I think it was a skilled prompter + manual editing

No, AFAIK. You're getting "Server error", right? Sorry, I forgot their frontend is very unreliable so many people cannot use feddit.de unless they have the web app cached or use a third-party app.

The post in question is at lemmy.ml so try their link: https://lemmy.ml/post/14308005/10161187

Cameras are not too great. Ground-station-based radio positioning systems, some of which can be used to enhance GPS precision to centimeters, already exist. (The ground stations, in a mesh tens of kilometers apart, get their position to that precision by averaging GPS over several days.) I'm pretty sure there is already a system on non-GPS frequencies too.

I know that you cannot rely on peeing/pooping harder for weight loss but how is "in" a unit of weight?

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

2 inches of what? If it's hair, I'm disappointed but still amused at this way to advertise a regular hairdresser service

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

That's a really weird way to measure one's fitness. Still, exhaling takes less than 3 seconds! /s

While you're at it, solve the "all perfect numbers end with a 6 or 8" conjecture.

Amicable with benefits

GIMP's mission statement is 1. be hateful to use

It hurts to say but you're right. I was like "can't you remap the right mouse button to another tool? Everything in the context menu is in the Menu bar regardless" and they responded with "nope, design philosophy"

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Milk used to be sold like this in Czechoslovakia too. Not sure about other Eastern Bloc countries.

The bot could link to the thumbnail using image syntax !()[] and add the title, channel, view count & duration; Piped even supports DeArrow for clickbait reduction. However, this would either cost privacy by auto-loading content from Google or add even more load on the "default" piped.video instance. Many people would also hate it even more for that.

And the fact that more-than-0-layer PCBs exist

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

I've received so much that I've built up natural immunity. They hyped me up and now I regularly fail expectations, and when I do I cannot be consoled.

So yeah, the comic is right: external validation can fuck one up.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Well, I'm sure you and they meant it well but they would say "you're good, take your time, we like you the way you are" and now I cannot get anything done or take meaningful steps to improve my lifestyle.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

That's a pity cuz I skimmed your profile and you're valid

Word 365 once crashed for my sister and she lost a day's worth of work. It had made some autosaves while she was working but they were nowhere to be found after the crash, not even with advanced recovery tools. Instead of making more stable software, Micro$oft decided to integrate OneDrive into Office, recording every action while editing documents, and now also in the entire system. A very typical 2020's big tech move, unfortunately.

My first attempt at reading this: Microsoft announces recall of Windows 11

That would have been great. The very few good things 11 brought (tabbed terminal, text editor and file browser) have all been standard in major Linux distros for decades.

Not counting service packs, the first OS Microsoft "recalled" was Windows 8, where everyone got a free upgrade to a slightly less shitty 8.1, and then 10, which was also a minor upgrade. It would be very funny if they reversed course and showed people an intrusive popup with "Sorry, you are using the newest version of Windows, which will no longer getting updates. You are now able to return to Windows 10 which we can comfortably continue updating without feeling guilty. You can keep working, the operation will happen in the background. We will tell you when it's time to restart."

It would have made sense, the share of 11 among Windows actually users shrank in the past quarter despite it being the default option for prebuilt PCs.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

It's a closed-source operating system witth a very intrusive EULA so it's hard to tell what is actually happening in the background. The FBI could probably get any user's local file tree, I assume, regardless of "settings". Your solution is the best, it certainly beats using the computer 100% offline.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Microsoft is wary of its professional market and there is already lots of features that can be "managed by your administrator" in the Enterprise edition. Admins can even force your desktop background and theme colors to a painful lime green if they want.

Plot twist: he already has one but stays quiet about it, because the result is apparently bad

...The voltage in respect to another bird, just 5 meters away, swinging between -200000 V and +200000 V, 100 times per second, and you don't even know it.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

How? Mutual feather combing? The voltage has no effect here.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Some HV power lines do seem to vibrate; there is indeed audiible hum.

I skimmed over the top post and at first thought that this conversation happened as the kid walked into a post-game interview at a stadium

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Look up Ironlily. Most of her works are slice-of-life wholesome drawings set in a fantasy medieval European-like military camp but everyone is a cute girl (including a landsknecht with a sus codpiece). Toplessness happens casually in non-sexualized ways such as at bathtime but it's not common. The girls show varying degrees of fondness and romantic pursuit among each other, and it never gets explicit. It's arguably ecchi but as mild as it gets.

Dreamcast? Tivola?

I had a blast playing the Czech-localized version of Bioscopia until the CD got scratched and it started crashing. I was terrible at gaming (still am but can look up guides now) so I never got past the starting area and reception. Still, the interactive encyclopedia kept working and I went through most of it. I recently pirated a working English-language copy (developed by Tivola together with the German one, I think) and had a blast. It would still crash at later points but I was able to hack the required items in through the plaintext XML save file, as well as 99 credit on the keycard (not as interested in biology anymore) and finish the game.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

I think they do make some kind of edutainment but not like this. Point-and-click adventures were relatively easy to integrate some education into but the kid needs the time and patience to find a solution when they inevitably get stuck (perhaps with hints but not walkthroughs). Their attention span is too short nowadays because content comes more often than on 1 CD-ROM per month for the delayed gratification of exploration and puzzle-solving to work.

Currently, voters are mostly favorable to Fico, as evidenced by his cohort Pellegrini's win in this year's presidential election

Google's call-scanning AI could dial up censorship by default, privacy experts warn (techcrunch.com)

A feature Google demoed at its I/O confab yesterday, using its generative AI technology to scan voice calls in real time for conversational patterns associated with financial scams, has sent a collective shiver down the spines of privacy and security experts who are warning the feature represents the thin end of the wedge. They...

The title feels weird. Is this really a way to use "dial up"?

Oh, I assumed it was another "witty" word association by a journalist.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

It still does, provided you use the "Save as" keyboard shortcut (F12). No such way, however, to prevent Outlook's OneDrive shilling whenever you attach an Office file.

And Trojitá (the email client) was written by a Czech. It means “triple” in Czech, and Czech Republic is famous for porn.

I am afraid to open Krita in public because its mascot Kiki (the robot squirrel girl) is drawn dangerously close to upskirt in the splashscreen.

GIMP's is just mushrooms, nothing objectionable.

It's a recursive acronym so it could expand indefinitely into GNUNUNUNU...TKIMP, similarly to wineineineine... or Benoît Benoît ... B. ... Mandelbrot Mandelbrot. Like a ZIP bomb, never try to expand it fully.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

Her look varies by artist. She is usually whiter and not as apparently robotic. There is a reference design but it's not really official. More info

And yet, for both you are supposed to pay for an overpriced device. You can at least pirate the R1 app.
