Elon Musk lawyer says $1 million voter giveaway winners are not random
  • Except that they stated multiple times, publicly, that the winners are picked randomly. So if they are not running a lottery then they have defrauded the participants.

  • Spider Twigling
  • Well that looks like a tick, so it wasn't a spider.

    Also, reminds me of a classic story: https://quirogatranslated.wordpress.com/2014/06/20/the-feather-pillow/

  • US-made jam-resistant drones helped Ukrainians cut through Russia EW
  • My first reaction when reading "jam resistant" was "what, like raspberry?" I think I've watched Spaceballs one too many times.

  • Popular Chrome Extension to Hide YouTube Shorts Turned Malicious
  • "BuT mAnIfEsT v3 wIlL pRoTeCt UsErS fRoM mAlIcIoUs ExTeNsIoNs."

  • Too many Github repositories bad?
  • I've interviewed a candidate that created dozens of GH projects, each one just being a list of tools for various topics. So they'd have "Programming tools", "Security", "Databases", etc. They may have thought that on the surface it would show them as a well-rounded candidate, but if you dug into it, it was just that - a set of lists. Even AI generated slop that gets churned out by the dozens these days has more content than those projects did. Even worse, when asked about their experience with the tools, the candidate couldn't give a useful response. It was like asking about the Donner Party and getting an answer about birthday parties.

  • How to You Research Vet Products on the Post AI internet?
  • Glassdoor is not reliable. Companies can pay to suppress negative comments.

    Are there trusted impartial review sites?

    They exist, but are very few - their articles get stolen by unscrupulous copycats, or the AI slop buries them in noise. It's like panning for gold, but instead of a bubbling creek it's sewage runoff. I hardly ever find trustworthy results on the first page any more, you got to go several pages deep until you stop seeing the "Top N <search term> you absolutely need to buy!" results.

  • [Help] Performance on External Monitors with the Steam Deck OLED for SCP: Secret Laboratory and Similar Games
  • I have my SD docked into a 4k monitor most of the time, and I can tell you with certainty that some games will struggle at 4k on the SD. You can still use the 4k monitor for them, just play at a lower resolution.

  • Too many Github repositories bad?
  • A repo per project is not necessarily bad. However, don't create five dozen documentation projects, each of which is just a list of references. That's padding, and it'll be really obvious and annoying.

  • Top 10 metal moments in classical music
  • Vivaldi would have definitively enjoyed speed metal.

  • We're all SpongeBob
  • Frito Bandito.

  • Please tell me this isn't termites
  • Looks like rodent droppings.

  • Changing DE/Changing Distro
  • If you're not comfortable mucking with the kernel: Install a dedicated media distro and add whichever DE you prefer. Otherwise, sticking with Debian will likely be more convenient.

  • Another EV Motorcycle Company Is Dead, Joins Countless Others
  • So you're saying they should have a non-optional built in speaker playing fox screams?

  • Apollo 11 moonwalker Buzz Aldrin endorses Trump for president
  • So the guy who punched someone for being a moon landing denier decides to vote for one of the people majorly responsible for perpetuating COVID and science denialism.

  • What are your favorite ambient spaces in the video games you've played that you really like and would enjoy in real life?
  • Skellige in Witcher 3 (minus the monsters). I can't not stop to take in the sights. And the music is *chef's kiss*.

  • It's just a phase
  • Polyglottal?

  • Can MDM software be used to spy on employee ?
  • Work laptop or personal laptop?

    If it's a work-supplied laptop then it's their device, and you should not use it for personal stuff. Always assume that company-supplied devices are monitored. Having said that, IT won't sit there watching your every move, but they will care if you watch porn or download torrents.

    If it's a personal laptop then they can go pound salt.

  • Here's how to use a roundabout, according to the OPP. Remember to signal your exits.
  • If you enter to the inside lane you exit to the inside lane. Given how roundabouts are designed in Ontario, this ensures that traffic entering from the range direction never crosses: Right lane either exits right or goes straight (first or second exit), inside lane goes straight or left (second or third exit), just like at an intersection without dedicated turn lanes.

  • Someone make an app
  • Fun fact, pollution makes sunset colors more vibrant.

  • [Feature request] Don't render markdown in post titles

    Every once in a while my feed contains a post with a title that begins with a hashmark, most frequently either microblog type posts with hashtags or numbered project update posts. Summit dutifully renders these titles as if they were markdown titles with a huge font. I would very much appreciate an option to render post titles as-is instead.

    Crash when blocking a community

    Since the most recent update, every time I try to block a community, the Summit app crashes.

    Things I tried:

    • Clearing the cache
    • Clearing storage
    • Using a different account
