You can install the Play store on their tablets, but some major apps marked fire tablets as incompatible on the Play store, forcing you to download them from Amazon.

“You can’t take American taxpayers who paid for roads and block them out and say you can’t access this unless you pay additional money,” Duffy said in the administration’s defense.

Has this jabroni never heard of a toll road?

In case you haven’t seen it, Tom7 created a delightful exploration of using an LLM to manipulate word counts.

Don’t use a mist humidifier. They suck. Use an evaporative one and add bacteriostat to the water.

Mine is a tub of water with a wick in it. It has a fan that blows air across the wick. That’s it.

They are talking about themselves in the third dragson.

Google removed “Don’t be evil”

Still parading that lie around? It’s easily verified as false. Their code of conduct ends with:

And remember… don’t be evil, and if you see something that you think isn’t right – speak up!

Schools on military bases.

That was a wonderful ride.

TL;DR: In the late 1800’s, a need for machine-assisted engraving developed. A font was created in tandem with an engraving machine. Over the next hundred years, a huge portion of engraving machines came with something related to this font by default.

It’s the ancestor of many technical drawing fonts because early lettering guides were made using these engravers. It’s the basis for many classic keyboard caps and typewriter keys. It’s on every nametag from the 1930s to 1990s. But most of all, if you wanted a durable sign and weren’t a graphic designer, it’s what you got for most of the last century.

The Fedora flatpacks are pretty shit, not the overall concept.

They have individual people maintaining over a thousand flatpacks. There’s no time to test anything.

Additionally, if you go to install the real flatpack, Fedora pushes you to use their poorly-maintained unofficial one instead.

Depends on your cat. Mine have never messed with TP rolls once they are mounted. My current one had his litter box a foot from our TP mount for a few years, so he had plenty of opportunity.

He does like biting them while they are still packaged though.

Kidpix?

Steam has a decent review system at least. The eShop is truly horrible.

Imaginarium Of Dr. Parnassus - Incredible cast, strange film. Very enjoyable.

Looking at the code, my guess was incorrect.

When counting the length of an article, it is not calculated correctly. It appears that this is because spaces before periods aren’t stripped out before performing the count, making those periods count as their own words.

I’m too tired to figure out how to make it let me push to a branch right now. I have opened an issue that explains how to fix it.

Looks like it counts the text “AI Summary” in the word count. The article is so short it dropped one unnecessary word, resulting in one more word total.

Landing gear were down, so it was likely coming in for a landing when the incident occurred. Based on the height and positioning, maybe an attempted go-around that ended in abandoning the craft entirely.

Mario AI

One of the things Notch (of Minecraft fame) was known for before MC was a Mario remake that infinitely generated levels and had API hooks for quantifying progress. This was used in AI competitions.

Similarly, one of the old Trackmania games has been modified to output position and track info around the player along with fitness measures, allowing someone to train AIs.

It’s not a conservative party, it’s a big tent party. At this point the only broadly accepted party line is ‘sanity.’

Far-right manipulation is so effective that they can reasonably compete with everyone else combined.

Graham Hancock

Yeah, this can be safely assumed to be bullshit.
