Bird flu? Human-to-human either isn't happening, or is extremely rare, can't remember.

For now. If it mutates to become more contagious without becoming less deadly, that becomes an everyone problem

For those selling AI, it'll get very competitive, and they can't charge hundreds or thousands of dollars anymore. It will be less profitable or not at all.

It is already not at all profitable. Competition will drive prices down, but probably not by as much as the efficiency increase. AI companies could go from having high prices and even higher costs to having low prices and even lower costs. Or they could go under, and be replaced by the competition.

This does the opposite of that. AI was already unprofitable; Deepseek's massive efficiency improvement ought to improve profitability

They're good for rough terrain, so ironically a tractor is one of the less silly things to make hover

kept the original on the floor of the back seat and before giving anyone a ride I'd pick it up and ask if it looked important

That's hilarious

 

Currently the 'Parent' button takes you to the top-level comment of the thread. Could it be split into two buttons, one of which takes you to the immediate parent comment?

 

Does anybody know of a list of usb live-bootable distros, with links to the download pages?

I have a coworker who wants to switch his gaming computer over to Linux, he has Linux experience but from like a decade ago.

He's not partial to any particular distro, so I was hoping to just put together a multiboot flash drive with a bunch of live images he could try. But I'm not sure what I should include, and what has live images, vs. install only images.

I'm most comfortable in an environment with apt, so Debian and Mint are of course already covered, but if the gaming-specific distros have live usb images, that would probably be the best thing for him to try.

If I'm injured and need a blood transfusion, where are paramedics most likely to go for the needle; is it the vein in my arm, same as for blood donation?

Wherever it is, if I get a tattoo noting my blood type, are you going to trust the tattoo and give me my blood type, or would you disregard it and go with O- just in case?

I'm getting some tattoo work done anyways, and I really like the idea of a Canadian Blood Services logo plus my blood type wherever paramedics would see it, but it's pointless if they won't believe it

 
 

When reading a web page within Connect, it would be nice if long-pressing on links in the webpage would give a popup with the option to open the link in an external browser (and probably also an option to just copy the link). I frequently find myself linked to Wikipedia from a Lemmy comment, and then want to open other links from that wiki page, so then I have to open the page I'm on externally and refind my spot in the article.

Having the same options when long-pressing a link in a comment/post would be nice as well.

Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)

~~Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.~~

~~Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?~~

 

The text when I try to type comments (but not the text in the search bar or, as I'm just now learning, here in the 'post body' text box) is white, and I can't find the setting to change it. Obviously I could change my background back to the default blue that it was, but that's the opposite of a solution.

Anybody know?
