I'll hold out for: machine code for babies

There's no meetup group for smoking weed and going back to sleep unfortunately. I already checked.

Wolf Bee59 is imminent.

There's so much going on, a TV show would have to be 10 seasons. Love the combo of socio-political struggles and hard sci fi technology though.

Red Mars, Kim Stanley Robinson

Ttfatf you could button mash your way through on expert and still pass.

Not as effective on cliffs of dover unfortunately

Cheaper than most vans nowadays.

Ffs don't tell them that. They're already flocking to NC in droves. They leave because they don't like California and proceed to turn anywhere they go into California. If anything, THATS where we need a fucking wall.

Human jazz cup

Nah. They just get stoned and fall asleep.

Would you mind elaborating a bit for someone who doesn't do much coding? I'm guessing I'm one of the people you're talking about.

The only coding I've done has been via json for raspberry pi, 3d printer, and homeassistant applications.

I know it's a text base language, but how do it's commands relate to integers? I've used boolean, I get that bit.

Bed is good at keeping fresh krispy kreme warm.

I wish the tingling in my hands helped me remember things!

I'll be your friend ♥️

There's an episode of Star Trek TNG where the crew is briefly back on earth and capt Picard is enticed by the idea of taking a job where they do exactly this. They work on lifting a tectonic plate from the ocean floor to create a new continent.

If she can prove they used Johansen's voice as training data... Maybe. If the pitch and tambre of openai's voice came about naturally I don't see what leg they have to stand on.

Iirc it's not like recording artists can sue other singers that happen to sound like them.

My grandpa actually used to drive a school bus in the 50's as a teenager. Any high school student with a valid liscence could work as a driver. He'd take it home, park it In the yard, and go pick everyone up in the morning, on his way.

I see no reason not to let an 18yo or ever 16 drive a train, with basically no obstacles on a fixed track.

I ran an xz1 compact for YEARS. probably still would be if my replacement screen hadn't kept popping back off. It was literally the perfect size phone. Big enough to watch yt videos on but it actually fit in your pocket!

There was a car talk puzzler long ago that this reminded me of:

RAY: This is from my delivery truck series and it was sent in by Rob Gretigney.

He writes:

I once worked as a delivery truck driver. The truck I drove was about 25 feet in length. One of the places that I routinely delivered to required that I pull into a narrow alley in order to unload my truck. One cold January day after making my delivery I discovered that my battery was as dead as a hammer. I had probably left my lights on when I went for coffee.

Another delivery driver had pulled into the alley right behind me and I asked if he had a set of jumper cables and a strong battery that I could use. He did but the jumper cables were only 16-feet long and wouldn't reach from his battery to mine. The alley was too narrow to park the truck with the good battery next to mine, and my truck was too heavy to be pushed into a better position. We did think about temporarily replacing my battery with the one from the other truck so that we could at least get out of the alley, but the cable connections were so corroded on both vehicles that they wouldn't budge. And, to top it off, we didn't have any tools anyway.

Then I struck upon an idea that allowed us to get my truck started in only a few short minutes. What was the idea? Answer:

TOM: I know the answer! You put the two cables together and you put the bumpers touching.

RAY: Exactly. Jumper cables consist of two wires with clamps on each end so you've got four clamps. They're kind of stuck together through the insulation, and if you peel them apart and then clamp the ends together, you have instead of one 16-foot long pair of jumper cables, you have one 32-foot long cable, but you only have one. But trucks have steel bumpers and steel frames, and the steel of the frame is the conductive path for all the electrons.

TOM: Phew.

RAY: You've made the electrons travel through one cable, and then through the frames of both vehicles to get back to the original jumping battery, and voila -- the thing was started. Who's our winner?

I used to be able to play a song or yt video and use an aux cable to go from the pc's headphone out, right back into the pc's mic in, which audacity recognized as a mic, so you could easily record anything playing in original quality.
