So I never saw the 2020 series Space Force. But this clip[0] about Windows updates just happened into one of my feeds today and I was physically bowled over laughing. I must have watched it a half dozen times in rapid succession.

I suspect I'm just one of today's lucky 10,000 and everyone else here is already in on the joke, but I can't not share.

Thanks for the tip, I'll search it out.

It just reinforces the problem -> https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47615490

Those were great to watch, thanks!

Also, I can't help but feel like I'm watching a young Dr. Emmett Brown.. Great Scott!!

It's worse than that. On my corporate mac when I try to login with Entra, the only option I get is a hyperlink to 'experience Copilot on the web'.

Also, it seems like all the Copilot 'connected experiences' are really just a chat window without any real integration with the applications they are embedded in. Claude is more useful in Excel than Copilot.. how? Microsoft's consistently incoherent and hobbled rollout of Copilot is why I find Anthropic's offerings so much better. It just allow me to get stuff done.

My one hope was that Copilot would solve the Microsoft documentation tarpit by leveraging enormous context to root out the answers to my questions. When chatGPT can finally one-shot Microsoft product queries with the correct platform, release, license, and 'gotchas'.. I'll know we've hit AGI.

This is what so few people realize. Size is relative viewing distance and pixel density. Small screens are designed to be viewed at decreased focal distances, making you more cross-eyed.

Apologies for the sarcasm. I appreciate the drive for renewables the current AI DC buildout brings with it.

I have real fears that building materials will experience the same inflationary pressures computer memory is currently experiencing. The U.S. TSMC and Intel fab construction alone in the last couple years has had an outsized impact on building costs.

First there was the rampocalypse. Then there was cementpocalypse. Let just hope the AI datacenters don't latch on to biofuel to supplement their energy requirements. It's just more profitable for farmers to sell calories to the AI overlords, the consumer food market is just a low margin grind.

Its hard to keep this smile off my face

If you hope for a hand full of do, you win(doze?)

I put things on top of my vertical fridge all the time. Also, how do you access a chest fridge with items sitting on top of lid?

It's the worst OS we have.. except for all the others.

No need to hypothesize, just take a look around

The whole point is that the law is not such that "owner is guilty regardless". This is the weaponization of bureaucracy to maximize profit. The cost to issue a legally dubious citation is substantially less than the cost to refute it. It also happens to fall afoul of the right to due process, as realized by the state of Florida.

I've had the great privilege of working remote for quite a while. Unless I have an early flight to catch, I don't set an alarm. I tend to wake up within 60 min. of sunrise regardless of the season and fall asleep somewhere around T-8 hrs.

I can't tell you how much I'd dread having to be violently aroused from my slumber on an ongoing basis.

That's what I'd be afraid of

Same here; tickets always include the photo of the driver. If the photo is unclear or differs from the registered owner, tickets are easily dismissed.

However, I agree with Florida on this; the onus should be not be on the accused to prove innocence after a citation is issued. Feels like a 'call us to unsubscribe' time-wasting dark pattern.

In the spirit of HN, I humbly submit the FOSS (Free and Open Source Sauce) alternative to Siracha:

I just discovered the other day the hugging face allows you to do exactly this.

With the caveat that you enter your hardware manually. But are we really at the point yet where people are running local models without knowing what they are running them on..?

> dump a large payload into Claude's filesystem and let him figure it out

I just realized I never thought of Claude as ‘him’, usually I think of Claude as ‘it’..

If you're going full CLI on macOS, I've had the best experience with:

    brew install podman

Podman manages the linux vm for you automatically.

I've come to enjoy podman more than docker on my linux hosts anway; the default runtime (crun) is lighter than docker (runc), podman-kube-play is great for managing multi-container pods and is compatible with kubernetes. It also integrates very neatly with systemd. Of course there is the whole daemon-less and rootless side of the things as well..

> 30% of people simply lack the ability to reason

While I’m sure it’s more than 0%, seems more likely that somewhere between 0% and 30% don’t feel obligated to give the inquiry anything more than the most cursory glance.

How do incentives align differently with LLMs?

Great. First ram goes through the roof, and now china has kung-fu robots. 2026 is going great.

This will help me navigate the great AI golf ball shortage of 2026.

Where I shop, rotisserie chickens are 1/2 the price of a raw whole chicken..

Is the largest produced (by volume) source of animal protein in the US considered a luxury item?

“Pies” is Spanish for feet, which was my second reading after seeing the pronunciation. The first was in reference to round baked deserts.

All but those few sane people would agree!

No claims of longevity or quality are under litigation; It was merely informed speculation on The ultimate diet pill that only the Maya people knew..

Corn, beans and squash. Everyday. Oh, you have to grow it and harvest it without tractors. Caloric balance achieved!

A cursory search of the web shows that TCO for EVs in the US is higher than ICE for all but high mileage commuters. Wish it wasn't the case, but insurance alone is a 30% premium.

wait until you see cock mail

Been lusting after a 76 cruiser since I got my license. Settled for a first gen taco in the early aughts. It's been from Cabo to Dawson and back again twice and is still only half way through it's useful life..
