Global namespace extremist. Defragment your communities!

  • I've patiently waited until the flashing guide for the roborock s8 was out, went to buy the s8 pro ultra, just to discover valetudo has dropped the support, because appearently a different version of the same robot was silently released, that would've been turned into a brick if I tried the installation procedure.

    Now I have a dumb robot. It does like 95% of what I expect it to do, but I might at least solder an ep32 to the top buttons so that scheduling through the home assistant would be possible

  • AI convincing someone he's neo from the movie Matrix, and can fly...

    Pretty shocking. Although I remember people saying the exact same thing 20 years ago, except the perpetrator was somehow Pokemon.

    I'm pausing the video now, because holy hell, it's an hour long, but this is already a pretty bad start.

  • A user copies it without scrutiny, pastes it into the omnibox

    User has to type or paste the malicious prompt manually into the box. This is not a bug.

    The whole article is a marketing piece to promote NeuralTrust.

  • There's plenty to worry about in the environment we evolved in. And I'm not even australian. :)

  • Last time I tried an electric, there was a 0.5s lag between me stepping on the pedal and motor starting to spin. I got used to it pretty quick, but on that first intersection I did not feel especially in controll of the whole situation.

  • And I think it's about time we do something about it!

  • Monstertrucks. I read it as monster trucks, but when I realized my miatake it was too late.

    What a way to start a weekend!

  • coffee grounds are essentially just a binder used in agar mix to harden it

    Oh, yes. I forgot about the agar. Is this the same thing that's used as a food for bacteria in a petri dish?

  • I remember a video where they've discussed the viability of 3d printed utensils. The conclusion was - don't. For the love of our bacterial lord, don't! It has too many pores for a life to grow in.

    I consoder this a part 2 of that story.

  • Those are beautiful, but jesus christ on a unicycle, how did they end up supporting klarna? Offering people loans for a tea cup feels insulting.

  • This story is about the UK government screwing its own subjects. US is not involved in any of this. Ironic, given that US is involved in almost everything these days.

  • I'm at 1:14 and already smell the bullshit, let's continue...

    5:33 and there are already 2 very close doomsday dates proposed. The religious vibes intensify...

    6:31 She correctly assumes that various systems are interconnected, and will crumble if one falls down, but does not seem to account for the one strength human beings posess (we suck in all other aspects), and that's adaptation and our ability to coordinate when immediate short term danger is under way.

    6:42 Overcomplicated societies crumbling under their own weight! That's more like my jam. Although, that's not a bug, it's a feature.

    12:45 Appeal to nature, appeal to go back to the good old times.

    Jesus christ, this has been a 15 minutes long setup for a logical fallacy.

  • Some people stuggle to learn a second language their entire lives. These badasses did it for a gig!

  • That sounds like a fancy speak for a Trusted Platform Module. Isn't some kind of TPM mandatory to obtain a google certification for a new device?

  • I want to see this guy as an NPC in some game.

  • The dawn of the 4G will forever be remembered as the time our civilization forgot how to make phones that can make phone calls. I feel embarrassed every time I randomly think about VoLTE.

  • There's no legal solution to a technological problem. Laws are always temporary, for better or worse.

  • people have stories how the dev is an ass

    If an opensource project has an author who's not a jerk, that's when you get suspicious!

  • Speaking from the evolutionary perspective, we've dealt with influenza successfully. I'm still glad I wasn't there to watch us win, though.
