11·5 months agoBecause it’s far too easy to point out that Melania lied on her citizenship application, and she would be deported under that idea, too.
Not that Trump would mind. It would enable him to start fucking his daughter, or Laura Loomer.

Technology@lemmy.world•Study Boldly Claims 4K And 8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes, But Is It True?English
2·6 months agoGood to know that pretty much anything looks fine on my TV, at typical viewing distances.
Watch the intro video when you first turn on the mac book. REALLY.
If you miss it, or whatever, find the current vid to watch. Before I did that, it felt like the touchpad was insane, and just doing random shit.
And get iTerm2. Its better than stock.
From there, its just a UNIX with a funny window manager.

27·6 months agoA huge problem are developers who lack a fundamental understanding of how the internet even works. I’ve had to explain how short, unqualified names resolve vs how fqdns resolve. Or why even you may not be able to reach another node in your proverbial cluster, because they are on different subnets. Or, why using GUIDs as hostnames is a generally bad idea, and will cause things to fail in unpredictable ways, especially with deeply nested subdomains.

News@lemmy.world•Users vow to boycott Spotify after streamer runs ICE recruitment adEnglish
5·6 months agoI moved to Tidal, and out of 10,000 tracks, I lost ~30 of them.
Other than missing the “Magic shuffle” which helps me discover new stuff, its a good enough streaming platform.

2·6 months agoIt is not “normal” to run a 4 year money loser and claiming to be worth billions.
Only in made up financial land does that work, and causes cyclic depressions where the working class loses wealth, and the oligarchs further concentrate wealth in their hands.
And you said its driven by companies making money… the big AI companies driving this bubble are losing money.

3·6 months agoThe problem isn’t the imaginary market, which I agree with the description. Its the leveraging of debt, to gamble in the market, which is what low interest rates enable.
And yes, our interest rates are VERY low still. I’m looking at some ARM packages right now, and their max lifetime interest rates are on par with what a typical mortgage was about a decade ago.

Technology@lemmy.world•Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubbleEnglish
4·6 months agoThe vast majority of what’s happening here is not debt.
Most of what is going on in the AI sector is most certainly debt leveraged. Like, I’m looking at the books for several companies deep into AI.
I mean, how much profit is OpenAI turning right now?

5·6 months agoGoldman Sachs also though NINA mortgages were a good idea, and they also thought it was a good idea to bundle bad mortgages in with good mortgages, and find a rater to mark them AAA investments.
And then we saw how that worked out.

6·6 months agoI don’t think the AI bubble will burst is because it is driven by companies that actually make money.
Last I looked, the big AI companies are all hemorrhaging money.

2·6 months agoOh, yeah, I guess I kinda tossed that out there, as they do host a ton of servives. However, its very welcoming as an onboard ramp to learn about *nix stuff. Just ease yourself into that, while exploring Disroot and RiseUp :)
