No. A lot of websites deliberately disable functionality when they detect an ad-blocker to annoy you into disabling it.

Correct. But companies seem to not give two fricks about it. There should be harsher punishments in place.

There are a lot of specs missing from what the streets were hoping for from the holy grail of VR headsets, but I’m starting to believe that they are not going for that. It seems they want to win in the mid-range market competing directly with Meta. Honestly, “Quest 3 without Meta” is already very compelling. I guess it’s not all down to how competitively they decide to price it. “Cheaper than Index” is already good news for my wallet at least.

Just download more RAM.

And in all seriousness, poorly written programs hoarding all the RAM amidst a huge RAM shortage is selfish and vile.

If it’s trains or planes on the other hand…

I do

They’re really finding ways to outdo themselves each time.

Well, that’s obviously because you can’t be decent and tall at the same time!

It’s just that I’m confused whether it goes in with the aluminum or unsorted trash, so I never throw it out.

Welcome to the fediverse! We’ve got Star Trek, Linux, and seasonal beans.

This shouldn’t be as relatable as it is…

I thought this was about the UK.

I run my own matrix server, too. I’ve never had any issues with updates. Honestly, I just pull the new docker image without thinking twice about it. It is risky, of course, but I have daily automated backups, so I’m not too concerned. Personally, I felt like setting up a matrix server for the first time was the biggest pain in the butt. It’s extremely convoluted with very poorly written documentation that is often outdated or incomplete. After I got through that, it was smooth-sailing from there. Setting up mautrix bridges one you got Synapse to work is actually really easy, though.

For some reason, the domain name does not resolve with quad9 :(

A very rewarding part of getting into 3D printing is that after the initial purchase, I started repairing things left and right like a standing mixer for my grandma or a thread adapter for my partner. I didn’t picture just how many things could be saved and how many purchases would be avoided. I’m always glad to be able to print some niche thing for under a euro worth of material that would otherwise cost 30€ or so and only be available on Amazon. I do realize the irony in having to make a non-insignificant purchase to acquire such a device, but it did open up a whole new world of making things on my own.

We don’t all live in the same neighbourhood.

My immersion is ruined.

Yeah, but not as much as Beethoven

It will only get worse from here. The internet is getting flooded with slop, diluting the actual human knowledge. If you tried to train it again now, I’m sure the results would be worse due to less quality content in relative terms. This is the thermal death of the internet as the entropy plateaus.
