2·24 hours agoThey say we’re to laugh at least 10 times a day.
Well on my way. Thanks for the laugh.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Trump, 79, Sparks Health Concerns With Bizarre SlurringEnglish
4·1 day agoHave they started to point that DEW they used on Biden and Kamala, on Trump now too?
All the better to feign incompetence with.
As was introduced to me (not sure if identical in USA), breaches of duty of care law fall under three categories: incompetence (not illegal, though you should lose your job), negligence (can be illegal), intentional (always illegal). So you can see why they try so hard to appear incompetent when they’re breaching their duty of care for us each and all. Lets them get away with murder.
I’ve never seen a more true tier list.
TempelOS?
… I just noticed… that says “TempelOS”.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•what kind of a n00b uses a text editor to edit textEnglish
2·1 day agoLOL. I forgot… that nearly always gets picked up on, and I should have pre-countered the comments.
It’s nztt, from my big tiny font collection (of tiny fonts I made).
It [nztt] works for my dyslexia, and for maximising/optimising vertical space (more rows on screen at once). It [nztt] has been my go-to font for near a decade since I made it.
It [nztt] seems to strongly split opinion. Sometimes it gets superlative praise, other times it gets baulked at.
Maybe next screenshot, I’ll
st -f "Fira Code:size=20:antialias=true:autohint=true"or something. Probably should… to not distract from fin.[ … Afterthought… Or maybe I’ll go the other way, and pick one of my other fonts… maybe even go straight to the extreme… “bf”. LOL. Maximally shrunk pixel font. Merely decipherable, not really readable.]

4·1 day agoNot far from the original start of the text editor I wrote in fish, as just a wrapper around similar commands.
fin (tech post) | fin (fish crosspost) | fin (codeberg) | fin (initial commit) | fin (branches) | fin (issues) | fin (video, lol), yt | fin (fun sizes comparison)
What kind of a noob writes their own text editor in fish?
PS, yet to add butterfly mode.

Are the first three distros that sprang to mind.

Technology@lemmy.world•Chatbots Make Terrible Doctors, New Study FindsEnglish
2·2 days agoI have Lex Fridman’s interview with [OpenClawD’s] Peter Steinberger paused (to watch the rest after lunch), shortly after he mentioned something similarish, about how he’s really only diffing now. The one manual tool left, keeping the human in the loop. n_n
Long live diff!
:D

Step 2:
‘Proportional representation’ could reduce polarization in Congress and help more people feel like their voices are being heard
(And of course, can break this step up into many other parts, many other different approaches to have it be accomplished. And of course, this is only a suggestion (which works reasonably well here where I am ~ still could be better)), one among many ways to improve that whole area… )

1·2 days agoHuman problems are complex and the medecine field is slowly catching up, especially medecine targetted toward women, which was pretty lacking.
Lacking for either sex. Even though they’re wrong any way, did you know the supplement RDA are all for women?
And… I’m not sure how much it’s really catching up, and how much it’s just reeling out just enough placatium to let the racket continue.
“For-Profit Medicine”'s an oxymoron that survives with its motto “A patient cured is a customer lost.”. … And a dead patient is just a cost of business. … No wonder “Medicine” is the biggest killer. Especially when you consider how much heart disease and cancer (and most other disease) is from bad medical advice too, thus making all 3 of the top biggest killers (and others further down the list) iatrogenic1.
It takes time to transform a system and we are getting there slowly.
We may be getting there so slowly as to take longer than the life of the universe, given how so much is still headed in the wrong direction away from mending the system, since seemingly all of the incentives (certainly the moneyed incentives) are all pushing the other way… to maximising wealth extraction, rather than maximising health. We’ve let the asset managers, the vulture capitalists, get their fangs into the already long time corrupted health care systems (some places more than others), and from here, we’ll see it worsen faster, perhaps to a complete collapse asymptote, as the rotters eat out all sustenance from within it.
1 “Induced unintentionally in a patient by a physician. Used especially of an infection or other complication of treatment”
Oh wow. You want a leader?
Can’t get there from here.
No plan, sounds good to me.
How about more people in the system realise that they too, even their bosses, and everybody, are better off with the technologies that can emancipate everybody get released, rather than suppressed as they are now. End this lost century or two.
More than just whistleblowers.
Once the genie’s out of the bottle, they cannot put it back in.

I recall patent office whistle blower Tom Valone, at energy conferences sometime between 2000 and 2005 iirc, stating something like, that, “by the year 2000 there have already been over 3000 free energy device patents secreted”. How much headroom do we have without the crooks holding us down, without us being hog-tied to their polluting and inferior technology metered for rents? … Y’know they can print gold, right?
Word of the day: Agnotology.
It’s a big industry. One so few know anything about. By recursive design.
PS, Bucky was right:
“We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living.” – Buckminster Fuller
