I just made my own the other day, but yours demonstrated how much better what I came up with could be. The /panel idea is great. I'll get them onto improving my gpt. It's niche, but I think your gpt will excel at that. Thanks

Even new cell phones, for that matter.

Essentially the same thought here, as I always thought of it as the "actually rich" versus the "nouveau riche."

A Rolex is likely still working if you buy it at an antique market. Apple, not so much. They'll be non-functional and useless well before they could be even considered a 'classic.' Even old Casio watches from the early 80&#x2

Robb Report still considers them to be a beginner's watch, and treat the brand as only of interest to people who want to dip their toes into the higher end watch collecting waters.

Especially since the change was more than a year ago. I'm sure everyone still uses the twitter domain as well. And it's clear that people are still using the word 'tweets' (although xeets and xcreets are more appropriate

Is throughput and speed the same thing these days?

This sounds very familiar to me. A couple years ago I helped someone in a situation incredibly similar to this. I'm in infosec, and have forensics in my background. He used to "talk" to the hackers by writing text the phone&#

I guess I'm boring. I've been calling it "eff ess check" for decades.

If you're interested in that sort of thing, I wrote Hello World using 6 different methods in Assembler for Raspberry Pi. Even if not using a Raspberry Pi, it might be of interest to anyone that wants to understand what the difference i

If you do a writeup on the prefetch queue and want some original code for tampering with it, let me know. I did some deep experimentation with it in the 90's, and still have the code archived. The prefetch queue could be (ab)used in so

My partner's been using ChatGPT to correct everything. But I suppose that doesn't really help improve your ability to write. It does improve the writing itself, though.

This is true. You can tease dogs with it before throwing, and they'll be all over you. A cat will watch you acting silly, waiting for you to finally throw it (unless they get bored of you first). At least that's my experience. Inc

That's pretty alarming. It is more than the entire population of Canada.

Apparently it's two problems. But the only one I noticed described dealt with maximally packing boxes (the exact opposite of what Amazon does).

You can also ask them to stop recommending getting your wisdom teeth out. That's their cash cow, and they badly want to remove them even if there's no reason to. I'm in my 50's, and I got tired of them asking me "Wh

I use Google and Dropbox more like thumbdrives. Dropbox automagically takes pics and vids off my cell phone. When it syncs on my desktop, they are then (by a schedule) moved to a closer-to-permanent location and the spool is deleted. 10 Ter

I went to an Ozzy concert years ago, and damn am I ever glad I thought about ear plugs. We were about 30 feet from a stack of cabinets. It was loud . Enough that certain notes made specific internal organs vibrate in a way that could easil

Cars in the 70's and early 80's all had giant motors in them, and double barrel carbs just to have enough juice to haul all that metal. They were definitely tanks compared to pretty much any car that came thereafter.

In Toronto, which is a metropolis, pickup trucks are everywhere . Is it different in other cities? Most of them get used like regular cars with nary a usage bump or scratch in the back in their lack of use, which is baffling (everyone has

Part of the reason is that every time the desktop environment starts to get good, they ditch everything about it for another product cycle. So everything you do is mired in keeping up with the underlying bits that just can't stay still

It feels like at this point we should also have "Organic Objects on the Moon" which would include, for example, tardigrades. Apparently there are bell peppers and a few other things like that in the Chinese pod, too.

This reminds me of the 80's "Tough Love" movement. It destroyed my family. I ran away at 14 and didn't talk to them even once for 20 years because of how that book got them to treat us. To this day we still pretty much n

Going to the gym is like going to a fancy dress ball. HN links have provided me a goldmine of great t-shirts nobody else is likely to be wearing to their workouts. This post did not disappoint. So now there's a new black rpi5 x-ray tee

Ironically George Takei's account is basically a digest of what happens on Twitter (x). But his blog is absolutely newsworthy, and it beats having to log into that other site to read it from the source. Every post from him has at least

This is true (and actually valuable) but it doesn't help in cases when Elon or anyone else who is influential, adds a comment to a false, misleading, or racist message. People aren't flagging when Elon says "True!" so pe
