See me after class

This reminds me that many history-related Wikipedia articles like this one don’t have an English version yet. Might be a nice project in anticipation of Trump’s b-day.

Yeah, me too. I’m doing the smartphone equivalent of typing with two fingers.

You monster.

I feel like this is probably common sense. The council of people over 20 have decided this months ago, and it should become law any minute now.

IDK, I don’t think old style and lining figures are analogous to lower- and uppercase letters. They’re not really different glyphs, at least not like lower- and uppercase letters are, and I would see them more as different ways of typesetting the same glyph.

Edit: Wikipedia does not agree with me.

IDK, the limiting factor for me is time, not my ability to read. Not every email is as necessary, important, or time-sensitive as the sender thinks it is, and some days I also gotta do other shit that isn’t responding to emails.

Tbf, I’ve been using sudo rm -rf /* for years, and it has made every computer problem I’ve ever had go away. Very effective.

Those first 20 results in 2025:

• 1-4: AI slop
• 5: Reddit thread (no comments)
• 6: Reddit thread (comment including the solution has been deleted)
• 7-9: AI slop
• 10: Microsoft support forum (two pages of generic advice from support workers located in India who get paid a starvation wage)
• 11-12: stack exchange (both with poorly written questions followed by angry comments)
• 13: quora (nonsense mixed with stuff that somehow actually makes things worse???)
• 14: Wikipedia
• 15-17: AI slop
• 18: Reddit thread (only one comment “nvm figured it out”)
• 19: Arch Linux forum (links to Arch Wiki)
• 20: the actual solut… no wait, it’s also AI slop

I’m reading this in Ralph Wiggum’s voice, like the car version of “my cats breath smells like cat food!”.

Also relative to (not around) the sun. The full rotation the earth does in a day is relative to the position of the sun. The absolute amount of rotation is different.

Or maybe a stew that induces visual deprivation for a time period of 1 full rotation of the earth relative to the sun?

Would be funny if the AI was also burning computational resources while doing this so as to make the lie more convincing.

In terms of pure, artificial language generation, this is actually impressive. In terms of the actual utility of AI as a supposed problem-solving tool? Not so much.

On the Switch, the buttons aren’t just relabelled, their function is swapped, too.

It’s the Christian™ thing to do.

I also find them really helpful for falling asleep. Sometimes when I feel stressed and see mostly noise, I’ll try to spot the color shapes and focus on them. It’s kind of meditative and helps me fall asleep faster.

This is just the result of neurons firing and chemical reactions taking place, and it’s normal. Personally, for me it depends on my state of mind when I try to sleep. When agitated, I see noise like in your picture. When calm, I see flat, colorful shapes with soft edges that float around and change shape more or less rapidly (kind of like a lava lamp).

That looks great! Do you mind sharing your recipe?
