I’m not at ease in an airplane. I rarely fly but i actually like it, but I’m really anxious. What helps me is always taking a seat near the wings. First that’s where the plane moves the less. And moreover, it’s pretty reassuring watching th

Nope, that's my point, on your kindle, the screen is a Kaleido 3, which is a black&white+lcd layer: https://www.reddit.com/r/eink/comments/1i8e26x/seriously_how... Vs Spectra (the expensive scre

Maybe because all the AI actors, probably including Hugging Face, want to push the narrative that AI companies aren’t responsible for what their agents are doing. I think our societies will have to settle on this.

You have to distinguish the fake color e-ink that are used in mass consumer products which are actually black&white e-ink plus an LCD layer and are expensive, and the real color e-ink where each micro capsule embeds 3 to 5 different ink

fwiw, I’m already playing windows games on my Retroid (Android ARM Snapdragon) console and it’s already really good at least compatibility wise. I mean, you can comfortably play GTAV on this thing and it’s powered by a smartphone processor.

Yes of course, the doctor is “free” to choose between the treatment that the patient will be able to afford and the one the patient will not. Sorry guys but you are really living in a shithole country.

Stargate SG-1 was maybe optimistic sci-fi. Actually it was settled in the present but it was full of good human vibes and human values. It had an incredible vibe of “humanity is good and humanity will stand against anything bad”. It was rea

Oh, Nice reading :)

I agree but that’s still my point. The thing looks totally unpolished. The corners are horrible, the UX looks subpar. It’s the first time I feel like Apple totally rushed a new product without any real vision. *Xiaoco, I invented this ref.

Oh but I agree that the Apple Watch does all of that very well, I myself use it mostly for this. I was just answering to gp : the Apple Watch pretty much only make sense if you own an iPhone. Else, you’d better buy any other smartwatch bran

Honestly I have owned two Apple Watches and you are missing nothing. They do look nice if that’s your taste, but they are extremely locked down and are pretty useless without an iPhone. I cannot cite even one application that is a killer ap

Oh wow. That looks extremely boring and unexciting. It doesn’t look like it’s Apple, it looks like Xiaoco Fold Z Duo 16.

My impression of LA when I got there was that I would never live there, even in the nicest spots. Which confirms my intuition that the richest have no taste. Also it’s an American city made for cars so it doesn’t help me to like it.

Sounds like your experience from LLMs dates back to 2022.

It sounds like you don’t know what it means to have your ancestors fighting to death for freedom and rights, being enslaved in work camps… The fight is to never get to this situation again and to keep the rights people died for you to have.

Good example. It’s also like saying our brains are just electric circuitry incorporated in meat. It’s true but it seems that consciousness emerges from this. The fact that LLMs are next token predictors isn’t the interesting or impressive p

It says required but I managed to submit without. I guess it's vibe coded and this field is anyway pretty redundant with Country. Ironic that you cannot choose anything in this list if you are from France, like, the Daft Punks.

The first Spotify client, the one in Qt was actually really good. Things started going downhill slowly when they integrated Facebook then very fast when they threw everything through the window to rewrite everything in electron.

I'd consider a 18yo OS retro, yes :) Windows 7 is nearer to Windows 95 than to Windows 11. And yes, time flies.

I was also shocked and a few minutes after i completely forgot. It's like, "ok, I can't miss something I've never had". And I was hugely comforted in this position when I learnt that "normal" people hear a

You cannot be a fancy startup if you don't have your own font I guess.
