Plenty of options out there both chromium and non-chromium based, no excuse in my book!

People still raw dog the internet without ad blockers in the year of our lord 2025?

I opened it and saw precisely 0 ads (aside from the article itself trying to sell me DK) on FF for Android.

Can say from experience, its a lot smoother while docked. That said, performance in handheld mode isn’t problematic, it’s just (unsurprisingly) less smooth.

They’re always good for a sequel

Probably wouldn’t hold my breath for a third one though.

Offline indexing has been working just fine for me for years. I don’t think I’ve ever needed to search for something esoteric like “the report with the blue header and the photo of 3 goats having an orgy”, if I really can’t remember the file name, or what it’s associated with in my filing system, I can still remember some key words from the text.

Better indexing / automatic tagging of my photos could be nice, but that’s a rare occurrence, not a “I NEED a button for this POS on my keyboard and also want it always listening to everything I do” kind of situation

Tell your boss you talked to legal and they caution that all copilot data is potentially discoverable.

It’s a fun party trick for like a second, but at no point today did I need a picture of a goat in a sweater smoking three cigarettes while playing tic-tac-toe with a llama dressed as the Dalai Lama.

As someone who hates orally dictating my thoughts, that’s a no from me dawg, but I can kinda understand the appeal (though I’ll note offline TTS has been around for like a decade pre-AI)

Maybe I’m just getting old, but I honestly can’t think of any practical use case for AI in my day-to-day routine.

ML algorithms are just fancy statistics machines, and to that end, I can see plenty of research and industry applications where large datasets need to be assessed (weather, medicine, …) with human oversight.

But for me in my day to day?

I don’t need a statistics bot making decisions for me at work, because if it was that easy I wouldn’t be getting paid to do it.

I don’t need a giant calculator telling me when to eat or sleep or what game to play.

I don’t need a Roomba with a graphics card automatically replying to my text messages.

Handing over my entire life’s data just so a ML algorithm might be able to tell me what that one website I visited 3 years ago that sold kangaroo testicles was isn’t a filing system. There’s nothing I care about losing enough to go the effort of setting up copilot, but not enough to just, you know, bookmark it, or save it with a clear enough file name.

Long rant, but really, what does copilot actually do for me?

The fuck does Microsoft need VC money for?

The fact that you posted a link to this video from YouTube not peer tube says a lot.

Idk if it makes me elderly, a child, or a non-gamer, but I fucking loved BOTW/TOTK. Nintendo, through those games and countless more, have repeatedly proven frame rates and fidelity aren’t what make games great. Sure, some games (especially competitive ones) benefit from better performance, but just as many get by on their creativity, story, etc.

Certain other content crosses boarders. Mastadon especially. Whenever you see people replying to messages and it starts with some sort of @user@lemmy.verse tagging, you’re probably eavesdropping on a Mastadon thread and you don’t even know it.

Can someone please get that man a copy of Battle Rush: Build Up Robot Tournament before he sells it all?

If I were him, I’d at least make the sale conditional on having enough time to acquire the game with the new funds before shipping.

When you start getting up to/past 1080p, better texture quality >> higher resolution. I’d rather they spend the extra GPU cycles to take their 540p content from “Low” to “Medium” quality before upscaling than take it from upscaling 1080p to 2160p.

6.9% when?

Yeah, except the states dumb enough to ban porn only have like 1% of the US population.
