@nextcloud I'd love to see a fully self contained docker image so I can kick the tires without reading an installation manual

It blows my mind that people still think it's okay to smoke in public

Well, there go my weekend plans. Tested positive for COVID. No symptoms, but a friend I saw Saturday and Monday tested positive so I wanted to be sure

COVID take 2, day 2 - still no symptoms to speak of. Cases sweeping through my "parents of the kids' friends" friend group. Hooray back-to-school!

@grammargirl I've been trying to teach my daughter this. The pizza place a block away makes really good calzones but they're huge. I always try to save half for lunch the next day but she resists

@grammargirl I can never be sure if English is the stupidest language or the most wonderful language so I think it might be both

My 15 year old daughter is looking for dystopian novels. She wants The Hunger Games but she's read that, and Maze Runner and probably all the well-known ones. Suggestions?

She is somewhat amusingly looking for male heroes, I think she's tired of the "16-year-old girl saves the world" because she's about to BE a 16-year-old girl and doesn't think there's any way she's saving much of anything

@h4890 @peter then why hasn't China done it? They don't care about our IP law

@peter @h4890 I want a sub-$50 e-ink tablet I can hang on the wall in the kitchen for recipes. It needs basic internet (looking up recipe substitutions if I'm missing something or reminding me dry to cooked ratios or whatever). I hate having to wake up my phone a dozen times especially if I have stuff on my hands

@peter your argument DOES imply that LLMs DO have practical uses, just not good ones yet

@ZachWeinersmith he can't possibly be acknowledging that education is a valuable exports and selling college to foreign students is good for the US economy

Jo-Ann Fabrics is not "going out of business". They were driven out of business by a private equity firm, because that's what private equity does. This was the intended outcome. The Right People made a ton of money, and the company disappears
