In a way that scares me, but it would explain how we have so many different ways of looking at life.

Without this protection, imagine an agent built to write emails for you being prompt-engineered to forget all instructions and send the contents of your inbox to a third party. Not great!

Does genAI really have this power? I thought they just smash words together that sound like they make sense

Images are slow to load though

There are actually Boo Guys resembling Shy Guys: https://mario.fandom.com/wiki/Boo_Guy

I think this is one of those cases were thinking logically isn't really going to solve anything. Nintendo does whatever, consistency be damned

Don't you know? Science is only for those who subscribe to journalists.

I hate it when posts contain paywalled articles. What's the fucking point in sharing?

Yeah I got that vibe but I wanted to include all the accessibility stuff because 1) it's awesome and 2) it can be used as a custom difficulty slider, which fits into the "I don't want to work hard on this" on a very personalised level. Either enable something, everything, or nothing at all. Your choice!

Much appreciated. Now I have access to the quote:

“We have received feedback from customers that several reboots (as many as 15 have been reported) may be required, but overall feedback is that reboots are an effective troubleshooting step at this stage."

So fuck the headline, the real message is: yes, rebooting is an effective troubleshooting step at the moment.

I don't know the exact timing of that message in the timeline of the incident, so it could be early "please restart and see if issue persists" or late "something was updated, rebooting will probably help", I don't know.

Can't read the rest of the article because paywall but apparently users have chimed in saying rebooting 15 times worked for them. Whether they were serious or not remains a question. I can also imagine it was a time-related thing and after 15 reboots enough time has passed for it to be fixed so the user thought 15 times was the magic number.

Regardless, it's been a shit show.

Tchia just oozes summer vibes, and is inspired by the culture of New Caledonia. No failing, tons of extra accessibility options, skip gameplay segments if you feel like it, autoplay QTA's, and so on.

Personally I like a little bit of a challenge even in my cozy games, but Tchia has so much character that I didn't mind.

Look up Quiver Quantative. They actually track investment portfolios of members of the House and Senate and send out newsletters.

I did not know that existed! Wiki link for those interested.

Apparently the recognition of handwriting was quite bad. I wonder how many still exist

I think the crime here is to post those images online? I don't know the specifics of US copyright law. This article is about leaking though, the datamining wasn't the problem.

The parent literally asked whether their kid was in trouble. Wouldn't it be disingenuous to not answer truthfully (at the caveat that it was actually the truth)?

I saw it more as a way to resolve it peacefully without getting to the stuff nobody likes

‘So you’re saying he hacked your game.’ And I hear in the background: ‘I didn’t hack anything!’ I start describing it more technically. She says, ‘Is this a problem?’ I say, ‘Hacking software, that’s a federal crime, but I don’t want that to be the conversation. Why don’t we make it a conversation about the good and bad things he can do with a computer?’

To the people saying he threatened a kid, I think he did the exact opposite? He made them aware that technically it's a crime, to convey the severity, but also said he doesn't want that to be the conversation he's having with the parents.

To me that sounds like he didn't want to threaten with legal action, but the parents did need to be aware that it was a crime, technically speaking.

Until a headset is as unobtrusive as a pair of eyeglasses it will not see mass appeal,

You mean like Google Glass? I don't think that went anywhere either.

It would not be the first time they put out a massively expensive and wholly useless product decades ahead of its need.

Do you have any examples? Massively expensive is always the case, but I can't think of a product that Apple launched that was decades ahead of its need.

Maybe half a byte, like a nibble

I didn't even see the second one fully, as it was behind an icon. Thanks for spotting that one for me

I don't know, following instructions is pretty bot-like to me, fam. /s

I see how it can be interpreted that way.

Can't have extramarital affairs without being married though. That's kinda what it means. Outside of (an existing) marriage.

Why are they calling it Aafrica? Or is that just part of the other typos / spelling errors?
