Say what you will about The Last Jedi, it's the only #starWars movie that introduces a new phrase to the canon without actually saying it

I want to switch to Jellyfin but I'm stalling because my Emby metadata took a while to curate and Emby-plus nag screens haven't annoyed me quite enough
but it's coming

Mando season 3: was there a gas leak in the writer's room or something? God, this season was terrible.
(Terrible by Mando standards, still better than the prequels.)
Second, aurebesh. I'll admit I've come around to all the on-screen writing being displayed in it, it helps sell the alien-ness of the setting. But like. You really could have done a better job and I'm annoyed that you didn't. You have infinite money, you should have gone with a conphabet that's actually good.
Like, The Fifth Element did this pretty well, actually (unsurprising, as it did just about everything pretty well) -- the unfamiliar script on the police helmets (e.g.) was still scannable to someone familiar with Latin glyphs, but was also unfamiliar while being plausible.
If you're going to go with replacing *all* the on-screen text with your English cipher, you really ought to make it at least scannable with some effort to the intended audience. Otherwise there's no reason for the on-screen text to say anything at all, you might as well do a Bluey.

(This might actually be in the following book but) the parts listing in excruciating detail the dimensions, materials, and colors of every aspect of the tabernacle are fairly tedious, as are the legal text-like parts talking about sin offerings and purity offerings and all the various other kinds of offerings in basically word-for-word copypasta.
I've only read through the Bible a couple times, I'm more of an enthusiast than a scholar. >_<

Can't wait for you to passive-aggressively tell me you "got the hint" a week or two from now, as if me frantically closing the app before you could see me with your dead, dead eyes wasn't hint enough

Check out my personalized learning plan, Duolingo? Oh, did my 0.2 second visit lead you to believe I had reconsidered my decades of silence? Do you suppose, based on a login *shorter than the app's loading time,* that I was proposing to pick up where we left off, in ... *checks notes* ... level 2 Welsh?

2024-06-12 07:35:49

I accidentally butt-opened Duolingo. Closed it before it fully loaded but for naught, it was too late, I had been seen. The first emails have begun to arrive. I anticipate the storm. The deluge cometh.

AI is being shoved into everything because the more noise there is out there, the harder it becomes to recognize the signal

2024-06-08 07:18:17

It's wild, the shit we Linux people will put up with.
Closing my laptop lid toggles the wifi, sometimes twice. I spent a few hours parsing logs and remapping buttons until I decided it wasn't worth investing any more time fixing, so I just live with it.

2024-06-05 20:59:58

so this MS copilot recall stuff is OS-based, right? not hardware?

2024-06-03 15:42:05

"I want AI to do the dishes so I can make art, not make art so I can do the dishes" (paraphrasing one making the rounds)
So do we all, but ... the rich and powerful want AI to make art so they don't have to waste money on artists and writers. Right?
Is there more?
Art is where rebellion begins. Art brings joy and hope, art tells truth.
Are they trying to kill art altogether?

(this is a minor nitpick, and I know the answer is that the Manjaro installer is the same one basically every distro uses, I love Manjaro because having installed Arch at least once I'm over it now)

2024-06-02 08:06:32

Finally got around to reinstalling Manjaro on the work terminal and like.
It annoys the crumbs out of me that I can't set the system timezone to UTC during install. If you *must* force us to pick a timezone, why wouldn't you just ... list all the possible time zones?

walnuts and sunflower seeds are good to replace pine nuts

I'm not the first person to think of these, by any means
I think the innies are AIs that are initialized with an imprint of parts of the outies' brains.
I think that the outie and the innie share a subconscious, or rather that the innie shares the outie's subconscious, using it as a source for ... emotional entropy? raison d'etre? the je ne sais quoi of humanity?
i think if you, say, put an ai in a comatose or brain-dead person's brain, you'd get a mind without a "soul." i think that such an individual would be portrayed as very one-dimensional, almost robotic.
i don't think gemma survived the crash

how did the phrase "my ass" come to be an expression of scornful disbelief?
feels like it's eroded from some medieval "fie! 'twere more likely my arse would comest a beefcow"
