| IsambardPrince | MinceR, The Brandon Lobster Effect is in full force on Reddit today. | Oct 25 00:28 |
| IsambardPrince | A Chicago man was acquitted by a court for charges of murdering a tranny. | Oct 25 00:28 |
| IsambardPrince | There was no real evidence he did it other than "his cell phone was pinged nearby" and "he sent some messages to the tranny asking the tranny to delete texts because he didn't want anyone to find out he fucked a tranny". | Oct 25 00:29 |
| MinceR | also, sheepshaver emulates PPC macintoys | Oct 25 00:29 |
| IsambardPrince | Which is not enough to prove murder "beyond a reasonable doubt". | Oct 25 00:29 |
| MinceR | basilisk II emulates 68k macintoys | Oct 25 00:29 |
| IsambardPrince | So now of course all the trannies are on Reddit crying that Americans have a Constitutional Right to a fair trial with due process. | Oct 25 00:29 |
| MinceR | (and that also runs on x86) | Oct 25 00:29 |
| IsambardPrince | What do they want instead of the courts? | Oct 25 00:29 |
| IsambardPrince | A public salvaging from The Handmaid's Tale? | Oct 25 00:30 |
| IsambardPrince | But only for people they think might have killed a tranny? | Oct 25 00:30 |
| IsambardPrince | It was the middle of the night in a bad neighborhood in Chicago. | Oct 25 00:30 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not out on a limb to say there's a lot of ways to end up dead in a gutter in the middle of the night in South Chicago. Especially with the sort of fucked-up lives trannies live. | Oct 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | It may or may not have been that defendant that did it but there's no proof that he did do it. | Oct 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | And proof is what wins a criminal case. | Oct 25 00:31 |
| IsambardPrince | The prosecutor couldn't even establish that it was his cell phone, apparently. | Oct 25 00:32 |
| IsambardPrince | So the only thing they took him to court and based the case on was that a phone that might not have been his was in the area and sent text messages. | Oct 25 00:32 |
| IsambardPrince | They lost to a guy who had a public defender. | Oct 25 00:33 |
| IsambardPrince | I mean, holy shit. | Oct 25 00:33 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], The landlord put a 5 day notice of termination of tenancy on the door of the people downstairs. | Oct 25 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | Over a $113 balance. | Oct 25 00:54 |
| IsambardPrince | That's improper service. | Oct 25 00:55 |
| *includeals has quit (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in) | Oct 25 00:55 | |
| IsambardPrince | If the landlord files eviction based only on this, that can get it thrown out for improper service. | Oct 25 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | State Law and the RTLO also state that it's important where that $113 came from. | Oct 25 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | If it's administrative fines or late fees, not rent, it's not a basis for eviction. | Oct 25 00:55 |
| IsambardPrince | They can evict you for unpaid rent, but not fines and fees. | Oct 25 00:56 |
| IsambardPrince | Politico: “Transunion, a consumer credit reporting agency, found in a 2024 study that 22- to 24-year-olds in Gen Z had higher average credit-card balances, higher average auto-loan balances and higher average personal-loan balances than millennials of the same age a decade earlier, even when adjusted for inflation. Gen Z borrowers also had higher delinquency rates than their millennial counterparts.” | Oct 25 01:01 |
| IsambardPrince | “This gap — between the promise that hard work will bring stability and the costs young adults say they can’t get ahead of — is key to understanding the politics of Gen Z, a voter group that helped President Donald Trump win in 2024, but whose longtime loyalties have yet to be won by either party.” | Oct 25 01:01 |
| IsambardPrince | Quit putting $2000 iPhones on a credit card. | Oct 25 01:02 |
| IsambardPrince | Quit signing for cars you cannot afford with payments that go on for 8 years. Take the bus. | Oct 25 01:02 |

| nobody | the latter Puma tank reports only a few dozen tanks of 350 were combat ready | Oct 25 01:21 |

