World News@lemmy.world•Priest dies tragically after a cross falls on him during Mass in EcuadorEnglish
43·14 hours agoI’d like to be saddened by this, as death suddenly is always sad. That said, this is a Catholic priest. Given the track record, you have to wonder.

Technology@lemmy.world•"No More Hand-Written Code" - Epic Reportedly Adopts "AI First" Production Model On New Disney ShooterEnglish
2·4 days agoYeah I worked for a company that sold DSL in ATT and CenturyLink areas in the United States. We could also sell stuff with telephony from ATT, but we had some ancient agreement that let us sell DSL using their lines without telephone service. They were ordered in ATT’s system as “alarm circuits”. We also could run service 3x further out because of some old tech called ReachDSL. It was only 256k to 1.5M, depending on distance, but most of the people on it could only get dial up at the time, so this was the best they had available.
Those were indeed dark days.

25·4 days agoWhile I get what you’re saying, you don’t actually need POTS service on a copper line to have DSL work. I used to sell DSL circuits without telephony services in one of my first technology jobs. We’d order “dry circuits” and pipe data only through Copper Mountain or Paradyne branded gear (pretty sure both companies are dead now). Most telephone companies wouldn’t let you do this because they wanted to prop up POTS line sales, not because it was technically necessary.
They’re secretly skinwalkers

Games@lemmy.world•Why is the US receiving the short end for OoT pre-order bonuses?English
3·10 days agoAs an American, I wholeheartedly agree. I’m tired of voting against and protesting this shit and the people who push it seeing no consequences.
Fuck our shit up world. We deserve it.
I still have no fucking idea. That’s how annoying it is.
I’m 37. Did something to my back and have been stuck in bed for a week.
Yup.

News@lemmy.world•Miller Labels Leftists a “Cancer” That World Must “Root Out” in Fascistic Speech
01·3 months agoI have no problems accepting it. I literally said they’ll just “label any resistance as violence”. I just think it’s important not to “adjust” words to make what is already insane shit sound more insane. It’s already fucking nuts.

News@lemmy.world•Miller Labels Leftists a “Cancer” That World Must “Root Out” in Fascistic Speech
01·3 months agoIt’s important to point out that he said “Violent Left-wing groups”. It’s bad enough without embellishing, because they’ll just label any resistance as “violence”, but let’s not embellish the words like Republicans, please. It makes us look no better than those assholes.
As someone who grew up in a conservative, Baptist home, I can tell you that this 100% isn’t the most insane thing I’ve heard or seen, but it falls right in line.

News@lemmy.world•Gen Z is the first generation dumber than their parents, neuroscientist claims
2·8 months agoGen Z has a lot of shit stacked against them. I’m glad the article doesn’t go “blaming” Gen Z for “being dumber”, but instead is focusing on the fact it’s a parenting failure. COVID era learning difficulties, constantly being bombarded with tech designed to suck out their soul, AI being everywhere for their college age life, etc.
As a Millennial, I’ve seen the blame game. I only hope we come out of this spiral as a society.
