jimmux,

Just ask the AI how to turn $1 into $100M with high frequency trading!

jimmux,

The trick is for those other AIs to reserve a few bucks, so they can repeat the process but this time cash out early. Keep repeating until everybody wins.

jimmux,

Sometimes it clicks if you graph it out with the confusing values on axes.

Can't transfer companion eggs from creatures adopted out in the wild - Omega Expedition (lemmy.world)

Note: This is NOT the rewards eggs. These three eggs are from critters that I found out in the wild, fed, petted and looked after until they were ready to drop an egg. Only it’s not letting me transfer any companion eggs, regardless of the source....

jimmux,

There’s a hard limit on how many eggs you can have in one save. They probably restricted transfer for eggs from expeditions to avoid going over this limit.

It would be worth raising anyway, as they may able to allow the transfer but not allow collecting them in the main save until you make room. Or allow transfer when the main save is below the limit.

jimmux,

You would think so, but it won’t let your companions lay more eggs when you’re at the limit. This is separate to the companion slot limit. I assume it doesn’t let you redeem eggs when you’re at the limit either.

If I had to guess, eggs require more data than a typical inventory item, due to the complexities of creatures. They’re probably implemented differently with some hacks to make it work, and limiting numbers is the simplest way to avoid complications.

jimmux,

Many many years ago, I saw a doco during a high school health class. It had stuff about gender identity, and included an interview from the 80’s with George Pell. He was ranting about how fashion these days was too androgynous, and you couldn’t tell the girls from the boys.

That was the first I ever heard from that man, and immediately disliked him.

Interesting to see where he ended up.

jimmux,

After he spent too long as a powerful pedo priest.

jimmux,

You could have a FODMAP intolerance.

jimmux,

I’ve started adding chopped broccoli into the rice cooker with rice and quinoa. It adds a lot of flavour, and about as cheap as a superfood can get.

jimmux,

The corporate memphis version is somehow more disturbing than the original.

jimmux,

Is the quicksilver just what was earned from expedition rewards, or do some items convert to quicksilver?

jimmux,

I’ll say the obvious because of where we are. Lemmy Kilmister.

jimmux,

Peep Show is my human litmus test. Seeing how people react to that show can tell you a lot about them.

jimmux,

Just brainstorming a semi-plausible explanations here. What if the variation is due to massive portals/wormholes to other planets? If you’re standing near one that goes to a place with much higher gravity when it opens up, it could cause you to be pulled toward it, or increase gravity around that area. If these portals are kept secret, the gravity fluctuations as they open and close might appear to be as random as weather patterns.

Could be an interesting plot point too, if your story includes races that have secretly come through these portals. Their existence could be discovered by triangulating the gravity changes during an event. Lots of interesting possibilities.

McCarthy’s last-ditch plan to keep the government open collapses, making a shutdown almost certain (apnews.com)

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s last-ditch plan to keep the federal government temporarily open collapsed in dramatic fashion Friday as a robust faction of hard-right holdouts rejected the package, making a shutdown almost certain....

jimmux,

In a lot of parliamentary systems that is what happens. In Australia it can result in a double dissolution election, in which every elected representative can potentially lose their job. The threat of that seems pretty effective at guaranteeing supply. Our conservatives would absolutely cripple the functions of government if they could.

jimmux,

This isn’t the little death I asked for.

jimmux,

I didn’t even notice the ads, but purchased on principle because it’s not a subscription.

Thank you so much! + minor issue with app icon

First of all, thank you so much for doing Boost for Lemmy. Boost was what made reddit nice, while their app and web ui went down the drain. I am super happy to now be able to use Boost to access lemmy! The app already seems to be quite solid (haven’t seen a bug, yet). The only minor issue I have is that Boost for Reddit and...

jimmux,

I’m surprised how long that’s still been a working option. I made a subreddit with zero activity just to be a mod and keep using Boost.

jimmux,

I’m not a big beer drinker, but there are few things as disappointing as finding a bar that serves stout on tap, then discovering it’s been all hopped up.

jimmux,

Unit test dummy data is full of it. Need an arbitrary date? Pick a special birthday. Location? Wherever you first met.

Not the most public dedication, but perhaps more impactful than yet another song about the one that got away.

jimmux,

The building I live in has started doing this for the private parking spots. Any vehicle not within the lines is hit with $80. Their hand was forced since some started parking trucks that leave the entire bed hanging out.

jimmux,

If you replace the quality parts with manure bricks, at what point has it become the shit of Theseus?

jimmux,

They will be generating it themselves soon enough. I contributed some stock photos in the past. They recently sent me info about their new contribution pipeline, for content that may not pass the usual quality threshold, but will help train the models. If they do it right, who knows, maybe they can get better results worth paying for.
