Phones would be far less socially damaging if social media didn’t exist in the way it does now.

Please read my comments before you respond to them.

Human vision is very, very, very good. If you think a camera installed to a car is even close to human eyesight, then you are extremely mistaken.

Human eyes are so far beyond it’s hard to even quantify.

And bullshit on you not being able to see the lights. They’re specifically designed so that’s not an issue for colourblind people.

Tesla’s argument of “well human eyes are like cameras therefore we shouldn’t use LiDAR” is so fucking dumb.

Human eyes have good depth perception and absolutely exceptional dynamic range and focusing ability. They also happen to be linked up to a rapid and highly efficient super computer far outclassing anything that humanity has ever devised, certainly more so than any computer added to a car.

And even with all those advantages humans have, we still crash from time to time and make smaller mistakes regularly.

HDR is kinda complicated right now.

As it stands, it’s only available on the Plasma and Gnome desktop environments.

The HDR stack on Linux has went through a lot of change recently, and much of the stack has only just been finalised/standardised. It’ll take a while to mature, and to arrive on distros like Mint.

No

I wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s bigotry to dislike Nazis, but you do you mate.

You wouldn’t want the Signal brand to become linked to it.

“I’m on Signal, would you like to chat there?”

“What, on the MAGA Nazi app, are you joking? Of course I’m not talking to you there!”

Ideally you want a broad spectrum of people.

I know it shouldn’t make a difference and people should base their views strictly on the technical and usability aspects of the app, but real life doesn’t work that way. Perceptions matter.

SDDM (and GDM) can be a pain sometimes, so I welcome this.

I had the exact same thought. By the sounds of their announcement, yes!

The Stardew Valley preview is an opportunity for you to get involved, test it, and let us know what you think. It currently has all the features needed to help you easily mod Stardew Valley, such as mod updates and installing collections.

I need to remind myself to install this when I get the chance. Navigating the site for every mod, downloading them, extracting them, deleting old mods, and moving them over is very tedious to do on a steam deck without an external monitor/KB+M

One of the many games in my steam library that I bought and still haven’t played. I need to force myself to play some games…

This source backs me up, not you.

Under the terms of the contract, the Chinese group has the possibility of converting its obligations within two years in order to become a minority shareholder in the French group - in the order of 5 to 7.5% of the capital, according to the documents obtained by Politico. But such a scenario, which would allow Huawei to influence Qwant’s strategy, can only be achieved if the Chinese group obtains prior among other conditions. According to Politico, this mechanism reassured the Deposit Fund. Qwant, on the other hand, assures that Huawei is not trying to get into its capital.

So, a 2021 source says Huawei, in accordance with agreements, could possibly take a 5 to 7.5% stake as long as they did it within two years. It then states that this isn’t something Huawei actually intends to go ahead with.

It’s been well over two years, Huawei indeed didn’t take a stake in Qwant, and Qwant is still entirely French-German.

With that above information, you went online and lied, saying Huawei owns Qwant. They do not. You lied. And now you’re doubling down on it.

Bit suspicious, by the way, that you’re a new account with only 3 comments, all of which spreading misinformation.

Qwant is owned by Huawei.

No it isn’t.

Why are you lying like this? What’s the goal?

Qwant is based in Paris and its owners are:

• Jean-Manuel Rozan

• Éric Léandri

• Patrick Constant

• Caisse des dépôts et consignations (basically a public investment institution owned by the French government)

• Groupe Axel Springer (an online media company based in Germany)

So again: why did you lie? What’s the goal here?

The Fedora 42 Beta is looking very tempting right now…

I’ve pre-ordered the Core Time 2.

Pre-orders are something I never usually do, but given this is essentially just an improved version of an existing product, as opposed to a Kickstarter, I feel more confident. And I can cancel the preorder at any time (plus I’ll see reviews of the cheaper model before the Core Time 2 ships).

The price made me wince, though. It’s very expensive for the functionality. Technically cheaper than the original watches adjusted for inflation, but that ignores the current-day smartwatch market. Still, I loved the Pebble, so I think it’s worth it.

I just pre-ordered one, but the price made me wince 😬

I definitely think Apple is less susceptible to this, but people seem to forget that Apple literally has an ads business.

Look at the ads in Apple news and in a couple of other places. Apple isn’t immune to injecting ads into the UX of their products.

Some countries actually hold them accountable and have reasonable privacy laws/laws about how you can use the user’s data.

Running locally is the answer.

Mazda is a physical dial by default, but if you want to you can go into the settings and enable the touch screen. Best of both worlds.
