I'd rather wash my hair with spiders D:
This is the future of Windows. Microsoft wants to rewrite Windows to turn computers into AI PCs that you talk to. It's now bringing AI features to all Windows 11 PCs today, in a bid to convince you to talk to your PC and let AI control it. Full details 👇 www.theverge.com/news/799768/...

No no, no, this is great. Follow me here:

Let's make the display pixels much smaller with higher resolution screens, and then let's shrink the controls at the same time we as users are getting older and our eyes starting to be less amazing...

And then let's make the software suck too!

Woo!
Thanks for sharing this. My house mate has endo bad and literally covered half of this this video in a discussion this very afternoon. Relevant and timely, spookily so!
This is important and educational and true. Give it a watch if you are, know, like or have heard of women. Endometriosis sucks.
Perfect.

I was given a pair of decent microphones recently.

I guess I have to start a podcast now? Or become a streamer?

This is a lot of pressure.
So I guess we peaked over a two or three year period.

I can accept this.
This one says 85製 on it.
We peaked in 1985.
Absolutely not.
Here’s a primer on ‘primer.’

It’s pronounced ‘PRIMM-er’ if you mean “a small book” or “a short informative piece of writing.”

It’s pronounced ‘PRY-mer’ if you mean “an initial coat of paint.”
I've never heard anyone say 'primmer' in my whole half century life, unless they're being very prim but someone else is better at it.

And even then, no one says that.
I think a lot of people these days are looking for less uncertainty in their lives. Tight little conclusions (and happy endings) can be a mental salve.

But then maybe they can find some other media instead of complaining? But then, complaining is the point for some people?

AUGH

I thought something seemed off about the the image posted below: it's a photo that's been edited and colorized by AI. Please don't do that.

I think this is a really salient point that’s a key thing that gets overlooked as an element of what might be necessary to embrace if we’re going to be able to get out of this.
One reason former Republicans have been better at opposing Trump than many progressives is because they correctly understand that the GOP’s descent into fascism represents a dramatic shift, and is therefore scarier, where the latter groups feel the need to argue it’s just a continuation of trend

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

The Hudson bee in a cowboy hat still exists & is still good after all these years

You can look at him in the image below👇
OK, I think I get it now: AI is to code what tornado cash is to crypto currency. It's basically laundering code from Stack Overflow.

"It's not unattributed code, I got it from AI."
My first post-tariff package to the USA cleared customs today. Zonos adds 2 fees: tariffs and their charges.

They take my item valuation in AUD, convert it to USD, then calculate 10%, convert it back to AUD and charge me. This 2x conversion adds $0.07 on $3.

I'm sure that's intentional.
Huh, weird, Discord stopped hassling me about verifying my age yesterday, and today they announced they got hacked.

Who'da thunk.
Discord kicked me out of the PC app because I won't submit to their age verification system.

Motherfuckers I am old enough to know "we totally promise no one's storing your ID" is foreshadowing the 'we inadvertently stored all your data and then we got hacked' announcement.
This was a post about a Chinese electric car's method of handling an overheating/explosive battery situation: it jettisons the thing out the side of the car, making it someone else's immediate problem.
"Capitalism killed us but it's the left's fault" is a wild take.
We live in an age where it takes less time to design and print some parts than it does to order one for overnight delivery.

This one allows a Seimitsu P=50 stick (LS-32, Nobi, etc) to fit a 4-post panel, with room for an internal dust washer.

Oh! There's a solution to that? Because a vertical task bar is a Big Deal for me! Cool!
