FYI: you can just look it up.

It was a picture of the CEO of Funko captioned with a death threat.

Yeah, it always seems that every time someone questions the wisdom or validity of this analogy seems not to understand it.

It’s either the misunderstanding that the constraints of the hypothetical are finite (a million vs. infinity).

Or the insistence that any sufficiently infinitesimal chance is “practically zero”, when literally any likelihood multiplied by infinity is going to guarantee an occurrence.

You can actually expand the infinite monkey theory to say that an infinite number of monkeys using typewriters for an infinite amount of time would write every single book ever written in any language the keyboard is capable of typing, as well as every possible book that could ever even theoretically exist, an infinite number of times, and still be correct.

Any infinite set of random (or even semi-random) characters will contain every possible set of characters that could ever exist, of any length. The works of Shakespeare are also encoded into Pi, we just haven’t calculated enough digits to discover one yet (and very likely never will).

Poor person commits crime: “Life in prison”

Rich person commits same crime: “One day in prison”

Excellent plan. Even worse than the current system. You’re a genius.

I mean, “game cheats” might be an understatement. Bungie runs an online service, and Ring-1 is creating and selling millions of dollars worth of exploits that allow users to cheat at a game that includes financial transactions and competitive play, by exploiting the servers that run the game.

Successfully attacking their online service, while indicative of Bungie running an insecure service, would be considered a form of cybercrime, as compared to simply exploiting the game code on your machine. You can’t legally make and sell hacking tools that exploit online services.

And cheating at competitive play with real-world stakes is fraud.

Biggest plot hole in The Handmaid’s Tale is that Texas isn’t a part of Gilead.

They won’t be able to continue running their business in the US, so likely they won’t be able to continue working with US cloud providers. But there’s nothing stopping them from hosting it somewhere else and allowing US users to still connect, but all the commerce options are going to be useless at that point.

the guy had a yearly salary in the hundreds of millions.

He’s the CEO of a publicly traded company. His salary is publicly available. It was $9.86M. His net worth was estimated at $40M.

I keep hearing a lot of pretty extreme exaggerations about this guy’s wealth, including that he was a billionaire. He was a 1%er for sure, but literally nowhere near the wealth of an oligarch. I guess being deliberately dishonest is helping people justify their full-throated endorsement of vigilantism and murder this week.

Wouldn’t exaggerating the problem just diminish the point being made? Unless this 16M figure actually references something concrete, it’s meaningless. Throwing around numbers that don’t mean anything isn’t a great strategy if you want your point taken seriously.

I understand that people are answering this question in good faith, but I also want to point out that the snippet at the end of the video is intended to be a citation for the content creator, and the motives for removing that part of these videos in bulk are questionable.

I can’t think of any good reasons to want to do this. I can think of a really bad one though: automated content theft.

This isn’t a subreddit. You’re allowed to talk about piracy here.

I mean movies and tv shows.

Well, you just edited your question to be about Linux Distros (a thing you cannot pirate), so I am still not sure what you’re on about.

ISOs of what? Piracy is alive and well on IRC, but this isn’t much of a question.

Well, Bluesky claims to be a federated service, so I guess people should consider whether or not the service they are backing is capable of fulfilling its promises.

I’m not sold.

Only two Ethernet ports. No SFP. Only available on AliExpress. Dishonestly marketed as the “first router designed specifically for OpenWRT”.

Perhaps they are the first to make a router for OpenWRT the FOSS project, but certainly not the first to make one specifically for compatibility with the OpenWRT the Linux-based OS.

CZ.NIC (Czech Republic) makes several fully open-source routers under the “Turris” brand that run their own open-source variant of OpenWRT called “Turris OS”. It’s basically just an Open-WRT based distro with a custom frontend + root ssh and LuCI, and you can go vanilla if you want to.

GL.iNet (China) makes dozens of routers all designed for OpenWRT. They come standard with a custom install that includes a custom frontend and a handful of integrations, but you’ve gotta root ssh and LuCI, and you can go vanilla.

There are probably more out there. I think GlobalScale makes a few also, once on Kickstarter.

Yeah, but what if they’re right wing weirdos obsessed with genealogy and they reach out to you first because they want to save you or something?

Write the engine first.

Create characters, stages, and items as modules.

Release them together as a fully playable pack, while leaving the door open for user-created modules. Let the community clone SSB using your engine.

Uh, Shared GPU memory absolutely exists on Linux. Mind you this only exists (regardless of OS) when you have a shitty integrated GPU with no dedicated VRAM, but I am not sure why you think this only exists for Windows (or some other non-Linux OS, you did not specify).

It’s an open federated system, just like Lemmy. Your posts belong to everyone.

OpenAI is a tech company, so I guess it’s tangential. Your post is about the music industry…

‘5’ does come before ‘M’.
