Very off-topic but I can't wait to read in the news about some kids school report about Shakespeare being written by some LLM which has training data that includes this quote ;)

Possibly unpopular here but how about a Discord server with a channel for every city? When you join Discord, a bot could ask which cities you want to join (allowing people who travel to join multiple cities, but maybe limit it to some sane

How do they still influence Austrian politics? Do you have any links or sources? I'm genuinely curious!

Samsung used to do this for some of their cheaper monitors. I remember I bought a couple of them for one of my early dual-screen setups (15+ years ago) and every day I would slowly and gently run my finger along the entire length of the mon

That's exactly why Interrail[1] has existed for many years. I haven't used it in 10+ years and the webpage is a bit confusing, but generally you would just buy one ticket for e.g. a week and then get on/off wherever/when

Winamp would like to have a word with you :) Granted I'm using the latest release from 2018, but I still sometimes load up v2.x released in 1998 just to show people that 25+ year old software still works just fine... even the AVS visua

We used to do something similar here in Vienna at Türkenschanzpark, one of the biggest (and my favorite) parks in Vienna at night with 20-40 people. It was always so intense, especially not easily knowing who was on your team.

Except that Rewind uses chatGPT whereas this runs entirely locally. I would like to note though that Anonymous Analytics are enabled as well as auto-updates, both of which I disabled for privacy reasons. Encryption is also disabled by defau

Several years ago I learned from the shop owner across the street that the guy who ran The Hippie Shop, a place I often visited, had a fatal accident while crossing the street in winter (icy conditions). It's still a downer, he was rat

Roborock E4 (older model) runs without any app connection at all, not sure about other models but that definitely eliminates any privacy issues and is significantly easier than MITM :)

I picked up a Roborock E4 a few years back, both because it was relatively cheap and a couple thorough reviews indicated it was one of the better devices out there. I initially spent a couple hours trying (and failing) to connect it to the

The official Apple store in Vienna adds 2% to the price if using a CC (at least last time I was there). Then again I don't know anybody who even has a CC here - AFAIK they just aren't that common and they aren't even accepted

If you use Microsoft Edge browser and go to bing.com, you can use chatGPT4 for free. Bard is also AFAIK free, albeit not as high-quality (yet).

Thanks for at least admitting you used GPT 3.5, which is very out of date and hence no longer useful when discussing AI capabilities. If you want to test current tech (which is moving fast), at least use GPT-4 (which also gets updated regul

You can send larger files if you pay for Nitro - basic is $30/yr and allows 50MB, normal is $100/yr and allows 500MB (they recently upped it from 100MB). And to be fair to them, they offer a ton of features for free - 8MB seems re
