I believe it cheerily admits that it is wrong even if it is correct eg: > Human: What is the tallest building in Europe? > AI: The tallest building in Europe is currently the Lakhta Center located in St. Petersburg, Russia. It stands

This is a trap I fall into once in a while, getting too obsessed with my tools or environment. I sometimes try to remind myself of this part from the Red Dwarf book Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers about Rimmer's studying habits: >

I wonder if their attitude is "hey, you clicked on it once buddy. chances are you're a little curious, and people really engage with this material"

I think that was the highlight of the opening ceremony. Would be interesting to know if Rowan Atkinson was involved in developing the bit (not so much the video clip but the single note business was well conceived).

I didn't realise that about the Lupin books. Ironic that Monkey Punch's Lupin The Third comics had copyright issues of there own. (This is why in the original dub of Castle of Cagliostro, Lupin was called "Wolf")

It does, and FM isn't too much different, but then I would be surprised to find a simple AM/FM radio that can tune to bands where you would encounter CW.

I had great experiences with DayZ when it was still an Arma mod. The standalone was very disappointing. On the other hand, the dev of the original mod was the lead on the standalone (for a while) so buying it made me feel like I was contrib

Try installing it from the source into eg. ~/.fzf and run ~/.fzf/install (if I remember correctly). It will offer to add bindings for ctrl-r etc. to the shell's rc file. Easy to update, just run git pull in ~/.fzf a
