@mjf_pro@hachyderm.io I hopped off to Linux a while back due to to the nonsense of Windows 11. I’ve lost nothing. I can do everything I did on Windows, the laptop runs faster , doesn’t freeze all the time.

I can also now, when I need to, “upgrade’ to used slightly older hardware that Linux will make run as well , or better than, a brand new machine running Windows.

@hk@mstdn.games @Sobtanian@mstdn.games another vote for Kobo from me. Was on a Kindle Oasis but moved to a Libra 2. Less of a premium feel to the shell but absolutely every other aspect is much better for me. It’s just a pleasure to read from

@malwaretech@infosec.exchange a place I worked at many moons ago had a someone visiting to pitch their service or whatever it was. As the guy left the boss crowded to the window desperate to see what car he had. He was going to judge him on the car - flashy car means a successful sales guy with a good product, mediocre car must mean he's crap.

"Or maybe he just doesn't care about cars much & spends his money on something else"

Boss: ".. .. .. maybe.."

If you stay longer than you should when camping you would be loitering within tent.

Think we’re going to hop to Apple Music anyway. It’s just so much less terrible to actually use. As a bonus it seems to have lots of DJ mixes specifically categorised, something I've been wanting from Spotify for a long while. I'm not sure I've got headphones that take much advantage of spacial audio or lossless though 🤔 I expect @Sobtanian@mstdn.games will know if non-apple headphones do anything with Spacial

All I want is Spotify but with the UI of Apple Music. It wouldn't even need to be as clean, just less messy than it currently is.

I can't jump for now though due to a family member being on the family plan that would struggle to hop to Apple Music (we tried before and their Apple ID just didn't work for some reason and Apple couldn't fix it)

@Jeff@bluenoser.me This article has zero commentary on what energy sources these DCs are using. Many of the big DC players are already, or well on the way to, using all sustainable energy. The headline is misleading without this detail.

There are many reasons to call out AI issues, but I’m not sure power usage, at least not without much more robust data on what DCs run AI and their energy mix, is one.

Also AI is giving some fantastic results in medical research. LLMs are lame though.

Spotify is objectively a terrible way to access and listen to podcasts.

@renchap@oisaur.com @Julianoe@mastodon.xyz @prachisrivas@masto.ai @cestfleuve@mastodon.nz I need to find the source again, but I did see some good evidence,very much to my surprise, that the abuse of quote posts has been overstated. That is not to say it doesn’t happen, but it’s not the boogeyman I and others thought it was.

@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social I actually agree. “Bullying” someone based purely on their net wealth is *still* bullying. Sure, criticise them and call out the errors of their ways by all means but let’s not go down the dark path of throwing mud as the first reaction.

@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social for me I’m not interested in any of the platforms being pushed at the “next Twitter” given they all have an agenda. Even Project Mushroom which is basically a commercial Mastodon instance with its own objectives. For now I’m happy here. As a technologist I’ll be checking out these various platforms but I’ll not “be” there, so to speak.

@dansinker@omfg.town true, but arguably they *should*. The more people have a basic, and it only needs to be basic, understanding of the technologies they depend upon daily the more empowered they will be to ensure those technologies and spaces serve them, not faceless shareholders, billionaires, or governments (corrupt or otherwise)
