I will never forget when I had to help a coworker with her laptop, she had long nails that had worn grooves in her keyboard keys.

She typed on her nails, the sound it made was terrible.

Correct, which is why I regretted posting it as soon as i did.

It looks deleted to me, I am using Voyager when I am on my phone, so a well known app, I suspect that the comment I wrote made it to the sync queue, I then immediately deleted the comment, which deleted it on lemmy.zip but didn’t clear the comment from the sync queue, but did generate a delete request to be synced.

Then as a sync request probably would be smaller than a comment and probably has a higher priority than a comment, it got processed before the comment was posted, creating the situation we have.

I have no indepth understanding of lemmy, but as an IT guy, this makes sense

Exactly, which is why I deleted the comment just after I made it as I realized I didn’t have the energy to debate the issue

I am confused, this is the second reply I get on a comment I deleted just after posting it.

I did so as I realized that I didn’t have the energy to debate my smartphone preference with random people online

This misses the point completely, I have tried both Android and iOS in the last five years, and to me iOS is just better, it works like I want it to.

As I noted, that only works with a limited set of AI companies.

They need to be in the juristiction of whatever government that decide to enforce the laws, if not, there is very little that can be done.

Then, besides needing to be in the right juristiction, the punnishment needs to be large enough that you can’t just budget it away.

Then any country doing this will know that they are deliberately getting rid of an important sector, while other countries will continue running their sectors.

Which will only be possible with good old fashioned bouble bursting as I said.

The issue with legally pulling the plug is that it won’t stop AI baddies, only good AI companies who respect the law.

The knowledge and tools are still out there.

But when the bouble bursts it will tank AI globally.

Why not call it a “shutter button”?

“Just one more training on a social network”

Can’t wait for the bouble to burst.

Sure, but is that due to a better product, cheaper product or a better political landscape?

I am leaning on the latter two options.

If it was listed incorrectly as a feature that could be turned on or off and it was a bug, then the bugfix would seem to be making it listed correctly as a feature that can be turned on or off.

“Looking to upstage Apple”

I am sure Huawei will run a good presentation, but I have severe doubts about “upstaging”, especially since we don’t know what Huawei will launch.

Please notice that I spoke about the configuration of the DE/VM, I have learned a lot about DE/VM confug from looking at different distros

It sounds as you want to evaluate different Linux Distributions.

DE/GUI is a good one, terminal commands is a bit useless since the vast majority of Linux systems use Bash as default.

This is what I would look into on a new distro:

UI - What DE or WM is it using, what is the default config like, and try to learn from that. How is the terminal prompt configured (the default Ubuntu and Debian prompts are terrible, I allways change them)

Package Manager - how does it work, what software is available?

Unique software - Does the distribution include some tools, applications or games I haven’t heard about? If so, what do they do, and how do they work.

This gives me a feel for the distribution and how to use it.

It is almost as if there has been about 2 decades of technological development since you last used that kind of tech.

Just get an HDMI->DVI adapter

Why would apple not wipe the device completely on repair or when activated?

He really doesn’t like slanted things
