Ça y est j’ai fait mon choix. Ou plutôt il s’est imposé à moi avant la date prévue. (Pas eu la patience d’encaisser les déceptions jusqu’à Noël) Ce sera donc mémère à chat. Voici donc un dernier #DaphLiction pour fêter ça !
If I wanted to start a blog, but had no interest in managing the software of it, which platform should I choose? Honestly been out of the blogging space for so long, I have no idea what the options are outside of managed wordpress.
Does anybody have a good term to describe people you used to respect who turned out to be horrible? Like Steven Pinker, J.K. Rowling, Richard Dawkins. It's like a milkshake duck but more consequential and even more disappointing
Need to get back in the habit of taking pictures as I go. Last month's free mini is on the desk currently, along with a Scout Kill Team and some Blood Angels Terminators.
Every month the official Warhammer stores will have a different mini that you can get for free. It’s not something to make an army out of, but it is a great low stakes chance to paint something different or do an interesting kitbash.
Some of you know I’m a big fan of LA food. I think that dollar for dollar you get a tremendous amount of cuisines, varieties of foods, in this melting pot which feels to me like it has far more immigrant and working class food than the Bay Area. Even the density and quality of ‘fancy food’ is high!
It occurs to me that you’d only use AI to write for you if you believe you’re not good at writing, and if you’re not good at writing you have no way of discerning if the AI is wrting well for you, and in the process you’ll never get any better at writing yourself.
@bugmenot@damonism This is true in a very, very, very narrow spectrum of writing skill, but those who use AI to do their writing for them will not go up in their skill.
Most people, however, who can't write can't read effectively either.
As I behold "Crush!", the new Apple ad for their Ipad Pro ...
... I fluctuate, with heisenbergian indeterminacy, between "they are clearly trolling us" and "they are totally earnest and have no idea how completely sociopathic they appear"
Have any of these VR systems figured out a way around the problem of "gorilla arm" -- i.e. the weird fatigue that comes from holding your hand out in front of you like that for hours at a time?
First an introduction - I go by Dyptre online, I'm a photographer based in Western Canada with a primary focus on capturing landscapes with a focus on natural and real editing. I shoot #film, I and primarily shoot #fujifilm
If you want to see more - give me a follow here I guess!
If you follow my account, you may have noticed that I am on a getting in shape journey this year.
I was on my way to hit 100kg rather sooner than later. I didn't step on the scales for a long time, knowing that I wont like the results. And when I did, I didn't like the results. I was actually in shock.
Now, I don't care too much about the numbers, but I do care about how I feel and honestly also about how I look. I hated both.
@derthomas I don't know if you know, but you've been one hell of an inspiration to me. :blobcatsunglasses: Thank you for that!
Admittedly I wasn't as strong as you were and am at my third attempt since January, lol, but I think now I finally got the ball rolling. The nice, much less depressing weather is certainly helping. Hell yeah! We got this!!!
I had an online discussion about a Federated-Yelp that raised some interesting points that might apply to SO as well -- How do you “federate” the features that DON’T fit into the standard social media formulae? Things like “accepted answers” might only work on a centralized server.
Also, this might fall under the threaded discussion WG. I’d love to talk in more detail if you’re ever interested.
@thomasjwebb@dansup Federating software forges is already happening. @forgejo is actively working on it. They even have a good overview of the progress somewhere I don't have at hand right now.
