Just call it Ecmascript and be done with it. The name JavaScript was misleading from the beginning. Well, Ecma sounds like a skin disease but who cares.

I'm not the original commenter. And I didn't want to offend you, just wanted give some friendly advice, because it irks me how many people seem to use chatGPT for fact finding. Chill

Edit: If you look for "Paul Wellstone" and "Vietnam War Memorial" you'll find what the OC was on about.

https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2002-oct-26-na-wellstone26-story.html "Wellstone also staged a news conference in front of the Vietnam War Memorial on the National Mall, drawing the ire of many veteran groups. Wellstone later said the event was a mistake."

Just an example of many

Maybe use a search engine instead of an LLM? It's pretty easy to find. On a sidenote, ChatGPT and similar LLMs are known to be absolutely unreliable and error prone. Please do yourself a favor and don't rely on anything an LLM tells you.

They could be sentient without us knowing. But they live on a different time scale. Everything we do to them would happen very quickly in their perception. So don't worry and bon appetit.

Serious question: Was there ever an intel GPU which could be used to play 3d graphics intensive games? The only chips I came across so far were woefully underperforming laptop chips with fancy names.

Same here. On the upside, "All“ on Lemmy has a much higher quality than what Reddit had in the past years. I really enjoy my daily doomscroll on Lemmy.

Valid points indeed, but I think this strategy might not work in his favor, because anyone who had to endure any kind of racial discrimination based on something like skin color will be offended by these attacks. The old white man simply doesn't have any legitimacy to comment on someone being too black or not black enough. It's disgusting and weird.

“Is a $100 Dunkin’ Donuts gift card for a trash collector wrongful?” wrote Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the court’s opinion. “What about a $200 Nike gift card for a county commissioner who voted to fund new school athletic facilities? Could students take their college professor out to Chipotle for an end-of-term celebration?”

In my country government employees (including teachers) can't legally accept gifts above €10 in value. All of these examples would be illegal here. Sounds petty, but anti-corruption laws are pretty strict for a reason.

Nicht ganz. Ich habe schon mit eigenen Augen gesehen, dass der Inhalt des Papierformulars dann von einer Sachbearbeiterin in ein digitales Formular abgetippt wird.

Correct, but the problem here is that apple products are extremely closed up. If they choose not to provide updates any more that's totally fine, but they should enable developers to install a different os instead of turning the devices to e-waste. There are some projects trying to make a Linux installation possible on iPads, but so far they have failed due to apple's gatekeeping.

I have an iPad from 2012 which would still be perfectly usable if Apple hadn't marked this iPad Generation as "obsolete", and of course it would be a security risk to use it without updates. However, if I could install Linux on it, there would no need to throw it away.

Guter Artikel, ich finde es immer wieder krass wie dreist diese Verpackungen als umweltfreundlich angepriesen werden.

Die Rücknahme von Getränkekartons an bestehenden Pfandrücknahmeautomaten im Handel ist technisch problemlos umsetzbar

Das glaube ich aber erst wenn ich es sehe... Die derzeitigen Pfandrücknahmesysteme sind alle auf Flaschenform ausgelegt, viele haben schon bei Flaschen in perfektem Zustand mit perfekt erhaltenem Etikett Schwierigkeiten, diese zu erkennen. Man darf gespannt sein was zuerst kommt: Selbstfahrende Autos, Flugtaxis oder die automatische Rücknahme von TetraPaks
