Damn! You’re a great teacher, that was so easy it didn’t even feel like learning!

I hadn’t heard of Tesseract until now. Looks hellishly messy, the interface is nasty.

This happens in Europe too.
A few years back I had to go to my company’s northernmost office. It took about 20 hours of travel, 19 hours of which was on trains, and I didn’t even reach my destination. The train couldn’t get far enough because of the snow, and was replaced with a bus. Only I couldn’t go on it, and so my company shelled out about another $170 for a taxi from one town to the other.
All in all, trip there and back costed ~$500, not counting the taxi.
Meanwhile, looking now, I could take a flight instead. I’d have to take a train or a bus to the airport, that’ll take about two hours of course, but it’ll cost me about $30. The flight will take 1½ hours, and will cost $150 including the trip back. So, about $210 for the entire trip.

If we were to refuse to take action because the outcome won’t be a perfect solution, we’re doomed to just never take action and continue being pissed on.

It’s not so much overusing as wasting. Capitalism has lead to an overproduction of low quality garbage that ultimately ends up in landfills. Fast fashion brands that produce more low quality clothing than they can sell, just for unbought good to end up in landfills. Food that is thrown away because there’s a surplus that can’t be sold because it doesn’t meet particular standards despite being perfectly edible.
We could optimise processes, make waste and overproduction the more expensive alternative. We don’t, however, because it’d lead to lower profits and we hold up profits above all else.
The average person doesn’t really need to travel less. A family of 2-4 people commuting by jet with another ~100 passengers once or twice a year is going to have way lower emissions than say, Elon Musk, Taylor Swift, or fucking Linus Techtips.
Sure, individuals can change their habits, and in large swathes it will make things better. But it won’t fix anything, because the problem was never the average person. The problem lies with corporations and the mega rich. They’re the ones that need to go.
- Comment on Microsoft Teams status 3 weeks ago:
For me it’d be better to just run the stupid Teams app on my work phone, but that’s always been a hassle because it locks itself and then I don’t always get the notifications. My primary work laptop only has 16 gigs of RAM, and having Teams eagerly gobble up a significant portion of that is highly frustrating.
There’s been several occasions where I’ve been building or debugging something, RAM being tight, and the OOM killer correctly deduces that Teams has to go. Makes me laugh every time I finally check back on Teams and realise it’s been dead for a while.

This chain was really funny, and it has brightened my day. Thank you.
- Comment on The year is 2036 and I’ve been brought in for questioning because my PlayStation Plus subscription lapsed well over 3 months ago. 3 weeks ago:
World of Ass? I was playing that a lot the other month, absolutely bananas that it requires an online connection.
There’s the Peacock Project though, which lets you host your own server. Ultimately that kind of thing shouldn’t be required but it’s nice that players have made their own thing. Like what do you mean I need to be online and connected to their services to progress in the campaign and unlock new things in my singleplayer game?

This is stirring a memory. I swear there was some kids film or show where a toilet spoke, something like “thank you for flushing away your poop.”

It is a post from 4chan so unfortunately that kind of language is to be expected. I’m hoping people here don’t use i, or wish to normalise it.

Fuck me, that’s such a good solution.
My flat has all windows facing west-southwest, and I live on the top floor under the roof. I’ve had 30 degrees inside when it’s been 24 outside today. Tomorrow’s going to go up to 29. I’m going to boil in here.

This is the way to do it. You need a lot of it to get the full protection that it offers.
- Comment on What is Exaptation, Alex? 5 weeks ago:
I mean they can definitely overlap. I want to live so I want and need my medication. That kind of thing.
I think my amusement is more that “those who want to take very bitter medicines” sounds to me more like they’re doing it on a whim. :)
- Comment on What is Exaptation, Alex? 5 weeks ago:
I like the phrasing of “want” rather than “need.”

- Comment on Map of all AI data center in Europe 1 month ago:
I am aware, but it’d be disingenuous to say that we’re not training LLMs in Europe.
- Comment on Map of all AI data center in Europe 1 month ago:
Eh. I’m not sure if we have any data centres dedicated specifically for training and running LLMs, but we do have data centres that do both.
