I run a UNIVAC 1219B. It’s AWESOME!

This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

SirShanova,

But imagine the controversy a government would receive broadcasting various kinds of content. People deride the BBC as a mouthpiece of whichever party is in power despite immense work making it as impartial as possible

SirShanova,

And then we get into the weeds of how do we decide who gets grants? I’m a fairly enthusiastic watcher of Linus Tech Tips, and he discusses that the entertainment tax grants the Canadian Government gives out are so complex that only the largest companies (the ones who do not need the grants) can hire people to navigate the bureaucracy for the tax breaks. Is choosing artists going to be an America’s Got Talent competition? A random draw? What source do we get viewer/listener numbers from?

I would love to resume the federal government’s artist programs like under the New Deal, but the reality is that our culture is more niche and divided than ever. Rather than swing and jazz being unquestionably dominant for music in the days of yore, now we’d have to check and verify every SoundCloud rapper, YouTube artist, and pop-megastar.

SirShanova,

Finally, someone who gets me! My windows installs turn into such gargling abominations with all the customization I force into them that I could never relearn (before I retire) how to do all the stuff I can on windows in Linux.

SirShanova,

Before Apple went ARM, they weren’t perfect, but they weren’t the worst. You could swap RAM on iMacs, change out storage on Mac Minis. But as they adopted ARM, RAM was incorporated into the SoC. And while poor for interoperability, there are notable performance improvements in this system-in-a-package design. More so, they do allow for some storage upgrades with the current Mac Mini and Mac Studio, even if it’s still somewhat user-hostile.

As for the charging question at hand, yeah…they probably WANTED something stupid like they did with MFi certification on lightning cables, but it seems as though the EU has already warned them about that. Hopefully we’ll end up with a pretty nice usb-c experience!

SirShanova,

My dude, “”””enriching”””” is a strong word

SirShanova,

Yeah like, cmon, what do you think the pyramid sits on. On the floor??? No, on the holiest of of foosball tables!

SirShanova,

I don’t know if the visually impaired know what the me at a wedding meme looks like.

Alt text: A man in pajamas, looking disheveled and unkempt, captioned “any important occasion ever”, while the same man smiling and well groomed in a suit captioned “ethoslab mcc day”

SirShanova,

Depends on you define best or known for when it comes to cars. Sure a BMW is nice but a Lexus will last twice as long for a fifth the price and is good.

And bread, for invention, depends on whether or not you count leavened and unleavened separately. In terms of best, French bread is definitely S tier though.

SirShanova,

If I saw someone shoveling fries into my bag with this, I’m giving them a nice tip

SirShanova,

Know of any A19 LED bulbs that last for an obscene amount of time?

DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too

The DRM removal tool to remove DRM from ebooks was taken down from github and will most likely be taken down from gitlab soon as well. The more archives we have the better so im sharing the gitlab in hopes some Datahoarder types will archive it and keep it shared via torrents etc gitlab.com/bipinkrish/DeGourou...

SirShanova,

Is there an equivilant of this site for the North East/New York Area?

What really means the federation of universes, and why you must plug in your brain again

For a few weeks I noticed many publications as the likes of "What about the nazi and/or communist admin of this instance?", "How can I move my account to another instance, 'cause I'm stupid, I come from Reddit, you know?", "How do we pay for the server maintenance with so many users, should we start selling ads?", "Should we...

SirShanova,

Reddit wasn’t only for people who know how to set up an instance. It was for artists, for gamers, for people of all ages. If we want Lemmy to have any staying power, to have a user base that fills the hole our hearts left by Reddit, the diversity of communities and content, then we can’t expect every Skyrim Grandma and Rule 34 artist to set up their own instance.

SirShanova,

Lmao, never even realized there was a misspelling!!!

SirShanova,

Tbh, Russia would be good geographically. Huge swaths of their frozen tundra becoming grassland and valleys. Shame, uh, everything else…

SirShanova,

Seems like there’s a lot of comments, keep it up y’all!

SirShanova,

Exactly this. I’m successful a cybersecurity compliance analyst today because whenever I got around my IT father he laughed and was impressed with me. If he yelled and made a stink about me circumvented firewalls or gained admin privileges, it would have turned me off of this path real quick.

If no one is getting hurt, foster that shit! Make ‘em think and make ‘em work! They’re always smart enough to know when you let them win versus when they impress the pants off you!

SirShanova,

He kissed a girl, he liked it. The taste of her cherry chapstick.
