Is it the one that wants to criminalise family planning, and mocks kids for loving their parents between cracking the whip over their heads on the production line? 'Cause it sounds like it might be that one.

I didn’t know you can monkeys paw science
I don’t know what the other guy is referencing, but I’ve been keeping an eye on a company called LiquidPiston, who are developing a modified Wankel, and the seals are one of the problems they talk about tackling. This article from Ars is kinda recent and goes into it a bit: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/11/this-inside-out-design-solves-most-of-the-rotary-engines-problems/
The opposite of staying together for the kids

Which is to say, it does on my client:
It might be useful to include how you’re accessing Lemmy. I use Voyager on Android, and lemmy.world in my browser.
Not Russian territory anymore, is it? 😈
Yeah, end to end encryption means the network operators can’t read the messages sent over their network. That’s fine. We catch pedos all the time without having to violate everyone’s privacy, I wish people would stop acting like it’s necessary to outlaw encryption in order to “protect the children”.
Golden Orb Weavers are common in Australia. I took this pic back in 2016 to send to some of my friends back in the US who find a kind of intense fascination in spiders (and also in avoiding them). Note the banding on the legs, same as yours:
Editors know that audiences want to read words (like these) written by a person. While suitable for a summary, the bland, “mid” content generated by an AI lacks a human touch. It’ll do in a pinch, but leaves no one particularly satisfied.
That human touch has never had a rival. Now that it does, it has instantly become the most valuable thing for a reader to experience.
What rival? Aside from that, the writer is correct: AI-generated text is not creative in the slightest. It has no idea how to tell a story (no ideas at all, really), and the elements of that are interwoven through all writing, journalistic or otherwise. Yes, even technical manuals and academic papers benefit from tenets of the art of storytelling, if they’re written to hold the reader’s attention.
Skipping all the supply-chain drama (suffice it to say DEF CON and Entropic, this year’s badge maker, had contract disputes), this is why the dev was removed:
Despite all that disagreement, DEF CON said it was still willing to have Grinberg, who is not an Entropic employee, join a panel to discuss the badge’s concept and development – at least until it came out that Grinberg slipped an Easter egg into the badge firmware during the Entropic/DEF CON beef as a protest.
Pressing the FN button to open a menu, selecting ‘About’ and pressing ‘A’, then pressing ‘Select’ will show the egg. It’s understood that Grinberg didn’t like that Entropic had been scrubbed from the device, the fight over payment, and all mention of the biz working on the badge dropped from the show’s publicity, and so had the egg included to display Entropic’s logo and ask for Bitcoin donations.
The event organizers were not happy that an unexpected feature, particularly the call for donations, was added to the software.
Regardless of who you think was in the right, this was terribly unprofessional and looks like the covert addition of adware to a product even if you personally wouldn’t call it adware. Doing it without the customer’s knowledge puts it firmly on the wrong side of the fence.
There’s still no real understanding of LLMs’ tendency to hallucinate, but that’s not exactly unknown in human developers and everyone copes. As the old saying goes: Berkeley gave us Unix and acid, and that’s no coincidence.
I don’t have a point, this just made me smirk.
It’s a good hill. Stubbs’ Spicy BBQ for me, or I’m going hungry.
One problem with the fediverse at the moment is there seems to be a wide variance in feature support between clients and servers so it’s nearly impossible to guarantee media (even static images, sometimes) will display as intended for everyone.
I don’t have a solution, just noting it. Though the webm you posted looks and works great for me, in Voyager on Android 🙌
How about “it’s usually got at least a little poo on it”?
I mean I know it’s not particularly effective, but if it were true of something like ice cream I bet sales would drop. (Tangentially related: https://www.pedestrian.tv/news/coogee-bay-hotel-gelato-poo-2008/)
If your friends didn’t care, fine I guess, it was their wedding after all. If you don’t understand why this makes you look selfish and callous though, then you’re not the kind of person I’d want at any party, let alone a wedding.
And the “or something like that”, too! Though, if you really did hold those beliefs, “or something like that” is about the best understanding anyone could expect, so maybe not…
You would not believe the downvotes I’ve gotten for saying this exact thing. I’m not a parent, but I do take the time to really consider what having to care for an infant would be like. I have been sleep deprived (edit: though, nowhere near the level of a new parent) so I perfectly understand how you could unintentionally cause the death of your kid. I think the hypothetical I gave was something like
You’re out running errands with the baby on your day off while the spouse is at work. You got maybe 4 hours of sleep between getting up to feed and change, and you’re lifting and carrying and running around all day. You stop home to drop off some shopping, you even leave the car running because you’ll be right out. Quick plop on the couch just to rest your legs and back, and then suddenly it’s five hours later and you start awake remembering you left the car running… and the baby in the car.
I know the terror I feel from that little hypothetical, I can’t believe it doesn’t hit close to home with actual parents too. And then, to be held socially - even if not legally - liable on top of your own guilt… an awful, horrible, soul-chilling situation to contemplate. I wish there were more compassion for new parents, I’d bet it’s more common than we think that parents’ bodies just shut down from the strain.

It’s chocolate, and this is America.
I thought exactly the same thing. I love Massive Attack but maybe they need a new name like Moderate Perturbation or something.
