Can anyone help me understand why Hasan Piker is so popular in leftist political spaces? - Lemmy.World
This guy’s dad is the former VP of a multibillion dollar Turkish conglomerate,
as well as the secretary of a government department. Mom and Dad were able to
fly to their other home in NJ to give birth so he’d get US citizenship. His
uncle is the founder and owner of TYT Media and gave him his media career. He
went to Rutgers. He lives in a multimillion dollar mansion in the Hollywood
Hills. This is by definition not the kind of person who can be a voice of the
People. Saying “I recognize my privilege” over and over, while living his
lifestyle, doesn’t negate his privilege and complete lack of real-life
experience outside of the curated garden of the wealthy. He gets paid obscene
amounts of cash to sit in his bedroom and word-vomit for 9 hours a day. Why are
his unending opinions taken so seriously? He gives me strong controlled
opposition vibes.

FUTO Keyboard Swipe Typing accuracy improvement - deGoogled keyboard for Android needs your help - Lemmy.World
If you use the privacy respecting Gboard alternative called FUTO keyboard,
you’ve probably noticed that the built in swipe typing is HOT GARBAGE. (Typing
this currently with two thumbs for this exact reason.) Most keyboards improve
their swipe algorithms by simply spying on you and logging your typing data.
FUTO isn’t about that, so they have built a simple webpage based typing game
that you can use to improve their system in an ethical and voluntary manner!
Just swipe the website’s keyboard to type a provided sentence. I love this, they
can crowdsource the improvement without invading privacy! Share with any
relevant communities you’re a part of. The more data, the better this gets.
Framework 13 AMD: Due for a refresh?

Framework 13 AMD: Due for a refresh? - Lemmy.World
I’m curious about when we might see the next AMD refresh for the Framework
Laptop 13. The current top-spec option is the Ryzen 7 7840U, which was
introduced in early 2023 and started shipping in Q3 2023. Given AMD’s latest
offerings and Framework’s history of timely updates,soon we might expect to see
a new mainboard featuring AMD’s newer CPUs, like those from the Ryzen 8040
series or the upcoming Ryzen 9000 series. - Ryzen 7 7840U: - Architecture: Zen 4
- Cores/Threads: 8/16 - Base/Boost Clock: 3.3 GHz / 5.1 GHz - TDP: 15-28W -
Integrated GPU: Radeon 780M Potential New CPUs: - Ryzen 8040 Series: Higher base
and boost clocks, improved power efficiency, and enhanced RDNA 2 or RDNA 3
integrated graphics. - Ryzen 9000 Series: Zen 5 architecture, up to 16 cores and
32 threads, improved AI processing capabilities, and better power efficiency.
Framework has consistently updated its laptops with the latest Intel and AMD
CPUs, so it seems we might be due for a refresh soon. What are your expectations
for the next AMD mainboard refresh?

Embedded viewer for YouTube videos? - Lemmy.World
I was a long-time subscriber to Sync For Reddit, until the great third party app
purge last year when I just boycotted Reddit altogether. Now, a year later, I’m
looking to fill that content hole with Lemmy, and stumbled across Sync For
Lemmy. I love it! The one functionality I miss from SFR was the embedded player
for YouTube videos. It seems that YouTube links will open only in the YouTube
app or the external web browser. Is there a plan to reimplement the built-in
player?
