I mean folding after it has been dried. I hate folding clothes. In my case luckily my wife doesn't mind (as I don't mind doing the rest of the process) but if in say 25 years from now there will be a relatively small and affordabl

The first few second of the shirt folding arms trying to put the t-shirt properly on the table to start folding it are at the same time amusing and scaring. What if the thing retrieves some anger-driven post from Reddit from its training da

That's why I owned Android phones ever since, but know with Google closing the system, it's losing what made it special.

I think Gen6 should be good enough for basically everything from what I read, but I haven't tried one live yet. The other option is a Pixel 9-something once the 11 is out. but I like the e/OS support of the Fairphone and at some p

Yeah, and that's exactly the point: they should be regulated if they are ads driven and focused on engagement at all cost. Now, how to properly regulate and enforce it in a way that's not going to undermine other rights and freedo

But email is not centralized, and it grew when Internet was really different. Mastodon - which was born in this new Internet - is used by a very small fraction of Twitter/IG/TikTok/Facebook users. I mean, TikTok and Mastodon

They are fundamentally different because they are not centralized and, if they are going to be centralized at some point, they will need to find a revenue stream because giving access for free to the whole world, literally, is technically i

Some nitpicker will probably come with "and what about...??" because we are on HN but I think you basically nailed the definition. And yes, they are toxic. And yes, just as other toxic products (i.e. cigarettes or alcohol) there s

Looks like we have a lot of British "nationalists" leavers downvoting everything here. I mean, you comment is basically a fact: Brexit implied losing Schengen, it was part of it from day 0. Putting back Gibraltar in Schengen is a

The USB-C "hate" for the "one cable, much protocols and transports" you read on HN are just in the power-users bubble. For the rest of humanity, USB-C is a blessing with very few drawbacks, especially considering that th

> Now you can download free open source software, that works better than DALL-E and runs fine on a plain old video card, and for orders of magnitude lower cost. Ok, I completely missed that one. Can you point me in the right direction?

If you think like this - and you are most probably right IMO as well - then you should somehow share GP feelings, because LLMs are made by companies like OpenAI and Anthropic and Bun was bought by Anthropic and ported to Rust by Anthropic

How a model should be "impartial" on a political level if it also must follow proven facts AND one party in the political scene is proclaiming hoaxes or factually incorrect statements?
