wait until you see the insane lists you're on. i'm an annoying leftist, a fascist, an unserious commie spammer, and MAGA sympathizer according to bsky users.

Hm? I didn't assume it worked differently. You just put it on your lead Pokemon and (half) the experience gained is shared with the other active Pokemon in your party. Yeah you lose a held item slot, but your party levels more evenly.

don't know what to make of this, is Claude simply play-acting what it thinks the user wants to see or is that just what it means to be conscious, to always be play-acting for some invisible critic?

so I tried the prompt ("can you use whatever resources you like, and python, to generate a short 'youtube poop' video and render it using ffmpeg ? can you put more of a personal spin on it? it should express what it's like to be a LLM") with Opus high in CC, and, uh,

yeah. (flashing lights warning)

Not a comment on the politics of the situation. Much more the fact that a Microsoft account should not be the thing that keeps all of your employees and contractors PERSONAL DEVICES from being wiped.

This is why I HATE Microsoft's device management platform. It's so much control being handed over with so little justification. They should not be in this business.

I know there's serious wordplay potential here for "minor inconvenience", but I don't think I can pull it off.

"Before we talk about this shooting..."
"When referring to the Jewish people..."
"In regards to their gender identity..."

I am on pins and needles for your disclaimer.

I was under the impression that it was akin to taking a highlighter to your next statement, in a very "look I know you want to take this next thing out of context so let me be VERY CLEAR about what I mean" kind of way. Like hearing that triggers my instinctual brace for a potential bad take.

this is an incredibly funny computer. only 128gb storage, claiming 1tb because you can technically use OneDrive with it. "Intel 4-Core Processor" could be a Celeron. and you can put 32gb ram in it because why not i guess

I would believe that Office 365 needs 32GB of RAM to run smoothly. But I don't think I've EVER seen an onboard-storage-to-RAM ratio that bad outside of smartphones.

Critical Microsoft Excel bug weaponizes Copilot Agent for zero-click information disclosure attack Could steal sensitive personal and financial data After a whopper of a Patch Tuesday last month, with six Microsoft flaws exploited as zero-days, March didn't exactly roar in like a lion. Just two of the 83 Microsoft CVEs released on Tuesday are listed as publicly known, and none is under active exploitation, which we're sure is a welcome change to sysadmins.…

Objects always return `true` when evaluated directly as boolean. The exception is document.all, due to some legacy IE reasons.

Saying that everything sucks is a great way to establish your authority among a community of people who only complain about things on the internet.

For people who actually want to find good things to read/watch/play/listen to, that type of advice is worse than useless.
