Outer wilds is the video game equivalent of shrooms
Veselekov@veselekov.bsky.social · 4d agoMy friend explained to me how most games are designed like Opiates where the point is to escape reality and blunt the pain of day to day life. Built around convenience, addiction etc. She then said she wishes games should be Hallucinogens that would expand her reality, make her think. Legend
If they renamed Dundas station to TMU station, why didn't they rename Dundas West station to TMU West station?

Anna Mehler Paperny@mehlerpaperny.bsky.social · last wk.A decade ago a car hit me and sped off. I have an osteoarthritic knee now. Biking these lanes not knowing whether it'll be the last time and knowing these removals make another hit-and-run more likely has been...hard. www.thestar.com/news/gta/for...
mr carney if you're listening now is the time to suspend US IP protections in Canada
in honor of the IBM PC's 45th anniversary today, here is the original prototype motherboard! which side is your favorite?
I wonder what its like to buy an electronics device and not care about whats inside of it, whats it running, whats the circuit like
*It'll be a little hard to put this entity in jail, but these are serious computer crimes including wire fraud, identity fraud, unauthorized access, malware distribution, and supply‑chain tampering laws. *A human blackhat could do 20 years for that in the USA
I realise the details are unlikely to be forthcoming, but I'd like to to know more about why OpenAI and Anthropic are unable to set up secure test environments without internet connectivity. It doesn't appear a particularly difficult task.
the more I age, the more I detest software at a visceral, personal level. Every pointless deprecation, bullshit API change, vibe-coded regression, violation of semver, godawful UI change in tooling I use, etc. that I have to put up with is time not spent enjoying my brief time on Earth
I hate LLMs so much that I’m throwing my university degree in the toilet and applying to college for trades
Maybe if they kept calling it “carbonic acid gas” people would be taking this shit more seriously
bookswain.bsky.social@bookswain.bsky.social · 2mo ago“An atmosphere of that gas would give to our earth a high temperature..” Quote from ‘Circumstances Affecting the Heat of the Sun's Rays’ by Eunice Newton Foote published in 1856, the first published experiment to demonstrate CO₂ is a greenhouse gas. Ominous words from 170 years ago.

I am not made for Capitalism. Every relationship I have feels cheapened and dehumanized by the exchange of money. Everything becomes a hollow experience because it is meted out by an arbitrary quantification of worth. It makes me feel as if the only true emotion or relational value is exploitation
Searched for random chip datasheet and got this, come on man, this is annoying as fuck now.
No wonder this shit feel like a hostile invasion

english isn't for cowards. if you're not saying 'torpify,' that's a skill issue. there's no Académie Française telling you what to do. if you try to type 'pallific' and freak out when you see a little red underline, maybe you're not ready to roll with the big dogs.
Ok I’m convinced now that OpenAI has known the whole time that local LLM inference is gonna eat their subscription data center bullshit for lunch, and the DRAM apocalypse last year was a hedge to force nvidia consumer product price points up www.nvidia.com/en-us/produc...

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."
It’s kinda funny that for LLMs “token” was chosen kinda arbitrarily as the noun for mapping text to LLM weights, but now that everything in dev world is about “spending” as many tokens as possible, the etymology kinda came full circle
