The irony of British people handing over their data to a company named Palantir…






Grunt can never be safe. I have seen warehouses of a few online retailers, and the people working there always are at risk of life debilitating injuries.


I have XM5 which is also made by Sony, and is their most expensive headphones. So they clearly know how to make BT work. They just refuse to, to sell you their damn Pulse headphones.


New consoles used to be a big deal. Generational leaps still are, but we’ve fallen into a malaise in recent years as new models and more powerful advancements come along and we all shrug our shoulders before getting on with our day.

That’s a distinctly “game journalists have nothing to write about” problem.

Anyway, this was a chance for Sony to finally ship functional Bluetooth with their damn Console. Guess not.


I have a sneaking suspicion that most memes are from CS students, it all makes sense. People with jobs don’t have time to make memes, get angsty about languages, or syntax issues.


There are way too many Notepad enthusiasts out there.


I use eth, and random disconnects still happen. Switched to an SSD from an SD card, and it’s a bit more reliable now.



Such a bizarre thing to get mad at. What should they do? Ship you a $80 yubikey?

Edit: Oh wait! You think you can’t sign in without biometrics. That’s what happens when you spend too much time on Lemmy that mere mention of Google blows a blood vessel.






Oddly enough Java. If you weren’t brainwashed to write the “enterprise Java”, it’s surprisingly succinct. More so than Go, whose forced “simplicity” ended up making it more verbose.


The debugger can’t handle the chonkers app I work on.



I bought an Asus Vivobook (M7400Q) last year. It sells with two variants, Intel and AMD. I obviously chose AMD…only to realise that the thunderbolt port on it has been crippled, not allowing USB-C charging.

Why? Because Intel paid ASUS to do so. So yeah, fuck Intel and fuck ASUS. And finally, the real kicker? ASUS discontinued the model, so I can’t buy a new charger for it either (which I needed for the office).


Apple Bois being homeschooled. Still somehow bullied.



This interface is brought to you by World of Tanks!


All this makes a lot more sense with the lens of mobile gaming. Effort required is little, and margins are huge. If players don’t partake in microtransactions, you just bombard them with ads.

This is the future of Unity. They are counting on devs not even bothering with the whole monetization model and instead expect them to turn on IronSource ads.




You can’t share your home with religious zealots and murderous hobos. They should get out before the whole country turns in Afghanistan 2.0.




So they are just reporting opportunity cost and the journalists are parroting the numbers.


Don’t most companies have Blackrock on their board, who had been buying real estate for the better part of the last 5 years.





What a bizarre take. Isn’t Canada’s housing crisis linked to corporates and foreign investors hoarding up residential space? How many foreign students even are there in Canada?



Fucking Linus to slimy bitch. You took a bright eyed joyful person and took advantage of them.


Digital currencies, crypto based or not, will end any semblance of freedom whatsoever. Govts will decide what transaction can happen and what cannot. You can forget about supporting any causes that your Govt doesn’t like.

Tech sectors’ eagerness to build this dystopia is appalling.
