I'd like to remind everyone that I STILL haven't found my Nintendo DSi.

ngl playing Alien Isolation off an iPad on a TV in 4k with an Xbox controller is amazing

Think I need to get some air quality sensors that talk Zigbee. Probably go down the path of IKEA, since the store is both close by and the product affordable. In the realm of “good enough”, if you will.

@Streakmachine they're wildly inaccurate though, there's probably not much point of using them

@mozilla hi, I have this bug in FF that's been ignored for the last 15 years, what can I do?

Is there a free/#FOSS color picker for Mac that lives in the menubar and provides quick access to last swatches like this?

ColorSlurp went freemium. I'm not subscribing to a color picker, sorry. I'd pay an one-time fee.

Pikka and Sip did the same, ColorSnapper is abandoned.

Can Final Cut Pro 2 for iPad round-trip with on Mac now? I'd look it up but their own documentation is outdated (1.3)

EDIT: ah, FCP2 for iPad is not yet out. Ok

I think #AI is at the stage where electricity was in the late 1800s. Tons of incompatible standards run by unregulated companies, people electrocuting themselves at their homes, and promises of electricity as the ultimate cure-all.

It has tremendous potential for the future but it absolutely has to be strongly regulated, and the worst excesses curbed.

@dilmandila that's a great point. That's one of the excesses that need curbing. The environment wasn't exactly pristine in industrial arenas back then though.

@dilmandila that's why I said "industrial areas" :) (well, I said "arenas" but wth)

@stooovie@mas.to avatar

I have yet to see a SINGLE #AI tool that successfully carries out a complex task.

Mimic anything? No problem. Actually do something that comprises several steps? ALWAYS fails. In 100% of cases.

@GrantMeStrength that's no-go for non-developers

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@TheServitor @GrantMeStrength yes but that's not the promise of the current AI hype, is it. I'm very curious what Copilot+ and all the AI stuff in Windows will ACTUALLY do. Right now it's all either statistical mimicking of already existing stuff, or bullding block toys for programmers. The moment you want something concrete, it all fails.

Seriously just Face ID in landscape and its speed is worth the price of admission. I would gladly keep my M1 Pro for years and years but after my 4yo bent it and my subsequent attempts at straightening it kind of fucked up the display I'm glad I didn't pinch pennies and opted for the latest.

Only thing: I think the fatter older models definitely had better audio. It does seem to sound thinner now.

Mark Knopfler makes essentially the same album for the last quarter of a century and I love them all.

Where are custom keyboard command sets stored? I deleted FCP as I the SFX folder isn't anywhere on my Mac, but forgot to export my command set before deleting the app. Luckily I have a time machine backup, so if I would know where the command sets are stored I could find them! 😅

@richaesthetic there is an overall system Library at /Library and then each user's Library at ~/Library

@stooovie@mas.to avatar

The new app is getting even worse! After the last update, the local Music Library takes like 5 seconds after launch to even appear, and then AFTER YOU PLAY SOMETHING, IT DISAPPEARS ALTOGETHER.

@zvenster @ChrisWarwick it is, they added it this week
