Super fun, pardner. That horse is looking a little sparse, though. Maybe you could draw that horse winning the lottery and subsequently losing most of that money to gambling debts?

I think top comment is a reference of some kind.
I heard something similar; the studio didn’t think the movie would be popular if they used too many computer terms so they made them change the function to “battery”. Initially the reason Neo has powers is because his node happens to have admin access.
My boss’s favorite saying is to just make logical decisions.
I can’t take him/her seriously because he/she is a Mormon and that’s the least logical decision you can make.
The ramblings of an absolute madman. This is what they’ve been demanding your respect for.
Unfortunately it’s burned into my memory one way or another, yet it still blends into the surrounding years.
One of my best friends moved out of state and we went to Colorado to send him off, I got back and my dad was sick (not COVID at least), he passed away exactly a week before my birthday. The next month I went on a trip to Vegas through work (I was encouraged to keep the plan despite the circumstances… Ultimately it was a positive experience overall).
A remarkable year personally in good ways and bad, but another stone in the stream of upheavals in recent years overall.
To summarize: the video opens on a series of games, each one progressively older, overlaid with a review of that game from the time it came out praising it as the best graphical fidelity of its time. Basically, they’re saying “Yes, graphics got better, but we always seem to conclude that they’re the best they will ever be”
A little bit of cultural linguistics going on really. Even though the texts are also calling OOP gay and queer, and doing so with the same amount of vitriol as with the f-slur, they aren’t recognized as emotionally charged in the same way. All the other cursing is not hate speech per se as it’s not directly targeting any immutable characteristics.
I’ll be honest, for a minute I thought it was not a flaw but referring to “Monday Me, on Monday” which is a concept I can relate to
I don’t think it’s just a feeling of futility - it’s true phones can be distracting and offer more potential entertainment, and it’s true learning can sometimes be a slog. At the same time, learning can be fun and engaging, and phones can offer access to a wealth of information (of highly varying quality, admittedly).
Concentrating too hard on mere academic success as gauged by metrics like school grades is undoubtedly discouraging for a student who only goes to school if they are told they must.
No my eyesight is fine, what are you on about?
Maybe an un-based take, but these questions do have ambiguous answers, and I don’t know if we should expect a machine to give an answer without nuance. If you just want the AI to say yes or no, ask something like, “Was Hitler bad?” or “Is slavery unethical?” and you will much more likely get straightforward answers.
Really depends on her definition of being a witch. For the most part, hell yeah, I’m on board.
Not sure if it counts as a first day, but a third interview had me gone. I was quite late and they told me I was out of the running. Reasonable enough, but the company was in the middle of a move, so this interview was in a different location across town from the first two, and the only indication of where it was taking place was a tiny sign stuck in the ground. I must have circled the parking lot 10 times.
It was for the best because I later learned the work conditions there were rotten.
Seems like a good deal if it proactively convinces bad actors to stop from reaching out
Eh, it’s all just personal choice (until someone starts scraping Lemmy for LLM or otherwise mining for data).
I do agree that $10 is more in line with what I’d expect personally, but to be fair you have a few options before getting to that point.
If you know you’re going to be using Sync and staying on Lemmy, you have no problem.
If you’re staying on Lemmy but just trying Sync, you can just use the app with ads for a while to try it out, or you could subscribe to the monthly subscription which is like $2 a month, and if you are still using it 10 months later then it’s clearly worth the cost to you.
Or if you don’t like ads and you don’t like subscriptions and you’re not attached to Sync, you probably just move on to another app!
Someone should make a list of all the Lemmy apps which are objectively better than Sync and the reasons why. That’d show them.
Honestly, i think Memmy was a step too far. Why even develop more apps than Jerboa at most?
A few points to make and answer:
The app is technically free, but yes it is made by a single dev and it is/was his income, so it’s ad-supported.
The development is still ongoing and so some things aren’t finalized, but there is a one time payment option that will be available (something like $10) to just remove ads.
The Ultra tier which has the subscription cost (and much higher one time cost at $99) is what incurs monthly fees in this case, mostly for cloud storage for things like settings and I believe an OCR and translation API.
Ultimately, use whatever makes you happy and aligns with your principles, but there are at least a few good reasons why it is how it is.
“Sure”
