  • Bluesky is finally open to everyone. But will anyone come? We ask its CEO.

  • Federation of a service is confusing because it is a difficult problem to conceptualize. There's no way to easily explain how to use federated services to non techies.

    For me? That's fine. I can use federated stuff.

    For my mom? Nope. But she needs to get off the internet in general so that's probably a bad example.

  • Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro?

    Jump

  • I agree with his take on the apple vr shit, but fuck nazi notch.

  • Are there any immutable distros meant for NAS systems or home servers?

    Jump

  • Is there a performance impact on the jellyfin server by having the NAS on a separate machine? How long does it take to serve a 20gb rip of a bluray?

  • Are there any immutable distros meant for NAS systems or home servers?

    Jump

  • Honestly I had never built an NAS and installed an OS on it before. I've only ever used the junk that ASUSTOR puts out and I want to have control over things. So a good part of the reason I asked on here was to see what other people had done and why.

  • Oh I like the look of that.

  • Are there any immutable distros meant for NAS systems or home servers?

    Jump

  • It's mostly for running media servers like jellyfin.

    Jump

  • I want immutability because I come from a the debian world where everything just works. But I want the benefits of using modern versions of packages.

  • Apple's Vision Pro lacks any real vision

    Jump

  • Honestly I kind of agree with op's submission. Apple just didn't have a real plan for what they wanted it to be. It sits in an awkward niche between AR and VR and it sucks at both as a result.

  • A heads up display that could overlay useful information onto the world around you would be amazing.

    • Provide directions.
    • Point out businesses that are hard to find in a crowded city.
    • Give real-time measurements and placements for construction (this is already a thing).
    • Pokemon Go

    The problem is that the apple vision is huge and bulky. They need to shrink it down to the size of big nerd eyeglasses. Microsoft did the same thing with their whatever it was called. I played with it a few times at different tech demos. It was garbage from the start because it was heavy, uncomfortable, and the refresh rate was intolerably slow. Apple's is a slight improvement in a few categories but it still completely misses the point of what AR should be.

  • A man opened an emergency exit and walked on a plane's wing. Passengers are supporting his action

    Jump

  • Plenty of systems require operation to know if they are functional or not. So it's pretty easy to think of ways that the aircraft can indicate a malfunction when it's first leaving the gate with passengers aboard.

    That doesn't mean it is any less shitty.

  • How private is Apple's Private Relay, really?

    Jump

  • My main concern is that cloudflare knows what content it is serving and it is certainly fingerprinting your browser. So regardless of how you request the data, cloudflare knows.

  • Deleted

  • Are you a magpie?

  • Only Voters Can Truly Disqualify Trump

    Jump

  • Pretty sure the SCOTUS can agree that he committed insurrection and the 14th amendment would bar him from holding office.

  • Hacking into Kernel Anti-Cheats: How cheaters bypass Faceit, ESEA and Vanguard anti-cheats

    Jump

  • Both are bad. One is objectively more bad.

  • DNA Nano-Engine

    Jump

  • Yeah and if you do it enough times, the usb drives might assemble into grey goo.

  • DNA Nano-Engine

    Jump

  • That seems so... odd. It's like building a working computer out of tens of thousands of usb thumb drives.

  • Ruffle (a open source re-implementation of adobe flash player) reviews improvements made in 2023

    Jump

  • Yeah but it was an unsecure piece of shit for more than the past decade

  • Do EV's actually do anything beneficial for the planet?

    Jump

  • That's only because the US and other first world countries have shied away from mining rare earth elements because it is traditionally a very dirty and polluting industry. So poor and developing countries did it their way... with slavery and incredibly ecologically damaging techniques.

    New techniques are being developed in the US that solve those problems. It originally wasn't worth the effort because we had plenty of lithium to make 18V drill batteries. Since BEVs have proven to be capable and desireable over the last decade, critical material supplies just didn't keep up and those new techniques were just a twinkle in the eye of some smart people.

    If you'd like to learn more about how we can completely avoid the slavery and pollution problems related to getting lithium, take a look at the Salton Sea enhanced geothermal projects. I am personally going to invest a portion of my life savings in that company if given the opportunity.

  • Polls Show Trump Could Be Doomed If He’s Convicted. Will a Trial Happen in Time?

    Jump

  • He has so many sympathetic fascist-state wannabes in positions to affect his crimes being brought to trial that it is just incredibly difficult to do. It took individual states to act like NY and GA and then a special federal prosecutor Jack Smith to actually bring meaningful charges against him. In NY, it was delayed because the AG at the time was in his pocket and had been for decades. The GA prosecution was delayed because the AG was busy going after sycophants he used as tools so as to use their convictions to bolster his case. Jack Smith only got appointed in 2023 and he's been working his ass off on multiple cases simultaneously.

    So yeah it takes time. I'm frustrated too. It would've been great if all of this had played out the minute Biden got into office but that just wasn't up to him - the processes had to play out on their own. Otherwise we'd create a politicized justice system (well, more than it already is) with a fucking gestapo going after political opponents. That's just part of the price we have to pay for keeping an semi-blind justice system.
