Uh funny timing but my desktop has been getting worse and worse recently until it just became unusable. Just opened it up to find that the liquid cooling for the CPU was leaking… I might have been neglecting my PC for a while. hopefully performance will be better once I get this fixed (and cleaned out)

Yeah I should probably add that it’s the 12-Core M2 Pro. I’m pretty close to the top of the line for MacBooks right now but I am still very impressed that it delivers. Not to mention how quiet the fans are; if they run at all.

Absolutely insane that it’s running better on my M2 MacBook than my 3070 desktop

Alright, thanks for the clarification! Honestly, I think both terms are misused all the time and I have just stopped caring about it.

Nah, ‘open beta’ was the term for a long time; early access is a newer thing.

Don’t forget about payment processors like visa that can enforce restrictions on NSFW content

I just learned about kagi. It’s subscription-based but seems really nice

You’ve gone back too far! I meant mid to late aughts (2005-2010)

It’s because a lot of people here are people who miss the earlier days of the internet and are trying to recreate that feeling. I’m not that old but it’s got me feeling nostalgic so I enjoy it

You’re giving the perfect example of the centrist mindset. I’ve followed American bills and laws being passed in the past four years and there is an objectively correct opinion on which side is better for the wellbeing of the people.

Republicans are constantly trying to repeal laws of bodily autonomy and workers rights. They are pushing for ways to gerrymander and make voting more difficult in Democrat areas. They have to rely on riling up their base with lies and fear-mongering because it’s all they have.

The democrats are more of a mixed bag but they are at least doing some things that actually help and improve the lives of the average person instead of actively doing the opposite.

But that doesn’t fit within the centrist framework because they are just too smart

To be clear, I’m not American either. I just think that centrism reads as a lack of any principles. Especially when one side is blatantly anti-democracy.

More parties would obviously be better but that’s a difficult task to surmount.

Every American ‘centrist’ I’ve seen plays constant defence for the far right. Idk maybe it’s just a coincidence but I’m not the only one who’s noticed it

wrong. vuash created nato after genociding a village of children and trying to come up with a more efficient method

it’s what the banner says in the image you posted

lmao fuck tankies

Insanely relatable. I, too, have been burnt out from full stack dev and addicted to baldurs gate.

I agree with you but I’m just gonna say with basic regex (hell, even without regex) you can easily find bad words without the problem you mentioned above.

Word filters tend to suck in online games and stuff because they have to navigate players trying to avoid the filter, which I think could still be improved with a little effort

You’re 100% right. The people who are already on these platforms are the ones that don’t like any algorithm at all, so they tend to be combative about its implementation. I don’t think there will be mainstream appeal until it is easy and fun to use for the average person

That’s not really how most recommendation algorithms work. A good basic algorithm would be showing you content that the people you follow are following or showing popular posts from a certain category that you tend to like

You are talking about different things. Using the native OS you can have infinite windows at any size, but if you are duplicating your desktop view from your Mac then you are limited to a fixed-density single screen
