Even if you believe Israel to be completely justified in everything they do, there should never be a blanket ban on criticizing the methods of a country at war.
The workers literally get paid bonuses for each phone that gets made. The phone’s parts all get certified for sustainability. They need to find manufacturers willing to fulfill their requirements, for which they will obviously charge more.
I’m not saying that they’re for everyone or should be free from criticism. I personally decided against buying one due to the size, performance and camera. But if you’re complaining about a sustainable product costing more than a regular one, you’re missing the point and were never in the target audience in the first place.
The Steam Deck’s multitouch screen might be its most underutilised feature. Until recently, I wasn’t even sure whether devs could use it for anything more than simple mouse emulation. But I’ve just started playing “Sky: Children of the Light” on my Deck (which is generally a great experience on Deck, especially on the...
I’m currently waiting for all the components for my PC upgrade to arrive. Got the motherboard today and immediately upon opening, I noticed that the CMOS battery was not in its slot but just kind of next to it loose on top of the board. The slot seems fine, it seems to fit securely in there. No scratches on the board either....
Aus meiner Sicht Aufgabe der Eltern auf die Internetnutzung ihrer Kinder zu achten. Gibt ansonsten ja auch Software, die den Internetzugriff lokal auf einem Gerät einschränkt. Wenn man unbedingt eine gesetzliche Lösung will dann könnte man ja die Nutzung solcher Software für Kinder vorschreiben. Damit würden zumindest die Rechte der Erwachsenen auf freien, anonymen Internetzugang nicht angetastet werden. Für notwendig halte ich es aber nicht.
I heard Windows 11 has been updated to take screenshots of your computer. Is it theoretically possible for them to delete content from your PC or external hard drives if they can determine that you have pirated content on them? Can they theoretically report you for it? I know it’s unlikely but is it still possible? I’m...
Anything is theoretically possible on a closed source operating system. But it’s not likely. First of all, this “feature” is only compatible with “Copilot+” PCs, so your system probably won’t even get it. It also would run foul of privacy laws in in many places. Especially if they did that while claiming the screenshots only stay local. That’d be a huge lawsuit waiting to happen.
I used to have an account on feddit, which is a german lemmy instance. For three months now I am only getting “Server error” when trying to visit it. Can anybody reach it? Is there any site where I can check the state of instances? Or was I banned?...
There was some issue with the picture database causing the frontend to break. The admin has been absent since then, apparently prioritizing some personal issues. There is an effort to create a replacement for the instance, in cooperation with a group called the fediverse foundation. It’s currently unclear if the admin will give over the instance or whether an entirely new one will have to be created.
Does anyone know, or can anyone guess, the business case for predictive text? On phone apps, it is often incredibly difficult to turn off. Why is that, do you think? (The examples I have recent experience with are Facebook and Outlook mobile apps.)...
Der AfD-Spitzenkandidat Maximilian Krah will nicht alle SS-Angehörigen zu Verbrechern erklären. Das brachte für Marine Le Pen das Fass zum Überlaufen: Keine Fraktion mit der AfD mehr, heißt es jetzt....
Für LePen geht es auch darum, sich vor den Wahlen jetzt möglichst moderat zu zeigen, wie es schon für Meloni wunderbar funktioniert hat. Vielleicht sollten wir froh sein, dass die AfD das bisher nicht macht/schafft, sonst könnten die Umfragewerte noch viel düsterer sein.
Erstmal schöne Pfingsten! Frage mich, soll ich für uns ein feddit 2.0 starten, zunächst mit Photon (100 Prozent kompatibel): elest.io/open-source/photon zum Beispiel, oder klassisch elest.io/open-source/lemmy zum Beispiel mit elest.io....
Ich glaube wenn man eine nachhaltige Alternative zu Feddit aufbauen will dann sollten die Verantwortung und das Hosting nicht mehr bei einer einzelnen Person liegen. Sonst besteht prinzipiell das gleiche Risiko dass bei unvorhersehbaren persönlichen Ereignissen die ganze Seite ausfällt und man dann wieder woanders hin migrieren muss und damit natürlich jedes mal einen Teil der Userbase verliert.

Some of the first swine flu cases in humans in the US were in Michigan, so Biden being “sent to Detroit” makes sense. Way more than it would for Covid.
If I’m paying for my goods and services with actual money, but using prop money for tips, is that bad? In my understanding, tips are given of one’s own free will and would be considered a gift to the recipient, the same as if I gave flowers or cookies as a tip. I’ve also seen fake money passed off by religious people that...
