And then everyone fell in line with the gun emoji. And then everyone threw a fit when X changed it back to a real gun emoji. Honestly, I’ve just stayed working for inland US companies that are far away from FAANG because I just knew I’d hav

Maybe SpaceX should partner with Activision-Blizzard to run Diablo 4 servers in space so Elon can get better latency for His Pit 140+ runs when flying in his private jet.

I’ve developed this tic where anytime I’m on Facebook I aggressively block all the non sponsored suggested content in my timeline. I’ve blocked literally thousands of pages at this point. So the recommendations have gotten really weird, las

I want to invoke my human right to live in a place with the population density of the late great Kowloon Walled City. Less glibly, just by cutting regulations I’m sure you could get affordable housing in a place like Toronto, but wow the pe

Same. I’m traveling with our family of four tonight to visit an elderly relative, we’re meeting halfway. If we stayed in a hotel, we’d need two rooms, we’d have to pay for restaurant food. My wife has a Walmart grocery pickup order we’ll gr

LoL just taught me how to lose friends and alienate people by screaming at them. I just stay away from competitive games, my blood boils when my friend doesn't heal or whatever. I realized it was very unhealthy for me to play. I only p

I've tried every expensive egg that Sprouts and Whole Foods sells and the only ones I've found to be notably different are the Happy Egg Co. Heritage Breed Eggs specifically. Sprouts is the only place I know of locally that sells

I’d hazard a guess that this is using the Microsoft Trellis [0] open source project released last week. You can download the weights and the code right now, just need an Nvidia GPU with at least 16GB vram. I saw people doing this manually o

Too bad the "no editorializing titles" on hacker news means nobody will understand what's happening here without clicking the link. This stuff is truly revolutionary.

Sounds like there’s the potential of asking it a question and it literally spending hours thinking about it.

At least they have a very fine historically restored pub for ants built out. I always wonder how atrociously expensive the little scale models architecture firms make are, I’d imagine this one uses real tiny hardwoods on the floors and stuf

Ea-nāṣir sold sub-standard copper to the servant of Nassi. Nassi had not accepted it and his servant was treated very rudely by Ea-nāṣir, and inscribed a letter to be delivered to Ea-nāṣir. Was this a virtual meeting?

Toyota has also swung back into the button direction. Only the CarPlay and a few of the backup camera controls use the touch interface (and the button I use most for the camera is a physical button). I’m sitting in my car right now waiting,

I had this happen at my last job. Got a new boss who was closer to the situation and ended up bouncing me over the course of a six month pip. I was so bored, and the hard problems always got taken by the same guy who they’d just hand stuff

Because people are concerned that the embrace, extend, extinguish of Microsoft will rear its ugly head and we’ll all have been bamboozled again to use closed source software.

I had a dental chain say I needed periodontal scaling because I was having terrible pain in my upper gums. It took two years and another dentist to tell me I actually had a cyst and the cyst growing had almost dissolved my nose bone. Anothe

What evidence is that exactly? It’s evidence that your gums don’t like being traumatized by a small string of plastic?

Alternatively, as someone with severe ADHD, bupropion at the lowest dose gave me a psychotic episode where I started hearing things. Felt like I’d been dosed with schizophrenia pills. The razor blades told me to give them a look see. I thre

An actual Google PM called me up the other day trying to upsell me to $200 a month 20 gigabit. Said they’d give me a router but I’m free to hook whatever I want to the fiber, saturate it as much as I want, no worries. They must have a lot o

I dunno, I pay $70 a month for gigabit from Google Fiber and absolutely saturate that thing all day long up and down. A Google PM got me on a call and asked me if I wanted 20 gigabit for $200 a month the other day. No restrictions, I could

All of these services reverting to ads just makes me feel like we’ve gotten such a bullshit corpo rug pull compared to cable. Cable was nice and bundled and it was like a pipe of shows. It was super convenient with a unified interface. But

I have tried for months to use my APAP machine, and failed. My wife has no problems using her. I’m not really sure what the next step even is. It’s frustrating because I can tell when I get a bad nights sleep I can’t think as well, but it f

Blippie the children’s show star has somehow come out unscathed after literally shitting on his friend while doing a Harlem Shake video. I’m not really sure how. I tell every parent I meet who mentions Blippi but it’s like trying to stop a

I think the pendulum is swinging back on using the touch screen for everything. My 2024 Toyota Sequoia has a touch screen but it’s only for the infotainment stuff. No essential part of the car is controlled through it. Lots of buttons and k
