The thing is, in some fields like devops, there are so many tools that you can’t remember or know all of them very well. So asking chatgpt how to do something saves very much time. It can write ansible playbooks, docker files, web server configurations etc etc. They almost never work perfectly but they give a very good starting point to modify.

It used to be that you could be very good at specific languages or tools but today, there isn’t enough time. Everyone is always in a hurry to get something out as quickly as possible too.

Often the code is self explanitory. I understand the code very often, but I still couldn’t write it correctly from scratch. You never feel like that?

This is how code examples in books works too. You get some code to look at and try to understand it. Otherwise it’s like you would ignore code examples while learning programming.

I always smile when I see Spyware like Windows called “user friendly”. Depends on what you mean by that I guess. Is it user friendly to target your users with ads and tracking? Guess so.

How to deal with Ancient aliens in the workplace?

Two of my coworkers frequently mention shows like “Encounters” or “Ancient apocalypse” or whatever. I’m not the best at debating or forming arguments against these though I do feel strongly that bold claims require better evidence than a blurry photo and an eyewitness account. How do you all go about this?...

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Why do you feel the need to “deal with it”?

You can express your opinion without pushing it on others or trying to convince them. Is this a mystery to the social media generation?

I had severe performance issues and crashes until I changed my driver to vulkan-radeon on Amd, so I just wanted to post that. If you have issues on amd, check your driver.

My card is Radeon 6900 XT.

It’s fun when done right. Humor is a thing. And we can joke about these things. At least I can, you can do what you want. :)

If you think about it, humor is much needed in the world today. It’s healthy and good for you to joke and laugh about these things, unless you are pointing at a specific person. You have to know the difference between bullying and humor.

Why is it weird that aliens built the pyramids?

How Ubuntu Linux snuck into high-end Dell laptops (and why it's called 'Project Sputnik') (www.zdnet.com)

Today, the Dell XPS-13 with Ubuntu Linux is easily the most well-known Linux laptop. Many users, especially developers – including Linus Torvalds – love it. As Torvalds recently said, “Normally, I wouldn’t name names, but I’m making an exception for the XPS 13 just because I liked it so much that I also ended up buying...

I’m very surprised as well, was looking forward to this game but now I will naturally wait and see what gamers say. It’s also going to have performance issues, so I expect we end up with reviews being Mixed fairly quickly…

Users who care about privacy and not being exploited and targeted with shitty ads are already here.

The majority are Ben Dovers and don’t mind getting fucked.

Twitter's lost 13% of its daily users and its rebrand has failed (www.bigtechnology.com)

The new data — comprehensive and definitive — should put to rest the countervailing narratives over Musk’s management of the app. Under his stewardship, X’s daily user base has declined from an estimated 140 million users to 121 million, with a widening gap between people who check the app daily vs. monthly. X’s...

They call it rebrand but changing a name to something really bad is a rebrand now? Isn’t it supposed to come with different behavior or different style as well?

It’s the same man child running it as before, nothing has changed.

What is reddit? That shit site with psycho owners who want to go public because they are convinced they are successful, despite not being able to make any money and alienating their moderators and userbase? Lols.

I don’t know anything about this, but is it theme dependent or will always work?

Yeah I guess the guy felt it was clever for his blog or something.

It would have been better with something more interesting, like maybe 418 - “I’m a teapot” : developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/…/418

People underestimate the need for something like this. Society is only going to become more and more censored and monitored as technology evolves. It’s not possible to escape that, so using communication where you are private is going to be extreamly important.

Also it needs to be able to resist being banned by governments.

Normies will not even come to mastadon so no need to dumb down the experience to grandma level. They will use Facebook or X just like they will use windows and edge. They use computers as if they were TVs, never changing any defaults even.

Frostpunk was absolutely brilliant, I loved every second of it.

Who here uses a less popular Linux distribution? What made you choose it?

Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I’m curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Yeah you can, a friend of mine was doing that. But he got nervous since Google is going after those also.

Kde has Activities where you can group apps in a similar way.

Yeah really looking forward to some innovation!

Gnome right now feels like they are polishing a door knob forever, getting all the icons and the views exactly right and clean. But not much innovation.

It’s not perfect though, but I kind of like it myself. It feels like it could be even better, and it’s a start of a great idea, and just needs some more love. :)

It’s just an opinion, and social media is about sharing those, no?

It’s gonna come back in some shape. Imagine being able to make users live inside your little world, and you can manipulate their emotions and track them around the clock. Wet dream.

Good satire but it’s a bit hard to laugh for me, because it just reminds me how shitty people are leading the societies here on dumb Earth.

It’s equal to “the internet” for people who don’t work in IT. Super sad actually.

There are entire counties where Facebook is “the internet”.