| MinceR | fucking criminals. | Oct 25 01:10 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, I never said he was intelligent. | Oct 25 01:15 |
| IsambardPrince | He got a car with no money down, didn't buy gap insurance, and wrecked it. | Oct 25 01:15 |
| IsambardPrince | Then his aunt was on gofundme asking other people to pay the deficiency balance on his car loan. | Oct 25 01:15 |
| MinceR | :> | Oct 25 01:16 |
| IsambardPrince | Not buying GAP insurance on a no money down car loan only works out well for you if you do not have an accident before the car has some equity. | Oct 25 01:17 |
| IsambardPrince | Which is basically taking your chances and self-insuring, and he found out what self-insuring means. | Oct 25 01:17 |
| IsambardPrince | You are effectively betting the total value of your loan balance against a distracted driver, a slick patch of ice, or your own mistake on the road. | Oct 25 01:18 |
| IsambardPrince | If you don't crash, you "saved" $300 to $800 over the life of the loan. If you do crash, you're hit with an instant multi-thousand-dollar bill for a pile of scrap metal you no longer even own. | Oct 25 01:18 |
| IsambardPrince | He 'saved' about $600 and then it cost hom over $5500. | Oct 25 01:19 |
| IsambardPrince | He had all the latest Apple shit but didn't want to add $10-12 a month to his car loan to avoid a several thousand dollar unhedged risk on top of having no car. | Oct 25 01:20 |

| IsambardPrince | Hello everyone, for those of you who don’t know; Monday last week I was in a minor accident. I am fine physically but my car is not. The insurance company called me late Friday night to tell me they are going to total it out. They are paying me for the car but unfortunately that's not enough to cover what I owe. I am now without a car and don't have enough on hand for a downpayment. My aunt went out of her way to put together | Oct 25 01:21 |
| IsambardPrince | a GoFundMe to help me out. I am so thankful for my family's support during this stressful situation. | Oct 25 01:22 |
| IsambardPrince | GoFundMe is not your family supporting you | Oct 25 01:22 |
| IsambardPrince | It's your family saying you were an idiot and they aren't bailing you out, but people you barely know should. | Oct 25 01:22 |
| *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights | Oct 25 01:23 | |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, This falls under the category of a hard lesson. | Oct 25 01:24 |
| MinceR | :> | Oct 25 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | That deficiency balance goes to collections, they sue you, it's on your credit report for 7 years. | Oct 25 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | They get interest and then they find something to take eventually. | Oct 25 01:24 |
| IsambardPrince | For a car you haven't had in years that got smashed. | Oct 25 01:24 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR, I know I'll be downvoted on Reddit for this. | Oct 25 01:29 |
| IsambardPrince | But I mentioned that "surprisingly, in a free country, it's not illegal to dislike transgender people and to use freedom of association to not associate with any". | Oct 25 01:29 |
| IsambardPrince | The only way anti-discrimination laws apply are if you can prove that's why someone won't do business with you. | Oct 25 01:30 |
| IsambardPrince | Unless they send you an email and say "I didn't hire you because you're a man in lipstick." you probably don't have a case. | Oct 25 01:30 |
| IsambardPrince | Basically landlords and employers have this neat thing they do. | Oct 25 01:31 |
| IsambardPrince | They put up an Equal Opportunity sign and then they do whatever they want and find a "legal" reason for it. | Oct 25 01:31 |
| IsambardPrince | Like "Another applicant for that apartment had a better credit score or higher income." | Oct 25 01:32 |
| IsambardPrince | "The other applicant for this job was more qualified. Feel free to apply again." | Oct 25 01:32 |
| IsambardPrince | They're very careful to stick to their usual procedures. | Oct 25 01:33 |
| IsambardPrince | I had one that said this about bankruptcy... | Oct 25 01:33 |
| *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights | Oct 25 01:33 | |
| IsambardPrince | "If a landlord has a policy that says no bankruptcies for 7 years, and we approve someone who had one six years ago, we could potentially be sued by another applicant where we didn't apply the same understanding." | Oct 25 01:33 |
| IsambardPrince | It's difficult to get an apartment in Chicago and a lot of that is that you could get someone who pays their move in fees and lives there the next 9-10 months before you can evict them. | Oct 25 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | The easier it is to evict someone, the faster it is, the more of a risk a landlord will take on an applicant. | Oct 25 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | Democrats are not doing people with risk signals any favors in housing by making evictions difficult. It makes it impossible to find housing. | Oct 25 01:35 |
| IsambardPrince | In Cook County there's a pretty thorough process. The tenant can slow you way down. They can drag you into forced mediation even if you don't want to negotiate. | Oct 25 01:37 |

| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: "use search", that is a very clunky workaround, but okay. | Oct 25 05:23 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: On that note: the search page didn't tell how to do a phrase search. | Oct 25 05:24 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: I "guessed" that it required double-quoting the phrase, and it seems to work; | Oct 25 05:24 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: but it will be better to explicitly suggest that as a "Tip" on the search form. | Oct 25 05:24 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: (Because you know, bespoke on-site search syntax differ from websites to websites; it's not that great to make readers guess from trial and error) | Oct 25 05:25 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Also, what does "Metadata" search type even include? (Title, Author, Contributor, Editor, Date [which format?] etc.) | Oct 25 05:25 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Is there any reason that Title and Author were not provided as separate types? | Oct 25 05:25 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Techrights — DST Still Needs to Get Abolished | Oct 25 05:41 | |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: There is also bugs in search form: | Oct 25 05:41 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Basically if I entered one a query on one field, say "Andy Farnell" *with* quotes as Metadata match (without clicking "Search"); | Oct 25 05:41 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: then add another field (by clicking "+"), and put "Vegan" without quotes as another Metadata match (again, without clicking "Search"); | Oct 25 05:41 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: then add another field (by clicking "+"); | Oct 25 05:41 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: but then I changed my mind and clicked the "-" button on any field (which one doesn't matter); | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: I would find that it wasn't the just field I clicked "-" at that got removed; | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: every of them would get removed instead-- the search form would be entirely reset, which is quite annoying. | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: . | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: And in the process of confirming the reproducing procedure of this bug, I found another bug: | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: basically if I did the same steps as I described above, | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: but at the point that "I changed my mind": rather than clicking "-" on the last empty field and run into aforementioned bug... | Oct 25 05:42 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: I clicked "Search" button instead. | Oct 25 05:43 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: I expected that the search engine would simply ignore (or automatically strip out) the last empty field and conduct the search with the remaining two queries; | Oct 25 05:43 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: but no, that did not happen: | Oct 25 05:43 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: It simply returned nothing (not even "Nothing found" message), with the search form completely reset (again); | Oct 25 05:44 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: requring me to re-enter everything, doubling the annoyance. | Oct 25 05:44 |

| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Another problem with the search is it seems to insist on HTTPS for some reason. | Oct 25 05:51 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: I believe this problem is due to misconfiguration; but the consequence is real: | Oct 25 05:51 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Having this problem means anyone who're viewing Techrights on vintage browsers are currently barred from using search function. | Oct 25 05:51 |

| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: "yees, we got some suggestions re mobile", I don't use espionage slab; in my case, the "gemini line ending" problem makes older articles jarring to read on *laptop*. | Oct 25 05:57 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: "and without using mactros", it need not be automatic. Manually adding [root-relative] new-part link to existing parts is what people do on webpages, blogs, and forums since forever. | Oct 25 05:57 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: "it's hard to update all the previous parts", if the amount of effort is the main problem (especially for longer series); | Oct 25 05:57 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: then instead of beginning an article with a list that link to every other parts like you often do, | Oct 25 05:57 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: a minimal approach of linking to Next/Previous article in series could be used instead. | Oct 25 05:58 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: ^ Which will require [manual] updating of only single previous article in the series, when a new article dropped. | Oct 25 05:58 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: And in case of "The Car Drives You" series specifically: | Oct 25 06:02 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: in most articles there, you don't even have to add new text to link the next entry: | Oct 25 06:02 |
| xwindows | schestowitz[TR2]: Many of them already end with the last paragraph saying "In the next part..."-- that "the next part" should have been a hyperlink to the actual next-part article. | Oct 25 06:02 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <xwindows> schestowitz[TR2]: a minimal approach of linking to Next/Previous article in series could be used instead. | Oct 25 06:07 |

| xwindows | "sometimes you can link to outline or conclusion parts", linking to the end is awkward, but yes it works. | Oct 25 06:09 |
| xwindows | ^ Though a problem is it only works when the series already ended. | Oct 25 06:10 |
| xwindows | "in his ssg, pocock does 'tag' pages", I was about to ask about this too. | Oct 25 06:10 |
| xwindows | Since you're doing series-article semi-often now; it might be worth adding "Series" field, and have your SSG track it [and create dedicated index for each series]? | Oct 25 06:11 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | that would add bloat | Oct 25 06:12 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and bloat is enemy of sustainability | Oct 25 06:12 |
| xwindows | (I think this is less screwy than doing tags, because Tags field usually allow more than one tags-- and that can become a lot more "bloat") | Oct 25 06:13 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | alt approach | Oct 25 06:14 |
| xwindows | Well, I do think there's tradeoff to be made here; | Oct 25 06:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | make a sidebar | Oct 25 06:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | search for each page | Oct 25 06:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | for rrelated pages | Oct 25 06:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and then add them there | Oct 25 06:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | "offline" | Oct 25 06:14 |
| xwindows | That's even more effort and less precise than having explicit single-value Series field in SSG database. | Oct 25 06:15 |
| xwindows | Single value series field is O(1) operation; on each article, it either link to series index or not. | Oct 25 06:16 |
| xwindows | While search-for-all-realated is O(n) operation; on each article, SSG had to search through entire database, and link to every matches. | Oct 25 06:17 |
| xwindows | ^ When doing full rebuild, it will turn into O(n^2) operation; which is just ugh. | Oct 25 06:18 |
| xwindows | ^^ Especially when considering the amount of backissues Techrights has in last 2 decades. | Oct 25 06:19 |

