I had not thought of this serving as an entry or a trial for new customers. It makes a lot of sense. Thank you.

The article indicates this was for their Prime Day event.

Are people really waiting for an annual event to buy their groceries? Or are the Fresh delivery personnel reassigned to other verticals for the event's duration?

Former is shocking and borderline dystopian. Latter is just poor planning and resourcing.

Excellent sleuthing.

The art did come off as being AI assisted, if not generated. But I did not want to discredit the art by saying it outright. The weird placement of the cabinet and distorted perspective of the entire art was what led me to suspect.

It does feel like I am being run by amphibians, neither here nor there.

Also, why is the blue telephone cord stretching away from the telephone? Is the cord for a different telephone not shown in the art, and the telephone in the art just happens to have its handset on the ground or outside the frame?

Safe: Use text expansion for trivial yet long texts like your emails, addresses, etc. to almost eliminate errors in those texts. Espanso is something I use on Linux Mint, while macOS supports text expansion natively. I am yet to find something that fills the gap on NetBSD, but I almost exclusively use emacs on those machines, which has native support for snippets.

Unsafe: Remove USB drive without ejecting it. :P

Contrived yet neat: With special software (BetterTouchTool on macOS) or keyboard firmware (QMK and ZMK, which is what I use), one can use Spacebar as a layer key (SpaceFn, as it makes Spacebar behave as a Fn key) to unlock neat shortcuts like navigating using HJKL, add macros, remap hard to reach keys on to the home row, etc. There are other things that can be done such as one-shot modifiers which make typing less straining.

P.S. The snark in the comments here is surprising. Everyone starts somewhere. Let us be welcoming.

Which country, if you don’t mind telling?

Alternatively, is that a decision made by your country’s people/government? Or did Amazon just not want to operate there?

Very inspiring, if it is the former.

Thank you for enlightening me.

What a weird thing to argue.

It doesn’t matter whether the list is part of the video or whether it was created by PewDiePie.

The list, in the screenshot of OP, is garbage.

Besides, the same screenshot is of a video that shows the list along with the name of the channel and the video title (which correlates with other news of the creator releasing an anti-Google video). So the list, for all purposes of this discussion, is part of the video.

Doesn’t matter if it is his list nor did I ever say it was garbage because it is his.

It is garbage, objectively.

Gunn elaborated […] while talking with Variety.

“I’m excited for people to get to see the essence of what we’re doing, because it really has been like this private secret that we’ve all been hoarding,” he said. “We felt really good about it, like from a moral place, even from the beginning. We all felt like we were doing something good, both in terms of quality and in terms of actually something that’s not a fascistic power fantasy.”

The background score is based on John Williams' score from 1978.

Not sure whether the piece of music is only for the poster or is part of the movie's score.

In a chat alongside 'Commandos' showrunner Dean Lowery, the DC Studios co-chief also delves into why that ‘Justice League’ tag from ‘Peacemaker’ season one is no longer canon in the DCU: “They don't exist yet.”

I learned about IBM’s Granite LLM[0] when a toot[1] had a mention of it. I came across the toot while reading a comment[2] here on Lemmy.

I have an old ThinkPad T42 coming my way. I plan to use it alongside my daily driver mainly for reading, emacs, and retro gaming. I will be dual booting a lightweight flavour of Linux (TBD) and Windows 98 on it.

However, I am a bit concerned about its ability to handle today's internet, with all of its heavy websites.

I would love to hear from those of you who are still using old ThinkPads (or other vintage laptops) in 2024. How do you make it work? Do you use lightweight browsers, specific configurations, or lightweight websites to get around the limitations of older hardware?

Are there any specific tips or tricks you can share for getting the most out of an old ThinkPad on the modern web?

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences!

Suggestions for a complimentary typeface to JetBrains Mono for reading and writing documents or prose

I am looking for a typeface that complements well to the one that I use to write code (JetBrains Mono). I will be using this to write documents and articles.

For further context, I am configuring Emacs' org-mode where I would be using both typefaces together. I could use JetBrains Mono for both purposes as I find it capable. But I would like to explore my options.

I have also looked at Iosevka. It offers variants for coding, reading, and writing. But I would prefer to stick with JetBrains Mono as much as I can for coding purposes.

I thought the person in the picture was reading code on a tablet device, and was wondering what is wrong with the picture. :D

Why is the code printed in dark mode!?!
