I’m just going say this, what’s shown in the illustration is clearly NOT a pasty. Pasties are pretty serious grub. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasty

I really enjoyed some of his later books too. Cocaine Nights and Super Cannes are great. Like a lot of his books they seem simple until you dig into them. They fry my brain a bit but that’s surrealism for you. Will Self has some good writi

Obligatory reference to this classic wildlife film from the Canadian Wildlife Service in Ottawa. It's almost unbelievable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2HipedgM3I

It’s the test I’ve used for AI for many years. I ask it to draw a screenshot from this imaginary “Fortnite” game. If it draws something rather than pointing out fortnite doesn’t exist then I know it’s failed. One time it drew a fortnight ri

YJIT is amazing but for me, JRuby and TruffleRuby were the real game changers. For anything "slow" I can put it in Sidekiq and just run the worker code with TruffleRuby. I have high hopes for ZJIT but I think TruffleRuby is the pr

I agree. I don't really get worseonpurpose's argument here. I have two proper backpacks, an old UK made Karimor Jaguar from the late 80s and an OMM Classic 32 I bought recently. Although the Jag is pretty good shape considering

The best way to block Flock is probably to find a way to track billionaire celebs like Taylor Swift and Elon Musk. If they were able to successfully change laws so they can fly anonymously they can probably change laws on cameras in public

The biggest selling points for me with SQLite are how well tested it is and how well it scales to large data files. It’s a really solid piece of work. If the concurrency model fits what you’re doing I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in producti

This is just me but I like short travel keyboards. Long travel “mechanical” switches set off the RSI in one of my wrists. I don’t care about the sharp edges because 1) they’re not actually that sharp. 2) I don’t rest my wrists on them. I mo

I’d actually be interested to see it on a black one. It might look like “brassing” on an old, well used camera. Whilst I like that it increases the “tooliness” of the Mac it’s not of me I think. I like mine pristine. ”There are many like i

Could you go into details about why you think this? I haven't used PowerPoint in years as I think my needs are pretty simple but I wonder what I'm missing. I can see that the Microsoft ecosystem gives control on who can view files

I see several posts in this thread from different users suggesting that we buy an age verification ID card. They all misformat currency in the same weird way. No one actually British writes 15£. I don’t want to pay an extra tax to access th

It's the use of the word "quest" here that really bothers me. It seems ignoble. Much like the "unmasking" of Banksy or Belle de Jour. Why do it other than nosiness? Is the person committing a crime? No? Then leave

Undoubtedly! I haven't trusted hairdressers for 20 years. I have no idea why people would need to spend money in such establishments. :P

This looks like a great way to launder money. Write some generic AI music, have have your small accounts using stolen giftcards bought with dirty money pump the track and watch it climb the charts as other jump on the band wagon. Et voilà i

For some reason that also reminds me of the TV shows in Robocop. e.g. Climbing for Dollars and It’s Not My Problem! When I first saw Robocop these looked so crass it was obvious satire. Now...? Well, I'd buy that for a dollar.

This looks like a really great project. I naively thought that with 300ish synths covered they'd have everything I own but I can see that's not the case. I've got Alesis, Casio and Yamaha equipment that's missing. Time

This seems to be somewhat similar to web browsers. I could see the model becoming part of the OS. Of course Google and Microsoft will still want you to use their models so that they can continue to spy on you. Apple, AMD and Nvidia would se
