they promised Delamain and all we got is Brendan

the 1000x before bit has quite a few sideffects to it as well.

• lesser used languages suffer because there’s not enough training data. this gets annoying quickly when it overrides your static tools and suggests nonsense.
• larger training sets contain more vulnerabilities as most code is pretty terrible and may just be snippets that someone used once and threw away. owasp has a top 10 for a reason. take input validation for example, if I’m working on parsing a string there’s usually context such as is this trusted data or untrusted? if i don’t have that mental model where I’m thinking about the data i might see generated code and think it looks correct but in reality its extremely nefarious.

the main difference is that Microsoft builds features quickly and for profit. that means the focus isn’t always on what the user wants, so they make tradeoffs that are good enough to not disturb the user base. recently with the AI craze basically showing how little they really care for the user.

Linux on the other hand is FOSS, anyone who wants a feature can build it. this is slower to deliver because the profit incentive (if there even is one) isn’t as big but that also means there don’t have to be compromises to delivered features.

looking at both these operating models i would rather be in the group building the future for users rather than shareholders. if it means waiting a few months for a few things to work as smoothly as I want I’m ok with that because it only keeps getting better and it’s literally free.

even if you delete your email account it takes time to process usually, you might check if you can recover it if its been less than a month. https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6236295?sjid=2329362500849459163-NC

i never know what’s expected on those type of captcha. if the handle bars of a bike go into an adjacent box and are 99% covered by a hand does that count? what do you do when you have a blurry image full of jpg artifacts and are asked to identify if it contains a fire hydrant. I’m pretty sure it usually classifies me as a bot for being too exact since I’m asked follow ups for a few minutes until i give up and just close the tab out of annoyance.

tried Razer, Logitech and they just never felt right. got a new zowie (za13-dw) and it felt smoother, good weight and sensors, also no need for extra drivers. they make different shapes for different grips and hand size so you can find what fits. honestly one of the best mice I’ve used, up there with my old mx518

no one understands how these models work, they just throw shit at it and hope it sticks

caches are never really a concern to me they will regen after the fact, from your description i would worry more about db, this is dependent though in what you’re using and what you are storing. if the concern is having the same system intact then my primary concern would be backing up any config file you have. in cases of failure you mainly want to protect against data loss, if it takes time to regenerate cache/db that’s time well spent for simplicity of actively maintaining your system

fair point micromachines is finicky to play so it’s good for teaching patience lol. although the mechanic will only give points if one player falls to far behind and goes off screen. when i was a kid my brothers and i would just explore the maps and played it more as we have to stay close enough to not lose. as an adult the game just becomes chase your kid, probably best to not play it seriously

from a sega childhood my top:

• toejam and earl
• micro machines
• world of illusion (mickey and donald)
• California games
• Bonanza Brothers (has guns but in game they are tranquilizers and enemies wake up)

in Windows you separate each drive by a letter like C:, D:, etc, however on Linux your drives are mounted as part of your folder structure. the top level is called root which would be / you can then mount each disc as a folder under root, so for example /home could be a separate hard drive but it’s still mounted under root, note the starting slash. This means the command deletes any and all files+directories under root, this can include mounted USB, mounted network drives and anything mounted to your root. you’re basically nuking all the files you can access when you’re logged in as admin/root.

i love Linux tips! you can also print animated clams on the CLI with :(){ :|:& };: add to your bashrc to be greeted everytime you open a terminal!

but seriously, don’t run that unless you want to reboot.

make sure to add --no-preserved-root to make sure to update all the English libraries too so you can make sure only freedom fries are respected.

Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark!

there was a study done in the 50s that pretty much decided US health policy for decades that said fat is bad and makes you fat. the reaction to this was for companies to remove fat from their products to claim it’s low fat but in order to maintain taste they replaced it with sugar. this proliferated all food products and being coupled with both parents working 40+ hours a week caused a lot of families to fill fridges with highly processed foods with “healthy” sugar/fat levels that could be prepared easily. tie in the fact that there’s no time to exercise with the fact that most Americans drive to destinations, it becomes easy to read articles that x is the cause of obesity that it took a long time to realize what the real problems are.

The thing about Mr Beast, it’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When it comes at you it doesn’t seem to be livin’… until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white.

would i be able to sure them for false advertising? only FedEx doesn’t deliver to my apartment for some reason and says it’s an unreachable destination.

the entire songs context is around the Battle of Baltimore which included 25 hours of naval bombardment. from the perspective of the ships where it was witnessed and given the volume of shells fired they assumed everyone would be dead.
