I’m from Europe and I already met one in my hometown. The other day, it even damaged scaffolding on the Powder Gate in Prague, while it was, hilariously, riding on the bed of a tow truck.

Edit: The individual approval itself is already highly controversial: https://www.wired.com/story/a-rubberized-cybertruck-is-ploughing-through-european-pedestrian-safety-rules/

“Come with me if you want to live”

It’s like Bizarro World of the Factorio universe. The more complex products are easier to manufacture than raw products. I also love the look of those scraps on belts getting fed into the recyclers. Can’t wait for what Scrapheap Challenges that will bring.

I mean, there’s /r/SubSimulatorGPT2 that’s been running for years… Although that one was at least hilarious to read because at that stage the AI was in the sweet spot of being simultaneously coherent while making total lapses in logic.

Then I guess it’s only in some countries. I’ve seen articles saying it wasn’t available in Europe as a whole but maybe that’s old news.

I’m just glad Copilot isn’t available in Europe.

Yes, it was a joke. That said:

Bitters need constant attention and prevention.

In vanilla with standard settings, after a certain point, they really don’t, they just become another thing to automate. Once you have good defenses set up and enough artillery canons built (or artillery train scheduled), you don’t need to pay attention to biters anymore.

Do we get peaceful asteroids though?

I mean yeah, but on the other hand with hydrogen you have much more control over when and where you use the electricity as you can choose to manufacture most of it during off-peak periods and when renewables create excess energy. Then you can transport it by pipes or by trucks/ships without overwhelming the electric grid.

Goodbye Bluesky

Yeah, that’s no moon.

The “No nesting” rule should apparently apply not only to model rail but also to log cabins.

Which is great when you already have established bands and albums you want to listen to. Not so great for discovering new music and genres which is where Spotify really shines for me.

By they way, I just found out that they removed the button, but typing cache:www.example.com into Google still redirects you to the cached version (if it exists). But who knows for how long. And there’s the question whether they’ll continue to cache new pages.

Were so many people using it to avoid ads?

I doubt that as well. There are much better ways to deal with ads. I always only used it when the content on the page didn’t exist anymore or couldn’t be accessed for whatever reason.

But I suspected this was coming, they’ve been hiding this feature deeper and deeper in the last few years.

Well that really sucks because it was often the only way to actually find the content on the page that the Google results “promised”. For numerous reasons - sometimes the content simply changes, gets deleted or is made inaccessible because of geo-fencing or the site is straight up broken and so on.

Yes, there’s archive.org but believe it or not, not everything is there.

Carefully organized sand.^[1]

I like my websites RAW, they’re not going to spy on me with those cascading styles and I do not want anything to interpret HTML for me, I will interpret it according to myself and not according to how some corporation wants. Wake up sheeple! /s

Or even just for a minimalistic mall.

That doesn’t work even as a hyperbole. I literally just opened an Excel spreadsheet with 51192 rows (I had Outlook already open) and those two programs still only take 417 MB of RAM combined. Meanwhile Firefox is at 2.5 GB. Yes, my total RAM currently used is 13.8 GB but I have 64 GB of RAM installed and you should know that generally the more RAM you have, the more of it gets utilized by the system (this is true for all modern OS, not just Windows) which is a good thing, because it means better performance, since you can cache more things in RAM that would otherwise needed to be read from disk. Unused RAM is wasted RAM. So even if one computer uses 16 GB of RAM for some relatively simple tasks, it doesn’t necessarily mean it wouldn’t run or grind to a halt on a system with less RAM.
