I've been eyeing the Xteink devices for a while now. They fit all the boxes - small, cheap, physical buttons - a basic reading utility. However, since there's no support for DRM, I'm worried either I won't be able to fin

Perhaps unrelated, but that reminds me of the inevitable avalanche of identical replies to every submission on aphantasia, all proclaiming that, no, they do indeed find it odd that there are people who can visualise internally. Do you enjoy

What difference does it make?

And not everything's about learning. You are allowed to do things strictly because you enjoy doing them, with no ulterior motive.

by my_throwaway23 4mo ago
It sounds almost as if you're saying learning is only possible by reading, which, I would argue, most of the history of humanity proves false.

Side note: I love literature, but I can not for the life of me understand how anyone can consider non-fiction enjoyable to read. Informative, perhaps interesting, yes, but enjoyable? Heck no. Take me as far away from reality as possible. Th

No, not at all. They're a classic comfort food, usually made quite thin, but not thin enough to be called crepes, and I'd wager most people don't learn through a recipe, but, similar to you, it's some of the first things

Perhaps you could add a classic Swedish take on pancakes/crepes - whisk a moderate numbers of eggs with milk (4 eggs for every litre of milk is a good starting point, but dealers choice), flour until a nice consistency, fry in a pan un

As much as I'd prefer a smaller, non-american operator (for most anything really), I'm extremely hesitant to pay directly for search. For this service, the "just an ID as account" looks nice and private on the surface, b

WYSIWYG, huh? I'm certainly not against the idea, and the editor seems to work well enough (given the 3 minutes I spent on the landing page). I'm not so sure why it needs an LLM in-between the source files and the editor though...

Note: de jure, not de facto. I'm pretty sure most news outlets would cave with the right pressure, with or without any new laws. On top of that is the fact that the department for foreign affairs is the department where the line betwee

Most people don't treat their line setting as holy scripture. Besides, nobody stops you from putting your actions on a sliding scale. Did your good friend not repay his loan? Okay, what's the size of the loan, and how did they rea

I opened the comment section expecting to find a slew (a slop?) of LLM enthusiasts. I was not disappointed. Whether you're a fanatical or not, of either side, LLM usage is driving energy and hardware prices to go up, it is an impli

Who is writing the tests?

Yes, but they're close to 10 years old at this point. 10? 10.

To be fair, Windows 7 was quite good in my opinion. Wait, what year is it?

Slop. Ask and ye shall receive. In a reply to another comment you claim it's because you couldn't be bothered writing documentation. It seems you couldn't be bothered writing the article on the project "blog" either

> The constraints you'll hit when building widgets today aren't arbitrary. They're scar tissue. You get a point multiplier for rewriting parts of whatever vomit the LLM gave you. `1 x 0` is still `0` though.

Frankly I didn't "build" anything. It was mostly just a case of setting up the docker scripts, make sure the volumes have proper permissions and the configuration is sane. The configuration though, I'll take all the cred

I'm using Element Synapse with the Mautrix bridges. They're all a pain to setup, with a ton of required configuration options each, but once setup, it's mostly transparent where any one chat originates. Reactions, emojis, med

Ding ding ding! Reading, and to some extent editing, is not an active task. In order to become better, at anything, you need to actively do the thing. If you're prompting LLM's, and using whatever they produce, all you'll see

I'm not sure how to begin to describe the feeling of reading an analytical take on working as an escort. Weird. Side note: Every single AMA/QA with a prostitute I've seen I've posted a question I'm anxious to know t

I used to live in Gdansk, and later Gdynia, and let me tell you - as soon as it's cold outside, people burn all kinds of shit at home, the air's so thick you can practically cut it with a knife. We theorized that the smog's m
