Maybe the latest discovery by Dragonfly.

Far fewer people will be able to read it, without doing something illicit and maybe expensive, although certain countries will still be free enough. On the other hand, it (or PieFed or a future version) could be endorsed by the remaining nations, or just have had some more exoduses of users come in.

Slight chance the AI winter we’re going into is short and some specific fusion with classical algorithms succeeds at AGI, so singularity stuff is going on and being posted about. 2038 problem, as someone else mentioned.

Edit: Q-day stuff could be done, coming soon or ongoing. If it’s done - which I kinda expect - it’s still a massive source of both breaches and fun mods on old, locked software and hardware.

Allowing calls to proliferate in the first place and be addressed would indicate some level of free speech.

5% sounds high just by how things are, and how little people understand what it is. I’d buy 1%, though, and that’s something.

Trump is right that Canada in between the lower 48 and Alaska is border gore. But there’s another solution…

Probably, LLM-based will sound like web-enabled at that point - a dusty old buzzword. They’ll have something newer and shinier even if it’s still an LLM inside.

The drones giving migrants a scan first is on the optimistic side, if things go at all how they seem to be.

If the composition of Lemmy is even remotely the same that will be everywhere.

I shouldn’t.

Rereading that article makes me wonder if it’s a rod-related thing, since it’s only noticeable at night under dark skies, and apparently they can contribute to colour perception in those cases as well.

I think I can see more colours in the stars than most people. I can also tell the northern lights are coming up earlier, so probably just low-light cone sensitivity.

A wasp died in a vent a bit ago and it smelled awful to me, but nobody else could perceive it at all.

I have a different reason, but just a nice sturdy brush, and the hard edge to scrape anything stuck on.

Kitchen sponges are basically the dirtiest thing in your house, by amount and harmfulness of bacteria contained. It might just be something one of the species gives off.

Also notice that Lemmy is actually multiple sites connected together, so there might be more than one of each community, which can be confusing at first.

Other ones on other instances, too.

Not in an apartment right now, but I do tend to absentmindedly slam things. Sorry, I don’t mean to be loud.

Keeping it practical, I’d like to know the basics about every regionally important city in the world. Capitals should be easy, I probably have most of them down already, and I have a few ideas about how to compile a list of the rest.

In a scripting language, is there an advantage to no garbage collection? (I honestly don’t know)

Someone else also pointed out to me, when I made a similar suggestion, that ability to partially fail but keep going is desirable in a web context. I don’t know, maybe there’s some way to make Rust do that more automatically than C. Python seems the be the standard for general-purpose scripting, which is why I mentioned it.

I think the premise is a bit off, although it might just be your choice of wording. Only a very small subset of people at at any time tend to get away with violence, and it’s not necessarily the most aggressive ones. Stick up a convenience store and see how well that goes for you.

Violence seems likely to always be a part of life, at least in the background.

Invent a new internet where you can script pages directly in Python or TypeScript.

Otherwise, you get to enjoy a silly toy language from the 90’s.

Okay, now I’m really curious. What do they say?

Channeling what therapists have said to me a bit: it’s not what happens that causes feelings, so much as what you think about what happens.

Maybe you’re looking at things is a winner-takes-all way here? Like, if you’re not better than them in every way, they win. It’s not actually like that, of course. There’s billions of people on Earth, and you should be the best version of yourself you can be regardless of what everyone else is doing. Changing other people is nearly impossible (another thing therapists like to bring up) while improving your skill is not, and the two are very separate here.

IRL, that I’m left-wing and atheist, because it’s a loyally right-wing area, and because the latter thing pisses off an important minority. I also avoid anything that could be seen as “playing a card”, although in the right conditions I might bring whatever personal consideration up. The only way I’m admitting the first two is if either they did first, or I’m asked point blank.
