I was in China in 2011, at the height of their "Golden Age". It really is an amazing place culturally. And the natural parts that are maintained are beautiful.

But I don't think I'll ever go back, the political climate is way too sketchy and I don't see it getting better any time soon.

Microsoft 365 Copilot App

That's the official name

Wait, what happened? And which game?

[-] CeeBee_Eh@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago

No idea how I should be pronouncing it though.... K-den-live? Kde-n-live?

Yes, that's how it's pronounced

Would a VM not work? Seems like the perfect use case for a VM.

I am not looking for software alternatives.

Then just use Windows or a Mac.

You know, I was fine with LTT for a while (many years ago). I knew they were clowns, but they seemed genuine and well intentioned. Their first Linux challenge made me raise my eyebrows at them, because I was a long time Linux user and knew much of what they said was either off the mark or disingenuous.

Then their storage server video came out and I almost fell off my chair with the levels of bafoonery I had watched. Even the real experts that helped them out had a hard time keeping their words civil while discussing the postmortem of the situation. That's when I lost respect for LTT and Linus Sebastian as a tech "expert".

Then all the other stuff about the lies, the made up metrics, the years of garbage test data from negligent and lazy practices, and the cherry on top which was the Billet Labs thing. The arrogance of Linus Sebastian to do the test in bad faith on a GPU that was explicitly stated by Billet Labs to not be the target device, and then Linus whine on the WAAAH Show that it would cost him too much money to do a proper retest, and then just selling off the prototype. Then doubling down twice in a forum post that LINUS SEBASTIAN is somehow the victim in all of this! Poor Poor Linus Sebastian.

And the moron couldn't even do an apology video without making some wise-ass joke. Couldn't read the room the one time he needed to do it.

He's just an ass-hat.

I refuse to watch a video with Linus Sebastian. I'll get better tech advice from my cat tripping on catnip.

What I do is just take out the card a plug it into a little USB dongle thing which I can plug into either my phone or laptop.

What's wild to me is that anyone would do it any other way. I'm astounded that this is somehow a "tip".

Not even 10 years ago it was simply the way to do it.

Thank goodness they cleared out all that snow and ice so that we can finally see the pretty mountains.

What the user was doing is that they don't trust that the system truly deleted the account, and they worry it was just deactivated (while claiming it was "deleted"). So they tried to do a password recovery which often reactivates a falsely "deleted" account.

I've done this before and had to message the company and have them confirm the account is entirely deleted.

JSON data within a database is perfectly fine and has completely justified use cases. JSON is just a way to structure data. If it's bespoke data or something that doesn't need to be structured in a table, a JSON string can keep all that organized.

We use it for intake questionnaire data. It's something that needs to be on file for record purposes, but it doesn't need to be queried aside from simply being loaded with the rest of the record.

Edit: and just to add, even MS SQL/Azure SQL has the ability to both query and even index within a JSON object. Of course Postgres' JSONB data type is far better suited for that.

Hi everyone, I'm hoping to get some input on my pepper plants. Last year all my vegetable plants were explosive in growth and produce. This year they've been a bit stressed by the early heat we've had (southern Ontario) but otherwise doing well. Everything from cucumbers, tomatoes, corn, potatoes, carrots, lettuce, garlic, and onions are doing well.

My pepper plants, on the other hand, look terrible.

Initially I thought they were just extremely stressed from the heat, but I noticed a few of them (not pictured) are doing fine. What clicked in my head today is that the ones that are doing ok I grew from seed, and the rest are from garden centres (a semi-private one and a commercial one).

From my zero-level knowledge and subsequent Googling the answer is:

  • Too much heat
  • Too much water
  • Too little water
  • Exposure to herbicide

It's the last one that really raised my eyebrows, and seems to fit based on photos.

Anyone have any insight on this? Thanks in advance.
