Google is testing a new CAPTCHA that asks you to make hand gestures on camera
15h 21m ago in technology from cybernews.comMaybe google's internet. But not the whole thing.
OK, so how does this work for things without cameras? They exist, I am using one right now. Does it just fail, does it default to another method?
Who could have seen it coming?

Commodore announces Linux-based flip phone with ‘no social media, no browser’ — the Callback 8020 will be available in five retro colorways starting at $499, runs 99% of Android apps
1d 8h ago in linux@lemmy.ml from www.tomshardware.comNo browser is wild. And what does that even mean here? You have to run everything by app now? That sounds like ass.
What is the point of it being linux if it just runs "99% of android apps" but no browser?

1d 11h ago in me_irl from lemmy.todayOh your in no way bothering me, I too like doing that. And at least her character was interesting, unlike a lot of characters (extra for woman characters) lately. I might be angry at her antics on screen but at least the show got me feeling something.
Oh she makes sense as written, not going to deny that, at the same time I don't have to like her character.
I guess my take away is that its a big deal whenever she is not aggressively nasty. She is a pivotal character, but not one I could like.
America has lost its war with Iran
1d 13h ago in politics from www.independent.co.ukThey won the opening act, and the operation was one of the best ever pulled off but they lost the overall conflict when they had to abandon Iraq. Although Gulf War 1 and 2 are studied as examples of great execution of a military strike campaign. The issue is that unlike the Gulf Wars where the us did strikes then claimed the win (with some oil set on fire), in 2003 they did the strikes, then stuck around. The us never wins in a conflict where they have to hold conquered ground, they are really bad with it. I can't think of a time they have succeeded, WW1 and 2 they did not have to hold territory alone, and more or less liberated and joint occupied places, in Korea they fucked up and got China involved leading to a never ending conflict that is still technically going, they got their ass kicked out of Vietnam, Bay of pigs was a failure before it really got anywhere, and then there is Afghanistan a total mess.
The wild part to me is that a lot of these conflicts are listed as US wins, or inconclusive when by any real measure they where all massive fuck ups. This last one with Iran did not even get to a point where the US was even getting to the point they where threatened Iran's government, let alone an occupation. Like it was not even possible for the states to get to the point of prior wars before, no real way to invade and not just have massive losses, no real way to hurt Iran outside of war crimes (they did those too but to little effect on Iran's ability to rule). This "war" I think was more impactful as the end of the us empire's mythos, they just showed the world they have very real limits and are no longer the super power they have claimed to be.
If by different you mean the loss of american war ships and the same result, sure.
Not saying those are not capable ships, just that that is not the environment they where made to operate in. A nightmare theater for any navy, let alone one with almost no small escort ships (an issue they are well aware of). To make it worse there is nothing for them to do, nothing to really fight there, just risk, mines, minisubs, and land based death. I can see an destroyer in that strait intercepting missiles and drones all day, but to what end? No civilian tanker was going to join them.
