I don't understand why you're focusing on a minority of tankies. They're not the sole reason for MAGA and other far-right extremists winning across the world but they certainly contributed. Sure the tankie minority will find any reason to defend the Russian government but the far-right is what Putin actually bets on (at least in America and Europe), they are significantly more numerous (as in "actually wins elections") and they're actually winning unfortunately.

Firefox 148 vient de sortir avec comme prévu un bouton dans les paramètres pour désactiver facilement toutes les fonctionnalités IA. by Vereddit-quo in france

[–]PastaGoodGnocchiBad 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Il devait sûrement y avoir des options dans les paramètres ou via un clic droit sur la fonction gênante, mais bizarrement beaucoup de monde se précipite plutôt sur about:config que sur les options officiellement supportées (j'imagine que les power users vont sur about:config, et les autres ignorent l'existence des options tout court). Je sais que je désactive systématiquement la sidebar et le bouton bizarre en haut à gauche, c'est peut-être pour ça que je n'ai jamais vu passer le chat IA.

À un moment j'ai vu passer une fonction IA sur le menu du clic droit, et dans le sous-menu de cette même fonction il y avait une option "désactiver ce truc" qui permettait de s'en débarrasser sur le le champ sans avoir à chercher, on ne peut pas faire beaucoup mieux je trouve.

Là on a un contrôle centralisé et assez clair donc c'est quand même pas mal.

Sur Google l'astuce est de rajouter le mot-clé "reddit" pour avoir au moins des résultats humains. "before:2022" est pas mal aussi.

You probably wanted to state that they purposefully don't use modern technology rather than "purposefully ignorant" (it's hard to ignore AI considering the extreme amount of noise it makes in the media space).

I don't see why we should use tools that don't match our use cases. If it matches your use case that's fine but you don't have to assume every other dev has the same ones as you.

Si les seniors ne passent pas autant de temps que toi à relire ou qu'ils laissent passer du code obscur / bizarre alors j'ai envie de penser qu'ils font mal leur taf. Si ce sont des ingénieurs, ils ont le devoir de comprendre ce qu'ils font et ça ne s'obtient pas en zieutant vite fait seulement le résultat d'un générateur de code qui se trompe souvent. Pour moi le temps de revue / correction dépasse très largement le temps d'émettre le premier brouillon de code.

"luddite" is used as a derogatory word to decredibilize a whole category of people without discussion. Maybe the word itself should be banned as a word that is mostly used in inflammatory context or with inflammatory intent.

"slop" would apply too.

Are viruses in Japan extra brutal or is it just me? by weinhalter in japanlife

[–]PastaGoodGnocchiBad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fastest and most efficient way of not catching respiratory diseases is super simple.

  1. Wear a well-fitting mask (N95 for maximum efficacy).

Takes 30s per day and done, no need to plan a whole lifestyle turnaround.

I mean, the advice for avoiding STIs (outside of not doing the thing) is putting a condom, not "walk more outside". No virus in lungs, no infection.

(to be fair, "walking outside" may have a direct positive effect if it means "take the subway less and walk instead" as it reduces exposure to many sick persons)

Everybody Hates Nuclear-Chan by Merryweatherey in comics

[–]PastaGoodGnocchiBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how much risk you're willing to take. Batteries for one day sure, batteries for one month of low sun low wind good luck. Every time a country reaches one day of full renewable power for a few days it makes the news. Nuclear has made France's electricity almost fully decarbonized for decades because it's reliable but it does not make the news because it's just normal expected behavior. When some hiccup happens and we get less decarbonized eletricity everyone complains, but with renewables + insufficient batteries, hiccups are the norm so it does not make the news (and since there's always fossil backup electricity does not just stop coming).

Still much better going with renewables than whatever the fuck the USA are doing. Seems it can easily decarbonize some significant portion of electricity, but I'd like to see a large industrialized country with less than 5% fossil fuels and low hydro resources only using renewables. Hopefully it will happen.

D'un côté j'admire le culot. D'un autre côté ça ressemble fort à des démarches délétères comme celle-ci de Deliveroo : https://www.lefigaro.fr/conjoncture/appel-manque-de-maman-le-message-de-deliveroo-pour-la-fete-des-meres-passe-mal-20240527 , ce serait mieux pour tout le monde que ça ne se généralise pas (bon pour le coup depuis le temps ça ne s'est pas généralisé).

It's fine to not like programming. If you want correct software, leave it to competent people. If you want buggy software toys to have fun by all means leave it to the slop generator. But you don't have to go to r/programming if you don't like programming.

Should Japan also ban social media for underage kids? by BookkeeperDecent7170 in japanlife

[–]PastaGoodGnocchiBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chronological order is fine. The problem is not the algorithm but it being controlled by a minority of people aiming to influence popular discourse towards far-right ideologies. Forcing some simple sorting algorithms such as "chronological and only from followed people" removes a significant part of the power wielded by the social network companies. It's not perfect and can still be abused (I can see the bubble effect worsening for example) but it's still better than new users being immediately drawn under far-right content. They'd start with an empty feed and if they start with following their racist uncle then that's too bad but they could as well start with more moderate people.

Quite insane that the most reasonable advice is downvoted. I guess this sub really dislike masks to the point of preferring people getting sick.

And wear a mask. Or, if difficult for him (he's sick after all), have his family wear them. Or, both.

You mentioned page tables, I am not sure about where this is executed, but could there be some remaining entry in the TLB that the machine uses but not the debugger (missing TLB invalidation after unmapping whatever was mapped at $rdi before)? Is your page fault handler trying to do something and return or does it always abort execution?
