The logo expressing "Limited Express" is very unspecific, imagine if buses with the Mercedes star cost extra and didn't stop at every stop. Interesting that a lot of US road signs have words on them: https://ygraph

Do 401k's know about pump-and-dump, but think they can time it to make profit? Or are 401ks "bound" to buy stocks? It feels like a lot of retail buyers know the emperor is naked, but are still acting on greed, thinking they c

I complain about LLM-slop a lot (see my comment history), but this one doesn't feel like one! The only bit I thought could be LLM was: > The gap in my tutoring setup wasn’t the quality of the instruction. It was two structural thing

And the clanker doesn't even explain what changes for compatibility changes that Commodore and Bell agreed to and Bell didn't deliver... Such a horrible piece of writing.

What the hell is this headline and the article trying to say..? "40% of horse-drawn carriage cargo is hay, but 50% of what we feed horses is hay". So what?

I'm pretty sure you can. But if it's GPL, you need to provide source to the buyer, and the buyer can publish that source for free.

Somehow the "center"'s answer to the rise of right-wingers is stupid censorship, instead of fighting ideas with better ideas. Alternatively, the center starts trying to attract right-wing voters by adopting right-wing ideas l

It doesn't seem to be LLM, but reads like one. The author is German, maybe it's a language expertise thing, maybe he likes the LLM style (unrelated to his nationality). But yeah, sentences that only have 3-4 word each feel like 3r

People can get up and walk around on ferries and trains. Are there bus rides that take days? Even those most likely have breaks so the bus can fuel up, change drivers, and allow the passengers to eat, go to the bathroom and have a cigarette

Funnily enough, one of the companies that don't yet have tap-to-pay is... JR. Each JR company also have their own website, and their own "network pass", making it quite cumbersome to book online tickets (e.g. needing to book

Hah, outsourcing political "influencing" to tiny "consulting" companies that promise great things but is a rickety AI slop shop in the backend. I suppose the only difference to the Big 4 is the price tag. I guess politic

On Windows 7 it was still possible to have the Win 2000-esque UI. I think it was an option between the classic UI or the fancy UI with gradient buttons and translucency and slowness.

Huh, an idea would be physical buttons that a program listens to, and when you hit the key, the program sends a message to the OS to switch the keyboard layout to a particular one. So an Elgato Stream Deck or Razer Stream Controller. So you
