  • This is some dystopian shit. I never cheated at a test and wouldn't even want to take a test under those dehumanizing conditions.

  • Pearson using all sorts of extremely invasive and questionable kernel-level access plugins to make sure people don't open notes to cheat on their test on their computer. People just open their notes on another device. Or, you know, paper.

  • I kinda like being able to watch a video on one screen and not having to make sure that there are no animations going on anywhere else or the video framerate drops like it's 1996.

  • Never buying milk from Walmart again

    Jump

  • To be fair, to most of those who are used to fresh milk find the taste of UHT milk off-putting, myself included. North Americans do tend to drink more milk too so they go through a bottle long before it goes bad.

  • Amazon making ‘significant’ cuts to games business, moving away from MMOs

    Jump

  • Onion article idea: Among rising prices in server costs, Amazon is moving away from addictive MMOs and is transitioning to manufacturing methamphetamines. "It provides the same result with less overhead cost"

  • Intel Panther Lake iGPU Supposedly Outperforms AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme [unverifiable "leaked 3DMark Time Spy ... 72% ahead of the APU"]

    Jump

  • My B580 runs all games I've been throwing at it just fine at smooth framerates and stability. As long as you don't care about ray tracing and resolutions above 1080p. I'd say it's perfectly mature for an entry level gaming GPU.

    Although I admit I bought it only because my old GPU died and I needed something ASAP but didn't want to pay a price that felt like highway robbery. I am still hoping for a reasonable mid-range GPU to eventually become available, even if it is a used one, just so I can upgrade to a 144K display and maintain smooth framerates.

  • Good if true. Intel needs a break because the last thing we need is another monopoly in an industry where creating competition from scratch is near impossible.

    I also hope they continue to upset the GPU market. The B580 is a huge break for those who want a usable gaming GPU that doesn't cost 4x what a GPU used to cost.

  • When a person gains weight and keeps the weight on for a long time, is that old fat in your body, or does the fat get replaced over time?

  • The Independent tries to hijack their reader's swipe meant to leave the site to send them further into it instead

    Jump

  • I shouldn't have to adjust my grip on my phone to change the way I swipe to exit the website because that website decided to replace a commonly used functionality to make it different for their website alone. I kid you not I almost didn't see that button because my thumb was naturally placed in front of it.

    There is already a way to make a gesture that navigates "previous" or "next" by swiping left or right. It is by swiping from the center of the screen outwards and it is how that website should have made that gesture work if they didn't want to interfere with Android navigation gesture users.

  • It is called Gestures Navigation and replaces the three button navigation. It is an available option in the settings if your Android version supports it. Some people don't like it, personally I prefer it except for that one time some asshole website tries to take advantage of it.

    Jump

  • On many Android phones swiping from the outside edge of the screen inwards either from the left or right edge, it behaves like you tapped the "back" button. It is extremely useful to get out of for example an article that was opened on Lemmy or simply navigating through menus on your phone.

    A swipe either left or right from the middle-ish of the screen is what you would expect to take you from the previous or next article. Not from the edge.
