Sounds more like a tooling issue. The tech exists, the hardware can run it but the tools don’t exist to make it feasible in a reasonable timeframe/with a reasonably sized dev team. Corners are being cut on optimization or relying on hardware brute forcing it.

Ah, fair, yeah coded language was what I was getting at rather than lying, but you’ve put it better. Honestly, I think this is just saying the quiet part out loud, they don’t seem to care any more.

My point here is there’s no coded language - DEI is expressly about promoting minority groups. They are explicitly attacking that.

It needs to have a coded element to it, some people hear what’s really being said, some do not, like an actual dog whistle. There is no coded element here, it’s explicitly attacking gay, trans, women, basically any minority group because that’s expressly what DEI is about.

Dog whistling normally means saying one thing while meaning another, this is not that.

It’s not really a dogwhistle, DEI is diversity, equity and inclusion - they’re outright saying they don’t want diversity equity and inclusion.

Honestly I’d take the utilitarian approach to that, if it’s a net good, then I’m probably for it - but that’s a big if.

Thats a bit tame, first page of the British passport is:

“His Britannic Majesty’s Secretary of State requests and requires in the name of His Majesty all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford the bearer such assistance and protection as may be necessary”

Oi you, this is my mate and you’re going to look after him, alright.

Whoever the default is on my device.

I’d also imagine Google won’t be prevented from owning a browser indefinitely - if it’s still worth it they’ll create a new browser and try to recapture the market, further diversifying the market.

Alright Stallman, calm down.

I try not to be too Linux fanboish these days, but what in the ever loving fuck is that about? Windows sounds like it’s reverted to 90s/early 2000s novelty crap and browser toolbars.

Tbh I’ve only praise for any interactions I’ve had with British govt websites through government gateway.

Arch actually.

LASIK isn’t life long, it corrects your vision at the time, if your prescription changes the LASIK is no longer effective. It comes down to how long you can reasonably keep a pair of glasses without breaking them.

Of that era, it could well be capacitor plague.

Didn’t realise they had their own gTLD either!

Kinda surprised the BBC hasn’t done this already, they’re normally quite advanced with this kind of thing.

You’d be blocking half of Lemmy.

I’m running Ubuntu and never had an issue with 5120x1440 on a stupid big ultrawide AOC.
