A bipedal red fox paints a rainbow across the sky. They have a determined look on their face.

To the right of the rainbow are segments of text from newspaper articles about grim news for LGBTQIA+ folks, especially trans folks.

On the left, there are flowers on the ground, with butterflies flittering about. The discouraging words are illegible faint smudges.

A four panel comic strip. Panel one: text reads β€œI love drawing my scrungly guys at the computer.” A coyote is shown looking at the viewer over his shoulder whilst typing at a computer. Panel two: text reads β€œBut what are they computing?” A close of view of a badge on the computer reading β€œCBM- Coyote Business Machines.” Panel three: text reads β€œMaking a game? Drawing up a budget? Home automation?” The coyote says, β€œI use the computer to communicate!” Panel four: a close view of the computer screen, showing a simple program written in Basic: β€œ10 print β€œyip” 20 goto 10” Run Yip Yip Yip Yip Yip

yeah it's just using the desktop overlay built into SteamVR - not doing anything fancy to actually get it in world where it'd be visible if anyone else was there

i mean, given that GPT-3.5 was one of the catalysts that launched the whole AI craze it makes sense that unless specifically told otherwise, a lot of models will respond that they're using it (in fact gpt35 wouldn't have training data about gpt3.5 so it wouldn't respond saying it's gpt3.5)

AFAIK, all google assistant devices have a mute button or switch, and on phones have an option in the settings app

to preempt the inevitable: no idont think whats happening over there isn't important but I dont live in the US it is not something that is directly relevant to me to justify as disproportionate amount of space on my TL over here as it does. also hot take, but infinite horrible shit feed bad actually

i'm not defending this as a feature, buut i assume these are features with a whole lot more complexity behind them, than just changing the part that recognises hashtags, to also recognise $-tags

it will never not annoy me that logitech didn't bother to let you save any of the settings to the mouse itself because having the software running causes breakage in some apps because they enforce emulation of a Magic Mouse

I was going to be a bit more celebratory today with getting the last video of the year finished and stuff, then it got dropped on me pretty hard this morning that over the weekend we lost an icon in the world of tech reporting.

fwiw: if anyones running their own PDS and use caddy as a reverse proxy: you should avoid putting this in your caddy file to ensure you are compliant with all local laws

honestly for once im with mozilla on this one.
if youre going to build an API to TF the user, why limit it only to cats? i think there's an about:config flag to enable a `-moz-user-tf: fox;` property which works pretty nicely

yeah it's great, and it does the check when the app starts, so if you just turn a VPN, restart the app, turn it off, ???, profit

there's a uBlock rule which can bypass it, and I configured my PDS to redirect requests to that URL to always respond as age verified, but they either changed or patched

- given reminded me of the recreating datamoshing & melting GPU effect for gangstalk videos
- it's just messing around with near/far planes with no clear on the render texture so it's not anything fancy (you could probably do a lot more involved FX, even with the lack of custom shaders)

unless you render to the main window, which i accidentally realised when i drew a view of 0,0,0 to the same window that my authoring interface lives in)
- also noticed that if you grabbed a render texture that had clearing turned off, it would produce glitchy neon bright graphics in the preview

should probably explain what's going on:
- saw a component described as "letting you render to a separate window"
- tried to get it to work (seemingly just black screens,

and honestly i don't know how you do it. you are many orders of magnitude of a more patient & dedicated person than i am.

and it's probably not great, for you or the project to have one person with that level of importance to the project, what you can do about that i'm not sure
