I…don’t remember posting this. Sorry dude, drunk me decided he didn’t like your question. I had a lovely night too this was just me being a dick on the train for no reason.
"In the waning days of the Cold War, Rainer Sonntag helped fuel a neo-Nazi movement that still plagues Germany today. He was also a Communist spy—and worked for Vladimir Putin."
tl;dr Books, most likely generated by an LLM, were being sold on Amazon under Jane Friedman's name. The same books were added to her Goodreads profile. Amazon initially refused to remove the books. If it's happening to her, it's definitely happening to other authors.
Conspiratorial but has a string of possibility. Note that Microsoft itself has a solution to workaround the TPM 2.0 needs on their forums, so Windows definitely is not going DRM kiosk mode on internet browsing this early.
Microsoft and Motherboard manufacturers: Putting DRM chips on the motherboard.
User: Why?
Microsoft: No reason.
User: Most businesses would switch to a cheaper toilet paper to save $5, why are you shipping chips and developing software and technology to use these chips.
Microsoft: Oh we’re not going to force anyone to do anything, we just want the ability to. Look at this workaround that we expect 0.015 of our billions of Windows users to use.
At least. With the strike(s) going on it could be even longer. Though I presume that the studios will try to pump out new content as quickly as possible once productions are possible again.
@MichiganPal I’ve just started the Red House by Roz Watkins. I’m only a few chapter in but am so far enjoying it, after a couple of false starts on books that failed to keep my interest. It is about a dark topic but hopefully will be suspenseful rather than grim.
It does have the below quote, which my greyhound-adjacent part-whippet would resent if she could bestir herself from her bed…
Now that both #Twitter and #Reddit have been short-sighted enough to burn through the goodwill of many users and communities, I wonder if it's time for distributions like @fedora and @centos - who were latecomers to the #Fediverse - to embrace #Lemmy ?
Let's see if I succeed in posting this to @linux as well - to see if Mastodon<->Lemmy interop works as well as it seems to do with another Lemmy community
I was thinking about getting a Steam Deck but I'm not entirely sure if it's better than my GTX 970. I'll have to do more research since there's no point in getting something that isn't an upgrade.
The official Valve dock has connectivity issues, but there are plenty of third party docks that are cheaper and work better.
Using the default system settings, I’ve never had any performance issues with it docked compared to handheld.
It’s important to note that unlike the Switch, docked mode does not improve performance. Trying to play a game at your TV’s native resolution most definitely will cause performance issues, but again, default system settings work perfectly.
I'm the reviewer you want today: I just submitted an "accept as-is" on this R&R two hours after receiving it. Somebody give me a cookie (or send this kind reviewer energy my way, please).
