The same thing happened to my extremely old account (17+ years). A few weeks ago I noticed I stopped getting replies and taking a look in incognito mode verified my suspicion. I had stopped existing. I think it was because I had started the

I've setup a test website for my father's business. We own the domain which was bought separately and we just point it to the servers for our WordPress plan (I didn't want to be bothered with self-hosting). The main reason to

I did the same with an Atari 400 that had a cassette tape. I remember it would take 30 minutes or so to load/save games I copied from magazines. The keyboard was torture. I then moved on to very rudimentary text adventures of my own on

That's a great idea. Good luck with the project!

Cool project. I would think the killer use case for this is when you don't have internet access and you are forced to deal with something like an openssl man page when having to do something non-standard. With internet access I enjoy g

This also has a great audiobook version. Simon Prebble really brings the characters to life.

Years ago after getting one I was messing around in settings on Amazon's Alexa website and noticed a log of commands/messages sent to Alexa. I reviewed them and was horrified to see "why does daddy always beat me". Best

I've never heard that one. Thanks for pointing it out. They remind me a little of The Connells...check out Scotty's Lament and Stone Cold Yesterday with my favorite being Fun & Games[1]. I think they were five years too early.

Thank you for reminding be of the band's name. Hearing that one four times a day was painful. It's stuck in my head now again and I haven't listened to it in twenty years.

The spike in one-hit-wonders during the 90s wasn't surprising to me. I had the unenviable position of working as a line cook and construction worker during the 90s and listened to the radio 6+ hours a day. It's actually fun to lis

At thirty I quite my job as an industrial painter and sandblaster and started as a temp data entry clerk at a local government for $8/hour. Worked hard at what I did, made connections, and moved into field-work, then GIS. From there I

I downloaded the demo for Factorio last night and suddenly it was two in the morning. Amazing game, I'm scared to buy it.

This is great. It's interesting how two very remote dwarf planets with widely different orbits are so close to each other right now (90377 Sedna and 2012 VP133). EDIT: On further thought, I noticed another kind sorta nearby. I wonder i

There is also Cardinal, a GPL fork that you can run as a plugin directly in your DAW of choice (I believe you need the paid VCV Rack to do that): https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal

There is this: https://www.kompoz.com/ It's geared more towards collaboration and there is some system to share any income that gets derived (not sure how it worked). You find someone's song page, download the exi

First sentence of the book needs some editing: "When thinking about where a book dedicated to computer RPGs might come from, one might Germany, Canada, UK or the US."

I call them agents just because. I'm just doing function calling with custom system prompts for the most part. It's hardly complex, I wrote most of it in a few days. EDIT: I should add that the first step is used to cut down on th

Depends on your definition. I created a mapping application that allows one to navigate and style the map with natural language (more or less) as well as some prototype database interaction. When the user inputs a prompt, it gets sent to an

I use Apple TV through the website (laptop driving the TV). They are the worst with bugs and UI design choices, at least on Chrome. Will the space bar pause the movie when I press it? Maybe!

I've always understood Moldovan wine to be quite respected. I love the wine from that general region...my favorite is Crimean wine, the semi-sweet variety.

I remember Tiny Elvis from the 90s. He would sit in your tray and pop up once in a while and say something like "whoa...get a load of the size of that pixel" and then he would pinwheel his arms with the classic stance and dance hi

I worked on a UT99 mod back in the day and was invited to the Raleigh office back in 2003 or so after our artist was hired by them. He still works there. Hard to believe how far the company has come.

This reminds me of something I discovered when implementing a request from a user that cheekily wanted to use "enhance" to zoom in on a map. I gave it as a few-shot injected example in the prompt to get it working which worked gre

Here's the one I like by The The Aquaerials, the piano packs an emotional punch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww1CqDfIGfs And by the same artist in a similar vein: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uw

Well, I deserve all the downvotes. My apologies to Fred! I love the video.

I'm pretty sure it's AI generated. For a couple days I was falling asleep to this one anyway, not much content like it about Eve elsewhere (other than the book that was written).
