Thanks. Just installed a new OS and I’m still working out the kinks. I had that extension installed previously but because it just works in the background I didn’t even think to re-install it.

Ah, yes. Truly, I cannot argue against this impeccable logic. I am swayed.

Couldn’t even read the article. That website is cancer.

product could be on market in five- to 10 years

For a laugh, I occasionally review the ‘Market entry’ column on the table in this article.

I’ve been hearing this ‘5-10 years’ lark for ‘5-10 years’ now.

The Teletubbies theme song was pretty cool.

Heard of them, but couldn’t name a single song or pinpoint their genre.

Checked out a song on YT to get an idea and it was literally just a generic boy band. I mean… I guess their songs rhyme? But then, so do nursery rhymes, and they haven’t been my thing for quite a while now.

To each their own.

I’m not opposed to either. I think of this a bit like procedural generation, except better.

Speak for yourself. As an avid gamer I am excitedly looking towards the future of AI in games. Good models (with context buffers much longer than the .9s in this demo) have the potential to revolutionise the gaming industry.

I really don’t understand the amount of LLM/AI hate in Lemmy. It is a tool with many potential uses.

I take posts like these as an opportunity to block people who spam Lemmy with stupid nonsense. I’m heartened to know I won’t ever see a post by this person ever again.

I guess pretty much everywhere is authoritarian because they disagree with your definition of ‘work’. This person was refused entry by Canada for the same reason. They would have had their visa cancelled in my country and likely dozens of other countries too.

Many countries specifically have a visa for people who will be working to support themselves (often titled ‘working holiday’).

She was refused entry to Canada.

In fairness, this person was working on a tourist visa (likely an ESTA). The only reason she was placed in US detention is because she tried to enter Canada from the US and was refused entry by Canada.

I don’t support the nonsense Trump’s administration is doing, but this appears to be entirely unrelated. ESTAs (eTAs for Canada) explicitly prohibit you from working.

B-but my hands! They’re so BIG!

Okay, so listen to this, everybody. The Stardew Valley NPCs are getting all upset with me for digging in their trash, like, seriously? What’s the problem? I’m a genius, folks, very successful, and I carry this town all the time! They’re all like “Ew! That’s awful!” But you know what’s not awful? The fact that people showed up in droves at my last rally - a gigantic crowd! They love me, they really do! Without me here, Pelican Town would be in shambles, believe me! So let’s not kid ourselves, don’t test me, or I’ll show them what a mess looks like!

I had to read this 3 times to make sense of it… Look, I know full stops are overrated, but commas are important! And they’re easy too, just place one in the exact same place you would if you paused while speaking.

This is ingeniously spiteful and I love it.

This is a good explanation. I can see how a multi-tiered approach like this makes sense, particularly for those most public-facing. Thanks.

Late response, but well, late’s better than never.

The initial constitution of Gran Colombia (which also included Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela) allowed for jus soli (lit. ‘right of soil’ i.e. citizenship by being born in a particular location).

This joint state failed for a variety of reasons (e.g. colonial influence, regional disputes) and each country had to amend/rewrite their respective constitutions. Colombia rewrote their constitution to remove jus soli citizenship after the breakup.

Historical records aren’t precise, but after Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela separated, the remains of Colombia (the initial ‘parent’ country) likely faced an immigration crisis from the ‘new’ nation-states. Adding additional restrictions on migration when rewriting the Constitution after the breakup was likely an attempt to respond to the immediate migration crisis.

That’s a good point; my company actually does implement something like this, though it invites intervention from the recipient for confirmation. I have previously received e-mail notifications stating that an e-mail has been ‘held’ as being suspicious and provided me an option to ‘release’ the e-mail (in these cases the e-mails were genuine and known in advance to me).

Of course, I have no simple way to determine if there is also an additional hard filter that blocks out obvious phishing with no notification to the end user.

Jesus Christ can you at least be accurate?

Speaking of accuracy, your comment seems to identify the wrong issue. Navigating the install menus in a non-Arch linux distro is pretty much analogous to Windows. The biggest difference is that Linux distros don’t have 3-4 pages where they sneakily try to include privacy-breaching clauses during the installation.

The real issue is starting the installation in the first place. Windows is easy, because hardware manufacturer’s have en masse bent over to willingly present themselves to Microsoft, Linux doesn’t have this advantage and users must figure out how to get around the 7,000 different Secure Boot UEFI configurations before they can even start the installation process.
