Thank you! Now configured.

Think I'll thrown mullenweg in there while I'm at it.

And now thanks to Intergalactic Warming, these storms will be bigger and even more frequent.

... once the new maps come out, POTUS may suddenly want to annex YOU.

... about when the numerous elderly run roughshod over the outnumbered youngsters: Boomers of the Corn.

You're approaching a border crossing. Before your plane lands, you put your phone into this new mode (call it "future wipe"), with an amount of time you enter at that moment. This locks the phone until your password is next entered. If the amount of time specified passes before your password is entered, the phone wipes itself; no action necessary.

I have looked through the manual; I found nothing. Which doesn't surprise me, since I assume the manufacturer deems it in their own interests to not have these things turned off.

I bought a can of this about a year ago, it works pretty well. I sprayed it all around the outside perimeter of the house, and a few choice inside spots. You have to re-apply it every 6 months or so, but worth it.

And nobody knows how to do that, and if they did there's no guarantee the car would keep working. I bring this up to prevent the quoted statement from making someone think that "disabling your car modem is a thing" people do... it isn't, despite many -- like myself -- very much wanting to do so.

Have a little faith, everything will be fine! I have not yet read an account of AI doing something awful for which it failed to offer a heartfelt apology afterward.

"I'm sorry. I seem to have burned down your house, despite your clear instructions not to do so. I'm very, very, terribly sorry."

I wonder what the ven overlap would be of the categories "capable of running offline model" and "likely to fall in love with chatbot".

I initially thought the above headline meant "MacOS capable of running Asahi Linux on Apple Silicon"... where as it appears the article is instead about almost the opposite, an incompatibility with a recent Apple change hampering its ability to run Asahi linux.

I'd rephrase that as: Most people don't understand how much they have to hide, and -- because it's daunting for them to create an alternate tech ecosystem for themselves -- they psychologically push aside whatever nagging worries they have about what they might indeed want to hide.

Put another way: people are addicted to the current status quo, and trapped by their lack of tech expertise. Which is not the same as objectively self-assessing that they have nothing to hide.

... that it was just a typo by a guy naming the device after himself, "Bob"

Dangit, I really wanted to buy a parrot...

My understanding is that this isn't a consequence of a flawed training algorithm or process; it's instead a consequence of the limitations of LLMs, emergent from their training materials. It closely parallels another example I've seen around the net, that of asking an LLM about getting a car to the mechanic, noting it's a sunny day and the mechanic is just a block away, and having the LLM suggest walking... which is a consequence of the bias in training materials toward walking because lots of people make visible posts about their having done so (because it's looked on favorably), whereas people who drive short distances (of which there are many, probably outnumbering walkers) don't trumpet having done so online, leading LLMs to emit advice about walking when possible (and in the case of the mechanic example, having a lack of comprehension of the pivotal aspect of having the car make it with you to the mechanic's shop).
