I recently visited a museum and i really loved it. Getting up close to an image and seeing none of the fuzziness, no AI “shimmer” on photos and every stroke made sense (as in you could see that an arm moved a brush and you could see the path it took etc.). Hands made sense. And while tryptichons were not exactly precise when it comes to the anatomy of humans, no humans had anything smeared etc.
It was the best of times, it was the BLURST OF TIMES! Stupid monkey!
Microsoft still makes money off the OEM licenses AFAIK. The Linux community had a whole day about this back in the 90s.

You know i think i understand companies sometimes but then i keep being baffeld at how evil a company can be.
Apple for example had me surprised with the reaction to the DMA and i previously thought that they couldn‘t possibly suck harder wirh alö their anti-repair stuff.
I still have a bone to pick with Tim Cook himself for rendering my well working Mac Mini 2012 unusable for my app development job by simply not updating Xcode and introducing a breaking change that prevented me from adding support for new iOS versions to old Xcode.
Don‘t you just hate it when
When capitalism
I wonder why ad tech can‘t be „Let‘s show ads that correspond to what‘s being talked about on that website.“ Kinda like what Google suggested with Topics but without following me through the internet.
Oh, would you look at the time! It’s the year of the fediverse!
SimCity 4 taught me: NO, JUST ONE MORE LANE WILL NOT SOLVE CRAPPY CITY PLANNING! And it teaches me the value of a good headphone or speaker setup every time i hear that certified banger of a soundtrack!
I guess that means trans people can shit wherever they want to in public.
You gotta get schwifty!
The EU forced Microsoft to offer a browser picker dialog. I’ve been wondering where that went and according to Wikipedia that judgement that compelled Microsoft to make the browser picker has expired. And thus… Microsoft dropped it immediately.
I think i remember that America stood for freedom. Or was i being Mandela’d again like back when people said Pyrocynical had a weird TF2 Pyro skin?
Paul: “How could you eat MY face?”
Carl: “It’s quite simple actually: I took a look at your face, found it tasty, tool a little bite and ate it.”
Paul: “That doesn’t answer my question!”
Carl: “I remember you specifically giving me permission to, and i quote, ‘eat all these faces’.”
Paul: “Yeah, i was hoping that you wouldn’t eat MY face! The face of your buddy, your best friend, your… soulmate.”
Carl: “You could have been a bit more specific then. Now your face is gone. I ate it. And it was quite delicious.”
Paul: “… Caaaaaarl.”
Carl: “Really delicious! Yum!”
On the other hand Rockstar won‘t have to deal with Steam reviews telling potential buyers to ask NASA for a spare computer.
Tipping in germany is a thing. The culture here is much less intense about it than the american tipping culture.
I thought X was gonna give it to me
I think the question was more about „Why do i have to register to be able to vote?“
Which is a good question. In germany we don‘t have to register to vote at any level. Once we‘re 18 and are registered citizens (the latter part is indeed a problem for immigrants due to bureaucracy), we get to vote.
We get a letter informing us where our local poll station is and then go there. A poll helper then crosses our names off a list once we‘re there and our ID is validated. Or we use the included ballot and send the letter back for mail-in voting. We can also have someone else vote for us if, say, the accessibility measures at the local poll station still don‘t suffice.
Germany isn‘t a perfect state but i personally think they make damn sure that you can vote. And it‘s really problematic that the ostensibly democratic US doesn‘t nearly put as much effort into enabling people to vote.
Boy, i sure hope someone got fired for that blunder
You could try to fix this from a very different angle by buying those strips for the nose against snoring. Those strips can temporarily unobstruct the air flow in the nose.
Charlie Brooker stopped making Black Mirror because of that user
