I’ve been trying half life for the first time recently and I’m struggling to enjoy it.

Yeah, it did this to me a few months back. Got the files back local eventually but it was a big pain in my arse. If I had time to learn another os I’d already be gone. Seems like Microsoft is determined to asset-strip whatever good reputation their product had left.
Yeah competition won’t work in a market where some competitors have such massive amounts of wealth. This is a failure of unrestrained capitalism and it’s bad for consumers ultimately.
Isn’t this just voice recognition software?
For one glorious moment of misreading there I thought there was a humane pin strap on.
The experience of a news consumer is going to be different from that of a professional journalist. Kinda like the experience of eating a burger is different from working in a kitchen. Yeah, they’re two different things, we were talking journalism. Twitter was never great for news as a consumer imo, but it was a very valuable resource for journalists. I’m not sure how good X is for either but I’m pretty sure nether experience will have improved.
Your experience as someone who tried it for a week probably doesn’t reflect that of people who used it professionally for many years. Part of what made it valuable to media people was the ubiquity of possible sources, but it takes some time and work to develop links to those sources and to the professional contacts who have their own connections to share.
That makes sense, but I guess the problem is that they take up a lot of space.
Yeah, it feels like a much improved version of an Eliza. Much improved, but still software. It doesn’t understand what it’s saying. TBF though I know a few humans like that.
Yeah I’ve been thinking that too. Not sure I have time to learn it though so I keep sticking with windows. But I really have to make the effort to switch.
Thanks I’ll check it out
Isn’t it invite only?
I had just started to appreciate twitter when musk bought it and it turned to shit. The big advantage of it was that it seemed like pretty much everyone was on there to some extent. Mastodon doesn’t have anything like that user base, though it feels like it’s growing and I much prefer the UI.
Damn I didn’t even notice. Guess I don’t really look at the pictures.
I’m wondering if this may already be illegal in some countries. Revenge porn laws now exist in some countries, and I’m not sure if the legislation specifies how the material should be produced to qualify. And if the image is based on a minor, that’s often going to be illegal too - some places I hear even pornographic cartoons are illegal if they feature minors. In my mind people who do this shit are doing something pretty similar to putting hidden cameras in bathrooms.
Yeah, if Linux wants to become an alternative OS for average folks, its users need to stop being so evangelical and obnoxious. I’m sure there are linux users who don’t blow goats, they’re just not on lemmy, or they’re keeping quiet.
The twilight barking, I still hear it sometimes round where I live.
