Gun control doesn't have to be perfect to prevent shootings. Even a small reduction in guns will save lives.

Apologies, I misread your comment as saying you had to use the terminal to use Linux (I was drunk ngl). I still believe Linux is easier to use than Windows with the caveat that the easiest system to use will always be the one you have the most experience with. I switched from MacOS/Windows to Fedora on my personal machine a few months ago and it's been smooth sailing for me, though I have always used Linux at least somewhat (I work in cyber security), so that has probably helped.

Dismissing Linux as a tool for a different job (ie not personal/business computing) is an odd position to take for someone with your experience.

I don't think they would do that unless Lemmy continues to grow to a point where it challenges Reddit. Then it becomes a technical issue. I don't think they can do that. It was one thing for threads to do it, being designed with that in mind from day 1, but it's completely different for Reddit to do it. There are so many features that just wouldn't make the jump, and so much content that would need to be reworked.

If they were going to do it, it would most likely be a clean break where you just can't access old Reddit content on Lemmy, but all their new stuff would be accessible.

I also just don't see them giving away their content like that after cracking down on the API how they did.

That version doesn't exist is what I'm saying. The manufacturers have to put in significant work to get it to that point. And along the way they have to choose to make it similar to pixel/what people expect "stock" android to look like, instead of putting their own flair on it. My point is that it takes just as much work to make an android skin that feels "stock" as to make one that doesn't. You can't dismiss their version of Android as being "stock" because that doesn't exist.

Stock android doesn't really exist. It barely works and is missing essential features like working Bluetooth audio. It's intended as a starting point for companies to build their own experience on top of, if any company released a phone running anywhere near stock android they would be laughed out of existence. Linus Tech tips did a pretty good overview of what stock android is a few days ago https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-hlRB2izres

The fact that Facebook are allowing spam pages into this is wild.

I run a Facebook page (periodically). Frequently post things which get 3k+ likes. Facebook has paid me $0.

Strange to equate the other senses to performance in intellectual tasks but sure. Do you think feeding data from smells, touch, taste, etc. into an AI along with the video will suddenly make it intelligent? No, it will just make it more likely to guess what something smells like. I think it's very clear that our current approach to AI is missing something much more fundamental to thought than that, it's not just a dataset problem.
