Right, that’s kind of what I’m saying, the book mentions a person with a name and location (ish). Then finding a guy there when the name is fairly common does not equate all things said about him to be true. Far from it it seems. Especially if the book has fantastical claims outside the realm of reality about said person and is inconsistent on his story.

At best you get a King Arthur story, was there a king or ruler in said period for (part of) England? Probably. Did he become king because he pulled out a magical sword from the rock? I would assume not.

There are even stories that Arthur never died and will return one day…

Since it was a fairly common name, you might as well say John from Richmond is a confirmed individual.

Also, Gangnam style. 13 years ago.

Children, which to me is everyone born in the 2005+ are already turning 20. Hell, the iPhone can already vote.

Rollercoaster Tycoon

I’ll propose Age of Empires 1. That one is my childhood pretty much 😄

Use lottiefiles or something similar. That seems the defacto standard for vector animations on mobile and the web.

Yeah early Netflix was great, now it’s too fragmented. Like a Tidal or Spotify would be useless if they would be fragmented on the same level.

I saw a link on Lemmy to a “GoG” clone on which you can download all games for free.

Like of all the places not to pirate I would assume the company that enforces no DRM, direct downloads that you can save indefinitely and that makes older games work on newer hardware, would be on the top of that list.

Since those are such common complaints on why to pirate.

Next to that they have deals often where the prices are already really low.

Competing with free is near impossible.

Oh my god I hated those scale checkouts in the US. “Please remove bag from area” etc.

I’m a software engineer, I bring my backpack everywhere. I thought it was about lovin’ the backpack.

The main difference, mine is green. It doesn’t always have my laptop in it though, I use it for groceries etc too.

Here in the Netherlands we had some teacher who wrote a (small) book on “How to write professionally” and of course that book was mandatory.

That indeed was a great OS.

That OS was the last of Apple to come on optical media. So, no pushing. Buying physically.

Back in the day there was a Mac OS update (Snow Leopard) that took gigabytes off. They dropped support for PowerPC CPUs. So the compiled binaries basically got slashed in half.

The goals of Snow Leopard were improved performance, greater efficiency and the reduction of its overall memory footprint, unlike previous versions of Mac OS X which focused more on new features. Apple famously marketed Snow Leopard as having “zero new features”.[13] Its name signified its goal to be a refinement of the previous OS X version, Leopard.

Showers also work great. 🚿

This post was also posted yesterday, but yeah, with ChatGPT you can execute random code. It is however in a VM of some sorts, so just trying to delete things won’t do that much.

It doesn’t kill the LLM instance, internally it just calls an API to run the generated code on a machine if you ask for it.

Sending the audio to an LLM in the sky. But I assume it would be local?

This is good 💩
