I remember the icon, but I never knew that was it’s purpose.

I hope it was Klingon, for the the glory of the empire.

Is the bit of wire coat hanger in front of the FPV drone arming the RPG (or whatever explosive it’s carrying)

Haha after an all night session back when I was in high school I did the very same upon hearing a tractor in a field nearby.

Experts say the decision to experiment with xylazine, medetomidine or other chemicals in illicit street drug combinations likely reflect which substances are cheap, poorly regulated and readily available.

Money. I think there’s always new customers. But I do see your point.

I don’t know why he’s talking about the wild west when he’s clearly holding some sort of face hugging alien.

The first view of the rocket fired from the Strela-10 is really good.

On the one hand yes, he’s perfectly free to do whatever he likes without judgment (as long as its legal). Although, one could argue it’s rather eco unfriendly to ship all that food instead of eating the food that’s been prepared in his all-inclusive hotel and thereby creating more waste.

On the other hand, somehow, the Daily Mail has found out about his plan and he’s happily posed for or submitted photos to the paper. Having put himself deliberately in the spotlight I think he’s ok with people talking about him.

The French are on our side.

And TBF, I don’t think they’ve invaded anyone for quite a while nor had colossal losses.

Good point. I haven’t bought a motherboard in a while but must admit I don’t remember ever having the CMOS battery separate.

Batteries are sometimes shipped with those little plastic tabs that prevent the connection (so the battery won’t drain whilst it’s sitting in the warehouse). Could they ship the battery as you found it because of that?

Lol. I just found it in my works GitHub instance. I asked what files a ticket refers to and it just returned an error message.

I think that’s a good idea, my solution is to mute group chats and check them when I’m free, but it’s not ideal for the reasons you’ve mentioned.

In whatsapp there’s only the option to mute the chat.

In discord there’s granular level of control that allows me to mute everything but direct notifications (@d00ery).

But if you implemented such a feature, how would you limit it?

i.e. one notification for the first message and then mute all replies for 5 mins? What happens when that one person who always replies an hour later messages?

Could we use AI to check if the conversation is still related to the original message?

From a dev perspective there’s all sorts of solutions but I wonder how would one find the sweet spot.

I think the NPU is supposed to use less power then processing units not specifically designed for the task.

I use a computer for my job reporting trial data in a university, it’s nothing super secret or very special but there’s no need to advertise exactly what I do or where I work.

And yes, the idea that a locally run LLM that tracks my documents, meetings, code, etc is something that I think could be very useful. That’s why I said the “concept of Recall” is cool.

I deleted a whole paragraph from my original comment which explained my dislike and lack of trust in Microsoft, but hoped I could get away with just the mention of not upgrading to win11 and that this would reflect my feelings and show I’m a savvy user.

the NPU will handle all of this processing locally, allowing user data to stay “private, local, and secure on just the device.” On a Copilot+ PC with the minimum 256GB SSD, Microsoft says Recall will take up about 25GB of disk space and store around three months’ worth of events.

I haven’t upgraded to win11 and I’ll leave it to the last moment. However I have also had a go at running LLMs locally and I think the concept of Recall is pretty cool.

I agree with you. A sheep and some sheep are the same to me 😂

Let me go count all my Lego.

As a fan of both authors I’d just like to point out the quote is from Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

I’ve never really thought about it and I don’t have the vocabulary to describe it, but they have similar humour in the way they look at humans and social interaction.

Good point! I haven’t been reading enough manga to remember it’s from the right to the left …