| -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | Techrights — Microsoft Sort of Tried to Sell XBox Piecewise (Offloading Microsoft) | Oct 25 07:03 | |
| IsambardPrince | There was a Halo TV series. | Oct 25 07:03 |
| IsambardPrince | It was the only passable franchise on the xbox. The only thing that made it stand out from the other consoles. | Oct 25 07:03 |
| IsambardPrince | I did not think the xbox was a very well designed console. | Oct 25 07:04 |
| IsambardPrince | It was several times bigger and heavier than the Gamecube, over $100 more at launch (significant, especially back then), and didn't have a lot of good games. | Oct 25 07:04 |
| IsambardPrince | I played a demo xbox shortly after it was released and the only thing that made an impression on me about it was that the controller was about the size of my Sega Dreamcast, an observation which "Maddox" made on his blog later, unprompted by me. | Oct 25 07:05 |
| IsambardPrince | Even the Dreamcast had good games, especially the port of Quake III Arena, which was surprisingly playable over dial-up without lag. | Oct 25 07:06 |
| IsambardPrince | Many of the xbox games also suffered from Microsoft's desperation to get anything onto the console at all, including unstable framerates. | Oct 25 07:07 |
| IsambardPrince | A problem that also happened on the xbox 360 launch games. | Oct 25 07:07 |
| IsambardPrince | John had a revisioned xbox 360 console that didn't overheat so I got on it and played through the GTA V port. He had GTA V on the PS4 but I don't like Playstation controllers. | Oct 25 07:08 |
| IsambardPrince | Surprisingly, most of the game fit on the xbox 360 port. I think they had to get rid of the in-car viewpoint and part of the radio stations but it wasn't a bad port considering. | Oct 25 07:09 |
| IsambardPrince | The one thing Microsoft did get right about the xbox 360 was the controller, finally. | Oct 25 07:09 |
| IsambardPrince | Many video game systems have bad controllers. | Oct 25 07:09 |
| IsambardPrince | My two favorite were the xbox 360 and the nintendo gamecube. | Oct 25 07:10 |
| IsambardPrince | Sony's bad controller is just the bad controller from the PS1 with analog sticks. | Oct 25 07:10 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | many doogs have one human friend | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | you | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | unlike human friends | Oct 25 18:44 |
| IsambardPrince | I've heard of cats attacking burglars before. | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | you might be one of many friends they had | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and you use the word "owner" | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | so it's like a kid | Oct 25 18:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | but kids have other kid friends | Oct 25 18:44 |
| IsambardPrince | There was this one case where a burglar broke into this old lady's house and walked into the bedroom. | Oct 25 18:44 |
| IsambardPrince | And he got the cat jumping into his face and going gindu blades with the teeth and claws. | Oct 25 18:45 |
| IsambardPrince | That cat really fucked that guy up. But this sort of protective instinct is more common with dogs. | Oct 25 18:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Because dogs are a pack animal by nature. | Oct 25 18:45 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | big cats attack in groups | Oct 25 18:45 |
| IsambardPrince | With cats and particular people it's usually that the cat picks a favorite person, but isn't hostile to others, although that's not always the case. | Oct 25 18:46 |
| IsambardPrince | You end up with cats like Sonny Boy, my great-grandmother's cat. | Oct 25 18:46 |
| IsambardPrince | He was very gentle with her. | Oct 25 18:46 |
| IsambardPrince | But he stalked and attacked anyone else. | Oct 25 18:46 |
| MinceR | only lions attack in groups | Oct 25 18:46 |
| MinceR | other cats don't | Oct 25 18:46 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | right | Oct 25 18:46 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | that's what i had in mind | Oct 25 18:46 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | they pick on very large animals | Oct 25 18:47 |
| IsambardPrince | Cats are very good for the state of mental health. | Oct 25 18:47 |

