Buy me an ice cream and I’ll worship whatever you want for the next 10 minutes.

Just buy a 3d printer and you will find that there are a bajillion doohickeys and whatsits that you never knew you needed. Half of my house is now 3d printed.

Poast is just full of arseholes. Don’t even waste your time looking.

Bob Holness played Saxaphone on Jerry Rafferty’s Baker Street.

Nope. Best thing to do is browse all the posts on all the communities for a while and then start subscribing to the communities you think you might like. There is also https://lemmings.world/c/newcommunities@lemmy.world for new communities to advertise themselves.

We aren’t all yanks, you know.

Fewer bots.

The same number of grammar arseholes though.

I think the idea is that men don’t want to admit they have feelings and are lonely because that’s a weakness.

An LLM doesn’t understand the output it gives. It can’t understand what someone wants when they talk to it, and it can’t generate an original thought. It’s as far from actual intelligence as auto complete on your phone.

The only thing that will take him down is a blob of cholesterol being dislodged during a particularly violent fart. He is surrounded by boot lickers who will excuse him literally anything, including raping children if necessary.

That is already the case with written news. How can you trust any of it, when anyone can make up anything and present it as fact? In the same way you have to rely on the source and provenance of a news story, the same has become true of photos and videos. Photo altering has been going on for over 100 years

Depends who they are. The effort I put into empathising depends on how much of an arsehole they are.

I wrote it for a friend’s company, and I don’t think he ever did anything much with it. I don’t remember the exact details, but it was something like this for 200 pages:

<1 - 100> [101 - 110] 111 … 120 [121 - 131] <131 - 200>

Basically 3 levels of page selection, where you can pick one in a range of 10, skip forward or back by 10 or go to a new section of pages. It was something like that anyway. The total number of pages defined the ranges. It was all very clever and worked well for moving around large numbers of pages.

I invented a pagination system for web pages that allowed easy navigation with only a few clicks to get to the page you want, whether it was 3 pages or 3000 pages.

I’m really surprised no one else has invented it because it was so much better than anything else I’ve seen.

Yeah, I’m on Android here because I like using my phone to pay for stuff. I’ve made a half-arsed attempt to degoogle a bit by running Immich on a home server for photos.

I had a Wiley Fox phone back in the day that was supposedly as stock Android as you could get.

In the Night Garden. Iggle Piggle, hopelessly adrift and dying at sea, gives up any hope, removes the sail from his boat, wraps himself up in it, and goes to the Night Garden, where everyone is friendly and there are no worries. Let’s face it - he’s dead.

Been there, done that. It was great, but didn’t last for other reasons. I’m now cis married with kids and don’t regret a thing.

Is it something you can start to monetize while you are still in work? If it is possible to ease yourself into it more gently you can back out if it all goes tits up.

I find that as I get older I give fewer fucks. I genuinely don’t care what other people think of me - I don’t need their approval. I have my own friends, family, and interests which are important to me, dickheads at work aren’t.
