Good news: ChatGPT is pointing a lot of people toward Soundslice.

Bad news: It's telling people Soundslice has a feature that doesn't actually exist.

Here's my story about how we added a feature purely because ChatGPT was telling people it existed.

Tim O’Reilly: “AI has adopted colonialism as its business model”.
Strong words! But he explains: “Extract resources from others and use it to enrich yourself and your customers at the expense of those whose resources you have taken, without giving much back.”
Guilty as charged I would say.

@sven_giegold ich finde es ja gut, dass Sie jetzt hier sind. Aber bitte machen Sie nicht jedes Nomen zu einem Hashtag. Das wäre für den Lesefluss zu begrüßen. Dankeschön! Und ansonsten stimme ich zu.

@joelanman it's not tied to Signal. I think it has to do with the Chrome render engine which is used in Electron, which is the basis for Signal Desktop and similar apps (e.g. Slack), in conjunction with a Mac with wide gamut screen.

You can also try this page with HDR images in Chrome on Mac and it should also cause your Mac to do weird things: wide-gamut.com/test/image-hdr

On one hand AI-vibe coding spaghetti code and websites that download megabytes and megabytes of JS may seem wasteful. But what if the resulting sites are so inaccessible that many products aren’t even sold at all?

Inaccessible websites are a clear sustainability win in the long run!

TIL why (in British English) we don't use a dot after the “St” short form of “Street”.

The “t” in “St” is *not* the second letter of “Street”, but the sixth. So it's not an abbreviation (like “Prof.” for “Professor”, “etc.” in “et cetera”, etc.), it's a contraction (like “Dr” in “Doctor”, “Mr” in “Mister”, “St” in “Saint” and so on) and contractions don't have a dot.

🤯

I assumed it was just a weird English thing, but turns out I found the only language feature that's entirely consistent :flan_wink:

@tante Das hier ist das Problem, das ich gerade habe, inklusive Anleitung zum Fixen: support.zencastr.com/en/articl

@tante Der Browser/Zencastr speichert das nicht im Dateisystem, sondern in einer IndexedDB, weswegen Du die Dateien vermutlich nicht auf der Platte findest.

@tante Und im Zencastr unter dem vorhin genannten Link bekommst Du bei Deiner Spur keine Option, irgendwas nachträglich hochzuladen?

@MoritzGlantz @sarajw @SarahGross An alternative would be to downgrade to, say, Windows 7. That would make the machine snappy again. I just don't know if current Firefox + NVDA still support it.

@spackmat Gnaaarrr... wobei die Strecke am Rhein lang ja schon schön ist. Aber das will man dann trotzdem nicht.

Ja, hätte ich gewusst, dass Du da runter auf dem Weg bist, wäre das eine fantastische Gelegenheit gewesen, mal wieder länger zu quatschen. Aber vielleicht kriegen wir das ja auch so nochmal hin. Kann ja einfach mal zur HSD kommen.

Wünsche Dir für heute erst einmal viel Geduld und eine durchgängig funktionierende Weiterfahrt.

@spackmat da hätte ich Dich nach Frankfurt mitnehmen können, wo ich per Auto nach 2,5h Mittags- und Ladepause gemacht habe. Sehr schade, der Zustand der Bahn, und wie man liest wird das alles nicht besser :(

@sarajw okay.

I've been a Windows User since 1995 and only switched to Mac in 2023, and I agree that no matter how big of a machine you throw at it, it's gotten really sluggish. I think Microsoft has pretty much lost its focus, chasing after Cloud and AI services in the recent years ☹️
