Ok, I'm not a speed-cuber, but I think when my birthday rolls around I'm going to get myself a GOOD cube because goddamn does my current three-by ever make a frustrating fidget toy with how rough it is.
in reply to Patch Arcana

Yea the crappy ones are so frustrating. They keep on getting stuck when you try to do even bit quick movements. I had that even exploded.

The good ones seem to already be cheap nowadays though.



FYI: if you are fronting your servers via a CDN, there is no need for you to support QUIC+HTTP/3.

CDNs do not use that protocol to origin servers, nor have plans to do so.

Invest your time and money somewhere else.

Hey Mastodon, my name is Dana! I have a passion for video games, reading, and working to make the world a better place; for myself and all generations to follow.
I work for a non-profit called Jennifer Ann's Group. Our mission is to prevent teen dating violence through awareness, education, and advocacy. Part of how we accomplish this is by creating video games to help teach teens about key protective factors and building healthy relationships. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Esports Management and have been working to spread awareness about our Gaming Against Violence program.
We also support developers in our annual game jam!
Let's connect, I'd love to meet other like-minded individuals!

Yeah… good luck with that 😆

Ein dpd-Fahrer parkt ordentlich auf der Fahrbahn, statt den Geh- oder Radweg zu blockieren. Hinter ihm ein aufgebrachtes Carbrain, das ihn anmault, er solle halt auf dem Gehweg parken, und aussteigt, um das dpd-Fahrzeug zu fotografieren und mutmaßlich zu melden.

Autofahrende sind scheiße.

Die Leute haben mittlerweile echt die Frustrationstoleranz eines zahnenden Kleinkindes. Alles muss sofort passieren, jede Verzögerung mündet in Aggression, die Welt muss ihnen zu Füßen liegen, Regeln gelten nur für andere. Riesiges Ego und null Rücksicht, jeder einzelne ein König der Arschlöcher.


"Overall, the chatbots often failed to retrieve the correct articles. Collectively, they provided incorrect answers to more than 60 percent of queries. Across different platforms, the level of inaccuracy varied, with Perplexity answering 37 percent of the queries incorrectly, while Grok 3 had a much higher error rate, answering 94 percent of the queries incorrectly"

94%. That's some error rate, right there.

I just realized that I haven't ever heard of or seen an ancient bug book. I mean, surely some nerd 150 BCE must have drawn all the various bugs, found commonalities, then tried to classify them. Maybe such documents were just too hard to copy compared to prayer texts and just didn't survive. Also, no magnifying lenses.

@Extelec One method is to punch a hole in something (could be a leaf, even), and place the water drop in the hole. Another is to form a small loop with, say a pine needle, and place the water droplet in the loop.

But they did have access to transparent material - natural transparent crystals in particular.

in reply to Simon Willison

by structured data extraction are you referring to constrained decoding like using grammars? Or just asking it to respond in a specified json schema via the prompt?

@redscroll Ollama has grammar support baked in that works against any model, I'm using that


Found out yesterday that my kid is texting on the reg with some random "kid" (supposedly) that she doesn't know in real life.

If this person is who he says he is, it's mostly harmless. He doesn't even live in the area. So I don't want to come down too hard and risk that it drives her into further underground/hidden comms.

But if he's NOT, I'm worried about sextortion or some other scam. If other parents have advice, I'm listening.

The EU and Canada are specifically targeting US products which will primarily hurt pro-Trump areas, and are products where there are ample options to replace those now more expensive items. They’re using a scalpel while Trump uses a child’s plastic hammer. minnesotareformer.com/2025/03/…

This summarizes my morning at work diagnosing issues after our server received an upgrade by the hosting provider over night.
in reply to SuperDicq

Gentoo, Mint and Ubuntu (the latter two unfortunately ship a proprietary version of Linux like Debian, but at least ask before installing further nonfree software).
in reply to 翠星石

What do you mean Ubuntu and Mint are better than Debian when it comes to this?

They don't even have a clear separation in their repository and they install the Snap package manager by default which also contains proprietary software that does not ask the user.

"Meanwhile, generative search tools’ tendency to fabricate URLs can also affect users’ ability to verify information sources. #Grok2, for instance, was prone to linking to the homepage of the publishing outlet rather than specific articles.

More than half of responses from #Gemini and #Grok3 cited fabricated or broken URLs that led to error pages. Out of the 200 prompts we tested for Grok 3, 154 citations led to error pages"

The latest example of a potential new variant evolving in a long-term chronic infection has been detected by the diligent work of those collecting and sequencing samples in South Africa.

As Ryan H describes on this thread, it is descended from the BA.3 lineage, which last in circulation about 3 years ago. So presumably it has been evolving in a chronic case since then, and recently managed to transmit to other people. The latest sample is from a different province and with one added Spike mutation (K356T).

in reply to Mike Honey

Here’s the frequency of the BA.3 samples in the context of all the recent samples from South Africa. Optimistically, we can hope that it has already gone extinct, as there have been >35 samples collected since it was last detected.

In the context of global sampling, there are still thousands of samples reported each week, so it seems unlikely to be spreading widely, yet.

in reply to Mike Honey

Meanwhile, the wastewater surveillance from NICD in South Africa showed a wild, wild spike in recent months – on the scale of the original Omicron wave (just prior to the start of their data).

Hopefully that is just a coincidence, but it is quite puzzling what might’ve driven that.
