a lot of what might’ve been archaically formal and polite ways to say ‘you’ have become ironically rude and/or condescending.

You can do something similar in English through sarcastic statements with inappropriately polite forms of address. e.g. saying “Well, excuse me, sire!” to someone with a sassy tone of voice should be interpreted as “I’m offended” or “I can’t believe you just did that, you asshole” or similar depending on context.

Are you doing anything like network mounts? I’ve had freezes happen when home was mounted remotely. I’ve also had freezes before – though not recently – when doing extremely intensive I/O operations. I’ve also seen it with failing hardware, but I don’t remember what hardware was failing specifically (if we ever found out – that was an always-on display system at work, and we might have just replaced it since it was ancient at that point…).

See if you can switch from GUI to console (either on the system or SSH-ing in). Usually the Ctrl-Alt-Fn keys switch between GUI and full screen console modes if you’re physically there to try it. If you can get in, you might be able to get some insight into what’s going on from logs, top, etc. while it’s happening.

Nice!

Edit: do you have to disassemble the controller (with a screwdriver or something) or is it accessible with just my hands? I swap (rechargeable) AAs on my XBox360 controller quite a bit, and part of why I like it is that I can do it quickly if the battery dies while playing.

Now if it just had a replaceable battery…

It doesn’t work in Firefox though… (unless you’re running Nightly, I think).

If that doesn’t work when you try again later, then try searching in the community@example.com format specifically, and also try searching for the URL of a specific post – that might get it to federate the post and then you should be to access the magazine from that if it succeeds.

If that still doesn’t work, message the admin of your instance and ask them for help.

Good luck.

Try searching for the community explicitly – e.g. community@example.com – that should make the server aware that it exists. You may also need to subscribe to keep it from going stale, IIRC.

It’s been a while since my time on kbin, so apologies if I’m remembering something incorrectly or if mbin has diverged since then.

Don’t put them in until they are ripe. Once they are the right level of ripeness for you, you can extend them being in that state for several days by putting them in the fridge.

Sounds like you’re a technical manager now – or, at least, most of the way there – just with LLMs as your reports instead of junior devs…

I still write my code by hand in xed. I’m not exactly anti-AI (my feelings are mixed); I’m just the kind of programmer who wasn’t using IDEs even before the LLM craze started…

By HTPC, do you mean just playing videos? If so, you’re probably fine as-is for most content.

Call the manufacturer – if it’s commercially produced, there’s usually a number on the jar somewhere. I’ve done that when I bought cereal that had a badly sealed bag inside and got sent coupons worth more than the cost of the item for taking the trouble to report it.

Yeísmo – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeísmo

The double L in many Spanish dialects turning into a Y sound.

Maxwell (the GTX970) I believe is still receiving updates from Nvidia so probably fine.

NVIDIA dropped regular support for it last month. They will get fixes for critical security issues only (until 2028). (source)

If you’re interested in building a new general purpose search engine, it probably makes the most sense to start with Common Crawl’s data set and augment it rather than starting from scratch.

I don’t know about MicroPython or Arduino specifically, but I often call code I wrote in C or C++ using ctypes from regular Python.

That’s more or less how I read it, yeah. Pretty sure the authors were thinking in terms of GUIs having a field to enter that info when you make a user account on a system but I think something like that would meet the intent for programs to access the user’s declared age.

California fuckwit OS age verification means I’m going offline soon.

Go read the actual bill. It has issues, but it’s not an ID requirement. It’s an “are you over 18?” type of check (with several brackets) at the OS level.
