PumpkinEscobar,

Most steam games just work. Make sure to go to settings and compatibility and let it use compatibility for all games. Look at something like bottles for a front-end to let you set up and use wine / proton for other launchers, etc….

CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information (futurism.com)

You know how Google’s new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)...

PumpkinEscobar,

Rip up the Reddit contract and don’t use that data to train the model. It’s the definition of a garbage in garbage out problem.

PumpkinEscobar,

That sounds exactly right. Air quotes around Christian.

PumpkinEscobar,

Without looking I’m sure Louisiana is already bottom state in at least a dozen major education metrics. This ensures that ten years from now it will be even more.

PumpkinEscobar,

I can’t believe they’re going through with it. The last (only orbital) test flight had serious problems.

PumpkinEscobar,

Interesting, I don’t know how I missed that, I follow a lot of space news. Thanks for the info / correction, definitely not as crazy given the second test that reached the ISS.

PumpkinEscobar,

What an awful god damn tweet. Are the tariffs to combat Chinese governmental meddling? If so, great. If not then they’re protectionist stupidity that’s sure to draw a response. This tweet sure makes it sound like it’s the latter. sigh

PumpkinEscobar,

Battle.net running in bottles works Ok. I did have an issue with battle.net running under X for a while, switching to Wayland worked. Whatever the problem was seems to have been fixed

PumpkinEscobar,

Asahi only partially supports the M3 and I guess now the M4 is out (though only in iPad)?

PumpkinEscobar,

The worm’s last words, “the moon landing causes autism”

PumpkinEscobar,

Btrfs will be fine, I use btrfs on a standard arch install, timeshift for managing snapshots, works well.

PumpkinEscobar,

Fwiw they’re able to do the same thing by the sound of someone typing a password across the room. Not advocating for fingerprints or anything, just these exotic hacks are everywhere

PumpkinEscobar,

Automated testing is often more cost effective than manual testing. Not to say 100% automated testing is a reasonable goal. But I’ve never worked anywhere without some automated testing (unit, integration or end-to-end).

PumpkinEscobar,

These guys are really entertaining. Flat earth people are boring by comparison. Sovcits will use 15 legal and Latin terms they learned from their redneck uncle, cram all of them into a single rage Facebook post not understanding what any of them mean. Wonderful.

PumpkinEscobar,

The headings / bearings they use are all over the place too, remember looking it up and it feels like the writers just picked whatever numbers best fit the flow / cadence of dialog they were looking for

PumpkinEscobar,

Yeah, some shows did have their own consistent-ish systems, but I think some shows used a system that seemed to be relative to the center of the solar system, others from the perspective of the ship (which makes more sense to me, like naval bearings) - memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Heading.

It was a quick lookup from a long time ago, I was working on a 3d space game and was curious if ST had a consistent model I could just use.

PumpkinEscobar,

I thought I saw a headline last night that the democrats in the house said they would vote to table any effort to remove Johnson.

PumpkinEscobar,

The Trial of Hunter Biden('s Penis) - In this 6 part miniseries we’ll be lending our usual journalistic excellence to uncovering the throbbing truth…

PumpkinEscobar,

I just blue myself

PumpkinEscobar, (edited )

Agreed, the meta+arrow shortcuts to move windows around are great. That defaults to half/quarter windows. You can also define a custom layout (meta+t to configure). The meta+arrow shortcuts still work on half/quarters of the screen, but you can shift+drag a window to drop it into one of the custom layout tiles/areas… gives a lot of flexibility.

PumpkinEscobar,

Can I ask what the better working system would look like? I’ve seen plenty of the stories about TSA lapses, obviously security at the airports isn’t fun, but I’m not sure what an alternative system that works would look like.

PumpkinEscobar,

Just to check, is the suggestion to get rid of TSA and not replace it? i.e. no security screening at the airports?

Is there any country on the planet anymore where that’s a thing? Any example of a working version of what you’re proposing (if I’m reading it right)?

Also

Disband TSA. It’s never been shown to improve safety

That sounds pretty far from true. The only way this is true is if TSA procedures have never prevented a single gun, bomb, etc… past a security checkpoint.

As reported by the TSA they stopped 6737 firearms, 93% of them loaded from getting into secure areas… in 2023 alone. They also conducted a passenger survey where 93% of passengers said they were satisfied with experience, 94% confident in TSA’s ability to keep air travel secure

Conducted a passenger experience survey with a sample size of 13,000 travelers at multiple airports across the nation. Survey results revealed that 93% of travelers were satisfied with the passenger experience and 94% of the respondents were confident in TSA’s ability to keep air travel secure.

I’m not sure what percentage of the 93% would feel the same way, but I will say if the TSA went away tomorrow with no replacement I’d no longer be flying on any airline that was unscreened.

PumpkinEscobar,

Almost every time someone tries to lump this many people into one basket, the rest of what they’re saying is going to be dumb as hell.
