Kids will happily brainrot away for hours and hours. Adults have the capacity to get themselved to stop. But kids will watch Spiderman and Elsa shit on YouTube all day if they can

Of course you need to limit it some, then again I wouldn’t give an ipad to a 5 year old

Evotech ,

They probably don’t have ipads

We mainly use ipv4, but recent laws that all public sector websites are to use IPv6, we have had to update our stack.

Now we can do IPv6 public endpoints with ipv4 backends.

Rockstar Games DDoSed Heavily By Players Protesting New AntiCheat Code (cyberinsider.com)

Rockstar Games’ servers have been under heavy fire from massive DDoS attacks in recent days, causing widespread login and connectivity issues for players of GTA Online. These attacks come in the wake of Rockstar’s recent implementation of BattlEye, a new anti-cheat system designed to crack down on in-game cheating, sparking...

Evotech ,

Sounds like it’s working

Evotech ,

The potential?

People are hacking the shit out of any online game without proper anticheats

Evotech ,

If I’m paying for premium, I just don’t want ads! But they keep trying to shove it down my throat regardless

Evotech ,

AB testing, you probably haven’t been affected yet

Evotech ,

Irrelevant

Evotech ,

How did that work (or not) exactly? What was the goal

Evotech ,

Honestly I think it’s good. The amount of context switching and with breaks, working on several things at once. To normalize that down to a working day seems reasonable

Evotech ,

In Norway, NRK started a misinformation campaign in a local school to influence the school election to show how easy it was.

It was not well received

Basically, an unfinished game has infinite possibilities.

OpenAI releases o1, its first model with ‘reasoning’ abilities (www.theverge.com)

For OpenAI, o1 represents a step toward its broader goal of human-like artificial intelligence. More practically, it does a better job at writing code and solving multistep problems than previous models. But it’s also more expensive and slower to use than GPT-4o. OpenAI is calling this release of o1 a “preview” to...

It’s like 3 lms on top of eachother in a trenchcoat, and appau a calculator so it gets math right

I bought premium just because it was annoying that my wife viewed ads while doing her makeup in the morning…

if you ever traveled 1K miles by bus, would you recommend it?

I can either book a direct 3 hour flight or take a 36 hour bus trip across 1K miles changing buses 2 times in 2 different non English speaking countries but in big cities, so I assume young people and public facing employees at the bus exchanges to speak some of it…...

Evotech ,

2 hours by bus is already pushing it. I couldn’t image 36

What Ticketmaster Doesn't Want You To Know: Concerts Were Cheap For Decades (youtu.be)

Ticketmaster and Live Nation have destroyed the concert experience. But it didn’t use to be this way. Today, Oasis and Taylor Swift tickets might go for thousands of dollars, but back in 1955, you could see Elvis Presley in concert for less than the modern-day equivalent of $20.

Evotech ,

Capitalism is doing capitalism things, weird

Evotech ,

Yeah, poor Taylor swift :'(

I don’t think it’s the normal artist we are taking about here. We are talking about concerts going for a thousand bucks.

Fortnite started as a sanbox “everything” game

Wasn’t until they added Battle Royale that it became big, but it was always intended to be a playground / creative shooter

DuckDuckGo starting to give more "personal" search results

Been slowly running into more results from DDG that seem to have some “personal parameter” or difference in search results. I had a search saved from some months ago, went to check it for some references and got new hits involving local organizations that had nothing to do with the search. Opening up a private browser I see...

The location is very rough, not even the same town. Usually it things I’m in a while different country in Europe

Day 45 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (lemmy.world)

The game is Final Fantasy XIV. I had a friend wanting me to give it a try, and he bought the standard edition. So my hand was kind of forced. Here’s a screenshot i took of the city i started in, Limsa Lominsa, after it started raining. You can see the tail of my Carbuncle there peaking over the top.

Evotech ,

Only mmo I have ever played with music on constantly

Evotech ,

I’ll add this to the “normal in America, totally illegal in the rest of the western world” list

Evotech ,

I mean it’s probably the codebase most targeted, so it makes sense

Evotech ,

Vertical videos are a thing because phones are vertical screens

Evotech ,

It’s hardly good. I mean I can tell it’s supposed to be him, but it looks nothing like him

Evotech ,

The commercial online ones tend to be, but you can easily find a trump/Kamala Lora online and generated it locally

Evotech ,

Arguable

Evotech ,

Niche software like the Microsoft suite? It all depends on the environment you use it in I think

Evotech ,

Aha that’s why telegram is banned and blocked in Russia

How can I get a screw like this out? (sh.itjust.works)

I decided on cleaning my laptop fans today, which I’ve been procrastinating for about a year now because of this one screw. But I just can’t seem to open this with my screwdriver, since whatever I did back when I last opened it it’s nearly circular now. Is there a way to unscrew this?

Evotech ,

Get really hyped and stuff. Show them stuff. Play with them

Evotech ,

There are many astronauts in the ground in nasa too, and people who actually design and build spaceships

Evotech ,

A home here burned down. Stay safe kids.

Do you value high fidelity (audio, visual, or other)? Do you notice a difference?

It often surprises me to see people with time, money, and knowledge settling for subpar experiences that have night and day differences to me. Even at my brokest (pretty darn broke), speakers, headphones, and glasses were always worth researching and some saving up, and the difference between what I’d end up with and the...

Evotech ,

I mean, to a point.

In the end it’s all a matter of priority. Do I want a sound system for 10k+? Sure. But that money would probably be better spent elsewhere

For me, I wanted a 65inch OLED tv and splurged a bit on that, but on discount. And I got a surround sound Sonos setup. That’s good enough

Evotech ,

Same for databases, master / slave does not really describe the relationship anymore. It’s a primary, secondary, control node, read only or something else.

Evotech ,

Just take up iron man and body building so you won’t have to look at your wife much

Evotech ,

Homo no mo kinda fire title

Evotech ,

If it was a movie she would be the protagonist at least
