Imagine thinking you are superior because you said the word tea, as if tea isn’t a famously high profile drink in the United States.

Seriously as an American, I don’t know a single person who doesn’t drink some type of tea.

It may be helpful for you to take a break from social media for a bit. This is clearly unhealthy for you.

Air pods just look like regular apple headphones just without wires.
They sure as shit look less goofy than my huge pixel buds that stuck an inch out of my ear.

We already have smartphones that everyone is looking at anyway.
Before that we had newspapers.
You are making up an imaginary dystopia to peddle fear for no reason.

They are replying to the story, which is what has the pics, so the pictures belong to the person on the right side.

This sentence is so poorly constructed and contradictory that it seems like it was written by a bottom of the barrel LLM.

A radio station is a small selection of music curated by an individual and meant for the masses.
Modern music streaming has dynamically curated music from a nearly infinite source, it’s really not the same.

A bot can be very easily made to be effectively unstoppable in an fps, just look at hacking players.
Just as a chess bot can be made dumb as a box of rocks.
They just serve different purposes, for example in counter strike, bots are nerfed in purpose in order to discourage kicking other players to replace them with a bot that would do better.
Chess bots are also the target of computer science researchers, very few if any, serious academics are focusing their time developing a bot for a game that is either a flash in the pan as far as popularity, or actively discouraged by the arbiters of the game.

Not really, the first evil dead just has a particularly egregious scene involving a handsy tree.
The series as a whole is fantastic and evil dead 2 and army of darkness are barely horror movies.
The first movie still has its merits and raimi has gone on record stating that he regrets the tree scene.
Takumidesh@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•eBay will lay off 1,000 employees — 9 percent of the companyEnglish42·2 years agoYou know, I ignored my interest in programming for many years, instead opting for a trade, specifically aviation maintenance. I went to school for 2 years for it, passed tests, got licensed, got otj, got taxi quals, engine run certified, and a whole host of stuff.
I also broke my body doing it for $18, after years and years and years, I finally made $25 an hour, whoopie.
I worked around hazardous chemicals, dangerous equipment, high voltage electricity. I stood on concrete floors all day busting my knuckles.
I fell off a ladder and smashed my face on a keel beam, requiring I get stitches. I saw other people get much more hurt than that.
I did all of this with the constant pressure that if I fuck my job up, people are going die, and I will go to jail.
I went back to school, got a job as a software engineer at a midsize company that never is in the news and you have never heard of, and get to sit at home and make 3 times the salary. There are 10 other companies in the same block as mine that have 3-400 hundred person engineering teams, there are lots of jobs for developers outside of the silicon valley bubble, we mostly just hang out and do our thing.
Until trades start paying more, it’s just not worth it. I’m sure someone will come in and say that they are a plumber and make $1000 an hour or something, but I can say, there were 500 people in the facility I worked at with the same qualifications as me making the same $18.
Takumidesh@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Two-thirds of Americans say AI could do their jobEnglish8·2 years agoNo, but I do remember the advent of online ordering reducing the staff needed to answer phones and take orders at the counter at the pizza place I worked at.
And now those same restaurants don’t even staff drivers anymore, they outsource to door dash (who are now getting paid less, with less protections)
Let’s not pretend that technology improvements can’t cause cascading changes in an industry.

Takumidesh@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Haier, the air conditioner maker, takes down open source third-party Home Assistant integrationEnglish7·2 years agoGenuine question, since the code itself doesn’t infringe on IP (I think) wouldn’t the user executing the code be responsible for accepting the tos, not the repo.
The repo is just static non-compiled text files, it afaik isn’t actually communicating with their servers and therefore wouldn’t be able to accept any tos (implied or otherwise) (I don’t know if there are any actions, ci/cd pipelines, or deployments that would be in violation though)
That’s what, five people?
It’s a lot different when it’s thousands and thousands
