  And why is that a problem?

  Google searches also usually generate mostly useless results, which is impossible to combat. Thankfully the person doing the search knows what they are looking for, can try different solutions, and learn from multiple results to get to a working solution.

  Why do you consider AI different? Nobody is expecting it always give correct solutions, just like nobody is expecting Googling something to always give the correct solution.

  I’m not saying AI is useful, but I’m saying that a tool being fallible isn’t inherently a problem, whatever the tool is. As long as the user knows it’s fallible.

  How dare you. If it’s your last thought then you are clearly not answering the question and thinking about how you can do better afterwards!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨simpler times⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately the money went to other people who had too much of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨let's kill proton mail⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not on Proton’s side, but whoever sent you that email obviously has both your info and your Proton address so they know it’s connected to you, even if Proton doesn’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was on social media before web browsers existed. I am Legion.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And Facebook Messenger and Gmail Chat (or whatever it was called)! There was a glorious period of time where you could talk to pretty much anyone on any service from one chat app.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was on social media before web browsers existed. I am Legion.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Steam could stop asking in California, since it’s now the responsibility of the operating system to tell Steam your age.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the USA attacking Iran?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  OP posed two main questions:

  • why did Israel become an ally of USA
  • why did Israel attack Iran right now

  Saying that Israel is an ally answers neither.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the USA attacking Iran?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How does that answer any of OP’s questions though? Israel has a lot of allies and yet it’s the USA in particular doing this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The irony⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Student loan debt is an American thing, but the sentiment is common in companies around the world. So it’s unlikely that’s the case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s obviously subjective. To me this car just looks like a generic expensive car. Looks the same like every other car.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know, I think it looks cool.

  Completely impractical, shitty car built by a Nazi that nobody should even consider buying. But in terms of looks alone I like it. I’d gladly drive one in, e.g. in a video game (if the look wasn’t associated with Musk, unfortunately it’s tainted now).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Heartily agree⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s pretty ok in some European countries

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shit, I'd pay $9⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a feature on Pixel phones

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally, a mortal who gets it!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Makes me think, how much water would be needed to extinguish the Sun? I’m guessing a lot more than of it was a ball of fire, which would already take more than exists on Earth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Badabadeedabadie!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can have them add it, it “only” costs $100.000.

  Is music not considered art?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When I’m on desktop I never go to Lemmy because I have better things to do or work on. So I end up only browsing it on mobile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who doesn’t use the voice chat feature of Discord, I am always confused when people suggest things like Mumble as an alternative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone Hates Windows Right Now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You need some reading comprehension. The title is obviously referring to a recent sentiment shift which has become very apparent with many people in the media and YouTube bringing it up. Obviously the the vast majority of Windows users don’t hate it, that’s not how the word “everyone” is being used here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Draw!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Why do you assume it’s a bad thing?

  You renovated your house? Cool, so you are a resourceful person, maybe you can also be asked what did you learn while doing it. When I ask that question people often speak about their hobbies, or side hustles, or learning, or family obligations, it’s almost always something positive about the candidate or their character.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Draw!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of you live in some dystopia, I swear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unity launches Walmart SDK to "seamlessly integrate products" into games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A high quality VR store where I can actually physically browse the isles would be superior to trying to browse a 2D website. And being able to pick up a product, with a realistic 3D model, look at it from any angle and visually compare packaging sizes across brands - like I can in a real store but can’t on a website - would be nice.

  I can’t tell you how many times I accidentally ordered a too small or too big version of something, because product photos on websites are always the same size (just fill the frame).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Many parents cab probably relate⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Their kids’ needs don’t matter, what matters is that the parent has a successful child. The measure of success is of course from the point of view of the selfish parent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Github Banned a Ton of Adult Game Developers and Won’t Explain Why⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Due to the nature of git, all developers already have a complete backup of the project and the entire history without a separate remote.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Github Banned a Ton of Adult Game Developers and Won’t Explain Why⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Except the difficulty in migrating from GitHub is not moving the source code, that’s the trivial part.

  It’s moving the discussions, issues, releases, free CI on GitHub Actions, free hosting on GitHub Pages, stars, visibility, existing community around the project on GitHub, losing contributors. These are the problems, not configuring git for another remote.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some website logins have the username and password entry on different pages?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s often implemented with JavaScript, yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lying motherfuckers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love it, it’s smaller than both PNG and JPEG while better looking than both.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sorry for bad crop⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a joke, the corn is a type of crop, and this one is bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose wisely!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but that’s an argument against being able to live forever, not an argument against evolution being able to happen, if you did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose wisely!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is indeed what happens, and it is helpful. But I disagree evolution wouldn’t happen without it.
