It didn’t mention halving a third.

The issue is it’s an LLM. It puts words in an order that’s statistically plausible but has no reasoning power.

Must have been the 323, before they rebranded to 3 in the early 2000s. Shame for you it was broken, they were good drivers’ cars in a modest way

It’s obviously trivial energy waste in the big picture, but it’s 100% waste if you don’t need it. Like turning on lights in empty rooms.

wasting energy to somehow stick it to the man?

Exhibit 56845 why humanity is fucking doomed.

I was just thinking of the likes of what you get for searching for esp32 audio kit on AliExpress. About us$12. Has microphones, amplifiers, buttons etc.

Esp32 is very suitable but they jumped through a lot of hoops to recreate the ESP audio development boards you can buy for very little money with all of those parts already built in.

floppy drive, hard drive, sechs drive — we got building blocks. Crowd sourcing a joke could work.

Avoid categories where a lot of items have fake specs (storage devices, LED bulbs, anything that claims a runtime on a Li-Ion battery)

I’d say be aware rather than avoid. E.g I bought a $10 camping lantern that claimed 2.5 times its true capacity, but it still runs for hours and is a great, well designed, if flimsy, product for the price.

The sort option by “orders” is good for this. Far from infallible but still useful.

Excellent, the punchline is sorted, now we just need the rest of the joke.

That’s a much broader term.

I’ve had buffalo wings, and American barbecue. Also I’ve been to American Thanksgiving meals with weird things like sweet potatoes with marshmallows on. So I’ve had some American ethnic food for one thing.

I would ascribe the same virtues to org mode, but to give one answer to my own question, markdown is entirely editor independent which is generally a plus, though least so for personal notes where org can export to many formats (including markdown).

With org and Emacs there are other benefits like integrated personal to-do and agenda management which is why I have favored it over markdown. But even though I’m a committed Emacs user, being primarily an Emacs format is a philosophical negative if not a practical one for me in this case.

I’m curious why markdown works better for you?

I just switched to denote - liking the simple elegance.

I’m skeptical - I was recently eating outside literally watching three of them come at my ankles while people sitting right beside me were being left alone.

Yep, I was thinking Lemmyversary.

Your analysis is good but you conclusion is … fucked up.

We’re not facing a problem, we’re in a predicament.

We always have, we always will

That’s a statement of religious faith. We have barely ever even existed so it’s plainly nonsense, and there is no rule of the universe that we must continue to exist or that we cannot unfixably destroy our planet’s ability to support us. You’re just baselessly asserting “they’ll think of something”.
