  • Has someone who can mostly read Greek and English. I hate this. I hate this so much.

  • This assumes IBM will act rationally, which doesn’t have much recent precedence.

  • Oh. I like this idea. This is the kind of thing AI would be good for.

  • I mean. They do. But his only current relevance is saying stupid shit every few months to try and make the news. No one gives a shit about his projects anymore.

  • It's funny. When I first heard about couples sharing their location with each other, I thought it was so creepy. I trust my SO, why the fuck would I want to spy on them?!?! But then, we had some family members develop some health problems where it could be life or death to know where they were, so we started sharing our locations. And now I find it comforting to open up maps and double check to make sure they are still okay, and how long till their home, etc.

  • This is what I use too. But, I would like to not have a Google device as part of my chain. (I say on my Pixel phone, with stock android).

  • I really hope we enter another AI winter.

  • Hard disagree: well maintained vintage audio gear sounds better than 150 dollar headphones. But, I would usually rather listen to a sound system than headphones.

  • I liked She-Hulk. It should have been better. But I did really enjoy the show. It was too preachy, it wasn't flushed out as well as it should have been. But some of the things were funny, and the story was okay. I think of given another season it could have found its voice...or it could have ended up like that 90s show and the second season was worse than the first

  • I use to give people shit that the default ls command was from 2002. They finally fucking upgraded it in like 2020. But yeah. That's some old fucking software.

  • I have had some truley awful CFA sandwiches. When they are good they are fine. But Everytime I go to one it is really hit or miss. So why bother?

  • I guess I'm not sure what you mean by "Ancient Conflict". But the Levant was historically a strategic piece of land that biodged Anatolia/Mesopotamia with Egypt. Control over this region has been a constant battle through out recorded history.

    As I admitted in my first response if you mean something like control over a homeland/holy land, like the conquest of Canaan, yeah that's a relatively recent thing. But as far as battle ground, I think you should think more about what those battles mean in context of history. Van de Mieroop has a great History of the Ancient Near East that I would highly recommend. Mostly because ancient near eastern history is really cool.

  • I actively only monitor a couple of channels for music, but try and be open to new sources. I follow a couple of genres on Bandcamp (most of these are bad, but it's fun to hear new things). I follow MrDoom666, StonedMeadowOfDoom, and Atmospheric Black Metal Albums on YouTube.

    I get enough music to listen to. I ask friends for what they are listening to, and I know I am going to be missing some music, and that's okay.

    I don't listen to everything that comes through the channels I follow, and will quickly turn it off if I'm not liking it.

  • I think Colorado could force AZ to do what they want just by threatening to turn off the water.

  • When's the last time you used Wayland? I tried a few years back and there were quite a few paper cuts.

    I've been using sway for about six months and there is one obnoxious paper cut, and one thing that just doesn't work.

    The paper cut for me is a java app that won't render menus correctly. Most menus work, but there are a few that don't draw properly.

    The one thing that still doesn't work is deskflow.

    Screen sharing with zoom and Google meet and jitsi work fine. Keyboard input changes work fine, and most things are just hunky dory.

  • This is what I use

  • Uh.... Have you tried Fish? Or even a modern ZSH? Like oh my ZSH?

    I guess I don't want notepad tools. But I can set my key bindings in ZSH to vi bindings and do things like:

     bash
        
    $ cat <<EOF | sparql --data=some.ttl --query=/dev/stdin
    SELECT ?s ?p ?o
    WHERE {
      ?s ?p ?o . 
    } 
    LIMIT 10
    EOF
    
    
      

    And that gives me a real basic text editor. Granted with syntax highlighting on, it thinks I'm trying to do ZSH scripts. But if you needed a ZSH script it would be perfect.

    Second, tab works great for auto complete, it even suggests stuff (as long as you have that enabled, or the command supports it. Some clis do not have support for auto complete, but the shell does)

    Modern shells are pretty fucking awesome.

  • I quite listening to a podcast that went hard into streaming crypto coin as a way to boost income. I think I like the idea in principle. But there is something that smells funny to me about cryptocurrency. And I don't think it actually works that well in principle. Funding open source and open access content is tough.
