he seems to have changed his tune on that. And people did make it known to him.

Changing his tune is a very different thing from changing opinions. It clearly was just a reaction to public pressure, not inner reflection.

I disagree on his stance regarding blu-ray discs. A movie is not software.

Java technology is a critical part of the new high-definition video standard, the Blu-ray Disc standard. This is a great time to be Java developer.

Yeah, sometimes I go so far to buy a game on Steam that got given away for free by Epic. EGS has the tendency to log me out all the time (maybe too many login across a bunch of devices) which annoys the heck out of me.

Also, the same is true for China

It's not even a uniquely Asian thing. Sun tanned skin meant that the people had to work in the field while light skin meant higher status. If anything, tanning as a beauty trend is the relatively recent development.

It’s (almost) always Nvidia.

A philosopher once said:

“we want to be the Apple of the Linux World”

Funny that they constantly fail at that ambition, though.

They cracked down on extremism since then, but it’s conceivable there’s a few left.

Also the most extreme ones are the ones that died first and after broad mobilization the relative proportion shrank naturally. That's just maths.

And even if these two were not the case, Ukraine has a simple explanation:

When asked about one of the two Russian groups fighting on Ukraine's side, one being extreme racists who want to make Russia smaller to get rid of regions with non-Russian ethnicities, a government official, maybe even Zelensky personally, said to the press that Ukraine does not have the luxury to pick who fights on their side when the alternative is rape and genocide.

Really rooting for piefed honestly.

Problem is that's it's not just a question of political leaning, it's also one of software architecture. Lemmy is written in Rust, Piefed in Python.

I have doubts about the scalability of Python software to user numbers like Lemmy World has.

A good quality DAC connected to your USB port will give you far better sound than having a headphone jack.

Nobody's advocating for taking the USB-C port away.

Almost always I find torrenting the most convenient method to download anything. When someone puts some file up for download and that person uses one of those stupid free file hosters, I usually get annoyed by "disable ad blocker", slow dl speeds, etc.

A torrent makes things so much more convenient.

Games? Nigh impossible.

Decades ago DOS games had custom intro animations but that's not really relevant for current games.
