So long and thanks…
32·3 days agoTime to lay some pipe.
1·4 days agoEh, if I’m hauling around a 40+ lb object, I want it to provide more travel utility than I could just walk. You can get more range out of a OneWheel, and it can probably handle hills better.

*Ahem*
Simple Attack Allowed Extraction of ChatGPT Training Data
Image-generating AI can copy and paste from training data, raising IP concerns
Actual research disagrees with your opinion.
Hmm, 15mph max, for a total of 12 miles.
If you’re just doing a quick config edit, nano is significantly easier to use and is also present in most distros.
Vi/Vim is useful as a customizable dev environment, but in the present there are better, more feature-rich development tools - unless you are specifically doing a lot of development in a GUI-free system, for some reason.
Hmm…
Hummingbirds live 3-10 years depending on the species, cockatiels ~15 but possibly as long as 25 with good care, white storks 35+ in captivity and even longer in the wild…
So what happens when one of you/part of you dies? If you’re sharing the mental state, do all of you experience death collectively? and then the surviving parts have to continue living with that?
4·4 days agoTwo different people. Both headlines are accurate.
Hmm, “millions of years” is technically correct but “paradise” is very much in the eye of the beholder, and “stable” is really only valid if you’re considering very short and selective time windows…

Or rather, the longest stable period we’re aware of is when the atmosphere was full of methane.
And there it is… ChatGPT is a mechanical Turk.
0·6 days agoUm, the core feature is privacy invasion. It does what it says on the tin.
It’s fine if some people want that functionality, as long as it’s not enabled by default.
Barring actual manufacturing defects, the cheapest quartz crystal timing circuit on the market will be far more accurate than the very best Swiss watch movement, by orders of magnitude. A mechanical watch depends on a spring whose behavior is highly environmentally dependent - it will gain or lose multiple seconds per day, being affected by the orientation, vibration and temperature changes it experiences. A quartz watch will drift a few seconds per month.
Oh no, it’s worse than that… we use the metric system to measure the customary system…
The Mendenhall Order marked a decision to change the fundamental standards of length and mass of the United States from the customary standards based on those of England to metric standards. It was issued on April 5, 1893, by Thomas Corwin Mendenhall.
[…]
Mendenhall ordered that the standards used for the most accurate length and mass comparison change from certain yard and pound objects to certain meter and kilogram objects, but did not require anyone outside of the Office of Weights and Measures to change from the customary units to the metric system.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendenhall_Order
Technically every unit in the US customary measurement system is just a weird conversion factor of an equivalent metric unit. At this point 1 yard was defined as 3600/3937 meter, which means 1 inch = 2.54000508 cm. By 1959 everyone finally agreed that this was stupid and redefined it as 1 yard = 0.9144 m (1 inch = 2.54 cm).
All measurements in the US are based on standard reference objects provided by BIPM.
And it tells the same time as a $5 Casio
Assuming the fancy watch is mechanical, your $5 Casio keeps better time with a quartz chip.
If it’s not mechanical then it’s basically the same device with an expensive shell.
Yup…
RTFM
