What a bizarre comment. Do you really think Japanese people and anime fans find heavily-roboticized voices peasant to listen to for long periods of time?

I agree entirely here. Projects like this miss the point. Don't bother with being what will be an always imperfect macOS clone; just bother with making a good, usable system, adopting things from macOS which are good (universal menu ba

Microsoft sold ARM-powered versions of the Surface for a while (not sure if it was ARM64 at that point) and releases a version of Windows which runs on the Pi, so it's something they've showed interest in for a while. I'm gue

A while back I hammered out an idea I call KyuWeb, which specifies a document-based web using existing standards like HTTP and reinvents as few wheels as possible. I haven't had time/skill to hammer out a complete client implement

Ever seen the movie Snowpiercer? It was based on a comic called Le Transperceneige and they also more recently made a TV series about it, but I've only seen the movie and highly recommend it. It takes place on an Earth stuck in a plane

> Defamation/slander damages, past and future: $60 million That's not much of a breakdown, and if anything it seems to go against the idea that these dollar amounts aren't punitive. Are we supposed to assume that that part

If that's true, I'd love to see how exactly they calculated that.

I don't understand what you're saying. Are you saying that we shouldn't consider people as individuals when reading their CV because that's when unconscious bias may lead to their rejection? If the latter is true, then s

I notice that you only use the word “group” above and not “people” or some older word acknowledging that that’s what these groups are made of. Why judge people by the groups that were born into when we could be judging them as individuals i

The point isn't to have the kid write the essay about acid rain. The point is to teach the kid about acid rain and have them demonstrate an understanding of it. If the kid just turns in an AI-written essay that they may not have even r

But what about when the Wikipedia consensus is quite far from reality? If your only source for most or all of your information is Wikipedia, you will never know.

Yes, back before I lost faith in the project. I actually initiated some somewhat-notable articles such as those on Tank Man (the Tiananmen Square protester) and traditional ("hand-drawn") animation. Most of my more recent contribu

Is it just me or is the Ubuntu font really hard to read for long-form text? It doesn't help that it's larger than normal body text too. Sites like this remind me that custom fonts in CSS were a mistake. On topic… calling switching

Just the normal Podcasts app on iOS. It was good and then they broke it and it sucked but they've made it usable again… though the UI is still a confusing mess. I don't think anyone who develops that app at Apple is dogfooding it,

And the person who is denies being Asahi Lina. Meanwhile, Lina sometimes shows paths with "/home/marcan42" in shells during their streams. Martin's not admitting it but he's doing a poor job of hiding it too.

"A huge number," maybe, in the sense that the majority of the world's gamers today only play games on their phone, but not the ones spending the most money. People who will pay extra for 144hz 4K monitors or multi-rollover ke

I don't understand why someone would learn something like Esperanto when they can put that time and effort into learning a language that people actually use in the real world instead. Now excuse me as I go back to making a Snake clone

Seeing all the JavaScript kiddies rediscover the speed and UX benefits of not using massive front-end JavaScript libraries to display simple web pages in the last few months has been alternatively hilarious and frustrating to me.
