They literally try and positively review bazzite in the linked video.

If his teasers are to be believed thats what he does for the second installment of this.
I think the purpose of the video is to review who you can just tell to switch to linux and have them be able to do it unassisted in a short time frame. I think it does a pretty good job of showing that, the type of person linus was emulating represents a pretty large group of people and they generally can’t switch without either a large amount of frustration or a helpful friend. Also keep in mind this is the first in a series not a single video.
I think you are grossly overestimating people’s capabilities if you think anyone can switch to linux with no interactive help. https://xkcd.com/2501/ . “Setting up windows” for most people means swiping the credit card and pressing the power button. They do not care about data collection, and if its slow then they think they should buy the upgraded model.
I also think its funny how many of the people in this thread see this as a negative video, when I think it actually shows things in a very positive light, just a realistic one. I have already had someone switch to linux because of this video.
Windows laptops absolutelly come pre-installed with the drivers compatible with that system.
Also while hit or miss windows update will install graphics drivers (on a slower cadence than direct from.nvidia/amd) even in a fresh windows install. It’s a common pain point for windows update to mistakenly downgrade your drivers.
People are being exposed to something outside their bubble, and are lashing out.

I shudder to think how today’s trump would have responded to 911

IDK he might be, he certainly is a dick. but also you don’t usually get to read the whole script (definitely not the final script) before choosing to accept a role, they may only get a scene, maybe just an elevator pitch etc.
I flew to Germany a month after all the big tarriffs started going down and the airport were full of ads for canadian tourism. Very interesting

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•If you ditched your car, could you afford to leave the suburbs for a great urban neighborhood?English
8·29 days agoIn my experience living in a small urban center has way less annoying neighbour interactions than in suburbia where people have the illusion of isolation. Kids play basketball at the designated basketball courts by the community center, a neighbour burning trash woukd have the fire department 5min away come over asap (although wood based fires are allowed and fine). Most people party at the bars. No hoas, no tiny tyrants, way less street racing at 3am, less car traffic in general.

PC Gaming•Steam to add hardware specs to reviews — optional feature could help you dodge poorly optimized gamesEnglish

Also this articles product placement was really weird and jarring to me. 3rd paragraph is basically just an ad read.
And then theres me who can’t understand the words of a song no matter the language.
I am not a doctor, I just find steel interesting. I also prefer leaf to hash. but I think it’s going to take more than 1000C to create the fumes osha is mainly concerned about, which would make the steel yellow with heat, Even for welders it’s the sort of thing that should concern only people who do it professionally. That said you are kinda directly huffing whatever is coming off it (hypothetically of course). If it’s getting red hot, then it might still be having some oxidation, but it probably isn’t getting into your lungs and it probably is going to stay put in the metal, Probably…
If it’s not glowing at all you are definitely good.
Chromium is only dangerous (in reasonable quantities) when its Hexavalent (meaning it has 6 missing electrons). Trivalent chromium (3 missing electrons) is actually essential in trace amounts. Stainless steel has trivalent chromium. Exposure to high temperatures (welding, plasma cutting, maybe grinding) can oxidize it from trivalent to hexavalent but your kitchen utensils aren’t going to be exposed to that. I’m not an expert though to be clear.
The term “ratio’d” originated from twitter at a time when it had neither upvotes or downvotes (it refered to retweets vs comments). Fundamentally any platform that has more content than can be reasonably consumed by one person must have a way of filtering good and bad posts and as soon as you have that you have people who will chase both the good signal and the bad. You get rid of the upvotes and you encourage people comment farming, you see this on some platforms like tiktok where people will intentionally add in minor errors so that a lot of people comment corrections boosting their engagement or in traditional forums where every other comment is “bump”. Personally I think upvotes are the least bad thing to have people fixate on as it has the least number of side effects.
I do agree that upvote begging like this post is parodying is bad though and should be discouraged.
Here is a link to the tool that video uses. This isn’t a case of someone compromising an existing smart bulb to do sketchy things, but rather someone installing this bulb covertly in your house and using it for penetration testing. the same could be accomplished by an arduino in the bushes or a guy with a white van out front.
Also most smart bulbs use zigbee or zwave not wifi. The hub could be hacked i guess, but I have mine setup to only be accessible on the local network.
On private trackers thats pretty typical in my experience, if you’re getting that on public trackers and you see there are peers then you might not have port forwarding set up correctly.














Jagmeet also had a tik tok presence.
