Guessing he’s more concerned about his foot than the prop, which is what axe kicks and stomps are good for: delivering force without risking injury to the more delicate parts of your foot.

Oh yeah, if I had a packet of it here right now I’d just eat it directly. Like they could have made a successful business out of just selling those two sauces I bet.

Yeah, though at least pressure doesn’t really factor in, which I think is where most cases of steam breaching a water seal comes in to play. But if gases can be exchanged, steam is way higher humidity than air normally and can condense inside.

My guess would be the odds of a soap or steam breach on a water resistant phone is very low, but if you bring your phone in for every shower, you might be tempting those odds.

Shit like that used to bug me but eventually I realized it was a waste of time getting set off by incorrect word use or spelling. As long as the message isn’t ambiguous, who cares? And even when it’s on the border, it’s often clear enough from the context what they really mean (though can be fun to deliberately misinterpret it).

Or just get a water resistant phone. Though I would suggest caution when it’s soapy water because that affects the surface tension of the water, which could mean some can slip past the seals that normally keep water out.

Though I have a water resistant phone but have never brought it into the shower with me. It was more of a case of not wanting to be worried about my phone in any kind of a situation involving water. Like going in to one of those 3D movie attractions with moving seats that sprayed water, I was concerned about whether I should be concerned about my phone getting wet. Turned out to be just tiny amounts of water and nothing to be concerned about even if I had my phone out, but after that I wanted to remove that worry from the list entirely.

I really can’t understand the hate Arby’s gets. I unironically believe it’s one of the best fast food places out there. Their roast beef is delicious, especially with their cheddar sauce, their BBQ sauce is one of the best (out of fast food ones, it doesn’t stand up as well when you expand the comparison to all sauces out there), and their horsey sauce is great, too. And their seasoned curly fries taste great on their own and their shape makes them pick up dilling sauce very well.

Or maybe their Canadian locations that I’ve been to were just outliers and way better quality than their average?

The lack of self-awareness here is hilarious. Just jumping in completely unprompted to say how nice it is when people don’t hate like in that other community that you hate so much.

I’m not sure Cell could take them. All three of them had a reputation of being significantly stronger than already established very powerful entities in their respective stories.

Their income is based on trust: that their target trusts them to keep their end of the bargain when paid. Without that trust, there’s no reason to pay them or engage at all other than to try to trap them.

Held hostage? I don’t get how anyone can suspend their disbelief enough to not feel like a tool “romancing” a sophisticated text predictor.

Even if you need to collate a bunch of data, don’t use an LLM for that, use a script, spreadsheet, matlab, or a compiled program that does real data analysis. Hell, even training a different NN on it would give more reliable results more efficiently.

LLMs are best when the stakes are low or for tasks where even if they give the worst possible response, it won’t affect anything.

It’s kinda pathetic if that’s the case because the affirmation from LLM is the opposite of genuine, though maybe that’s my bias knowing that there isn’t even an entity on the other side and I find it annoying it even wastes tokens on emotional platitudes.

Yeah, as the other commenter mentioned, git is a distributed source control system, so all clones have the full history (though you can bump up the “starting point” to reduce the overhead of storing all previous commits).

Hosts like github can add more features on top of that, which would have to be backed up separately, but you can automate the repository itself using a single command, which is the same command used to make a clone in the first place.

Forced, like by gun-wielding AI bots?

IMO everyone should have a local backup of everything they can get related to the repo. Like I know with git itself, anytime you clone the repo you get everything, but also the supporting stuff that is in the layer outside of git. IMO the host should mainly be the hub where everyone gets and interacts with the project, while everything else is already good to go in a new location, should the host either screw up in good faith, get corrupted by outside influences, or gets overrun by local or remote powers.

This makes me a bit curious about whether the overall risk to projects is higher from individual local device failure or politics around who controls remote hosting services and the nature of the project.

The cloud is already a thing.

The whole idea of ads being added to AI chatbots make them seem even more useless and unreliable to me. They already predict shit that can be called “outright lie” without adding even more lies in the form of advertisements.

Especially where they are being used for productivity, which kinda reeks of them eventually charging even more so that your email summary doesn’t include a blurb about whether you should crave the same brawno that plants do (unless it’s there because the AI used to write the email was the one that inserted the ad) or to prevent your vibecoded mess from getting stuck in a taco bell-sponsored spam loop.

I’d extend the advice to be more general and say if you are doing anything more sensitive or important than basically a casual chat about something interesting, you shouldn’t be using remote models because they are likely logging everything.

I like digital games on PC, not gonna lie.

But the only money I’m spending on the consoles I have is on used games. That’s what makes them worthwhile for me. I spent stupid money on the ps5 and psvr2 because my library of games could be built at a discount, and maybe every now and then I’ll get a new game that looks interesting because I have the system already. I bought the disc version of the ps5 specifically, not right at launch but close enough to it that I had to look around to find one (and said no thanks to the driveless ones that were available). Can’t remember if it was for the ps5 or psvr2 but for one of them I even held my nose and got it from walmart, which I try to avoid when possible.

Though the writing is already on the wall with these things. So many games are already just download codes even if they are on a disc or card, which means they require active support just to install and once that’s gone (either by Sony or publisher’s choice), then that game is gone. And I know you assholes think that’s a good thing because it means someone who would otherwise be playing that game needs to find something else to do and that something else might be buying another new game. So ultimately it doesn’t really matter if you (Sony) use discs or not, since removing them entirely is really just slamming that final nail in the coffin, but it’s already there just waiting for the hammer. I probably won’t get the next PlayStation either way.

Like how did action game character end up in farming simulator?
