The data they compiled is really cool.

If reading the chart right, the genera with the most artists is opera.

Even if they didn’t have the music files, the analysis on the metadata is insane.

Publicly admitting they are the origin of the torrents is definitely a risky an insane move. I don’t think they want Sony going after them, but also fuck Sony for locking art behind shitty contracts that forces these kind of projects to exist.

I saw/heard an interesting take from a YouTube the other day.

They argued that forks are killing Firefox. Everyone using a fork doesn’t get counted in firefox’s numbers, they don’t see all the Linux user or people turning off AI features because we turned telemetry off. They only see the telemetry of the windows users that use the AI features everyday.

On one hand fuck Firefox’s current direction and the forks are great. On the other hand, maybe we should all use Firefox for some casual stuff just to keep the numbers up??? Keep shopping and banking stuff to the privacy respecting browsers, but the random Wikipedia rabbit holes can happen in Firefox.

And most debian user disable telemetry. Their numbers probably show its all windows folk heavily using AI because its the default.

An “expert” could be anyone who convinces someone else to pay them. The “expert” is probably the one that ran it through the chatbot.

No, that’s reddit. Here we’re all just depressed as we watch all the good things fall apart.

And the fix is a firmware update not a total recall? So its either buggy overcomplicated software or the update tweaked things to reduce the power draw so you got less machine power than what you were advertised.

Which honestly for a washer machine is pretty cool they can fix that sort of issue without the hassle of replacing the big machine, but if only these kinds of major safety issues could be figured out in pre-production.

The first edit was undoing a vandalism that persisted for 5 years. Someone changed the number of floors a building had from 67, to 70.

A friendly reminder to only use Wikipedia as a summary/reference aggregate for serious research.

This is a cool tool for checking these sorts of things, run everything through the LLM to flag errors and go after them like a wack-a-mole game instead of a hidden object game.

Neither of those are 1 word. At least hyphen them to pretend they’re one word.

Could be scraping our answers to train a data set to write their latest buzzfeed article. Reddit is so full of nonsense they need to come here.

You forgot the boarder!!!

And it’s worse when you remember your HR managers use windows.

Someone back this all up in that huge Minecraft book server.

Charge whoever pushed this “telematic update” for reckless endangerment or something.

They’re lucky there were no accidents related to this (as far as we know).

Solomon’s Keep and Solomon’s Boneyard.

Keep is a traditional dungeon crawler and Boneyard is an endless wave survival game.

Better to catch them with a robot kid than with real ones.

It’s big reminder of the dark times we live in. We’ve become insensitive to the school shootings, they have been weighing less and less on “societies collective mind” since Sandy Hook. They’re covered for a day, and vanish from the mind.

This time it was a person most of us knew of and have formed an opinion about. Weather you liked him or not, there is an emotional connection there.

The stark difference in how people are reacting is chilling. Honestly, its difficult to accept a group cheering on his death to an extreme degree. Making a meme is whatever, but the videos and comments are filled such hate that it is unsettling to witness.

At the end of the day, he was a dude exercising his free speech. His words may be misguided, but he had his opinions and was willing to debate them with people.

“Dad I want to grow my hair out long”

“No, men must have short hair. Long hair is the sign of the devil”

“But all these pictures of Jesus have long hair”

“go to your room!!!”
