Wait so you’d prefer Russia shells you AFTER you leave the alliance? Wouldn’t that leave you more vulnerable?

Linux@programming.dev•Linux 7.2 finally cuts off ancient x86 fallback code
2·2 days agoBut why does it need updates if it works? Just don’t connect it to the Internet and you can run it until either it dies or you die.

Linux@programming.dev•Linux 7.2 finally cuts off ancient x86 fallback code
1·2 days agoIf it’s from 20 years ago then isn’t that like 15 years too new to be affected by this patch?

Linux@programming.dev•Linux 7.2 finally cuts off ancient x86 fallback code
6·2 days agoIsn’t that just Rocky configuring the kernel that way? You’re free to compile your own kernel and it’ll still support even old pentiums, just not i486 in new versions
Liberal in modern western political discourse has little to do with capitalism anymore and more about your stance on social issues like LGBT rights, racial equality or healthcare. Half of lemmy pretends not to understand it for some reason but it’s been like that for a few decades.
It’s the result of conservatives using “libtard” and “communist” interchangeably for everyone to the left of Reagan while by the old definition they’re actually liberals.
Languages evolve. Prescriptivism is useless.

10·2 days agoThat’s how these big companies work, they have multiple studios working on multiple games. You still expect the subsidiaries to mostly mirror the top end.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Why Estonians invite strangers into their back gardens each summer
8·4 days agoOh neat, I didn’t know this wasn’t a global thing.
It’s not as universal as the headline makes it out to be of course, maybe around 0.5% of people host home cafes in smaller towns, it’ll be less in the the big cities.

World News@lemmy.world•China, Russia, North Korea: the authoritarian axis looms over wars in Ukraine and IranEnglish
1·4 days agoHow exactly is Russia, China or Europe going to negotiate a peace deal with Iran when none of those are at war with Iran? And what incentive does Russia have for peace in Iran when the fuel crisis has been the best thing to happen to their economy in ages? Matter of fact, why would Russia and Europe EVER work together on something given that Russia has made it clear they seek lebensraum in Europe?
Europe and China would benefit from peace in Iran but neither holds control over Trump.

191·4 days agoOther AI companies can still buy them, they’re just rare because nobody bought them in the first place. They destroy them because scanning them is faster and in some jurisdictions that absolves you from copyright infringement since the amount of copies doesn’t go up

Technology@lemmy.world•Torvalds: AI Is the New Compiler, Not the New ProgrammerEnglish
1·4 days agoCan’t say I’ve had your experience, Windows always had issues. Think 7 was the least problematic version for me and the last one I remember fondly.
I have a car diagnostics laptop running 8.1 because it doesn’t support legacy boot for 7 and is too weak for 10. That UX was horrendous. Then came 10 which was unusable without an SSD. That sounds like the norm now but back then a lot of people didn’t have them. I’m not even going to mention 11, it came out before the AI craze and has sucked since release.
But the really crazy side of Microsoft is the ERPs. Way too much always changing. Good old systems being retired because they have a worse new one to replace it with, etc.

Offbeat@lemmy.ca•Coin-Operated Elevators in Condominiums and Apartment Buildings Are Becoming More Common
31·4 days agoOkay and what if the apartment owners all voted on it at the board meeting?
Outside of the US it’s very common for apartment buildings to have shared ownership. In my country there are basically none where the building is owned by an entity.
That’s dozens of people you need to get to agree on how to fund lift maintenance and you bet the first and second floor folks would rather it be usage based.
Not saying I’m a fan of this but the ol’ murican “landlord should take care of the building” falls apart when you have a two or three digit number of people with a stake and say in what happens.

Offbeat@lemmy.ca•Coin-Operated Elevators in Condominiums and Apartment Buildings Are Becoming More Common
22·4 days agoA lot of people actually own the apartments they live in, there’s no one landlord who owns the building. The apartment owners together do. If that’s how they vote to do it, who’s to say that’s wrong?
In a big enough commie block you might have over 100 “landlords” and it might be difficult to get them all to agree on increasing the maintenence fee.

Technology@lemmy.world•First test flight of largest all-electric aircraft used just $5 of electricityEnglish
2·5 days agoThere are also flights where this could be used as fully electric right now, or very soon if they increase range a bit. If you fly from Tallinn to anywhere via Finnair, you go through Helsinki, that’s like a 30 minute flight. And the reason you don’t just drive to Helsinki is that you’d have to take the ferry which costs more money, takes over an hour and the Helsinki airport isn’t that close to the port.
Similarly, you can fly from Tallinn to the two bigger islands here in Estonia, very short flights versus like a 3 or 4 hour bus ride involving a ferry. 30 and 40 minute flights with the current 30-40 person planes that company uses.




How does that change Russia being an imperialist country filled with neonazis of its own?
