Students’ Leaf Blower Suppressor To Hit Retail
  • I don't know mate, I wouldn't replace my electric tools–drills, grinders, saw... with gas ones. But these outdoors tools are a different kind of beast. I've only used an electric chainsaw and it was an absolute crap, maybe there are better ones but it was crappier than the smallest and shittiest gas chainsaws I've used, and a cord around you in that setting isn't great either.

    U.S. Air Force member who set himself on fire outside Israeli Embassy in D.C. has died
  • I would very much prefer something clicks in their heads so they can see how horrible their acts are, then find an honest way of living and maybe even try and amend some of the harm they've done to humanity and the world.

    Oh! And you can also add cops, that would be the population of Illinois, for a total of ~42.5 mill or the equivalent of the population of California and Utah combined.

  • Now if the other 30 mil military personnel all over the world follow this man's example civilians in Palestine and everywhere could, at last, live in peace

    Ok.
  • I would guess it's the warmest at first and then it gets cooler overtime.

    George Carlin AI comedy special is 'ghoulish' and 'creepy,' his daughter says
  • Why is this or should be a crime? You wouldn't call an Elvis impersonator a criminal, why is it different when it comes from a piece of technology?
    I get why his daughter finds it creepy, but I just listened to it and I liked it, they don't seem to be trying to fool anyone and make very clear it's an ai impersonation. I see it more like a kind of homage or something, it's not like they're putting his face on an ad. I don't think you should need permission from the dead person's family for this kind of things.

  • We need but not for this, I would prefer restricting governments and corporations from using it to spy on people.

  • But it's the governments the ones using AI for the most evil things. Impersonating a dead comedian is a pretty benign use in my opinion.

    ‘I’m afraid every day for my children’: As antisemitism soars, French Jews flee to Israel
  • I agree this is propaganda but it can also be true, in fact there are many other sources telling more or less the same worldwide.

    A lot of propaganda is true, just half the truth, telling the good things of this side and bad things of the other. I would say there's no news just propaganda, everyone putting out a piece of information (be it state or private owned media, independent sources, a blog, a post or a stream on social media...) does it with the intention of getting people to think a certain way.

  • Not an ancap at all. I would argue the judicial system, police, and military are already in the hands of the wealthy, so aren't they kinda private?

    The Website vs. Web App Dichotomy Doesn't Exist | jakelazaroff.com
  • I'm using the Kbin pwa on an iPhone and it works much better than I expected it to, I don't know they must have better support now. I think the functionality should be more than enough for many companies and much cheaper than a custom native app

    The Website vs. Web App Dichotomy Doesn't Exist | jakelazaroff.com
  • I'm right now browsing the fediverse and writing this from the Kbin pwa. It seems to work quite well, with some quirks that I guess could be polished, but overall better experience than most installed apps that should be a website instead

    My English Breakfast tea states it contains 2g of protein.
  • I was curious so I looked it up but everything I could find said 0% protein for Tazo English breakfast, so I went to my box of tea, another brand English breakfast, and alongside the table with the information for just the tea infusion (calories are specified as less than 4kcal, <4kcal) is another table for a serving with 30ml semi-skimmed milk with 1.2g protein. Could you post maybe a picture of the labeling?

    Is it actually dangerous to run Firefox as root?
  • I just wanted to add that you can run gui applications through ssh with x11 forwarding, options -X or -Y (untrusted/trusted but at least in Debian back in the day they behaved the same). So if you wanted a gui file manager you run it in the ssh session on the remote server, sudo if you need but NEVER logged as root, and the window will pop on your local DE instead of having to run an entire desktop on each server

    New Japanese law may force Apple to allow sideloading in iOS
  • That's very cool, or maybe not it seems it could only allow other stores to install software and not 'whatever you want', but are they going to apply this rule to Nintendo or Sony, whose consoles aren't a very different case to apple iOS devices, as well? No mention in the article

  • Many of us don't celebrate Jeez's birthday, we just get together, eat, drink, sing... if we couldn't enjoy the little things in life because some horrible war is going on in some part of the globe thousands of miles away there wouldn't be any merriment EVER.
    I'm also a bit confused by your choice of words, who are you talking about when you say 'his people'? His homeland (Judea, under Roman occupation at the time, and arguably occupied by others ever since), is occupied by whom right now?

    Why do you use the terminal?
  • For me the difference between a cli and a gui is like asking someone to do something speaking in a language they can understand and doing it just by pointing at things and doing gestures. It's enough for ordering at a restaurant, but for more complex tasks it gets ridiculous, even at a restaurant you'll get better results if you can ask for some information and understand what the server says
