  • Give it time. Right now they don't want the balance sheet to show how expensive this experiment was, but cheap devs will only get them so far. Eventually they'll need to pay someone properly to fix what the AI and the monkeys broke.

  • Hey, they're just being honest about their high sodium diet.

  • I was leaning toward Collingwood (or any inner suburb north of the Yarra really). I can definitely see Brunswick.

  • I did pick up an Aussie city vibe. Which street is it?

  • You might want to check out Bazzite. It aims to smooth out the gaming experience significantly.

    I don't even play on Linux these days but I use Bazzite (Developer Experience) because the immutable base gives me peace of mind and all the gaming support helps when I have to use something like bottles.

    Depending on what you want to do, it may require you to get comfortable with docker (or podman, but practically the same), but because this is part of the OS's paradigm they give you all the tools to make it easy.

  • My family insist on using the fireplace because they have some backward ideas about it being natural and cheaper because there's so much wood around here. They use it way more than necessary, and use more wood than necessary, so a load runs out very fast and it often gets so hot they have to open the windows.

    I like the aesthetic, but it's a massive waste of time and money. Sourcing wood is expensive. Stacking it takes a lot of time, during which I could be doing productive work.

    I'm sure the smoke is affecting our health, too. If I go for an early run on a cold morning the smoke hanging in the air makes it much harder to breath.

    I might understand if there wasn't a very good heat pump right there. The running costs of it are barely noticeable.

  • I didn't know Tasmania has bumblebees until I moved here. You don't get them in the rest of the country. They're such adorable insects.

  • Chipmunks did it for me. They look and act so much like cartoon critters I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

  • I've been lucky enough to see a lot of animals in the wild, but platypuses always evaded me. I even lived by a river for a year, where everyone else saw them.

    About a week ago I finally spotted one in a nearby lake while going for a run. It was just happily swimming, diving, surfacing, repeat. I watched it for ages.

  • I saw people asking for ships you can walk around in for a long time now, but I never saw the appeal. With this update, I get it. These ships really feel like our own, and they didn't hold back the creative potential. I'm already building a flying restaurant.

  • Wait, this isn't even a new competition, and it's basically resurrected soviet propaganda? Truly bizarre.

  • I'm not surprised. Tiananmen Square taught us that local enforcement can't be trusted to put treads on heads.

    I've seen the difference in my own city when cops from out of state are used at protests.

  • I've done fact checking on LLM models for work before, and it quickly becomes evident that many models rely on Wikipedia as a heavily weighted source of truth.

    If LLMs have even a small role in producing Wikipedia content, the ouroborus of declining quality will accelerate.

  • "I'm a charm in the streets, and a strange in the sheets."

  • Soon we'll have generative AI that extrapolates the rest of the meeting, and that skip key will work. Very poorly, but someone will do it.

    Then everyone will log in to meetings, say hi, skip to the end, ask for a generated summary, log out. And nothing of value will be lost.

  • The broccoli and broccolini in my garden have grown so big it's hard to keep up. This means I'll sometimes eat bits that have begun flowering. I haven't noticed much difference in the taste.

  • Beat me to it. In the same spirit of collective animal nouns, then:

    Married to the Kangaroo

    Fish of Rock

  • Ew.
