Inevitable Waffles [Ohio]

Hey, great stuff! I just subscribed on AntennaPod. I’m going to give it a listen on my way to work tomorrow.

Hahahhahahahaha. What? A thoroughly dissatisfied electorate stayed home and let Trump win. What are you talking about?

Congrats! Do you use Android Auto? If so, how does it work for you without Google play?

see, my brain went to electrical engineering and thought the circuit doesnt supply enough current due to load and the light turned off lol

Both of these things can be true. You can’t discount the rich and their ability to do evil in multiple dimensions with one choice.

Or be like me and spend too much time/money finding a tool that might be good only to never use it because brain says, “I’m bored, find new hobby” every couple of business days.

Listen, you. Get out of my head and wallet. I do this and it makes me so sad. looks longingly at the paints I bought for models

True. That was my peak wrestling watching era.

You also have to consider the audience Trump is trying to please. Who is going to pull more people? Steve Mnuchin talking about Trump glowingly or a clown wrestler that Trump’s fans remember as a childhood hero backing their pick?

You can doubt all you like but we keep seeing the training data leaking out with passwords and personal information. This problem won’t be solved by the people who created it since they don’t care and fundamentally the technology will always show that lack of care. FOSS ones may do better in this regard but they are still datasets without context. Thats the crux of the issue. The program or LLM has no context for what it says. That’s why you get these nonsensical responses telling people that killing themselves is a valid treatment for a toothache. Intelligence is understanding. The “AI” or LLM or, as I like to call them, glorified predictive textbars, doesn’t understand the words it is stringing together and most people don’t know that due to flowery marketing language and hype. The threat is real.

As someone who frequently interacts with the tech illiterate, no they don’t. This sudden rush to put weighed text hallucination tables into everything isn’t that helpful. The hype feels like self driving cars or 3D TVs for those of us old enough to remember that. The potential for damage is much higher than either of those two preceding fads and cars actually killed poeple. I think many of us are expressing a healthy level of skepticism toward the people who need to sell us the next big thing and it is absolutely warranted.

I love Behind The Bastards and It Could Happen Here. They do have significant episode counts. BtB does a great and looooooong series on Henry Kissinger that I think is a prime example of what you are going to get. If you listen to that one and don’t enjoy, I would move on from them.

Yes, it does. I have used it successfully for months. My main issue is I need traffic data due to a new job and figuring which route to take. AFAIK, no other nav app has traffic data. That’s the only real bummer.

I really like this idea. I am going to mention it to my partner. We have been trying to craft a policy for it recently.

Toothpaste tube car for me, thanks.

I worked for a device manufacturer that used Linux under the hood. It happens. Depends on what the staff knows and likes when designing.

I joined the Matrix instance and the dev said, for some reason, F-droid has the old version (1.0.21)rather than current(1.0.27). They are updating the repos and working on it.

I feel like the media might actually be helping Bidens chances by broadcasting the very obvious bad things Trump plans on doing in office that he has said. Most Dems probably dont give a shit about Gaza so, while we have a problem with it, they dont.

I mean…yeah. It is why we are historically ignored by Dems.

Youtube tutorials on how to game Wendys out of free Baconators if you go in at 0135AM precisely are in our future.

Maybe it could be set asided or reserved for them?