| IsambardPrince | Soldiers in wars had "mascots", sort of like pets for that group, and sometimes they'd adopt a stray cat or dog in the middle of a war. | Oct 25 18:48 |
| IsambardPrince | There was this one cat, apparently, in WWII that ended up surviving the sinking of several ships, first a German one, and the British found the cat and took it, then the British ship got sunk and the Germans found it, and it went like this several times. | Oct 25 18:49 |
| IsambardPrince | But the cat ended up with the British. | Oct 25 18:49 |

| MinceR | Capture The Cat | Oct 25 18:49 |
| IsambardPrince | The cat ended up becoming something of a celebrity for his uncanny ability to survive so many ships being sunk by the other side and passing back and forth as the ship's cat for the Germans and the British. | Oct 25 18:50 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | wait | Oct 25 18:50 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | so the war was aboutr cats? | Oct 25 18:50 |
| IsambardPrince | Yeah, YOU TOOK MAH CAT!!! DIE DIE DIE!!!! | Oct 25 18:50 |
| IsambardPrince | You know, then you open up on them with the main guns. | Oct 25 18:50 |
| IsambardPrince | :D | Oct 25 18:50 |
| IsambardPrince | Then the same thing would happen in German, back and forth. | Oct 25 18:51 |
| IsambardPrince | All over a cat. | Oct 25 18:51 |
| IsambardPrince | Hitler really wanted their cat back. | Oct 25 18:51 |
| IsambardPrince | That's where the V2 program came in. | Oct 25 18:51 |
| IsambardPrince | He was just going to keep going until they got their cat. | Oct 25 18:52 |
| IsambardPrince | He really liked animals. | Oct 25 18:52 |
| MinceR | except for most humans | Oct 25 18:53 |
| MinceR | but i get that | Oct 25 18:53 |
| IsambardPrince | It got completely out of control, you know, to the point where they had a plan to dump counterfeit money to ruin the British economy, until they got the cat back. | Oct 25 18:53 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR, There's a Macintosh Wolfenstein 3d emulator that runs on Linux apparently. | Oct 25 18:58 |
| IsambardPrince | I'm going to try to get this working later. | Oct 25 18:58 |
| IsambardPrince | Macs were not a high priority for most game publishers back then so they got a port years later. | Oct 25 18:58 |
| IsambardPrince | In this case, that meant the port was better. | Oct 25 18:59 |
| IsambardPrince | It used a more advanced engine and had higher quality artwork. | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | lxo: honest question | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | will you or rms or fsf comment on the linux knerl and slop? | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | i asay | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | *say | Oct 25 18:59 |
| IsambardPrince | ECWolf looks a lot better than the original DOS engine though. | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | you because... linux-libre | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | rms because of criticism of slop | Oct 25 18:59 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and fsf because of setting example for gnu | Oct 25 19:00 |
| IsambardPrince | It smooths out the jaggies and things like that, runs at a better framerate. Most "Play Wolfenstein 3d Online" things usea version of dosbox that's running with WebAssemblies and stuff. | Oct 25 19:00 |
| IsambardPrince | So the timing is bad and it lags. | Oct 25 19:00 |
| IsambardPrince | You'd have to set the CPU cycles perfectly and then still account for the fact that WASM is always slower than native code and the browser input handler adds latency. | Oct 25 19:01 |

