Do they call them bicycles though? I’m guessing Amazon has chosen to call the DC one a “bicycle” (despite 4 wheels) because of some regulation they’re avoiding with it or (more likely) some kickback they get for using bikes.

I don’t have a problem with the vehicle itself. Seems pretty neat. But it is not a bicycle.

Is it even possible? Once you make it a dock does it stop being a dock? Maybe if the water dries up, but you refill it, you’ve redocked a deck.

The post suggests that the Jobs/Wozniak prototypes are no longer accurate. I think I generally disagree. We simply have many, many more Jobs than Wozniaks now.

A lot of people now going into tech fields aren’t doing it because they love tech already and want to apply it (Wozniak); they’re doing it because they see the money coming out of tech and they want that money (Jobs). We used to have way more Wozniaks, and now it’s just ever increasingly inverted.

That is interesting, because Bic was founded in and is headquarted in France. I wonder why they are putting America 250 on everything.

In any event, they are the best lighters. They light consistently no matter how long they sit. Can’t let a Zippo sit more than a couple days without having to maintain it before lighting.

The administration is negotiating a federal preemption of state AI laws

It’s soooo much fun watching States’ Rights be either the most important American tenet ever or a stumbling block to progress, depending on the issue.

It’s bad for business. We need them to break down and eventually fail entirely so you buy a new one. And we need to make ad revenue off of you while they’re working.

No see because Iran doesn’t want world peace, so the bombing is just to get the peace without their consent. It’s warpeace.

It definitely was.

Besides just the bugs back in the day, the nature of them was so drastically different between systems. I played at launch on PC, and even then I put ~100 hours into it. The bugs on the PC version were more gameplay/story based and less about performance. I think it was easily the most playable version at launch. Some of them were just funny and I remember giggling when a car would fly into the air or an NPC would t-pose. But I was able to progress and the game didn’t run like dogshit.

Console versions depended heavily on which console. The PS4 (non-Pro) version probably just should never have existed. Downright unplayable mess.

But the turnaround really even rivals No Man’s Sky’s turnaround. It helps that the story in Cyberpunk was always pretty solid. I still wish there were more variation between character paths in the early game. That’s really my only remaining gripe.

Rotten Tomatoes having both scores is exactly why it’s more reliable than IMDB.

I usually pay most attention to the critics score. If there is a massive disparity between the critics score and the audience score, it might be sus.

Ok, no reddit

Totally agree.

The biggest problem with AI isn’t the theft of everyone’s labor. It isn’t even the energy usage.

It’s the fact that no one, ever, considered the fact that humanity has no plan at all for how to deal with the impact of AI. We are watching it take over literally everything, and losing ourselves in the process. No one even considered the absolute negative impact on humanity purely from the standpoint of mental health and wellbeing.

Placeholder art is nothing new. Using AI to generate it is a legit practice

Funny how placeholder art existed long before AI slop, and it didn’t seem problematic.

Of course there are.

It also shouldn’t be surprising that something like Lemmy, an open-source project originally aimed at tech geeks and still used by a LOT of tech geeks, is filled with Linux users. Linux is an open-source project used by a lot of tech geeks.

It used to be limited to Tuesdays, but now tacos are an every day thing.

Really though, the amount of flip flopping is staggering. It’s because the President of the United States has literally no clue what he’s doing.

It took Arch ~19 years just to get archinstall.

Something tells me there won’t be a script.

It is. Easily one of the best games of all time.

You know how you can put something on eBay for any amount of money? Of course it won’t sell if it’s priced too high, but the price can be set however.

Then people with random items go on eBay. They see their item priced at some exorbitant level and make the jump: “this thing is worth so much money!” Even though it isn’t worth that. It never sold for that. Someone just picked a number.

Starting to feel like this is how valuations work.

No one wants to work!

Correction: no one wants to work for little to no reward. A broken social contract with zero upward mobility. Benefits of a job well done only go to the fat cats at the top. Many more reasons than these, too.
