  • BMW Is Showing Commercials On Their Car's Dash Screens And They Want You To Think It's A Treat

  • At this point, it would be better to just lease the car. What's the point of buying it if the manufacturer still controls it and it's not actually mine?

  • Thoughts on crowdsec

  • It's great! I use it on both my home server and my Hetzner server. It blocks connections based on behaviors defined by scenarios. I configured it to block any connections it decides to block via the firewall.

    So far, so good. I don't even know it's running. It just does its job of blocking bots.

  • Should I vote?

  • In history, we learn two things. Either you can work within the system by voting, pressuring the government to change its stance, or striking like the French. Or, you can spark a revolution to change the current order.

    If you don't vote, you're being passive, like Humpty Dumpty, just looking at the world pass you by without making your mark.

  • Should I vote?

  • My take, if you don't vote, you don't have the right to complain, simple as that.

  • Apple M7 Ultra Chip Planned With Up to 1.5 TB of Unified Memory

  • Basically Apple will be building the perfect computers to run local LLMs.

  • Rebuilding a social platform – how to use an AI agent as a pair programmer, not a black box?

  • I recommend changing your perception of AI as merely a tool that requires human verification.

    If you cannot verify its work, then you need to learn how to. Allowing AI to code a complex service like Lemmy will introduce significant bugs that you won't realize are there.

  • How do you reduce screen lag in cloud gaming?

  • According to the laws of physics, you can't. Light in fiber optics does not travel instantaneously to your location. The farther away the server is, the greater the latency will be.

    The only way to reduce latency is to choose a service with servers closest to your location.

  • Microsoft has finally clapped back at the famous PS4 game share video, but in a very weird way

  • What about to a PO Box if they're available where you live?

  • Steam Survey - June 2026 shows Linux dip to 3.69%

  • These small variations tend to happen because the data is not perfect. The important thing is to see how it trends over time. When we clean up the data to reduce the noise of the ups and downs, we see that it's trending up.

  • US Energy Secretary: “I'm thrilled to report that tomorrow morning, on July 4th, we will end subsidies for wind and solar projects”

  • Well USA, you have signed your demise against China.

  • What do you like about the fediverse and why?

  • Exactly. For me, it's quality vs quantity.

  • TIL that yesterday morning, Microsoft increased Office prices

  • It's all Visual Basic compatibility. Many companies use macros and programs written in Visual Basic inside Excel. As long as they continue using Visual Basic, they will continue using Excel.

  • So it begins

  • Welcome!

  • What do you like about the fediverse and why?

  • It is a federation of multiple instances with one goal in mind: to liberate human interaction from gamification and algorithm manipulation that makes you addicted to the platform, allowing them to brainwash you with targeted ads.

    As for Lemmy/Piefed, the goal is to liberate and free human speech without profiting from it or being manipulated by algorithms and features like Reddit's karma system.

  • TIL that yesterday morning, Microsoft increased Office prices

  • How good is the recent update of proton on steam and does the newest linux kernel add anything for gaming?

  • It's about incremental improvements. Proton: game computability and performance. kernel: video card drivers optimization.

  • Immich v3.0.0 is out, with Workflows preview

  • As this is version 3.0.0, I'll wait a bit before upgrading.

  • Time to bring back physical media on PC?

  • No, it's not beneficial. The difference between consoles and PCs is that PCs have an open infrastructure, which lets you back up your data to any medium or service you want.

    For example, if Steam goes out of business and doesn't release the DRMs, they will easily be cracked. You cannot say the same for consoles.

  • Ontario pushed ahead with strong mayor powers expansion despite 'predominantly negative' feedback

  • Exactly! To me, the amalgamation is a disaster.
