sue_me_please@awful.systemsto News@lemmy.world•Women and LGBTQ+ people take up guns after Trump’s win: ‘We need to protect ourselves’English2·5 months agoEasy to say when you aren’t facing the threat of bias intimidation or hate crime by recently emboldened bigots, things that actually happen unlike the caravan paranoia.
sue_me_please@awful.systemsto TechTakes@awful.systems•Whoops! Google, Copilot, Perplexity push scientific racism in search resultsEnglish3·6 months agoI wish I could agree, but we’re all AI fodder. AI companies will spend us and anyone who disagrees can get fucked because money. The ownership class is going to milk this for every damn cent until they get their returns, and if that means more murder-suicides in that pursuit, well then buckle up.
sue_me_please@awful.systemsto News@lemmy.world•Texas AG sues doctor who allegedly provided transgender care to 21 minorsEnglish1·6 months agoLook at the stats, fentanyl has always been rarely prescribed and even more rarely prescribed compared to other opioids. The fentanyl crisis is a crisis of economics: there is less profit to be made in creating, smuggling and selling other opioids compared to fentanyl.
If you want to be accurate, doctors prescribed non-fentanyl opioids in situations where they weren’t needed, often illegally, when those prescriptions ran out, that caused a heroin crisis. That heroin crisis became a fentanyl crisis when drug dealers stopped selling heroin in favor of the cheaper and much stronger fentanyl.
sue_me_please@awful.systemsto News@lemmy.world•Texas AG sues doctor who allegedly provided transgender care to 21 minorsEnglish1·6 months agoDoctors aren’t prescribing, nor are they they source of, illicit fentanyl. The ease of synthesis means that clandestine labs can make a shit ton of the stuff, it’s that simple.

kvm
module and use something like QEMU to take advantage of it. I’d assume if you’re using QEMU then you’re using KVM by default.
sue_me_please@awful.systemsto Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn LinuxEnglish1·6 months agoYeah, you either need a separate GPU or a iGPU/dGPU that supports SR-IOV. Some Intel iGPUs support it, and allow you to make virtual GPUs that can be pass-through`ed to VMs.

sue_me_please@awful.systemsto Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn LinuxEnglish191·6 months agoDifferent OSes for different use cases. You have a job to do. Just use Windows.
If you want to use Linux, use it on your own machines on your own time.
That said, there are a few things you can do if you really want to use Linux:
- Test if the app works on Wine, Proton, etc. Even GPU accelerated apps can work, depending on the software/driver stack.
- Run a Windows VM and pass-through a GPU. That way you’ll get native performance on the app that’s GPU intensive. Use KVM and the CPU overhead will be negligible.
- If you’re doing 3D modeling/rendering, SFX, video editing or ML/AI, there are a lot of options on Linux. Some options that exist in Windows also have Linux versions.

Same thing with puberty blockers. Think we can trust doctors’ judgment when it comes to the drugs they prescribe.

This Is Genocide'English171·6 months agoYes, as everyone knows, if you accurately call out genocide when you see it, you actually want there to be genocide. You sick ghouls need to stop noticing genocide so I can go back to concern trolling in peace.

sue_me_please@awful.systemsto Linux@lemmy.ml•Google is preparing to let you run Linux apps on Android, just like Chrome OSEnglish8·6 months agoLooks like Google is calling it Play Integrity these days: https://developer.android.com/privacy-and-security/safetynet/deprecation-timeline
But it’s this: https://developer.android.com/google/play/integrity
It’s an API that ensures you’re running apps on the hardware and Android ROMs Google approves of. It can also ensure that apps are not running on rooted phones.
Developers can integrate it into their apps. Banking apps do it, for example, and won’t run in Waydroid as a result. More and more apps integrate it over time.
