Fun fact: if true AGI were a thing, those AI programs would be people and not paying them for their work would be slavery.

iOS is Apple’s operating system for phones and tablets, MacOS is Apple’s OS for desktops and laptops.


Remember, the only Sith who is also a human supremacist was from Naboo.
But does Audacious whip the llama’s ass?


Seagate drives are like crows - if you don’t get along with one, they tell their friends and harass you. For any given user, either Seagate drives are perfectly fine and last ages no matter what is done to them, or every single one they touch will self destruct with the lightest use for no reason. That it really does seem to vary by user rather than specific models or production runs is the baffling part.


I had a shortcut on my taskbar to terminate and reinitialize Pulse. It got used multiple times a day.


In other instances I’ve seen that use a knob to navigate menus, which is mostly car stereo systems, rotating the knob clockwise would always go down the menu and counter clockwise would always go up the menu. This actually seems to be an industry standard.


Given that typical gestation time is less than one year, that involves some planning and determination.


See, I don’t really want full AR. I want a HUD, a very small number of rudimentary AR features, like floating windows for text documents or videos, physical buttons on the arms of the glasses, small drivers by the ears for audio, and battery life that will last most of the day. I already have to wear glasses and if I’m paying more for extra features I want ones that will last the whole time I might want them, not just the six or so hours a day that the current offerings have.


Drop the cameras and microphones and replace them with a couple accelerometers and gyros. Paired with your phone’s GPS tracking, the glasses can tell where you’re looking without actually seeing anything. You can get handy features like a floating ‘turn here’ sign over your exit while driving with GPS navigation without recording anyone or anything at any time. Better battery life, too.
On Ubuntu’s old Unity DE that top panel housed app menus and merged with maximized windows. And you could tap a button to search those menus. I wish they would reimplement those features.
Well, sometimes they denote different people. They also sometimes represent recurring characters.
Beret Guy, Black Hat, and Danish are the same character each time.
At the other end of the spectrum, Ponytail and White Hat are just whoever the comic needs at the time. Sometimes they show signs they’re a recurring character, but usually probably just a one-off.
In the middle of the spectrum are Cueball and Megan. These are the generic male and female designs and the most frequently seen. They’re usually probably just one-offs, but both have two distinct recurring roles as well. The first is Cueball as an unnamed male character and Megan as Megan, with the two of them being a couple. The second is Cueball as the comic’s author and Megan as his wife, with this being most apparent in the cancer strips.


Well, it depends, really. What is he smoking?


No, you’re thinking of Sprite, specifically the bottle caps.


His character is actually Lithuanian, so he shouldn’t have a Russian accent. Not that Scottish is accurate…


I could not for the life of me get used to using the left pad mapped as a stick, and d-pad stuff on the stick just felt wrong. Still loved the controller, though.


Something something torment nexus something something.


Which makes sense because even 1080p streaming is garbage compared to blu-ray.
They also tend to spell out the way the character deceived you without lying anyway, so just flat out having a character tell you that another character lied wouldn’t be weird.
Or because of that recent ruling that you can’t copyright AI generated images. If Disney can’t copyright the videos Sora produces, then it’s useless to them.
