These days feel like an ‘Are we the baddies?’ moment for the US

Kile used to be great, probably still is

Was going to say that. They to go through the digestive track, so it needs a day or so to work. The toxin of amanita is heat resistant so you can make a stew of it, and when the first symptoms show up your liver is probably already beyond repair. If you want it to be more interesting, there are some species that are poisonous only with alcohol, like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprinopsis_atramentaria , although the symptoms are less severe as in death cap, but maybe it’s not unimaginable to give a hearty stew a day before a known heavyweight drinking run to kill the dude(ette).

I see how that is a hype train, and I also work with machine learning (though I’m far from an expert), but I’m not convinced these things are not getting intelligent. I know what their problems are, but I’m not sure whether the human brain works the same way, just (yet) more effective.

That is, we have visual information, and some evolutionary BIOS, while LLMs have to read the whole internet and use a power plant to function - but what if our brains are just the same bullshit generators, we are just unaware of it?

That was a very long time ago, that’s fine now

For offline editing there’s already LibreOffice

Now try to add an extra layer of crap with English not being your native language. At this point only zoom gives fairly correct transcripts, both apple and Google are on the “you know what, I’m rather typing this shit” level

Friends stopped writing their blogs. I slowly stopped reading most comics, now only Questionable Content and the occasional xkcd remains

Fortran, probably

I loved netvibes to get daily comics and blog posts. Unfortunately people stopped writing blogs and netvibes is also gone

That’s Samuel L Jackson from Kingsman

They are bringing it down?

Gardening? If you don’t have any possibility maybe there’s a community garden nearby. Sourdough bread? Fermenting stuff? Learning an instrument?

Korean letters are insanely easy to learn, the whole purpose of their alphabet was so even the stupidest farmer could learn it within a week.

I think I have my next ready thanks!

Opening line of Neuromancer doesn’t make much sense any more "The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.”

It’s like a small pitcher with a movable filter, you put in the ground coffee, hit water, stir, wait, push down the filter with the grounds, pour off the coffee with most of the ground staying in the French press.

Like, not dying while trying to go through menus while driving

They moved from python?

What about Enkidu?
