tvbusy , to technology in A supermarket trip may soon look different, thanks to electronic shelf labels

If the price I saw when I picked an item is different to what I pay at the counter, I’ll never be back at that place again, even if it means I’m paying less.

tvbusy , to technology in Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week

It depends I think. I found Chrome to be a tiny bit faster but then ads bogged the page down so most of the time, Firefox is faster for me.

In some very rare cases when I need to disable ads blocking, Chrome is indeed faster but I’d rather abandon websites rather than disable ads blocking.

So if you love ads, Chrome is better. If you hate ads like I do, Firefox is miles ahead.

tvbusy , to technology in Google Chrome’s plan to limit ad blocking extensions kicks off next week

I use Firefox everywhere which means I have ads blocking everywhere, including and especially on Android. All my tabs are synced and are easily transferred between devices.

tvbusy , (edited ) to programmerhumor in KB, MB, GB, and TB are all part of the metric system. What empirical measurements should we Free™️ Americans use for computer memory?

Thank you for your compliment. I love it. The floppy disk is 1.44 non-freedom MB, not 0.015264 miles of CD drives.

tvbusy , (edited ) to programmerhumor in KB, MB, GB, and TB are all part of the metric system. What empirical measurements should we Free™️ Americans use for computer memory?

I would suggest:

  • 1KB = storage capacity of 1 kg of 1.44 floppy disks.
  • 1MB = storage capacity of 0.0106 mile of CD drives.
  • 1GB = storage capacity of 1 good computer in the 2000s.
  • 1TB = storage capacity of 1 truck of GB (see above)

PS: just to be clear, I meant CD drives, not CD discs.

tvbusy , to pcgaming in Convai aims to put an end to basic 'one-line' NPCs with AI but says it 'needs more high quality writers and artists, not less' to get it done

Internet connection required at all times? No thanks

tvbusy , to technology in Reddit is licensing its content to Google to help train its AI models

Spez: we want to sell our users’ content to anyone with a good price.

Staff: but our users will rage and delete their content.

Spez: not if we remove the API.

tvbusy , to programmer_humor in Every language has its niche

RoR is too much magic for me. Getting started with any new code base is such a pain that I never want to do again. As a manager, I’ll avoid any job post that mentions Ruby. I have maintained projects written in Delphi, Centura, Java, C#, PHP and none of them even come close to the pain of RoR. Java and C# are notorious for ceremonial interfaces but that’s nothing compared to trying to figure out RoR automagics.

tvbusy , to lemmyshitpost in Piers Morgan gets owned

I regret looking up the clip: youtu.be/jNFOVkB6JjQ

Sorry to say to my UK friends, it looks like these people have no manners when it comes to debating. Asking a question and then proceeded to shout over them. I’m surprised they still have viewers.

tvbusy , to games in What's up with Epic Games?

Epic wanted exclusives by pulling games from other platforms. I will never spend a single cent on Epic Games. I’m happy to spend it on Steam, especially games that I have pirated before (Commandos series for example) or indie games (Banished anyone?).

For bigger games such as Civilians, I’ll purchase it on Steam and then pirate so I don’t need to run Steam. I am a big fan of patches to remove the intro screen.

tvbusy , to piracy in [Discussion] Have you ever pirated something because you forgot you own it?

I pirate because it’s more convenient. No launcher, no update, no DRM, no need to be always online. I still purchase games but still play the pirated version.

It is compulsory for all Israelis to do military service. In a way, some civilians in the concert are also soldiers. I have no idea how I would look at it but let’s not exclude the military service.
