Probably got possessed by the devil when he played dungeons and dragons as a kid.

I would assume that they have more than six briefs in total.

I think the easiest way to get started is StreetComplete: https://streetcomplete.app/

It will show you places in your vicinity where information is missing, like opening hours of shops, or the existence of ramps at stairs, and you can provide them in a really simple interface. You can filter out questions you don’t like to answer as well.

I want an animated show of the Stormlight Archives. Something in the style of the Netflix Castlevania series or similar. I don’t think a live action show could do it justice without an insane budget.

The trick with nicknames is using them in alphabetical order.

You can prefix the coordinates with the name of the current nearest star or center of galaxy.

Universal coordinates are fairly useless anyway, given how everything moves around in space.

Hey, don’t forget the Matlab people

🕷️

The jupyter console is just a better version of the interactive shell. Great for just trying out some lines of code.

I also use notebooks at work to try out some APIs, to skip the tedium of the initial setup or some other routines.

That still leaves the microphone.

The actual simple and sane solution would just be to require indicator leds hardwired to the literal power supply lines of the camera chip/microphone, so they’re physically impossible top turn off while recording.

But that would require US or EU legislation.

John Powell’s opening for How to Train your Dragon deserves a shoutout for including every major Leitmotiv of the movie.

I’ll let someone smarter go into 18 minutes of more detail here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4UUJQH7GLms

a big open world planet with a dense series of dystopian cities, alongside underground resource-rich zones.

That is stupidly overambitious and will necessarily lead to a lack of detail and charm.

Except for Nazis. Always hate those guys.

It basically was a dynamic form, where the next questions were based on the previous answers.

I recently had an important package get rerouted to a pickup box, but the incompetent driver (who did not even manage to reply “hello package” on the intercom) forgot to leave the retrieval card in my mailbox.

After searching the DHL website for a contwct option for way longer than it should take, I saw a small note stating that their chatbot can give you retrieval codes, so I decided to try that.

It was not AI powered, but provided prompts to click, or asked for very specific short replies like the tracking number. Similar to an automated phone system but with text. I took a wrong turn at some point and had to start over, but it actually worked really well and I got the code after about 3 minutes.

Bought a cheap 5€ safety razor some years back and liked it. I kept cutting my face, but I thought I’m just too stupid to shave.

Bought a 20€ razor later on. Turns out I’m not stupid, the 5€ one was just bad.

The power draw of old refrigerators is like 5-10 times higher than a modern one.

And thousands of refrigerators bought in the 1940s have been in landfills since the 1950s.

Weirdly enough, that’s a uniquely US problem.
