I’m lost on this. What is the connection between Stack Overflow and Copilot? From the outside, that’s just the notification that Microsoft is pushing to all windows users, regardless of what they’re doing.

Just reread hitchhikers myself, and I’m rereading the Robots series. I love the mix of sci-fi and noir that the Robots books have

I’ve been reading his stuff since Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom. You’ll definitely enjoy his other books.

This, plus Consent-o-matic. I run Diversion instead of AdBlock Home, though

Chinchillas have vertical slit pupils despite being small herbivorous rodents. There are definitely quite a few exceptions.

Apple doesn’t tell its store employees SHIT. We were on MacRumors and streaming the keynotes so we wouldn’t be blindsided. I really doubt they were told this.

From what I’m seeing, much of this matches up with Mozilla’s political views and none of it is a surprise. Sounds like a “monster of the week” right wing piece.

It’s fun to watch someone’s reaction to hearing the scream from The Grudge for the first time. In-fucking-sane.

From what I’m seeing in the Georgia Tech video and paper in the article, the materials might be able to let light through. Could this be a good idea for a coating on solar panels?

I’ve found myself both reading books more and reading long form news more. Ending the endless scroll has done me some good!

I thought about killing Hitler, but a DTI agent named Fox stopped me before I could go.

That seems like a great place to get old and walk in the glow of each other’s majestic presence.

After reading that, I really wonder what the process is to get credentialed. How did he get in? I went to the website, and I only found three authors on a quick scan of the different sections: Simon Ateba, Femi Adesina, and Noah Pitcher. Femi Adesina works for the President of Nigeria as well, and focuses on Nigerian politics. Noah Pitcher works for Kevin McCarthy (the Current Speaker of the US House), but his stories focus on West Africa as well.

The website looks busy but polished on the main page, but sloppy work becomes apparent quickly. They can’t seem to decide on whether or not they’re capitalizing links. The banner across the top is a straight rip of the New York Post. If you try to look up Adesina or Pitcher’s work, a few stories load but the “Loading” at the bottom never goes away. In the links at the bottom, they still have a “Test Page 2” Link! There’s also a strange subheading under the Health and Business Sections. Upon looking it up, it’s the beginning of a quote from Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther which leads me to believe it was a placeholder from their website builder that they never replaced or erased.

This certainly seems like a low-budget mouthpiece for a certain political view.

I’ve found myself switching to New because of the much smaller community size. I’d like to participate more than I have in other places. If I wasn’t doing that, I’d use Active to see what others are saying.

What a cool solution! No reverse gear needed.

As @twistedtxb said, not really. You can go to sub.rehab and import your subreddits, though! That’s how I found more communities.
