I actually just want them to make proton drive work on Linux. That’s all I need.
Just a guy shilling for gun ownership, tech privacy, and trans rights.

Gaming@beehaw.org•"Fewer people are playing Call of Duty this year than they have been before" Why has Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 seemingly sold below expectations? Is it simply not good enough? [Eurogamer]
2·1 day ago"Yeah we lost all credibility with our fans and people who still play our games are generally seen as uncultured sheep with gambling addictions. And the culture we do have is massively attractive to racists, creeps, and bigots. Were not taken seriously as an exports option.
But boy did we make a fucking KILLING selling Nikki Minaj skins"
You just write.
Write garbage.
Write a fan fiction
Read a shitt book and re-write the shitty plot.
Its a momentum thing for me. I’ll write absolute ass and then re-write it until its what I want.
I often ask an LLM to write the thing I want, get so fucking mad that they wrote AI Slop and then write good shit. That’s a good trick IMO.

All proper names are just old/dead/foreign language for the thing.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•Shout out to my engineering homies.English
27·3 days agoGods, I’m considering Job hopping and I saw Lockheed was hiring for my role, less experience, less certs, full remote, and quadruple my pay.
I had to block them on indeed and LinkedIn. I hated that I was considering it.

16·3 days agoOne of the guys I went to college with is an amazing programmer and had such a great understanding of C that hes why i got as far into CS as i did, couldn’t get a job after grad because 1) Covid and more importantly 2) he’s insufferable.
He got a job making $100k a year for I wanna say Lockheed because he quote “Wrote good looking code”. That’s all they needed because Tue DoD already told them that the project he was hired for was not going to be adopted, but they were still contracted for minimum 2 more years of development and Lockheed would be in breach of contract if they weren’t making progress even though it was already Dead.
The Military industrial complex is JUST a grift to put tax dollars in private hands.
TL:DR: I like reading books I disagree with both creatively and philosophically but force me to reevaluate my thought.

Technology@beehaw.org•Is the new Digg uncensored? does it support NSFW stuff?
3·5 days agoWell seeing as its invite only still. Probably not yet.
I doubt anything that tightly under the creators control is going to be “soiled” yet

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault?
16·6 days agoI don’t have pride in my government or its actions.
It was actively causing a lot of harm for most of its existence and is now turbo charging its ability to enshittify the world.
The LEAST I can do is make it clear we’re not all in support of this shit.
Love the country and people though. Lots of cool forests to roam and lots of people who don’t suck.
Nah you about got it.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Epic CEO [Tim Sweeney] says AI disclosures like Steam's make "no sense" because AI will be involved in "nearly all" future game developmentEnglish
42·9 days agoLLMs are actually just massively improved spell checks. If you’ve used an IDE with in line error detection, technically that’s AI now.
I do wish we’ve drawn the line more clearly on what “AI” usage means in terms of “this game was made with AI”

Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the best reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?
4·13 days agoOh man, Teams +Outlook + Office 365 + onedrive +Copilot?
So good for office shit. So bad for hood practices.
“Hey copilot I’m pretty sure I got an email asking if I had an SOP on X. Can you find that email and the SOP?”
“Copilot, using the recording of the teams meeting ‘Training from Vendor X’ and my notes on ‘Tool Y’ can you compile that into a FAQ sheet for us?”
Sure it misses stuff and is only so good because none of the data is private, but man that’s 90% of my work load for SOP making. Worth the $400 a year corporate pays for it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Americans of Lemmy, what are your thanksgiving family traditions?
4·15 days agoWe go to a buffet by the lake.
Its honestly really nice not having to Cook, but it does feel quintessentially american to make someone else do it.
This was such a good video.
There is no shitty YouTuber treatment of the octopus BTW.
Tap for spoiler
He does pump fake releasing it into the ocean, but ye doesnt

Kinda shocked I’ve never seen a “worlds richest gay man!” Headline. That feels like low hanging fru-







TL:DW;
Mr. Nexus still thinks its news that, under capitalism, production of luxury goods will always be sold to the highest bidder and not “the masses”
I didn’t watch it either. But its about Micron no longer selling consumer ram in favor of the AI industry customer.