| IsambardPrince | Accepting a ton of slop code just means that you eventually get to a point where there's millions of lines nobody is familiar with, because they didn't write it. | Oct 25 19:19 |
| IsambardPrince | Then you have no maintainer who understands it. | Oct 25 19:19 |
| IsambardPrince | The further you go, the harder it is to come back. | Oct 25 19:19 |
| IsambardPrince | They toss out things that were written by humans, still work, aren't even big, and say it's because "nobody is maintaining it". | Oct 25 19:20 |
| IsambardPrince | Who is going to maintain a pile of millions of lines of, say, "Apple Silicon" drivers that they didn't write? | Oct 25 19:20 |
| IsambardPrince | I watched them throw out a 90s file system the other day that was about 1,000 lines of code. It wasn't very intrusive they just said it was hard to make conforming changes when the rest of the tree updated? | Oct 25 19:22 |
| IsambardPrince | Harder than making conforming changes to millions of lines of slop that nobody even wrote? | Oct 25 19:22 |
| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Google Gemini makes typos. | Oct 25 19:23 |
| IsambardPrince | I asked it why it makes typos and it said it was trained on a bunch of random things from the Internet and some of that had typos in it. | Oct 25 19:24 |
| IsambardPrince | It doesn't look at individual letters or words, it just predicts what should come next. So in the context of a paragraph, if it's seen typos in a word before, more than one way to spell that word made it into the training, and could be generated later. | Oct 25 19:25 |
| IsambardPrince | When you train one of these coding agents on all of github, they will come across many bugs and examples of inefficient code, then they suggest bugs and inefficient code. | Oct 25 19:26 |
| IsambardPrince | The people who accept that generated code bring in bugs that they don't understand because instead of having to sit down and write it line by line based on their own understanding, they get something that a robot tinkered with until it built and passed some automated tests, usually tests that the bot wrote. | Oct 25 19:26 |
| IsambardPrince | It's not going to suggest code you can rely on, it will suggest code that probably works, but maybe not very well. | Oct 25 19:27 |
| IsambardPrince | And then because you absorbed a ton of it at once and aren't familiar with any of it, you will spend years dealing with bug reports in your stolen code. | Oct 25 19:27 |
| IsambardPrince | So you'll have to go back and ask coding agents how to fix it too. | Oct 25 19:27 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <IsambardPrince> schestowitz[TR2], Google Gemini makes typos. | Oct 25 19:28 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | bad grammar too | Oct 25 19:28 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], So I ended up doing a flu, covid, RSV test. All negative. | Oct 25 21:43 |
| IsambardPrince | So it's something else. | Oct 25 21:43 |
| IsambardPrince | I also bought some off brand Mucinex and some Vicks Severe cough drops. | Oct 25 21:43 |
| IsambardPrince | I bought a bag of Halls yesterday and Halls are reformulated now and half as strong as they used to be. | Oct 25 21:43 |
| IsambardPrince | So they do nothing for a sore throat unless you stuff two of them in your mouth at once. | Oct 25 21:43 |
| IsambardPrince | Went by McDonald's. I ordered a deluxe spicy mccrispy chicken sandwich. They didn't put the spicy sauce on it, so they remade it. I don't know why. They could have just handed me a small container of the sauce. | Oct 25 21:44 |
| IsambardPrince | But then they handed it back with no tomatoes, so I mentioned it and they handed me a small container of tomatoes. | Oct 25 21:44 |
| IsambardPrince | The guy at the cash register did not know how to use a receipt coupon. | Oct 25 21:45 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR, I was reading about Operation Werwolf. | Oct 25 23:13 |
| IsambardPrince | Apparently, Nazi Germany threw together some plans for an insurgency after the war, but it didn't go anywhere. | Oct 25 23:14 |
| IsambardPrince | There was no serious planning for what happened after they lost the war until about 6 months before the surrender. | Oct 25 23:14 |
| MinceR | it was unnecessary anyway, as the orcs continued most of what the germans did | Oct 25 23:14 |
| MinceR | but according to the allies, that was A-OK | Oct 25 23:14 |
| IsambardPrince | I think that was a big mistake in the movie adaptation of Moonraker. | Oct 25 23:16 |
| IsambardPrince | They should have kept Drax and the Werwolf plot from the book. | Oct 25 23:17 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, AT&T posted about the iPhone Duo on Facebook. | Oct 25 23:23 |
| IsambardPrince | I replied: | Oct 25 23:23 |
| IsambardPrince | According to 9to5Mac, people who bought the $2000 iPhone in the past day or so have already managed to crack the screen, some before the setup program was even done running. The defect leaves a device that's as expensive as a mortgage payment with a white line running through the center. | Oct 25 23:23 |
| IsambardPrince | These Tide Evo laundry pods have a very strong smell to them. | Oct 25 23:43 |

| IsambardPrince | MinceR, Some of the Apple systems over the years were pretty okay for their time. | Oct 25 23:44 |
| IsambardPrince | But they've had many more bad designs than good ones. | Oct 25 23:44 |
| IsambardPrince | The Macbook Neo is an interesting idea. | Oct 25 23:45 |
| IsambardPrince | At the correct price point. | Oct 25 23:45 |
| IsambardPrince | But it serves a purpose. | Oct 25 23:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Apple isn't making a fortune getting that into your home, it establishes a foothold. | Oct 25 23:45 |
| IsambardPrince | Then you have one Apple product that doesn't work very well unless you buy others, including an iPhone. | Oct 25 23:46 |
| IsambardPrince | And there's no guarantee that they keep making new models of the Neo later or at roughly the same price. | Oct 25 23:46 |
