@indigoparadox almost no one knows this but the disc swap works on the OG PS2, also.

Just FWIW in case you have one and like those filters.

@anderseknert their “blog”is hilarious

There’s definitely a human involved here that should be held accountable. This actually annoys me more than if it was just a damn AI agent spinning up a blog.

@oppen OG HomePods are pretty good in a stereo pair.

I have a very high end audiophile system and HomePods hold up well for the money and size until you get to like 90+ decibels.

I think the second generation was a downgrade but I never tried them at home.

Apple’s headphones are also excellent now, both AirPods Max and Pro 2 (3 is bass heavy).

The competing wireless headphones I’ve used are really poor and agreed about Echo etc. being garbage.

I lament what happened to Tannoy.

@jonathankoren @SunnJax

@antiaall3s yeah it sounds like you live in an area that is real hostile for some reason, I don’t. That really sucks.

I’ve been the only one masking maybe half the time and I don’t get bothered, especially the last few years. If anyone is remotely a dick I just cough hard a few times and they literally scatter which is kind of funny. Big ‘ole smile under my mask.

But I wasn’t being glib or snarky, it took me a year or so to get care I should have before but once I did it’s been ok. Take care.

@antiaall3s anecdotally, I’ve been to medical facilities for many many things in the last 5 years and a KN95 has kept me completely Covid free.

Like, I’m talking 50? Visits between appointments and tests and bloodwork. Take care of your health and don’t let paralysis rob you of medical care.

I hope you get well soon.

@CStamp I love how big of a deal it is to move the station slightly.

And then never again.

I really hope it gets an HD treatment someday.

@nolan @richard5mith @gregr Right with you, tool use a year ago changed everything. Obviously more since then.

If this technology launched with the 2025 versions of the product vs 2023 there would be a lot less very smart people being willfully ignorant.

I don’t say this as a whole hearted blind endorsement, but nevertheless I believe it to be true.

It is painful, for many reasons.

@colincornaby how do large context models e.g. Gemini perform if you feed them the docs using something like sosumi.ai?

Genuinely curious, I haven’t gotten to Metal programming yet and for sure agree natively there would be huge struggle with newer frameworks.

@atomicpoet thanks for posting, will probably buy! 💕 ✨

Internet weather is spicy today.

So was the decision to have tacos for breakfast.

Coincidence? Perhaps :blobcatcoffee:

@gbsills @vkc don’t advocate for a bystander effect on the freaking internet maybe is a start?!

Anonymity gives these assholes power and hey, guess what, anonymity can help you stand up when you see it happening so the author doesn’t have to defend themselves for *existing*

JUMP. IN. AND. HELP.

Do not normalize this. Do not minimize it. By Doing so *you are part of the problem*

Really reflect on this before you type more words. Seriously.

@Daojoan at a startup I worked at a long time ago the founder gave a demo where he was on a call in one ear and had a headset on the other ear with the developer who was real-time fixing things and making sure he went via the happy path.

He slowly hovered over buttons and you’d hear screaming from across the building like “no!!” and then gracefully just move on.

It was kind of impressive in a horrid way.

The industry is so full of lies, damned lies, etc.

@jepyang I can corroborate this, it is a huge change for me waking up in a good mood. I don’t think I’ve had that in a remotely consistent way since I was single digit aged.

Yes, ups and downs sometimes, but the average is hugely improved and that’s worth celebrating.

I hope a lot of people get this effect because it’s just… nice.

I’ve been finding the emotional nuances fascinating and I rarely read anecdotes about them, there is so much ‘there’ there. In a mostly great way.

@erininthemorning.com thank you, ordered! :)

@skinnylatte stuff like this really puts me off moving to the otherwise wonderful Bay Area.

It’s such a beautiful city with such a toxic culture of tech. I wish I did it a decade+ ago, now it seems… unwise.

The job market doesn’t help matters of course but that’s most places, now.

You can really tell who has a terrible local LLM set up, there is word salad all over the place and elsewhere people probably paying many dollars per hour on API usage for models that aren’t absolutely idiotic.

This is fascinating in a way. Incredibly stupid, but fascinating nonetheless.

lmao

scammers got on this QUICK.

@jonny this is so fucking funny.

Of course someone had to have a mirror universe bot to go in and screw everyone (if it’s actually a bot).
