I didnt say it was laudable oversight but it is more than what we see of China.

No, I'd doubt it. Its quite a robust system that has been trialed extensively on a use case by case basis. Its also not directly customer facing.

Yeah...Im not defending microsoft here I dont use a single product of theirs outside work.

Im saying they are the same, with less oversights, tramsparency and more state complicity(or at least visibly so)

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Yeah I'm not entirely sure about that, they are all the same one is just state sponsored.

HarmonyOS is their property, its not like they couldnt get nefarious shit into it

I was being sarcastic, I think both AI and VR will have applications but not to the ectent everyone is envisioning. These sound like niche utility based solutions, not consumer products.

VR has been underwhelming...maybr if we can get AI into it I will love it?

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Legitimate interest. If its not first party it can fuck off.

High seas baby!

There is surely a recognisable pattern here in which people leave because of this shit and to keep the flow of money going up they then have to further reduce quality by increasing ads.

I deleted my facebook a few weeks ago and signing in for the first time in years gave a look at what it became and it was unrecognisable.

It will hit the average person in ways they cant see, my firm isnt replacing retirements because they can be filled by AI. What was once a vital role has been downgraded to the point where it can be completed by an AI, their manager now handles the back office parts and AI escalationz which given their nature will reduce overtime. In a business unit of ~40 people 7 have retired without issue and there are no plans to replace the rest as they go.

I did see some work arounds for banking apps with harmony OS. I kight have another look.

There are barriers, I dont want AI or the crazy HDR processing but I do want a decrnt camera. I'd love a phone with hardware kill switches for loads of features.

Sorry I was mixed up, I dont trust Huawei one bit. I think they make great tech but I dont want them in my life.

Yes, its a mature market. We are likely at a point where a new competitor or innovation focused incumbent takes a swing at a new tech.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Like yeah its concerning no doubt, but imagining whatbthey ae doing without evidence while the main competition and market leader is a fascist cunt who disables functionality just before impact to shed blame and doctors mileage reports.

They get away with it because we are not better, if the competition was better they would have to meet them where they are.

 

Organisational Theory Thesis Survey

Hello, I am doing a thesis on organisational theory. I would appreciate as many responders as possible.

Survey here, shortened google forms link https://forms.gle/GqdmseDSVgdyUy7FA

 

I have to say I am not enthused but here we are. Why is nothing centralised? Calendar in outlook, calendar in teams and no specific calendar app to have open in a tab all day.

My query for now, how do I set up an out of office in my calendar. In google it was click, out of office, toggle to reject new or existing meetings and save. I try it in outlook calendar and it ooen viva insights, I do it on there and try to open the app fully but it is just stats and no out of office tab or setting.

Everything is hidden.

 

Hey! So I have always wanted to make the jump to linux and pc gaming and figured I would do them both together. I would not consider myself techy, just aout tech literate in that I am aware of how much I dont know.

I have linux mint, on a mid to late i5 w/16gb memory. I wanted initially to make a home server but I have jusy been poking around and ended up trying to play all the games I have in attic through emulators and the like.

So I got loads of emulators, I use Cartridge which is a Lutris fork. It just seemed cleaner and worked when I tried it out. In that I had been booting into PCSX2 and finally playing MK Deception again. After three evenings poking and gaming PCSX2 shuts down every time I try to boot a game.

I have uninstalled, reinstalled and changed from 1.7.xx to 2.2 to the nightly 2.3 (I think). I cannot get it to work.

I have so many questions but if I could get back to Konquest I would be so happy, and bother you all later.

 

Hey,

I recently made the jump to linux. I wanted to sart PC gaming and figured I would start as I mean to go on.

I am having an issue with getting my ps5 controller connected. Steam recognises it, everything mapped fine. I open pcsx2 and it thinks its a dualshock 2. I cannot get it to work in game. I have remapped and everything but when I get to a menu, the D pad will work but selecting an option won't.

Any advice appreciated.

 

Can someone please tell me why the gmail android app does not allow for this? Is there some system condition that disables this feature. It is surely related to android becuase iOS has signature matching.

Google owns every step of this.

 

I an lost with what to wear to my wedding. It is a summertime lakehouse venue and I am thinking 100 different things.

Half of me wants to stand out that bit extra and get a dinner jacket/tux. Or else a three piece mismatched set, like matching waistcoat and pants with a different colour jacket.

The other half wants simplicity with a two piece and suspenders.

I like three pieces because they keep you looking together throughout a long day and night.

I am mostly against check patterns and am leaning toward greens like sage or emerald with cream but open to options. Happy with earth tones or natural colours.

 

I need to get up without waking the wife and kids, I got a smartwatch to vibrate and it woke her. The alarm is always going to wake the house.

Is there anything else?

 

I watched beautiful Kate years and years ago, my first Mendo movie, and I loved the music. I used to listen to the main theme and "this little Bird" on YouTube but the latter has been removed from everywhere I've searched.

If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it.

 

I check the spec and it has a wifi chip but the os can't see it.

I had a wifi toggle on windows 11 when I got the PC and also when I used a mint USB boot. Driver manager sees nothing to update or install.

The mint community page has failed to post my question a few times so now I'm here.

 

I want to get a sync box but they are not 4k120. The FancyLEDs box only has one input meaning I can't use a PS5 and set top box or Apple TV.

Any advice or successful set ups?

 

I am looking for speakers, decent quality and nice looking that doesn't stand out too much. I want it on a bookshelf in the kitchen and another in the sitting room.

I want it to connect to a home server but also Spotify/streaming. And I'd like them to link together.

Basically I want the house listening experience to be seamless when going between different rooms, 2-4 speakers. Audiobooks and some music would be stored on a Nas and most music and podcasts would be Spotify.

I'd prefer to interact with it through my phone, Android if possible but not completely necessary.

In my head I imagine walking into a new room and tapping the speaker with my phone to switch to that speaker.

Is this a real thing?
