When I went to Thailand, Grab was EVERYWHERE.

Hopefully, SolarPunk can distance themselves from their users’ shameful support of genocide and the military industrial complex this past election season. I was disappointed to see solarpunk users fighting the same bullshit Red vs. Blue culture war that lemmy.world mods and admins were fighting, trying to forcefeed Kamala apologia down our throats and censoring, flaming, and reporting anyone with enough integrity to call it out.

I’ve now lived through 3 straight presidential elections where the most corrupt Democrat I know of was utterly rammed down our throats under the threat of “at least they aren’t Trump!”

Stop scoring own goals on your people and HEAR THEM OUT during the primary when they say that the Dem candidate picked through election fraud cannot win.

Educate yourselves and be actual environmentalists: stop being the greenwashing wing of the Progressive Policy Institute.

Wow. Super interesting. I hadn’t realized how much the code had evolved to use high level libraries for the Pi Pico.

Very cool! I can think of so many applications for this.

😂 Someone doesn’t understand what followers are. Have a great day. Blocking you now.

Maybe you’re just in a bad mood because I really didn’t make a big thing about it. Just thought it was odd that you’d lie about it. You’d have to have either lied (or misremembered if your panties are still bunched up) because this has been company policy since the first Apple Store opened in like 2001.

I’ve been going to Apple stores since they opened. In fact, in a brand new Apple Store back in like 2007, I wanted to demo the software “Shake” for my company. I distinctly remember an employee installing it for me (since they wouldn’t be stupid enough to leave admin access open).

It has been this way since the first Apple Store opened…

I’m confused about why you felt the need to make it up. Such a weird lie.

I wish him bad health:

I’ve never seen them password protected in any way, you have admin access.

This is 100% untrue.

You know they’re in for a decline when they’re naming products like Boeing.

I’m genuinely curious why you’d want to do that. Mine is timed to coincide with the circadian rhythms of the GPS coordinates and those are provided as hard-coded values in my config. I suppose the only optimization I could imagine is a script where it would get my IP then correspond that with GPS coordinates so I could have circadian screen coloring wherever I go with my laptop.

My point is, it’s a setting that I don’t turn off because that would defeat the purpose of the app.

An ad. I’ve seen them on reddit and I think I speak for everyone here when I say I don’t want them here.

This is a fucking advertisement.

That and the fact that working in software engineering has become less lucrative, all of these hackers are going to go to the dark side to get the kind of cash they were previously used to.

yes it is…

I’m actually a programmer. There are ways to compensate us that doesn’t force people to pay rent for our work.

Vote with your wallet. Boycott rent seeking companies that lock away their IP and charge money for access to it.

For example, FOR ADOBE TO DESERVE MY MONEY EVERY MONTH, 100% OF THEIR TECHNOLOGIES SHOULD BE OPEN SOURCE.

The only rent I happily pay for is a good VPN.

It is. The machine learning algorithm has maxed out its parameters because Elon decided to get rid of redundancy. The machine learning algorithm had to invent new algorithms to do what redundancy would have easily done in far fewer lines of code. They are out of compute power BECAUSE they decided to cheap out and removed redundancy.

I do this on NixOS. I have a NAS at home where I store most of the files I work on. My computers are internally immutable and almost all the files that change reside solely on the NAS as NFS shares. All of my computers are configured to auto-mount one of its folders at boot. NixOS sees that as an internal drive.
Then, simply navigate to the project folder where I have a flake and a .envrc file containing the command use flake .which will make direnv use Nix to provision the dependencies automatically. Whenever I save, those changes are reflected on all computers.

I like to also version control everything using git and this method allows that transparently.

The only part that I am missing is getting the permissions to align between all computers accessing that same folder. Sometimes I have to create a temp folder that uses rsync to keep up with any changes. If anyone has any pointers, I’m all ears. It rarely gets in my way but does rear its head sometimes. Otherwise, this setup is perfect when I’m at home.
