In eu. Its amazing what happens when legislation works.

The thing that shits me about this is google appear to the public to be late to the party but the reality is they DID put safety before profit when it came to AI. The sheer amount of research and papers put out by them on AI should have proven to people they know what they’re doing.

And then openAI throw caution into the wind and essentially make google and others panic knee jerk because there’s really money to be made, and now everyone seems to be throwing caution into the wind and pushing it into the mainstream before society is ready.

All in the name of shareholders.

Not sure why we’re arguing this quote with the same two games over and over. Nms and cyberpunk are great games, but they’re a rarity.

Game Dev crunch is a plague in th industry, we suffer as consumers who cop bad releases on release. The whole industry could learn from its roots and delay things for a better initial product.

Defending the current practice of redevelopment in post is almost consumer gaslighting.

This. It’s even worse in Australia. The only affordable ev is a Tesla 3 @ 55k AUD. Which even then is out of reach of most.

Why not make a 30k EV? Penetrate the majority of consumers.

I’m on a great wage and even I shake my head at 80-120k range of most EVs here. Then you get bwm releasing 180k+ EVs… who exactly is buying them?

When you price a technology out of the reach of people, the tech isn’t the failure.

Niceee

Yeah the strikes and union action hasn’t helped either. Just give them what they want so we can go back to regular ish trains lol

Yeah but the bus uses the same road as cars so other than being cheaper, you’re getting stuck with traffic

Germans. Come to Melbourne Australia, and as you get off at the airport realise there is no connecting train to the city. Cabs only.

Jimmy Carr was on Joe Rogan (I know he’s awful but it was a decent episode) recently and was talking about how Hitler worked out propaganda works best when the “other” feels alien, which is why he closed down clubs in the 30s. Seeing Jews as “one of us” through clubs and hospitality made the propaganda against them ineffective because they were just seen as one of the people and this Hitler guy was just a nut, the whole movie cabaret being about it.

I think you’re right. Melbourne is an amazing melting pot of people, so it’s difficult to be not emphatic towards a cause that would improve their QOL

It’s interesting to see the breakdown by electorate. Electorates close to Melbourne and Sydney cbds voted yes. The further out of vic and nsw, the more the no grows.

Qld, wa, NT and SA didn’t have the same problem. Blanket no.

Tldr, the progressive part of the country that wants this is city focused. The rest of the country has a long way to go.

This isn’t right. Cognizant are a well known systems integrator. In Australia alone recently they bought out some of the best local SIs just to get presence - contino and Servian, with a rumoured third (versent) on the way…

Theyre a body shop looking to grow their born in the cloud generstion of engineers.

What’s the best android emulator out there atm?

Forget chrome management. Any IT shop worth their salt is protecting their egress with a proxy, explicitly or transparently set.

Don’t browse the net on your employer’s network or devices. Use your phone. Get on 4G/5G.

Love this, super enlightening!

It’s not really right wing. It’s just anti type of human. You can be a conservative without the deep desire to suppress a type of person or lifestyle.

Totally agree. Why make someone richer who you ethically don’t align to. It just makes their agenda easier.

Honestly I think we all need to relax. Lemmy is a niche app that’s rising, and it’s one guy. I paid for ultra since it was cheaper than the pay for no ads option.

$29AUD or whatever it was per year for ultra is literally paying a dev once a year for their work, and to keep it updated and build features.

The outrage is really ridiculous considering how quickly the app was built, how decent the experience is and the realities of the real world right now.

Pay the cash, you’re not going to remember it by the time you’re paid next. For the job you did, producing something. Like this guy did.

Ytm definitely does have album content, wtf are you on about. Yes you can play videos there too, but it’s by no means the default.

It’s actually pretty good, just wish they did a lossless tier like tidal

Im the same. But at the same time Zuck is a super intelligent guy. Look at his recent podcast with Lex Fridman. Meta might be an evil corp, but he’s an intelligent, interesting and somewhat self-made individual.

On the other hand, old mate musk used his parents wealth to build a company at an early age that the went on to build more. The more I learn about him, the more I understand he did the classic “surround yourself with smarter people” move while having cash to throw around

Scorched earthhhhh
