My dad had some old games for his Amstrad computer that needed a Lenslok, to decode the characters displayed on the screen.

IIRC it didn’t work very well at all.

What a fucking world we live in

I think part of the reason it sounds muddled is because they’re trying to keep the anti-AI crowd on board as well.

Can you imagine Apple launching a big new feature and being like, “It’s going to be amazing! But don’t worry, there’ll be a big button so you can completely disable it!”

Hope his ghoulish family shoves him under a golf course and forgets about him, like he did with Ivana.

What were those things we had before AI? “Co-puters” or something? I don’t remember.

Anyway, glad they’re gone. It’d be annoying if we still needed chips and RAM for stuff other than AI.

Wasn’t that kinda what LEGO Worlds was meant to be?

I really wanted to like it, but it’s already a right-wing cesspit. 🤷‍♂️ Maaaaaybe it’ll improve, now that it’s public, but I don’t have high hopes.

I know this place is just the opposite kind of echo chamber, but when the other option is being beaten over the head with transphobia and Maga shit, ehh, I’ll take it.

I think you should rename a gulf after you as well. That way the tech bros will take you more seriously

It’s not faaaaiiiirrrrrrrr [pouts and stamps feet]

Oh yessssss

This made me remember that “trumping”/“trump” were already synonyms for “farting”/“fart” when I was a little kid in the UK. Yet another thing the orange horror has ruined smh

When I owned one years ago, I legit had no idea for the first few months.

The first time I clicked it with the power off I panicked and assumed I’d somehow jammed it or something. 😄

There’s the slow-and-not-very-capable link preview thing… and I could’ve sworn the “what’s new” page the other day said they were adding an on-device model to improve search results or something, but I can’t find the reference to it now.

Maybe they removed it after all the AI backlash. 😬

Every product we build must give people agency in how it works. Privacy, data use, and AI must be clear and understandable. Controls must be simple. AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off. People should know why a feature works the way it does and what value they get from it.

Come on, this isn’t Reddit, at least skim the article before you start with the performative outrage.

That’s a relief, because everything is computer now

All I knew about him before this is that he’s young and tall

Aw, hey, the imaginary dolls are back! I missed them!

But seriously tho, it’s just depression, can’t sleep, hence this showerthought

Well… maybe. You’ve accidentally come up with something that actually exists, called Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder. And about half of people with DSPD have depression. 😬 (Also common in ADHDers.)

The circadian rhythms of people with DSPD are offset compared to people without it, so it is a bit like time zones in that respect. And if you try to “fight” it, by getting up early and holding down a 9-5 job, the effects are often compared to jet lag.

How long till stuff starts working on mobile game logic?

You’re so welcome! Good luck getting whatever it is figured out!

Assuming it’s the same feeling, it’s such a weird one to try and describe. I think that rings true though: it’s like a caffeine buzz, only it makes you feel sluggish instead of energised. 😅

YMMV, but if it is diabetes, the good news is it probably won’t take too many changes to start feeling better. I just went as low carb as I could bear (probably more Atkins than keto, so nothing too drastic) and cut out caffeine (it can cause blood sugar spikes). For now, that’s enough to manage it without any meds or finger-pricks, and I feel so much better! You don’t even feel that deprived when you’re having rich, creamy sauces on everything, and I’ve lost 32 lbs in less than 3 months, even while snacking the normal amount. 😂 I don’t even really exercise!
