Cook/Apple just copy-pasting from Jobs' talk archives by now

Don't know why but woke up with the feeling that "plugin" will at one point be used a derogatory term

Backing up and archiving with yt-dlp is all fun and games until you accidentally get Youtube to ban your home connection :'(

Unreal/Epic is really churning out new videos from multiple fests... How are people supposed to keep up?!

Things are getting out of hand, a dependency with the size of 3.4GB? Crazy stuff

We moved closer to the sea like 6 months ago and now all garden equipment is rusty, and not in the good way...

Seems you literally need air-proof sheds or something to prevent the rust, or am I missing something obvious?

I don't want AI where I hand off work and do other things, I want AI to help me side-by-side, augmenting human intellect rather than replacing it.

I don't want AI to replace human connection, I want AI to help me find more human connections that match with myself, AI that helps me find local peeps

Ooh, Bevy 0.17 RC 1 available, time to refactor absolutely everything once again. Only ~1200 commits to go through this time, easy peazy

Trying out the new Gnome "wellness" stuff, which is kind of neat, gentle fades down the brightness, asks you to look away/take five minute stretcher.

Except when the "eye strainer break" is over and there is no fade back to full brightness so it just goes from 20% brightness to 100% in an instant.

Same here, 1Password made me stop and pause while thinking "is this actually the right domain?" a lot of times because the usual list of accounts didn't show up.

Not sure why people keep saying it's impossible to make it way harder to get phished, the tools are there
I might be an exception but with 1Password as my password manager AND that I don't click links for any notifications, I don't think I would. The former does the heavy lifting for me though with the domain validation piece. If I don't see a autofill pop up, I know something is up.

Suddenly remembered JFK Reloaded for some reason, playing it back when I was a wee child.

Fun fact: It was apparently made in the same game engine as Carmageddon was made with!

Are you a `rm -rf` person or a `rm -fr` person?

Is just me, or did the compilation times for plugins and code in general get A LOT slower with UE5 compared to UE4? Don't think I've ever seen such a dramatic difference before from a version upgrade, but it is huge machinery after all...

> They have largeish indoor markets that are more like a mini mall of individual shops like a butcher, produce, baker, cheese, even restaurants and bars

Always fun to read about Americans first experience of Europe and hearing what new concepts they've discovered

If you're not already using a password manager so you can avoid phishing scams, I really recommend you to look into starting doing so.

It doesn't really matter which one so much, as long as it displays a list of account when you're at the right domain, and doesn't show accounts when it's wrong

What agent CLIs are people playing around with? Been submitting every single prompt I've used to Claude Code, AMP, Codex, Gemini and Qwen simultaneously to compare the responses, what else am I missing to chuck into the pipeline?

I love how Google is asking me to change my subscription plan, sends me to a website that tells me to use Google One on my phone, which then asks me to manage my subscription inside the Gmail app. And you can only get to that place in Gmail by going via the Google One link :|

What is the best forum (yes, text forum, on the web, publicly accessible) for #ML/#AI discussions that doesn't belong to any specific projects or company?
