Oh this dude makes good motorcycle videos.

Another unfun fact (dunno if it’s mentioned in the video) is that Teflon is a PFAS that is currently in our environment and ground water in harmful amounts, is definitely giving us cancer, and can’t be easily extracted or broken down :(

I hope we can go back to waxed coats and boots or something, soon.

edit:// the video does mention it. Cool video

I feel the same. It’s awesome that there’s a whole community and content. Lovely to see all the smaller communities too

The Arch Wiki spit in my mouth, pulled my pants up to my chest, and called me names.

Ha. Amateurs. I disappeared YEARS of my files by self-hosting.

Unquestionably Golang if those are the two options. It’ll give you a much better base to work with if you are still earlier in your career and is much more applicable to a lot of things.

Elixir is niche, the syntax doesn’t share a lot of patterns with other languages, and no one is hiring for it. Also few people know it.

I want to caveat my answer with that I personally really like elixir, and would prefer to work with it myself over golang for some types of problems. Actor patterns are really cool.

You are picking a really hard problem to start with - AI is a thing that people get incredibly advance degrees to know about. Frameworks have made things much easier to get started without all that learning, but I’d still recommend starting MUCH smaller.

Make a Python program that takes input and randomly gives output from a list. Then make a Flask WebApp that returns the same if you give it a web request.

I’d say after you can do both of those challenges - maybe then you’d be in a better place to start thinking about implementing something with an AI library. There’s layers and layers and layers of knowledge to build up.

the newer words make way more sense. They actually convey the concept

Any good forks yet? Open-source is great at solving problems when you can move on from assholes…

For the comments - this is currently referring to their cloud service, Microsoft Azure. But, yea same story as Microsoft ever was

System76 is plenty great. Not cheap, though. Thinkpads also have never let me down

I’m genuinely confused - I made my Lemmy account a few weeks ago but wasn’t the sign up just “email”, “password”, captcha, click email link, done? Isn’t that the exact sign up of reddit and most websites?

Sure - some instances have gated signups and require some questions / prompts - but a bunch don’t ? What am I missing? I’ve seen the “confusing sign up” comment a few times

whoops. I cleared out the <$10 bin…

Figured would be good Steamdeck:

• FFIX
• FFX
• Hotline Miami 2
• Devil Daggers
• Sprint Vector
• DOOM
• Wizard of Legend
• GRIS
• Loop Hero
• Spring Falls

VR Games:

• ACE COMBAT 7: SKIES UNKNOWN
• STAR WARS™: Squadrons
• A Fisherman’s Tale
• Thumper
• Assetto Corsa

Other:

• The Room Two
• The Room Three
• Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition

I sure hope so :[ The idea of a completely-not-consistent social media future feels… bad.

What’s the one-sentence pitch for brotato? I know it’s a roguelike? I think?

Prey was great!

I just got a Unihertz Atom XL - it’s great at 4". It does feel a bit like a phone from 2013, back when screen sizes were like that… but honestly holding my “old” phone in my hand (which was a moto g7) feels CRAZY. I can’t get my thumb across the whole screen and my hands aren’t small. With the phone protector I had on my last phone they were about the same thickness, too.

In general, when I was doing my research, it seemed like there was a couple niche manufacturers like Unihertz that make phones that are smaller than 6" - other than that, yea the Pixel was being mentioned on “Smallest phones in 2023” lists
