What if this was just one key

This poor man, who has run a business for nearly 30 years delivering hearing aids to people, has been destroyed financially and reputationally. Facebook has done nothing.

Hacked, robbed, then banned: Canton Township business owner’s meta AI nightmare
A Canton small-business owner says he was hacked twice, had $950 stolen from his account and was then permanently banned from Facebook — accused of one of the most horrific crimes imaginable. Meta, he says, has done nothing to fix it.

I wonder how being slowly boiled by AI propaganda feels like
(This post brought to you by yet another tech person I looked up to for years and who fell completely for AI--only posts about how amazing it is now, no other interests or any discernible personality left.)

Hab heute echt ein willhaben Schnäppchen gemacht. Hab für 45€ ein #Thinkpad T560 bekommen. Der Akku ist mehr oder weniger im Eimer, daher der Preis - aber selbst wenn ich den Akku nachbestelle bin ich da noch gut dabei.
Jetzt kommt erstmal #cachyos drauf.

People like to forget that fighting climate change is about _saving human lives_ and not about saving Earth.
Even if it's 20 degrees higher or 20 degrees lower on average, Earth will do fine, life will do fine, nature will be fine—but humans won't be fine.

I actually think the Neo is amazing value especially considering the screen and battery life; I don’t think there’s other laptops at that price that really can compete with that.
Sure it’s a budget machine and has some serious downsides (8GB memory), but this one thing (no support for Apple’s own displays) seems a cut down too far and is going to cause confusion.

I don’t care if someone calls stuff “spaceflight” (though that usually includes portions of actual flight through air).
But if it’s for a scientific or technology discussion it’s hugely inaccurate and misleading.
In space, things always move in orbits, which is essentially more or less perpetually falling.
To make things go places (e.g. make a thing go to Mars), you change how it’s falling.
Play some Kerbal Space Program some time!

The best thing about this is that there’s two different types of Thunderbolt 5 port here

All the episodes on YouTube are either in 360p 16:9 with the original 4:3 image just stretched out, or they are in 720p 16:9 with black bars on the sides.
The original format is PAL 4:3 576i.
For the love of science, YouTube supports 4:3 videos natively.
jfc why is this so hard
