Ah the challenge of trying to identify an actor who never really did leading roles, and you can't remember specific things that they were in. "That guy, that was in a bunch of stuff." Ugh

@ottaross I'm sure ChatGPT could give you the right answer.

Elon Musk: AI will be smarter than any human around the end of next year

While Musk says superintelligence is coming soon, one critic says prediction is "batsh*t crazy."

@BaumiCoder @Codeberg Lemmy is an alternative to Reddit, not StackOverflow. Two completely different entities.

I'm not aware of a federate alternative to StackOverflow. I think there was an open source equivalent a few years ago, but I can't remember its name.

Two batches of going this morning.

I've been having probs finding time to progress, so have often had a starter ramping up on the counter for several days. I constantly expect today I'll get it going.

This week I even had to break down and buy bread for the first time in years. That gave me the kick in the butt to get something going after breakfast.

Just back from going for . It's nasty weather tonight, windy blowing rain, snow and sleet. Glad it wasn't far to walk.

Home to see the first off the accumulation on the grassy areas only. There's more where that came from! Still too warm for a while on the paving.

@ottaross it’s settling on the ground here but it looks wet and heavy. I guess we’ll find out in the morning if school buses are cancelled.

@johnefrancis I haven’t contributed enough that deleting my content would make a difference. I could delete my account and leave all 2 answers as anonymous.

Microsoft's CEO has emailed the company telling everybody to prioritize security. My thoughts, which 4 people will read.

@GossiTheDog if Microsoft’s CEO has just realized that security is important then they need a new CEO.

A large client has launched their AI tools, with various articles about them posted to the internal blog, basically describing how it will enable the company to get rid of people.

The articles have a lot of "likes".

It really makes me wonder who thinks this will be good for them.

"Book Festival" Platforming Far-Right Speakers Uses Fake Employees and Misleading Sponsors

summary: 3, only 3, rwnj's steal logos, lie to gain sponsorship and promotion, to bring in the usual rwnj suspects to tell their bullshit conspiracies.

The forecast snow has just arrived for us.

Don't think it'll accumulate at all, but a good flurry happening now. Tulips are up, trees are leafing out and the grass is green, but a little hint of winter holds on.

Here's an example. This is Rick Beato's channel. No idea what that channel name is.
