That is all.

Technically, any image could be printed on new U.S. currency. Slow news day?

GOP plans have the follow-through ratio of a Chris Christie diet plan, so I’ll believe it when I see it.

FCC Chairman: Someone should take care of Jimmy Kimmel.

[deep state assassins terminate Kimmel]

FCC Chairman: Noooo! Not like that!!

I have an idea! What if those filthy Canadians were just stopped at the border and customs can just search them and confiscate any cash, then send them back to Canada and send the cash to Vegas. Then we don’t have to deal with those annoying foreigners and we still get their money.

Do you have an extra room in your house? How would you feel if I moved in and started smoking meth?

Has anyone checked out the fact sheet from CMS: https://www.cms.gov/files/document/wiser-fact-sheet.pdf ?

The openness of Android is the thing that kept me on the platform. Now that the openness is being removed, iOS is now more appealing.

Sadly, I think most of the customers that use Android never sideload a single app at all. I don’t expect this to create a mass exodus, but a smaller one with power users.

This will only be effective so long because gradually apps will require greater and greater API levels. Staying stuck in the past is, at best, a temporary solution.

YOU might think they are well defined terms, but there are people claiming with a straight face that “race X can’t be racist, because racism needs power structures” or all this other exceptionalism. They use every definition but the one in the dictionary.

“white men can’t experience racism and sexism”

A big problem here is that not everyone has a common definition for racism and sexism. Some definitions take existing power structures and historical context, and others don’t. A discussion about this topic should be started with what specifically each participant believes these terms mean. Otherwise you have two people talking about “sexism” but they are just talking past each other because they lack a shared understanding of the term as it is used.

If you were to say “black people are bad” then the rebuttal typically becomes “due to established power structures, white men can’t be oppressed, therefore I can say what I want about them”.

I think it’s hard to have a reasoned discussion where you say “all men do X” because for every X, there’s probably a bunch of exceptions. There is a great amount of variance in male behavior.

It’s original sin, just by gender. I think people underestimate the harm in painting all men with the same brush. Once the conversation morphs from “I hate this thing some males do” and changes into “I HATE MEN” you can’t have a productive conversation.

If those other sources make more money and get more viewers, why did it start on YouTube?

$$$ that’s why. YouTube gives the greatest return. If they post to multiple platforms, not only is it more work, but they then also subtract from the number of views they get on YouTube. It’s all about the $$$.

I’m not worried about anything.

From a PC manufacturer perspective, the important part about including an NPU is that you can slap an “AI” sticker on your marketing. This is regardless of whether it has any actual use cases or not.

There’s definitely a large slice of “AI” features shipping now just to excite shareholders and serve no actual function to the user.

Or… let them stay on Reddit. I like lemmy much better, and it’s possibly due to the people that are not present and the lack of commercial interest.

I’ve never paid for a browser in my life.

Much like electricity, lazy boards seek the path of least resistence. What’s easier, building a world-class browser and properly marketing it and maintaining profitability, or just setting your default search engine to “Google.com” and cashing the massive check?

At this point, there’s very few people even left at Mozilla that could even reverse the trend. Go back and look at their past few years. Other than some minor activity to Firefox, almost all their initiatives are little side missions that last for a few years and then are sunset.

Stuck like Pocket, Mozilla Social, Firefox Send, Firefox OS, etc. The list goes on and on. They invest heavily in some flash in the pan initiative and then ax it off a few years later.

The problems at Intel haven’t even begun. When a big company does layoffs like that, there’s a certain amount of institutional knowledge that just evaporates.

There are going to be a large amount of dropped balls at Intel and this is just one of them.

Sadly, I think instead of the market responding and Intel going under, Intel will mutate into a government subsidized technology company. At least for the present moment, they serve as an example of what could be domestic manufacturing.

To me, their attitudes strongly resemble Blackberry just prior to the iPhone coming out. They have a certain amount of arrogance and are resting on past glories. It’s pretty clear that just cranking up the wattage and shipping a new product isn’t a path they can walk forever.

It’s a shame that Intel was actually on a plan to get things fixed up. Their former CEO pay Gelsinger had told them they had to endure some years of pain before things would be better. Unfortunately, the board was not so tolerant and kicked him out before the plan was fully realized.

Their board has some really questionable members on it too, so all around not a very good situation. Probably the only thing in Intel’s favor is that starting a new microprocessor company isn’t just something you do in the basement, so they have some room to turn the ship around.
