Ah yeah, lesswrong. The "human biodiversity", crypto scam, and polycule murder cult people. Why anyone would take those clowns seriously is a mystery to me.

That's just what you have to do to get any kind of performance in Haskell because functional programming is pointless.

Is it? I think the comical Euro response to the Nordstream sabotage showed what a joke the continent is.

Yeah it wasn't murder, the tomahawks were just meant to tickle them. We didn't know they had a deadly bomb allergy. Moron.

Well, we ditched books for Google with unknown consequences. Let people work how they want.

France, US/Italy, France/England, Switzerland/England, US, England, US, US, US.

Incredible international representation...

They're giving themselves cover for when they want to and do strike something Chinese (already done after all, they bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade).

Now they can just say it was a "AI mistake" and point to this as having happened again (but this time "it slipped through", like the girls' school in Iran)

> AI is becoming part of how people experience the web every day. We want to make sure that doesn’t mean people are chained to one company’s self-serving pipeline.

Ah yes, the extremely diverse offering of OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Microsoft, and Mistral (a fake "euro" chatbot). Mozilla is truly a "people's" company.

Like Gates saying there should be UBI, or Musk saying... well, whatever.

They know it won't happen, so arguing for it is 'effectively free' and purely personal marketing.

A bullshit game played by politicians and wannabes.

This is some schizo thinking. People you interact with online almost certainly aren't bots or paid.

Thunar is very fast compared to Nautilus.

Put a sticker with a unique ID on parts.

The primary problem is the cost of drives now IMO.

I've got 16tb drives (in a usb-c DAS, not NAS), and at 2-3 the price that I bought them for I don't plan to replace them when they go.

The data will just be lost, like tears in rain.

Yeah, I don't get it. I think nothing is about the same as getting a generic "unfortunately" email.

And I actually prefer nothing to unsolicited feedback. I don't give a shit about what someone who can't even spell principal thinks about me.

I'd take all of this with a cup of salt due to law enforcement's use of parallel construction in tech cases.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

My thinkpad x61 from 2007 runs the latest Ubuntu and software

edit: and has the same amount of ram as the mac neo.

The scam was that the US needed private industry to bootstrap technology that's mostly going to be used for surveillance analysis and building kill matrices.

Not really? If you're caught with burglary tools on private property that's still illegal even if you only took one step.

Likewise if act in a way that makes someone feel that you're going to hit them that's assault regardless of whether you actually ever touch them.

etc. Many such cases.

Next servers might need more power or different cooling. Then your DCs are just big concrete rooms.

RIP. I really liked the Hyperion books and Ilium/Olympos. He seemed to become a bit of a chud after 9/11 but the books are still well worth reading.

One thing I haven't seen CRT shaders really replicate is the brain-melting flicker that comes with that technology. LCD was such a relief when it became common.

That's how it works in the UK

There doesn't really seem to be anything interesting about this.

Also while the US plug makes some pretty compact power adapters, the effect is largely ruined in the EU and UK with their wider more cumbersome plugs.

Google makes an extension for it - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/rss-subscription-ex...

You can link it to your reader so you just click the button and it adds the feed into it.

Did the UK banning RT.com improve my quality of life?

Man the Washington regime really has a hard on for North Korea. Somehow they're simultaneously

starving to death and being mass-murdered by the inhuman fatso god-king

but also shrewd hackers magically infiltrating western tech companies for remote work

If you believe that you'll believe anything.

I mean that chatbots might have an easier time working with terminal output with the standard prompt rather than one that has your battery, weather, git branch and aws account in it.

It's just an idle thought though.

Like most customization and command replacements (like the fancy greps, ls's, etc), I've stopped using fancy prompts because I log in to lots of systems over the day and most of them won't have my prompt and this causes annoyance.

Also I have a theory that it lowers chatbot performance if you're copy pasting terminal output.

So on the site itself it says

Agile prices can spike up to 100 p/kWh any time - although a typical household in Winter '22-'23 paid around 35 p/kWh average.

so that's even more than I'm paying. This seems to only make sense if you have some sort of intelligent battery system.
