A lemmy nomad. Wish there was a way to migrate posts and comments from .world to .ml to here... 😪

  • Was just talking with a coworker about how with the rise of server-side rendering we’re finally technologically back to Web 1.0

  • Perhaps the government should collect money from the AI companies — they could call it something simple, like “taxes” — and distribute the money to anyone who had ever written something that made its way to the internet (since we can reasonably assume that everything posted online has now been sucked in to the slop machines)

  • But that's what I'm saying - From a practical perspective we've learned that it is essentially impossible to prosecute -- let alone convict -- a sitting president. They have de facto immunity, even if it's not technically de jure.

  • Didn’t the Supreme Court last year basically decide that the President can do anything without restriction if it’s to execute his duties? Until someone does something about that I don’t understand the purpose of articles like this other than to be rage bait.

  • There might be a lot more millionaires than before, but it’d still be a much smaller number who could drop $1M on a flying car.

  • My team uses Expensify, and I have to say, I don’t hate it. The website is full featured, the mobile app is actually pretty good, and you can even just email receipts to an email address and it will parse them out properly the vast majority of the time. Management-wise it has all of the approval chains, grouping, etc that you might expect. The company I work for is only about 50 people and my team is only 10 so I couldn’t say how well it scales, but I imagine unless you have some particularly unique requirements it’d do the job.

  • Ha, sorry, no, I was making a bad dad-joke. “Cast iron brownies” makes it sound like the brownies are made of cast iron :)

    (And I love making them this way tbh, the sides and bottom are extra crunchy and you get to cut yourself a slice of brownie instead of a brick!)

  • Huh, I would have guessed they were chocolate if not for the title.

  • Believe it or not that initial wave of consolidation brought prices down. A license of SGI Power Animator cost over $30k in the 90s. softImage was not far behind. 3ds Max basically took the fight out of them, at which point Autodesk started going on a buying spree.

  • They’ll implant new skills like “learning to knit”, but won’t mention anything about how to use the three seashells.

  • Thanks for the reminder!

  • This is that Star Trek transporter debate all over again

    Researchers Tattooed Tardigrades. They Promise It Will Be Useful

  • I wonder if the archive.ph guys would be willing to host this as an alternate rendering option. They’re already doing archival downloading and reformatting, and I bet a lot of their users would appreciate having a totally unencumbered view like this.

  • Yep, this is it. Show how “broken” it is by breaking it, and enough of the population won’t even notice when it’s “fixed” and they’re only getting 2/3 of what they were before (and are entitled to). Plus grift, etc.
