Hakase and Nano count sheep to help fall asleep. It's super effective.
Yuuko and Mai go trick-or-treating to get free candy. The only problem with this plan is that Halloween was last week.
Hakase makes a biscuit-powered robot, mostly to get attention.
Hakase befriends a crow.
The girls try to build a house of cards.
Nakamuram tries to catch Nano, but only catches other people instead.
Yuuko tries not to respond to Mai's joke setups.
_Avatar: The Way Of Water_
Pretty good, especially in IMAX. (3d effects are meh.)
The evil humans have switch from evil mining to evil whaling and evil colonization.
Was worth the $20, anyway.

I heard there needs to be more #opentelemetry merch. Here’s my submission. I will not be taking any further questions
@niplav just saw this post, which explains some, if true:

Update on ua-fediland.de :
One of their moderators got back to my email. They're in Ukraine and can't moderate during the blackouts (understandably!), and the bots/spammers take advantage of the power outages (they're Russian) to sign up when they know they'll have maximum time to stay on the instance before getting moderated.
I've suggested they might want to close sign ups before the outages to try to prevent it.
Please also see the reply to this toot, however. #Fediblock
@kzimmermann @ArneBab Larry Wall (creator of Perl) calls this "whipuptitude".
@gl I wish I remembered if I put "Discordian" this year.
Probably depends on my mood the day I filled out the survey.
@empathy2000 by what web domains are easily available.
Yuuko attempts to order coffee, but is stymied by unclear size options.
Mio goes ballistic when her (yaoi) art is almost revealed.
Nano loses a screw and Yuuko returns it, and meets the whole family. Nano insists she's not a robot, and Yuuko agrees: Nano is just Nano.

I was there was the original OGL was created. I know first hand how hard those drafting it tried to sincerely make it so that it would last forever and would never screw over anyone that used it. So when we decided to create a Cypher System open license with the same goals, of course we used the OGL as a model. And now after two days of potential WotC shenanigans, people are looking at our open license as though it's dodgy. Sigh.

Say person A pointed a gun at person B and pulled the trigger, but the gun jammed. Person A then gave a half-hearted apology.
Should person B accept the apology? Should they trust person A ever again?
What if person A starts visibly trying to clear the jam but assures person B that it's all fine?
Asking for a friend.
Got an A* on my annual review today. First time ever, I think.
(The performance review rule still applies, it's just this time I'm the beneficiary.)
* It's not actually an "A", but the top rank.

@pee_zombie indeed, an important part of forgiveness is giving yourself the permission to stop feeling angry.
(/sad/betrayed/a whole cocktail of emotions, with a dash of regularity; it's not that you'll never be mad about it again, but that you don't have to be mad all the time.)
Releasing yourself is an active ingredient.
@panchromaticity all the vibecamp planning is happening on the discord.
@niplav I think that a lot of my discomfort with AI risk arguments stems from carrying through assumptions about sovereign AI into discussions about other kinds.
(Yes, I have heard about instrumental convergence.)
Dissecting the argument that superintelligent AI inevitably leads to doom.

In Britain, it's called a lift, but Americans call it an elevator. I guess we were just raised differently.

Well, fuck. The GPT disinformation age is now.
I googled "OS for 4gb ram" and the first hit, which also was used by google to populate its snippet is an answer from quora which is very obviously created with #chatgpt (I recognised the non-committal non-answer right away, but it can also be detected by a popular GPT detector).
The user has 98 answers and, you've guessed it, they are all created with GPT.
PLOT TWIST: The questions where also created with GPT!
Oh man, this wasn't intended to be a slam on this person.
