Load “*”,8,1 - However, this would not open a specific program, just the first file on the specified drive (if I remember correctly). For a specific program, you would have to name the program.

you’ll end up better

…maybe not if you are part of that bubble in some way, e.g. by participating in the corresponding stock markets that are currently dominated by those tech companies.

What would be the main difference compared to Matrix, which also claims to be “an open network for secure, decentralised communication”?

It’s not a bug - it’s a feature!

Basically it was just a dotted line around your text. But in German it was called something like “ant platoon / queue” or such. I think this function existed between Word2000 und Word2007 if I Google correctly.

There was a function in WORD, where ants could walk around your text…

Trump is only the puppet of some ultra-right-wing forces behind him in cooperation with tech-oligarchs seeking to take over power.

TL;DR: Tech billionaires like Karp see the rest of humanity as their worker bees.

Librewolf as well!

Sounds like free delivery.

This seems to have changed for some direct / online banks. Visa Debit seems to be some kind of “standard” now. Probably the cheapest option from them.

They could produce something useful instead?!

The problem is that the vast majority of payment cards being issued nowadays are either Visa or MasterCards (both physical and virtual). This makes it very difficult to avoid US companies when it comes to cashless payments. My current bank gives me a Visa Debit Card for free, but would charge me fees for a Girocard. I avoid PayPal as much as I can.

“We had a good speech, we got great reviews. I can’t believe it, we got good reviews on that speech,” Trump said of the widely mocked address in which he continued to demand the US take over Greenland (which he repeatedly referred to as “Iceland”) and made new tariff threats against Canada and Europe if they resist the annexation.

Iceland is probably the next country to get taken over due to it’s stategically important position for the control of the arctic sea.

If he would know what that is.

“Komm in die Gruppe, Brudi!”

A nightmare came true.

Why should I? Actually, after reading the article, not just the headline, it left me rather worried. All available resources are being pumped into “AI” now, for the convenience of chatting with ChatGPT about everyday stuff, for creating Grok bikini deepfakes or Copilot MS Paint memeslop.

With the effect of computer hardware, like CPU/GPU, RAM and SSDs becoming unaffordable for normal users (and thus normal PCs which need those components), some day users might have no other choice than owning just a “stupid” rig of mouse, keyboard and screen with all computing happening in some “AI cloud”.

Sounds to me like some top-level enshittification!

I think all of these platfroms live from the engagement of the users there. I like Lemmy, but I’m also still on Reddit, because in some communities, there’s just so much more activity on Reddit than in the same community here.

Technology, UI and everything is fine and important. But if the place seems rather dead it will also struggle to attract new users.

MAGA History on January 6 will probably be like:
