There’s nothing worse than taking extreme measures to troubleshoot a problem with a third party system that’s out of your control.

If you haven’t yet, check out the latest steamos update - they finally added battery charge limits it won’t help a dying battery get better, but it may stave off the demise.
- Comment on How can I properly learn deaf sign languages? 2 weeks ago:
Well, looks like the National Institute for the Deaf (NTID) had at one point partnered with Georgia Tech on an app, PopSign, but that download link doesn’t work anymore.
Similarly, NTID had a free class, but it got cancelled.
I’m a little surprised there isn’t more from the first (and largest) national technical dead institute…

I love my steam deck. It’s the reason why I finally ditched Windows for Linux on my gaming PC.
This past week I got into emulation on it and have been shocked at how well it has been performing.

- Comment on "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books" 3 weeks ago:
Definitely not OP, but I wouldn’t mind remasters of the first game to address the wonky controls. Witcher 2 was fine, but trying to go from Witcher 3 back to Witcher 1 for the first time was not a great experience for me.

Oooh, the rare reverse Jacob’s Ladder scenario!

Damn, I need to descale my machine. It’s been… quite a long time since I last dealt with it.
I have a hard enough time remembering to flush the group head every few weeks.

Yeah! Don’t use power plants for crypto. Use it for AI, as god intended.

It has been over a quarter of a century since SimCity 3000 was released in 1999.
First off, rude.
Secondly, great write up. :)

Bench seats were in cars too! In the early 2000s I had a 1987 Chevy Caprice Classic. That thing was a boat with a couch for a front seat.
- Comment on Google is replacing Google Assistant with Gemini | TechCrunch 2 months ago:
I only use voice to interact with my phone when I’m driving and want to set a destination, or if I’m at home and can’t find my phone.
Somehow I doubt that AI will help tell me my phone fell off the nightstand and is half way under the bed.

If you haven’t seen it, find the Galaxy Quest documentary - it’s a delight.

I know it doesn’t exist, but I would love it if the Galaxy Quest “Fuck This” release would come out.

- Comment on The past 18 months have seen the most rapid change in human written communication ever 3 months ago:
I’d say it was weird, not shit. It was hard to find niche sites, but once you did they tended to be super deep into the hobby, sport, movies, or games.
SEO (search engine optimization) was probably the first step down this path, where people would put white text on a white background with hundreds of words that they hoped a search engine would index.

I’ve tried using an LLM for coding - specifically Copilot for vscode. About 4 out of 10 times it will accurately generate code - which means I spend more time troubleshooting, correcting, and validating what it generates instead of actually writing code.
- Comment on The past 18 months have seen the most rapid change in human written communication ever 3 months ago:
I was just commenting on how shit the Internet has become as a direct result of LLMs. Case in point - I wanted to look at how to set up a router table so I could do some woodworking. The first result started out halfway decent, but the second section switched abruptly to something about routers having wifi and Ethernet ports - confusing network routers with the power tool. Any human/editor would catch that mistake, but here it is.
I can only see this get worse.

Okay, what you do is get one of these bad boys.
Teslong 50FT Sewer Camera, Dual Lens Borescope with Light: a.co/d/5bc14GD
I have the 14 foot variety and it’s glorious. Not only can I gross out friends and family with pictures of my nasal cavity, I can also shove it in long holes like my sump pump drain and see what’s what.
