Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Dark mode’s bright future: How dark mode will transform Wikipedia’s accessibilityEnglish11·1 year agoNot a 3rd party thing. It has been a wiki setting opened up with login for a long time now. Maybe it had some tweaks needed that finally got completed?

Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk says SpaceX HQ officially moving to Texas, blames new CA trans student privacy lawEnglish17·1 year agoFor the inevitable report the mods will get: this is directly quoting Elon Musk accusing a volunteer trying to save lives of paedophilia just for disagreeing with him.
Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Firefox added ad tracking and has already turned it on without asking youEnglish61·1 year agoThat and the pages that don’t work are trying to force a fingerprinting/tracking technique you shouldn’t want to allow anyways.
Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Firefox added ad tracking and has already turned it on without asking youEnglish6·1 year agoI hate to break it to you, but the character limit being integrated into the UI is inconsequential against the general preferences of humankind. Your 3 paragraph, well thought out statement is already too long to garner the upvotes a 2 word post will get in reply regardless of how good a post it is.

Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comBanned from communityto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•A Gen Xer's Thoughts on Strange New WorldsEnglish331·2 years agoThe show is just good TV. The acting is good. The music is too. The writing is very good to the point they are confident enough to push limits, get meta, and rebuff the audience’s expectations while still consistently delivering. Even the least of the episodes is well worth the watch even if it is just the once.

Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Meta blocking news links as legislation backfires; X is suedEnglish171·2 years agoIt’s not a dumb law. Musk’s quote conveniently side-steps the truth. The way it was: Search/social media website provided pointless links to the news source while stealing the news and publishing it itself and earning all the ad revenue. Original news source: starved.
The way the law should have worked (and will as soon as Meta and X’s greed corrects itself): Search/social media websites provide link to news provider and gains ad revenue as normal. News provider actually gets visits to read their news and also earns ad revenue.

Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Light-based “LiFi” is stunningly fast, notably fragile—and now standardizedEnglish0·2 years agoYou know this whole post is doing absolute wonders for demonstrating exactly how reliable this particular Community apparently is. Seriously, posters linking articles with blatant ignorance of the subject matter, defending that choice (and their choice to link it demonstrating their lack of knowledge on the subject matter too), getting crazy up-votes from people who obviously don’t know any better and then your comment of ‘muh, Science vs Technology is an arbitrary distinction and totally not something where both rely on each other intimately’.
[Slow clap] thanks guys. Good to know if I ever need to cite how unreliable this community actually is I’ll forever have this exquisite reference.

Nah, there are many news sites that post corrections. This one was just so blatantly egregious that they had to put a stop to it before their entire corporation became a laughing stock. This isn’t just a ‘news site’. It is a Technology News Site. They had one job and they f’d it up. They shouldn’t even be hiring writers without a science degree let alone one that flunked highschool science.
Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Light-based “LiFi” is stunningly fast, notably fragile—and now standardizedEnglish0·2 years agoLight is almost certainly the fastest thing around. So it makes sense that “light-based wireless communications,” or LiFi, could blow the theoretical doors off existing radio-wave wireless standards, to the tune of a maximum 224GB per second. [Edit, 2:40 p.m.: It does not make sense, and those doors would remain on each rhetorical vehicle. As pointed out by commenters, radio waves, in a vacuum, would reasonably be expected to travel at the same speed as light. Ars, but moreso the author personally, regrets the error. Original post continues.]
JFC is this really where you want to get your technology data from? Authors that clearly have no grasp of even the basest fundamentals in the physics involved? Really?

It either needs way more work, or is more advanced than I can comprehend. 😂
This post makes me sad because I’m not a programmer and I don’t even know what the difference is. I just want a hug but apparently I’m ineligible.
Nice try Nigerian Prince, but I’m not clicking your link.
