Just one more day and it would have been gone forever.

Look buddy, that’s not quite right!

Some like Hawaiian, others like Alpine. To each their own

This meme stung a little

Especially Linux distro! Now, give me a pulseaudio snap package for my Unity desktop.

ducks and covers head

In tents, if porpoises

Wet bread from the sink is the mind killer

I can’t help it,

Help help! I’m being repressed!

Don’t do it…

I had to look up the panopticon reference, so I thought to share with others: ‘A proposed prison of supervision, so arranged that the inspector can see each of the prisoners at all times without being seen by them: proposed by Jeremy Bentam.’

A nice, dry pair of socks works, too

I like the ‘ground up’ approach they mention that doesn’t rely on insecure ‘adversaries’. I’ll check it out soon.

It’s true (and it feels a bit dusty), but it’s still meeting my needs. I hope it’ll get picked up again or perhaps another project will replace it.

First beans, now beef stroganoff. What will it be next?

I installed a custom launcher that’s close to the stock one on my Pixel 3 specifically to make it possible to remove the Google Search widget. Now I have a Firefox widget that points to DDG.

If any are interested, the launcher is Lawn Chair, and it can be installed via F-droid.

Pls don’t forget! I hope it will be a bowtie noodle recipe this time

It’s a fundamental flaw. They’re unable to admit making a mistake. Rather than being a sign of weakness, acknowledging errors is the first step to correcting them. I think this is why they keep failing.

This, and it’s not a human. All these analogies trying to liken a learning algorithm to a learning human are not correct. An LLM is not a human.

This hits the nail on the head. A major component of art is that it’s an outlet of human creativity, something we find fulfilling to both produce and consume. If creativity is delegated to machines, what’s left for us humans? At some point, we’ll grow tired of Taco Bell and re-runs, and what then?

Good one, thanks!
