Looking at this awakened the memories of back pain from lugging all those fucking textbooks around when I was in school. God, why were they not split into a dozen parts like this? Do kids still carry them these days?

9·2 days agoAren’t you just describing a modlog? The only annoying feature is that mod name is obscured so you have to jump a couple hoops to find who did what and whether they still are mods.
This is legalese. The
“with intent to render such bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt unfit to be reissued”
probably relates only to the
“or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt”
part, and not the whole
“Whoever mutilates, cuts, defaces, disfigures, or perforates, or unites or cements together”

They are usually too cheap to even have a wireless connection. Most the ones I saw rely on microsd cards

3·15 days agoThere’s notepadqq which appears to be a clone of notepad++, but it’s not maintained anymore.
I have no problem with people recording me. Frankly, we should be doing more Sousveillance, as governments and corporate footage has a terrible track record of mysteriously disappearing whenever it’s convenient to them. But that’s not it. This is yet another corporation using peoples faces as camera mounting points. Fuck them. If you need a spycam for some reason, be a normal
creephuman being, and buy them off aliexpress or something

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft wants devs to build Electron AI apps on Windows 11, says no need of native code, despite RAM concernsEnglish
1·15 days agoStares nervously at waybar’s memory usage
It’s nowhere near the electron level, but we have bloat here as well. 62 megs to show a plain line of text, 5mb to append text to a file, 20mb to query dns, another 20 to reconnect to wifi, etc, and it adds up. I used to host sites on 32mb ram, play 3d games on 64mb ram, now even fitting just a bare terminal system on 128mb cloud slice is problematic.

Games@lemmy.world•Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your gameEnglish
5·15 days agoDo you guys turn your graphics settings to lowest
Pretty much, yeah, lows whenever possible and mediums whenever lows are way too low (i.e. shadows, where low usually means pre-baked only, while medium does dynamic, yet blurry, shadows), and all post-processing disabled. Highs and ultras never provide any tangible difference during gameplay and their use is seemingly mostly limited to benchmarks.
and most modern anti-aliasing too
TAA can eat a dick. I’d take staircases over ghost edges and flickering shadows any day every day.

Technology@lemmy.world•MidnightBSD Bans Users in Brazil and California, Warns More Regions Could FollowEnglish
61·21 days agoCalifornia L. Outsourcing child care to random people who are not even US citizens. Thats like forcing knife manufacturers to make the knives child-safe.
On a sidenote, while looking up the history of actual legal cases involving children in California, I stumbled upon a story of Joseph Hall, son of abusive, alcoholic, insignia wearing, salute throwing, nazi activist piece of shit Jeffrey Hall, whom, at age 10, he shot in his sleep after being given a gun by him, and for which he was put into juvenile detention centers for 12 years until he turned 23, instead of… idk… being declared a national hero and given a compensation for the society failing upon him.
Positive diff? Pfft, amateurs. If I ever see even a 1000 line PR I’m instantly rejecting and closing it. Learn to code, not generate bullshit.
Ah, the typical nazi idea of correlating random body measurements with complex behavioral and emotional patterns.

Recently I picked up a new entertainment of checking reviews of audio equipment stores on local amazon
One of the reviews was from a woman who ordered a microphone, an XLR to 3.5mm cable, an apple type c headphone dongle, plugged all that into a car charger and complained that it did not turn her car into karaoke.
Another from a guy with a couple of active speakers who bought an insert cable, so he had to put one of the speakers sideways on top of another to make it reach both ports. Rated 5 stars.
Another picked old soviet DIN5 to 3.5mm cable, jammed it into MIDI OUT port on his digital piano and the other end into line in on his pc soundcard…
To be fair, there are active buy offers for that one for ~$5k. The $155 figure is a collection offer, meaning someone is ready to buy anything in that collection, no matter how shitty it is. And, at practically zero liquidity (only one of those ever sot sold after minting), the concept of value becomes meaningless, he could accept the offer and take back $5k, he could list it at something like $20k and it’d likely quickly sell, or he could bullshit one of his rich friends to buy it from him for a million… or he could print that out and jerk it off to it, the therapeutic effect of which might be worth millions for his entertainment business, who knows.

Since when did GTAO stopped working on linux tho? Did it introduce an anticheat as well?
