It's all pure CEO bullshit though, and none of it is real.

It doesn't cost money to send a Bluetooth signal from your phone to a sous vide. Maybe the WiFi server costs money but it's their own fault for adding stupid functionality that phones home.

I've got one of these and I'm prepared to bet money that almost all of their server costs come down to every recipe in the app just being a link to a web page with lots of photos. https://recipes.anovaculinary.com/

(Swiss)Germans are completely mad about food.

It's their culture to complain about everything, except food. All they care about is that it's as bland as possible and has big portions. If you manage that, they'll give you five stars every time.

I spent 3 years living in Germany, and not only can you not get anything spicy for love nor money, they also don't use herbs. It just blows my mind. They're physically so close to France and Italy, but the food is so far away.

Yeah, that's because there's an entire cottage industry of people scraping old bug reports, and linter errors to create CVEs they can sell to customers worrying about security. It creates a huge number of false positives. E.g. see https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2023/08/26/cve-2020-19909-is-everything-that-is-wrong-with-cves/

I think any measure that is looking at a raw count is going to be meaningless. Particularly, comparing raw counts between open and closed software.

That's the neat thing. The policy is also dumb shit.

The way these big firms work is they make a bunch of almost contradictory arguments and you have to show they're all false in order to win the law suit.

So it'll look like:

  1. I didn't do it.
  2. Even if I did do it you can't prove it was me.
  3. Even if you can prove it was me I wouldn't be liable.
  4. Even if I was liable this has to be settled by arbitration.

So you have to get through arguments 4 and 3 first, to show that it's worth the court trying to find out what happened. Then they'll fight you tooth and nail on points 1 and 2 later.

This is super exciting.

I was looking at other handholds, and it just came down to the fact that it doesn't matter how good the hardware is, windows isn't a good choice for a handheld and I had to get a steam deck.

For breaking news stories, the website might keep updating the pictures.

Lemmy presumably goes to the website, and downloads a relevant image to use as a thumbnail. Then the writers update the article images.

One of the important things in many kinds of meditation is it's not about stopping the bees, but noticing them.

I remember hearing about some Buddhist monk who was famed for his meditation. Someone asked him how long he could sit before his mind wandered "oh about seven seconds normally". He just got very good at noticing when his mind wandered and trying again.

But I'm not sure how open it really is.

It seems to have Reddit disease where the people that run the site are trying to make money off the free user contributions.

Komoot is another one that clearly is commercial but based on user contributions. https://www.komoot.com/

The problem is that Tesla is a meme stock. It's stupidly overpriced for a car company with such little production.

They could get rid of musk and try to turn it into a normal company with solid fundamentals but this would remove its meme status and crash the share price anyway.

There's no way to fix Tesla without burning it's stock price to the ground, so anyone involved is just going to try to ride the crazy train as long as possible.

Come on Elon, make the Cybertruck 2 and really fuck everything up.

Yeah anything responsible that reports and corrects mistakes made in past reporting gets a low score for factual accuracy, when these should be getting the highest scores.

It's completely backwards.

Lots of people still split latex documents into one section per file, because subversion used file locks and we only knew how one person could edit a file at a time.
