protection, it's probably quite a bit more secure from intrusion than a similar Android phone. (And definitely more secure from subpoena.)

Thank you. Glad to know I am not the only one that got triggered, lol.

Yep, when it's all staged, you want your actors standing around on-stage not off-stage…

One thing I will say is here in the desert, we don't actually want them either. Water is already an issue. Power costs are already an issue when you're cooling your house all summer/heating it all winter. Data centers provide minimal jobs for the amount of resources they use in a community and the downsides have been discovered in a number of places around the country too (ranging from noise to increased costs to resource shortages). Keep your data centers off our cactii!

Huh. Doesn't change the fact Trump is in the Epstein files. Investigate them both!

This really says it all. I don't give a crap who's in the Epstein files—they should all be investigated.

Ah, good to know in case I ever have to upgrade to wireless!

Well, I was gonna recommend the Razer Death Adder Elite, but they don't seem to make it any more. Maybe the Death Adder v3 or even the Essential? (The Essential is on sale for $20 on Amazon right now, it seems.) I see that the entire line is wireless now… not sure how I feel about that.

As for the why, I really like the way the mouse fits my hand, the wired Elite version has been a tank at home and at work for years now, and the only down-side I've encountered is that it comes with the lights in some stupid pulsating mode and you have to install the software at least once to turn that off. (It remembers it in firmware once you disable it though, so you can move it from computer to computer without having to disable on each computer.)

I literally choose all my books sight unseen from library website or online shop websites based solely on recommendations or prior author experiences. The cover art plays zero role in my decision to buy.

But unlike Google's version, Claude can accidentally regurgitate the entire text or passages from it, yes?

So it's not really internal and this judge is an imbecile, correct?

(I know that previous "AI" engines have been tricked into returning the original paintings and faces of people that they had ingested, so I assume this is also a possibility for this "AI" too.)

 

Anyone have an idea why the Previous button would be missing from all pages? I can click Next and it seems to navigate me forward, but there is not Previous button to go back a page. Checked lemmy.world just to verify it wasn't my imagination and indeed the Previous button is still there.

Things I've tried so far that haven't worked:

  • Disable uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger and TamperMonkey for lemmy.ml
  • Load website in default Safari and Edge
  • Try a few different themes to make sure it wasn't something with the theme I was using
