prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Uber Eats undercover: Delivering your food for $1.74 an hourEnglish82·6 months agoI use it, I just tip way more than anyone else in my area tips. Mostly out of guilt, partially out of solidarity for the working person. I like to think my order at bumps that avg hourly rate up at bit.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•Bazzite turns the Asus ROG Ally X into today’s best handheld while putting Windows to shame.English3·7 months agoI’ve been running it on my laptop for months and it’s been a fantastic experience
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft tries to convince Windows 10 users to buy a new PC with full-screen promptsEnglish51·8 months agoJust get rid of Windows completely so the crutch isn’t there. Use a Windows VM if you absolutely need to.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•The official support of Windows 7 has finally ended today!English7·9 months agoKDE these days is better at being Windows than Windows. Dunno how long it’s been since you’ve used it (or how much/little you tinkered with it)
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Google backed Israel’s military. Now its workers are in revoltEnglish15·9 months agoSeems like you might be the one who needs to get out of the house…
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Nobel Prize awarded to ‘godfather of AI’ who warned it could wipe out humanityEnglish25·9 months agoThe nobel prize comitte has since long abandoned Nobel’s will in this matter
How long? Wouldn’t this just kind of suggest that criteria is simply different at this point? Maybe complex electronic devices didn’t exist back then, so one can really only guess as to what he would think. Because he’s been dead for a very long time…
The prize is named after the dude, he doesn’t get to decide the rules of its award in perpetuity.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Google backed Israel’s military. Now its workers are in revoltEnglish10·9 months agoAnother symptom of extremely silo’d educations. As someone in a STEM field who took a couple years extra to graduate because they didn’t declare a major for two years, I see this shit constantly. Clearly, very intelligent people who have been once again let down by our education system, but this time at the University level.
To the point where I will probably get downvotes and angry replies about how learning that other stuff is useless. But I can tell you that it’s absolutely not. I’m an engineer, and “Logic and Language” is still, by far, the most important course I’ve ever taken…
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Google backed Israel’s military. Now its workers are in revoltEnglish291·9 months agoThe person is literally talking about their real life job… Maybe it’s a foreign concept to you, but I’m not sure you can get more “grass touch” than that, bud.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•How do VPN companies get away with DMCA?English21·9 months agoJust use mullvad. Pay for it with Monero if you’re super paranoid.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•How do VPN companies get away with DMCA?English2·9 months agoPrivate trackers are no more “secure” than public aside from the barriers to entry… However, it’s not like someone working for the MPAA couldn’t pass an interview or whatever it is they do these days…
I’d still use a VPN if I were still on private trackers.
That said, I use a VPN always, so… 🤷🏻

prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Former Google CEO says climate goals are not meetable, so we might as well drop climate conservation — unshackle AI companies so AI can solve global warmingEnglish411·9 months agoAKA, “let the poors die while I hide out in my bunker, and emerge as a feudal lord among the survivors nearby”
EndeavourOS was the first Linux distro I used when I switched a little over a year ago.
I have not tried any other because I have felt no need. And I’ve gotten so used to using pacman, and Arch repositories for maintaining everything, that I have no reason to try anything else
yt-dlp is the gold standard. Not only for YouTube either. Check out the man page, the amount of shit it can do is insane.
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•there's now more ads in "legit" sites (YouTube, amazon) than in piracy sitesEnglish4·9 months agoNever raw dog the net like that…
prole@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Someone Put Facial Recognition Tech onto Meta's Smart Glasses to Instantly Dox StrangersEnglish3·9 months agoThey’ll probably just end up making a (very expensive) method of obscuring themselves from the recognition tech. That way they won’t need to pass any laws, and ad companies (or cops or anyone else who knows how to jailbreak their hardware. Probably) can still take advantage of the technology in some way.
Because 💰

This is how (at least elder) millennials learned everything they know about technology. It’s the only way imo
