It’s often used as a threat, without specifying the threat, do this, or else!

I worked on a GIS system in a german speaking company, it was very confusing, it was mostly programmed in english, apart from the things we we’re modelling, which had extremely specific and often long german names.

I think appointing people who absolutely should not be doing the jobs they are appointed to is a way of sidestepping all law. They want to destroy all government and what better way to do it than through sheer incompetence with a layer of plausible deniability.

There are other theories of course.

Any public transport initiative that in any way inconveniences a car driver gets hate in the UK

As a child we had a duck that would come nest in our garden for many years, it was really quite friendly, and would come up the patio doors every morning to beg for some food, didn't seem to be afraid of us. She would have her little ducklings follow her around the garden until they eventually went off to some lake not too far away.

Our cats were absolutely terrified of it.

"It wasn't me, it was the AI!" I suppose is now the default fallback excuse when you screw up.

It was to Mojave, and downgrading was a whole task in itself, apple really did not want me to do it.

Trump and doge once fired all the nuclear inspectors.

I recently downgraded one of my macs so i could use some 32 bit audio peripherals. You can’t update safari separately from the os i found out, and most websites now just won’t render with that os and if they do, barely work. I installed firefox and that was fine.

OTH, i use safari on my other mac, it’s fine most of the time, but i also have have chrome installed as some websites are so buggy otherwise, linkedin is a particular culprit, it barely works on chrome too.

Will ac fix all the other things that come along? Like, extreme weather, droughts, flooding?

Chromecast used to support streaming from the casting device, i make an app that used to use it. Sadly they no longer support that feature. Having everything on your device allows considerable more freedom.

I've been making an app similar to this but for pedestrians. I live in a very hilly city, and google maps will give you the shortest distance between 2 points, but that may involve climbing and descending steep hills even across short distances.

Any savvy resident however knows the location of escalators, lifts and metro stops to bypass that, and all have different allowed times of access and operation.

How do you propose to end the war without negotiations?

I think it’s true for a lot of BBC shows, many had great music, but the BBC also ran hugely popular radio stations and i think it was through that they were able to license a large amount of music.

I’d say they turned the whole administration into the circus as they’re running it like a reality tv show

I switched to LibreOffice just recently, but only because i’d been happy with OpenOffice for years and only recently decided to see if there was an update and found out it had been discontinued in 2011.

It was still working fine for me tbh, but i thought better to update to something newer.

I think they’re only happy when they can control what will be released.

I do wonder if perhaps LLMs take credit from some mathematicians working in obscurity in some dark corner of the web, it’s not unheard of for some to be reclusive. Perhaps someone completely unaware that they might have sovled something someone else considers important.

Ahhh, i had that with my ps5 and a couple of games were terrible in hiqh quality graphics mode, shutting down the ps5, and then through hdmi, would turn off the tv.

Both games weren’t particularly intensive, the one i remember last was divinity original sin 2, but i think both games ran on unity.

Performance mode mostly fixed it, but blowing out several years of dust from the vents properly sorted it out.

Most tvs now come with auto off kou have to cancel with a button press, prob just that.

Normally they show a warning, but i just got a new tcl, and it’s warning is very short leading to shutdown if you don’t pause quick enough to reset it

You think there wasn’t right wing toxicity before?

But it’s still supporting a man who’s a toxic as they come and working hard to distort reality and undermine democracy, you won’t wash that toxic off.

Adding to this, i think llms are just part of their game, they know well enough they aren’t accurate, but it plays into comments like this, where we’ll think an llm would make a smarter decision, but it’s just a smokescreen, they’re already looking at gaming the bots, musk trying to get grok to abide by his petty worldview is the most obvious ploy. But they’re already obfuscating sources of information as a matter of course, soon, we won’t know anything anymore, we’ll have to trust their machines.

They did though, an llm filter is just as dumb. Don”t they have those interviews with the edgelord doge employees trying to justify the stuff they killed?

It’s the usual stuff, they shut down speech on all sorts of topics, like the superiority of white christian men over everyone else

Ah jeez, that makes me feel old. It’s particularly impactful as my dad worked in the computer industry at the time of the transition and the firm he worked for were a little late to the game. They limped on for years but ultimately failed.

My first pc ran CP/M

Here’s an earlier article from another leftist site https://www.theguardian.com/society/2013/apr/25/mmr-scare-an...

Well that’s just not true, anti vax has always been a theme of the far right, infowars and i’m sure others have a long history of it.

The left wing libs types are far more recent, and i would lump them more in with the wellness brigade.

Better is subjective here i think, what about laying some nice stripes or diamonds? How do you work in some aesthetics and still stay efficient?

I had a night out once and drank far, far too many vodka redbulls, felt awful for days afterwards, since then, just a wiff of an energy drink makes me feel nauseous.
