Clearly what the world needs, more fucking spam

“People should do whatever they want with AI!!!” - some idiot here on lemmy, about a month ago

Tangent: Jami is p2p, so the only risk of going offline is if everyone in the groups go offline. It does lack several quality of life features, though.

It’s Xiaomi, of course the app will not work without internet access

So you’re telling me M$ will kill the xbox division for good?

An Xbox spokesperson said in a statement that they take a long-term view of their business and that success “doesn’t look the same across every project or priority.” - “We look at the business as a whole, balancing creativity, innovation, and sustainability across a diverse portfolio of offerings,” the spokesperson said.

HAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh my fucking god, these corporate stooges

To account for the lost sales, Xbox offers its developers a credit, which it calls “member-weighted value” and is calculated based on several factors, such as the number of hours that Game Pass players collectively spend on a particular title. The opaque formula seems to favor games in which players can spend the most amount of hours, such as online multiplayer titles, according to people familiar with the calculations.

Interesting, that explains why some studios are getting fucked out of that deal

In July, Hood said on a call with investors that operating income in the Xbox division rose 34% for the quarter that ended in June due to “continued prioritization of higher margin opportunities.” The company is due to report earnings again on Oct. 29.

I’m sure M$ can keep cancelling projects and firing people ad infinitum to ensure a continual rise of operating income /s

Interesting. I looked around what Lula has said and found that, in 2023, he did suggest Ukraine to “cede Crimea in order to stop the war”

In 2025, during a press conference where someone asked him about the Russo-Ukrainian war, after making the case for a ceasefire and negotiating peace, he asked back: “Do you think Putin will leave Crimea?” - although he never supported Russia’s claims for other territories, stating “you don’t always get what you want”.

I can see how that can be taken as support for the aggressor.

The purpose is to create a space for nations to talk to each other, and to organize collective action on issues that the majority of members agree on.

Save for anything the USA says “nope”, like actual action against climate change, putting an end to the trade blockade against Cuba, etc - then the majority can go fuck itself

Not really supporting, but mostly turning a blind eye because Russia is a significant ally and the main source of refined diesel fuel.

Let’s be real, a lot of people got in in the hopes of appeasing “the market”. What “the market” wanted, and still wants, is an excess of qualified people, so they can more easily pick, choose and abuse the workers. This has been the case for ages.

Hope everyone has updated their resumes already

Stay on 10 and force M$ to give further updates because of sheer popularity, just like they had to with XP

There’s also GhostScript, which feels like advanced tooling for dealing with PDFs. I used it to scale down the images in some game PDFs I have and save as a copy, so that my old phones could actually open them. The Warcrow free PDF from Corvus Belli went from a whopping 623MB to around 111MB. Still way too fucking large for my phones. The PDF for Mantic Firefight went from 65MB to ~20MB.

gg, nome

But chatgpt won’t berate the serfs and call them moochers, all while bragging about how hard he worked to get in the top position all by himself without anyone’s help whatsoever!

Well, Venezuela has fuckloads of oil that isn’t going to the USA, so…

More importantly, it doesn’t bundle fucking chrome

Shit, my GPU is about to melt!

“One reporter was killed by the government – unfortunate, but not a fucking hill that I’m gonna die on,” Jim Jefferies said on Theo Von’s podcast in August, arguing it is for the greater good that “freedom-of-speech machines” such as himself bestow their “edgy” material on the kingdom and its subjects. (Since making the comments, Jefferies has since disappeared from the festival’s lineup; his representatives did not respond to inquiries about this.)

lol

How high is that number? According to Dillon, pretty high: in the same podcast that got him fired, he said the organizers offered him $375,000 and claimed that some comedians were offered millions. Gillis did not reveal how much the organizers offered him, but he did say that when he initially refused, they “doubled the bag”. Tough news for Dillon, who elsewhere claimed he asked for $500,000 but had to settle for less.

[Nimesh Patel] suggested that he could make up for the loss by performing “40 shows … here in the perfectly clean, moral, above-everyone-else United States of America.”

Would be funny if any of these comedians accepted but did a shit job on purpose to get booed off stage, then just explained that stunt as “giving their money’s worth”
