And now because of all of the media attention being generated he’s getting exactly what he wants. Millions and millions of views on his TikTok. He will likely be able to afford brand new glasses in less than a week.

You forgot Azure. According to my sister all of the internet runs on it. 😂

This is Lemmy not reddit. Unless it’s a political thing on .ml feel free to ask and most people will be happy to answer your questions, especially if it has to do with Linux or FOSS.

If you are using a Pixel with a Tensor processor then you are using a RISC-V SOC.

SOC has a small form factor which can fit neatly in a phone sized device (this us why all phones have them) and RISC-V is a completely open source processor instruction set that can be customized to whatever function you wish to implement.

My Google Keep is several gigs in size at this point.

This potential dilemma just further highlights that cloud-connected devices should be enhanced by connectivity, not reliant on it.

This should be everyone’s takeaway.

The problem isn’t the company possibly going out of business, its the loss of online service nerfing the device that is the real issue.

If you’re really going to do this you need a RISC-V processor SOC. If you look around online there’s a few places where you can obtain these.

That’s not how encryption works. But you’re not wrong about it being owned by meta being a problem. There’s more info in a message than just the contents.

Both are quite secure but neither of them stop an idiot on one end or the other from sharing the contents with the public.

The Orville was a much more old trek-style show, and people universally loved it more than the new trek, despite being progressive.

I’m an old school Trekkie and pretty leftist myself and I absolutely hated the Orville. I didn’t see it as doing anything worthy of such praise. It had a lot of tired humor and (badly) recycled story lines from Star Trek. And I have thoroughly enjoyed just about every bit of new Trek that’s come out.

I also don’t agree with your point about them just presenting things instead of subtly insinuating. The only things they present without integrating it into the story are LGBTQ characters and their personal situations. And that’s only because those things should be absolutely normal and unremarkable at this point. The fact that conservatives still have issues with this is entirely because conservatives are socially backwards. And they’ve been made that way by a constant stream of backward propaganda via Fox News and local media outlets that have been taken over by multibillion dollar corporations who have injected their conservative views onto local news outlets en masse.

In other words them not getting it or enjoying it isn’t a problem for Star Trek it’s a problem for conservatives.

Edit: I also find it hilarious that you think that old Trek was in any way subtle about their social commentary. Having the first interracial kiss on national TV on top of several story lines dealing directly with racism was far far from subtle.

Anti-DEI is racism personified. They coat it in a glossy shade of “equality for white people too” but since white people have literally always been favored, this is not only disingenuous but outright bullshit. The right wing racists have been trying to obliterate affirmative action ever since it was first implemented. They’ve been working tirelessly for over 40 years to set the table across the world for the right wing takeover that is occurring right now. And the only way to defeat it is to fight back with every ounce of strength we have.

It does quite alright in python

That’s cause python is the most forgiving language you could write in. You could drop entire pages of garbage into a script and it would figure out a way to run properly.

There will always be a niche market for independent PC builders. This article pertains more to the smartphone market which have extremely proprietary hardware. I suspect that with Google locking down android, a niche market for non-Android/iOS phones will emerge.

Just look at the LibrePhone project and GrapheneOS announced a partnership with a major phone manufacturer to design a phone around their specifications.

So long as there is a market for such things, alternatives will exist.

Though, the caveat here is that the price of phones not produced with a partial purpose of collecting user data will be quite a bit more expensive than the mainstream phones that give discounts just to get their phones into the hands of consumers on whom they make most of their money trading user data out the back end.

POV: Not all moms are accepting of their daughters being into girls.

That’s the point. If your business has to create a mountain of un-recyclable trash in order to thrive, it should absolutely fail.

“Shit, does this mean I have to re-install the operating system again. Fuck me!!!”

I have uttered this sentence too many times to count.

I thought this was happening in Rome?

Did OP lie in the title?

The producers of the movie: “Thank you for the free publicity! Now far more people will watch our movie than every would have otherwise.”

Yeah cause it’s not like there’s a thousand tablets out there that you can pick up that are the exact same form factor.
