Hobo@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Greta Thunberg speaks before departure of flotilla carrying aid to Gaza [video]English4·13 days agoI’m confused cause that article says they already departed Barcelona after they had to turn around due to weather. Looks like the link was changed as well.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The vibecoders are becoming sentient23·26 days agoIt’s kind of hard for me to tell on this one. Maybe the boomer lead is seeping into my brain.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto science@lemmy.world•Dicing an Onion, the Mathematically Optimal WayEnglish3·28 days agoTried this method. Any recommendations for repairing a broken window and getting a cleaver out of my neighbor’s dead body? It’s, like, really stuck in there.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Neil Young Leaves Facebook & Instagram Over “Unconscionable” Policies for AI Chatbot Conversations With ChildrenEnglish2·28 days agoI’m sure he is still capable of shitting his pants and not showering.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Fewer young people are meeting these 5 milestones typically associated with adulthood7·29 days agoCompleting education is the 5th. From the census study linked in the article
…reaching five milestones of adulthood: living away from their parents, completing their education, labor force participation, marrying, and living with a child.
They also mention it later in the article:
The completion of education, another marker of adulthood, has overshadowed other milestones over the years as an increasing number of young adults enroll in college, according to the paper.

Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10English1·1 month agoI mean yeah that’s why I made the distinction in my comment… Without secure boot you’re still opening yourself up to a whole host of other attack vectors even if you have bitlocker enabled.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Butter made from carbon tastes like the real thing, gets backing from Bill GatesEnglish1·1 month agoAh gotcha! I for sure was not following what you were saying. I don’t know if that’s he real thrust of the point in my above comment, but I was more referring to the fact that artificial vanilla doesn’t necessarily come from vanilla beans. I should’ve been more precise with my language, but it’s worth noting that artificial vanilla is largely synthesized and comes from a variety of sources, not just vanilla beans (see below for the source/pertinent excerpt).
It also gets weird as to how the FDA regulates the term. I believe the key term is actually “Pure” in the “Pure Vanilla Extract” but don’t quote me on that. Not sure how it’s done by other regulatory agencies but it’s probably equally convoluted in a lot of places.
Pertinent excerpt:
However, many alternate routes to vanillin are well documented, including vanillin derived from spruce tree lignin, corn sugar, rice or wheat bran, clove oil, curcumin, or guaiacol.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10English23·1 month agoI’d argue that you now have two major issues. Someone breaking into a house and stealing a desktop isn’t unheard of. Full disk encryption with secure boot deployed will save you the headache of also having your identity/bank account/cc info stolen a few days later.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10English43·1 month agoOkay but you should enable secure boot on any device you want to keep any level of private data on. It’s trivial to break into a device that doesn’t have it enabled if you can physically access it. Laptops especially should have secure boot enabled.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Butter made from carbon tastes like the real thing, gets backing from Bill GatesEnglish11·1 month agoI don’t understand what this would be correcting in what I said above. Can you show me what part this is correcting? Cause I’m legitimately confused.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Cat soap operas and babies trapped in space: the ‘AI slop’ taking over YouTubeEnglish1·1 month agoI have missed this trend and I am hoping to never be caught by it. Even cartoon animals in distress fucks with me and I can’t imagine me sticking around long enough on a video to analyze it closely enough to see if it was AI slop or not. I can 100% guarantee I will get random flashes of it for several days if not longer after catching a glimpse of it though.
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Butter made from carbon tastes like the real thing, gets backing from Bill GatesEnglish31·1 month agoI think it’s worth pointing out that vanilla extract is from vanilla beans and artificial vanilla is whatever the fuck they feel like that tastes like vanilla. Also, modern artificial vanilla extremely rarely, if ever, is derived from Castoreum because it’s hard as hell to farm beavers and expensive as all fuck. The “artificial vanilla comes from beaver anal glands” is basically a prevalent internet myth that gets passed around like the, “You eat 7 spiders a year in your sleep.” myth.

Hobo@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•North Carolina parents arrested for letting their kid walk to the store. On his way home, he was killed by an SUV. The parents were charged with manslaughter.1·1 month agoYeah. I’m like minutes outside a major city and see these things in my backyard. I think they probably need to get their eyes checked or something…
Hobo@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffett’s Giving Pledge after 15 years: Only 9 of the 256 billionaires actually followed through on giving away half their wealthEnglish103·1 month agoThis is kind of the actual problem though. It’s hard to actually have effective charities. Even some of the most ethical, and well run charities, end up with surplus funds (Dolly Parton’s charity for example). The government is setup to spend that much money helping people though. But paying taxes is somehow bad and wrong. I don’t know if I had a real point other than maybe we should actually tax these rich folks so they can achieve their dream of giving away at least half their wealth.
