77% Of Employees Report AI Has Increased Workloads And Hampered Productivity, Study Finds
  • It is great for pattern recognition (we use it to recognize damages in pipes) and probably pattern reproduction (never used it for that). Haven't really seen much other real life value.

  • AP gov exam
  • I think we are talking "boring" from an outside perspective.

    The 1950s saw the Korean war, the Algerian war for Independence (where France mass murdered hundred thousand of civilians), we saw the end of the first Indochina War and the beginning of the Vietnam War, we saw the revolution in Cuba, we saw the first hydrogen bombs, the soviet Luna 2 was the first spacecraft to land on the moon, the cold war really picked up, NASA and CERN were established, the polio vaccine was invented, and so on.

    The 1950s were far from boring for the world outside the US picked fence.

  • Diesel-smelling
  • Yeah, monoculture is probably the culprit, not climate change.

  • The Air BnB market is very competitive
  • Many also have quite a lot of social areas, shopping places and good public transportation. If they are well maintained, they are far superior to the space wasting, infraatructure hungry, climate destroying sprawling suburbs of several western countries.

  • Major IT outage affecting banks, airlines, media outlets across the world
  • I am no expert. But afaik drivers normally are integrated into the kernel and intensively tested by several parties before getting onto your computer. Only for proprietary drivers this would be problematic under Linux.

  • TikTok pushed far-right AfD party on young voters in Germany
  • Don't know about youtube, but I have a similar experience at twitter. I believe they probably see blocking, muting or reporting as "interaction" and show more of the same as a result.

    On youtube on the other hand, I never blocked a channel and almost never see militaristic or right wing stuff (despite following some gun nerds, because I think they are funny).

  • Maybe it was someone from the future.
  • I mean, there have been more than a dozen confirmed assassination attempts on Hitler (even suicide bomber attempts among them) and a few more unconfirmed possible attempts. The future did try their best (or just some brave people from the time itself).

  • The amount of sugar consumed by children from soft drinks in the UK halved within a year of the sugar tax being introduced, a study has found.
  • Once you stop taking sugar in coffee and tea you'll also notice that both tast so much better without sugar. :)

  • Never give up
  • My most popular Twitter comment is me admitting that I was wrong. I became somewhat of a short time celebrity for that one day (in my language).

  • 98% compatibility
  • I just downloaded the .deb and installed it without having to change anything.

    But don't get me started on my problems I had with that f...ing microsoft account to get onto our shared server. Somehow I am too dumb for that (same on the tablet).

  • Devastating, the Worst Politician from the 2000s Said Something You Agree With
  • Is he afraid that Trump will cost him and Rumsfeld their legacy?

  • Wait, not like that
  • I would still insist that heating is the only way to make much of Europe permanently inhabitable. Yes, houses get more efficient and the energy necessary gets less (same is true for cooling a house though). Still, we had a week of permanent -10°C 1,5a ago. Without heating we'd probably have to count the deaths in the millions for that week alone.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • This. Plus that Trump will never back out and I doubt the Republican Party would have the strength to force him. On the other hand. getting a better suited candidate then Biden appeared to be somewhat possible for a moment, but I'd say that moment is probably over.

  • “Immensely disappointing”: Nike killing app for $350 self-tying sneakers
  • Add bonus features already installed on the shoe, but need an extra subscription. Maybe clips to connect them to your bike pedals, but it costs 4.99€/month to actually use that feature. Think about all the feature subscription you could sell for a good hiking shoe.

    (I really hope they won't do this, but I can see them trying it.)

  • Wait, not like that
  • I lived through dry summers around 40°C without ACs without a problem my whole 40+ years of life. But 30°C with a high humidity is a different thing. Much comes down to being accustomed to things though naturally. I have friends who grew up in southern China who get problems when the heat is dry.

    But people live in areas that get 35+°C every year for several month since the beginning of humanity itself.

  • Wait, not like that
  • People live there for many thousand years now and most of the time without ACs. It is defintly inhabitable. We "waste" the energy to make it comfortable.

    Considering the energy we "waste" to make most of Europe inhabitable on the other hand... And here it really is about "inhabitable", because without heating we couldn't live in e.g. Germany.

    If we only lived in areas where it would be comfortable without heating and ACs we'd have to kill of 90% of humanity.

  • Wait, not like that
  • The temperature is not a big problem imo. The humidity though.

  • Meet my 5 year old Tabasco - I already killed her 2 times - just gave her a new chance at live

    Grew her 2019 from seed. She flowered a little late so I took her to my office, where I have a perfect nice south facing office. She produced a ton of peppers. Then I "killed" her (cut her of way down, leaving her no leaves at all) and left her. 2 weeks later she came back. So I started giving her water and nutrients. She grew back and gave (less) peppers in 2020. As I have been on and off in the office (guess we all know why) she wasn't treated as she deserved. At the end of the year, I "killed" her again. She came back again. So I gave her water. I gave her way too little nutrients (I hardly ever was at the office, she was mostly watered by a colleague), I never repotted her. I feel like a monster. She didn't produce peppers. Then suddenly in the fall of 2023 she produced 3 proud little peppers. So, I finally decided to take her back home and just repotted her in a nice, bigger pot and gave her the nutrients and fresh dirt (after 5 years...) she desperatly needed. I am somewhat exited what she will do this year.

    Were do I get a good bundle? @lemmy.world The Menemen! @lemmy.world

    Another Warhammer literature deal

    www.humblebundle.com Humble Book Bundle: Chronicles of the World of Warhammer by Black Library

    We’ve bundled a mighty collection of Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar novels to fully immerse readers in the epic and treacherous World of Warhammer!

    Looks interesting. But I literally have dozens of warhammer (fantasy and 40k) books left to read and hear... Oh man, what do you guys think?

    Summer Sports Spectacular Bundle

    www.humblebundle.com Summer Sports Spectacular: NBA 2K23 & More

    Pay what you want for a collection of scorching sports games featuring NBA 2K3 and lots more, and help support The Trevor Project with your purchase.

    Still undecided about this one. I like NBA games, but was quite disappointed in the last 2k game I bought (NAB 21), the personal player mode was just so annoyingly micropayment ruined.

    Lethal League Blaze looks cool, but 14€ is probably a little too much for it alone.

    And I read too much unpromising stuff about WWE 2k battlegrounds.

    One day left: Martha Wells, A.G. Riddle, and Co.

    www.humblebundle.com Martha Wells, A.G. Riddle, and More Audiobooks from Recorded Books

    We’ve teamed up with Recorded Books for our newest bundle. Get books like Martha Wells’ The Murderbot Diaries series & A.G. Riddle’s The Long Winter trilogy.

    Bought it a few days ago. Seems to be well regarded on goodreads and a quick hear in made it sound like a quality production.

    Was spiel ihr so?

    Moin,

    vermute zwar nicht, dass sich hier viele her verirren, aber ich mach trotzdem mal den Anfang,

    Was spielt ihr so? Mehr klassisches (DnD, DSA, Cthullhu und co.) oder mehr erzählerisches (PbtA, Fate und co.)?

    Ich selbst bin eher klassisch unterwegs. Zuletzt vor allem DnD. Aber gerne auch Shadowrun oder alles mit der Mutant Year Zero Engine.

    Würde gerne mehr Erzählspiele probieren. Das einzige, was ich je gespielt habe war “Ein ruhiges Jahr” und das war klasse. Aber meine Gruppe ist da konservativ und ich hab zu wenig Zeit um zusätzlich zur Gruppe die lokalen Cons abzuklappern. :(
