Exactly right. Funny thing is he’s had Pepper X waiting for just such an event, but decided to release it anyway because nobody could beat the reaper. But they were getting close, so time to pull ahead again.

I know Ed Currie personally. He’s a great dude, gives back to the community, and is a total mad scientist. He has peppers waiting in the wings which put this one to shame!

That’s a shame, because I much prefer the interface to Lemmy’s.

“Circumstantial Evidence”… yeah. The circumstance is that South Carolina is extremely racist (I live here) and the congresswoman who drew this map is extremely racist. The same shit was just proven racist in ALABAMA of all places… but not here? Unreal.

Comparing current LLMs to the ENIAC is thought-provoking; I understand the eagerness to extrapolate in that direction. That being said, I don’t think it will be linear or even logarithmic in progress. The current state of computing and technological advancement has become:

1. Initial introduction or release
2. Major hype and influx of greed money. <- we are here
3. Failure to live up to the hype, resulting in the tech becoming a punchline and gobs of money lost
4. Renaissance of the tech as its true potential is eventually realized, which doesn’t match the original hype but ends up very useful
5. Iteration and improvement with no clear “done” or “achieved” milestone, it just becomes part of society

So cool. We are on the cusp of very interesting times in exploration again.

Bennu’s exterior were so loosely packed that if a person were to step onto the surface, they might sink in, much like a pit of plastic balls in children’s play areas.

No they wouldn’t, that thing barely as any gravity and that’s why it’s so loosely packed. But the visual is fun. Galactic ball pit!

Enshittification. They’ve turned the corner of chasing profits by being user-hostile.

Awesome, thanks!

How about they “reimagine” the series as a good game instead of a pile of unbalanced, buggy hot garbage?

I pay for it, it’s worth every penny.

Moisture is the essence of wetness, wetness is the essence of beauty.

Purelymail.com has been great for me for years. Insanely cheap and just works.

But node doesn’t run in the browser. So was it all SSR?

we prototyped our frontend in node/js

Uh… wut

You. Went to space? You.

I would like to point out that the Digg migration didn’t happen overnight. It happened over the course of weeks and months, even though ten years later it feels like it happened overnight. There were plenty of people saying “fuck off, Digg is fine” after v4 launched.
