I used to not care at about that, but now that I have an HDR OLED I kinda have to, which makes it even more annoying.

I can use the monitor's auto-shutoff timer, but the desktop treats this like it was unplugged and shuffles my desktop around, then shuffles it again once the display is turned on

Regardless of active market share the point about burning their reputation is still true, and that will shift use over time. Same with Intel's poor rep now. 12VHPWR got even worse with 50xx over 40xx and people noticed. Multiple broken driver releases for a while and people noticed.

Lot of stuff still seemingly broken/not great on Wayland but KDE is going full Wayland soon so idk maybe that will finally change after 12 years

I'm under the impression that simply nobody has bothered to port screensaver functions to KDE/Wayland but I recently went thru the same discovery and it would just be a nice thing to have

A page that looks like a scan from an old game magazine. A circular graphic contains a watercolor illustration of an enthusiastic wormlike dinosaur thing with a smiling yellow star and a worried looking blue diamond. A box in the lower half contains an illustration of a treasure box with a funny face, decorated with white crosses. In front of it are a green potion, a gold coin, and a silver key.
There are also 2 game screenshots. One is of a title screen, featuring the dinosaur like worm, and one is of the same character standing in a little stonework house before a blue spheroid face, which is speaking.

The text on the page is one continuous statement and does not relate to the images. It says:
Header: Wondering how young I’ll die.
Featured text, next to round illustration: We now take it as granted that the western empires will collapse.
Title screen screenshot: In a real sense, it has already happened.
House and dialog screenshot: we were born into a dead world.
Text below screenshots: and now decay begins. We, having prepared all our lives for a future that can never arrive, feel lost. We must go on living. But what will life be, and how long can it last? America has become a nation of endless plagues

That's effectively how I function now, I had a single 8oz redbull earlier and I am paying the price for it with a headache

I spent a few hours over the weekend going back and adding comments to my existing code, and you know what? it was absolutely worth it and I would do it again

I don't recall the full recipe but I know it involved dropping a few KABANG energy candies into a can of Amp, both of which I don't think I've seen in any stores in almost a decade

We can speculate on why I don't remember, but I'm sure it's related to my soul nearly vibrating out of my body on Brew

when I was in college and working retail, I'd start my Sunday shifts at the ass-crack of dawn with little (or no) sleep following a DJ set the night before, and make a similarly profane concoction referred to by my coworkers as "the brew"

the fun part about Tim's statement is that if shampoo use came with all of the same ethical, environmental, and quality assurance problems and implications that using GenAI has for the development of a product I'm buying, the yes, I would want them to disclose this as well

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine. I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.

The only way to not let being a hater destroy you is to be very sentimental and loving of those closest to you, there must be balance or otherwise you’re just The Tech Bastard

I am not spiritual/religious, but I find this to be a particularly extra level of gross than usual AI slop. there's something disgustingly profane about using a computer to steal surface-level aesthetics of human worship/ritual, and then using that to try and sell fake books and fake music
