⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think defense attorneys who defend cops who unjustly killed people are ‘good’ people?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
I think most attorneys have no morals, otherwise nobody would defend billionaires who killed people in a DUI, serial killers with irrefutable evidence, pedophiles with their name written millions of times in evidence seized to a pedophile ring leader, and so on.

When I installed pihole at home the Number One request in the network was the Google nest thermostat. Why the fuck do you need to upload the temperature or other stuff this often?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You okay babe?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Trump paid for showing me (located with an european IP address and an european account) a facebook video ad boasting about how now overtime is tax exempt. It was awesome: it was an ai-generated pixar style ai slop about some men coming back after some work in oil field or coal mine and hugging their kids, opening the letter with a huge “pussy hair” signature saying that now overtime pay is not taxed.

If you don’t pay, you don’t see the results.

The test is free, but not seeing the results.

It’s very infuriating, especially from this website, because it’s a 40 questions test which require some thought. You can easily waste 30-40 minutes before getting asked your email via email. Then you click the link via email and you get those fake loading bars that take like 2 minutes

✔️ Loading results
✔️ Reading all your responses
✔️ Elaborating your score
✔️ Comparing your score with other people
✔️ Generating your certificate
✔️ Fetching your certificate

And only then, when your patience is almost gone, and your expectations are at the top, they ask for a symbolic payment to “maintain their service”. What to do? Rage quit after having wasted one hour on this scam or pay the $2?

I’m sorry to report that in order to see the results, you basically fail the IQ test:

It’s a very dark pattern, they ask the $2 only after 40 minutes of questions and after getting your email for spam. Then they show that classic fake loading and fake elaborating screens. At that point you’re exhausted and just pay

It’s the same stuff if you ask it to help you master a foreign language in dialogue mode

- Sure thing! Now say “travel”

- great job! You really aced the accent!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PS5 Price increase collapses PlayStation console sales in Japan, with Xbox gaining⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Xbox gaining high percentage because they sell 100x less units than Sony.

From that famitsu issue:

Hardware Sales (followed by lifetime sales)
```
Switch 2 – 59,543 (5,011,059)
PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 12,141 (1,248,515)
Switch OLED Model – 7,468 (9,526,329)
Switch Lite – 4,807 (6,903,964)
Switch – 4,067 (20,0271,045)
PlayStation 5 Pro – 840 (341,548)
PlayStation 5 – 558 (5,910,474)
Xbox Series X – 525 (325,952)
Xbox Series X Digital Edition – 278 (29,362)
Xbox Series S – 129 (341,622)
```
So, PS5 digital non pro sold 12k units while the equivalent Xbox digital non pro sold 120 units.

If next month a Japanese retailer does a clearance sale and sells 200 Xboxes the headline isn’t “Xbox got a massive 100% increase in sold units in Japan, while Sony tumbled 2%”

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was wondering why the €40k printer at work was choking with "simple" Canva PDFs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

The prior-generation ‌Studio Display‌ had 64GB of storage, so the new displays have double the capacity. Apple likely found it more affordable to use existing NAND storage from its iPhone supply chain rather than to invest in smaller modules with less storage. Most of the 128GB is probably unnecessary.

probably unnecessary
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was wondering why the €40k printer at work was choking with "simple" Canva PDFs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Because it is a raster image processor, it rasterizes pages at 1200 DPI CMYK raw files, then applies proprietary color correction profiles, algorithms, imposing booklet and so on.

I tried a totally blank page, if even 1 mm bigger than 1319 inch (330489 mm) the server crashes (I presume OOM)

So when there are one billion vector objects or transparencies, it takes like 1 minute per page

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Breaking: BAD⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Really, it’s too slow. The 40 mins episodes could be condensed in 5 minutes shorts.

I rage quit during an episode where Kim Wexler asked “do you want a cup of tea?” And then proceeded of preparing it in FUCKING REAL TIME!!

Ok, it’s more cinematic, but usually when they do this they just take a cup prefilled behind the counter and move on, don’t need to show the whole process. Ok, probably it’s intentional, to show the detail how how empty and lonely were the cupboards but…

So, for me it’s too slow to be watched with full attention but at the same time there are too many important details that are shown “silently” to be watched while doing errands or something else
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They're calling it the Trump Laptop. Highest quality. So affordable. We're making technology great again, folks.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
That one I don’t understand. It’s just a gold colored Chinese phone from Alibaba. Probably they put more effort in designing the box than ~~designing the phone itself~~ choosing the right tone of the gold color for the plastics. It takes 1 week of consultation with the manufacturer (ok, two weeks, because they need to explain how important that a gold wallpaper is set as default) and two months to import them. What are they waiting? Mr FIFA peace prize just want the money and deliver a “air” phone?

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Game preservation only works if people care" As GOG doubles down on its commitment to saving old games, it's asking players "who give a s**t" to support its crusade⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
No, but the workaround is to let the launcher use a different config

We don’t have plans to support multiple accounts, but you can still run Heroic pointing to a different config folder by using the XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config2 env variable. You could create a shortcut to something like XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config-user-1 heroic to open Heroic for one user and XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.config-user-2 heroic to open Heroic for another user.

you can login in heroic once and then install what you need, and disable cloud saves as default option

with family sharing the DRM does not allow two people to play at the same time, don’t ignore this huge inconvenience
