Agent Smth?

I use it all the time. It works fine.

“Processed”

A friendly reminder that GIMP and Da Vinci Resolve are things that exist.

He threatens to sue. He doesn’t have the money or bandwidth to actually sue.

Probably a seasonal thing between months. Music and books seem to be on the rise here.

I’ve lost track how many times I’ve had to share this link, at this specific timestamp

I basically did the exact opposite. I never press the upvote/downvote button, but I almost always leave a comment on the page whenever I have something interesting to say. I even reply to the replies I get. I have carried this behavior forward to Lemmy.

This is just natural. You want to comment on threads to conversate, even if you don’t really agree or disagree with the article. If you like/dislike the article enough, you’ll up/downvote it and comment on it.

That’s kind of a global problem, not really tied to the industry as a whole.

The difference is that a CS degree is actually useful. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people with a bachelors/masters in some random degree (like math or music) that end up getting a programming job.

Just show them this.

The programming industry is only growing. Tools like CoPilot and modern IDE might may it slightly easier, but there is no shortage of things that need development.

Music is so easy to make nowadays, and everybody wants to be a musician. It is an extreme oversaturated industry, and people keep falling into the same mistake of making it a career choice.

Same with acting, art, writing, and most creative positions.

You have to change the FPTP system first. It’s mathematically impossible to have a stable third-party system without changing the mechanics of how it works.

The way voters protest this sort of issue doesn’t follow logic or reason. People will happily not vote in protest, even if it means somebody far worse will win because of their actions. Cutting off their nose to spite their face.

I think the news needs to shame these kind of voters, instead of pushing this narrative that it’s Biden’s fault. Biden’s views are his own, and yeah, the news should try to highlight and change them. But, voter patterns of using “uncontested” or third-party candidates to sabotage the main electees is actively destroying Democrats’ chances of winning elections.

Just keep clicking. You’ll get to the malware eventually.

They will shown the people, and by extension, more moderate Republicans.

There is no such thing. The GOP has made sure of that for the past 15 years.

They are proud members of the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party. Getting thrown under the bus and being surprised about it (or not) is their MO.

That’s not true. The userbase has remained steady since July of last year. There are some up and down swings with posts, but some of it is seasonal, and some of it is just the normal up and down swings of a service. We’ll expect more users and posts as Spez continues to fuck up Reddit, and make it hostile to its users.

The use of proprietary, closed-source systems is purely for the financial benefit of the companies who make voting machines, never for security.

Not just the financial benefit. Security flaws can become open secrets that only one party abuses.

You can still get it.
