I think that was actually 2002 when I look back. Everything sucked on the desktop then :)

Been working on this one for 25 years. One day it'll stick!

Just tested this. It does squeak at me.

I've given up on it. Hey Siri, add Macarons to the shopping list. Later: what the fuck are Salty Albanians? That and the AI image recognition stuff repetitively can't tell the difference between cows, yak, horses and cats. I just

Yeah this. My average day when I go near EKS upgrades: Waltz in, fuck up the ALB ingress controller in some new and interesting way, spend all day bouncing AWS support tickets around, find out it was AWS's fault, find half the manifest

Oh man that was my desktop for about 3 years. Had an already fairly obsolete dual Pentium 3 Dell precision workstation which was spray painted black because it had gone embarrassingly yellow and looked like someone had peed up it. Edit: loo

Well if a parrot called me a twat like that one, it may be logically consistent. How do you know? Well that requires verification, which is probably more costly than doing the legwork yourself in the first place. That applies to all LLM gen

Yeah the CO2 bottles and exchange is expensive as hell. It's apparently cost effective if you use a commercial one but the outlay is pretty high. Not worth it either way IMHO. I just put up with flat shit.

I got rid of my car about a year ago and I got fed up of carrying bottles of the shit back from Tesco so just switched to water. I wasn't even drinking the sugar stuff. Made me think about the whole drinks industry a little.

That is fair and a good point.

I would be careful with some of the self-help groups. They can reinforce symptoms rather than improve them. A case in point is a friend of mine who thought she had post-covid symptoms and cognitive decline. She went to a similar group and f

Fairly obvious. Is a parrot racist because it heard someone being racist and repeats it without being able to reason about it? It lacks intent and understanding so it can't be racist. It might make racist sounding noises though. A fine

Yeah this. Also as an anecdote, my daily driver machine is a bottom end M2 Mac mini because I am a cheap ass. I paid less than it for the 4070 card in my desktop PC. The M2 Mac does a dehaze from RAW in lightroom in 18 seconds. My 4070 take

But they do have seat, icing, instrument failure issues which the FAA are looking into now. This is about safety, not body count. Safety comes up front.

It's a good question but it's as much airline as the aircraft. Personally I don't fly Boeing because I don't want them getting business. But I will pick an airline that doesn't have a crap safety and maintenance rec

That's not the metric I am comparing. I am comparing safety culture. A bad safety culture has the propensity to do serious harm to people and should be called out. When a business, read Boeing/Tesla/Toyota, cover up safety cl

Yeah this. Which is why I sold my turd and bought a shit city car.

People who buy expensive things are more satisfied with them. That doesn't mean they are objectively better or that is correct. Edit: an analogy: I have a really nice expensive mechanical watch but my shit $10 Casio is objectively more

I bought into it back in 2017 before the marketing facade fell. I was a fool, an idiot and a moron. As an actual qualified engineer I should have looked at the whole situation in detail and read through it. After owning my model S for 9 mon

I made this comment the other day. Sounds like it still applies. Tesla are car Boeing.

Yes it was. Probably signal aliasing. I drove a dumbcar after (shitty bottom end Citroen) which exhibited no problems! :)

Pease the bandgap tzar, one of my professional heroes. Muntz no. Should be filed in the same can as Sinclair. Rumour has it that the vast majority of really defective transistors (rather than just the moderately defective ones he shipped)

The only car I've had software that worked at all in, and I've owned a Tesla, was a Citroen. And that was because it had no software worth mentioning other than a BT receiver.

I've owned a Fiat and a Tesla. The Fiat was better put together.

Load of marketing crap. USB ports soldered onto the motherboard and have you ever tried buying parts from Lenovo? Also my T14 gen 3 has several firmware problems.

I actually have no problem with this because Dell/Lenovo/HP software and firmware is a mess. I suspect the issue is that the underlying platform is shit and a mess and this is being reflected in the software. At least Framework ar

Well the surface oxides are the finest oxides of any vehicle, possibly behind Datsun.
