I swear I saw a Tom Scott video about this, but quite some time ago. Possibly same method but different insect…

X had a predecessor called W that ran on an operating system called V.

Can I have a go on your time machine?

Lol I really shoulda looked it up first

Probably-crones-disease homies, represent

without pulling out your phone, [doing phone stuff x10]

Ding ding ding.

Everyone is so focused on AR glasses having some killer use case that must justify it’s existence. The use case is simply not pulling a phone out of your pocket; not waiting for face ID, tapping your way to the necessary app, and so on.

Removing these micro inconveniences has always been Apple’s forte (even if a little stagnant in recent years), so it’s no surprise that they will continue to pursue the same.

You don’t have to strap the internet to someone’s face to distort their reality with it, as demonstrated by… Well, gestures broadly

Why is it when I miss a day of Daily Show it’s eviscerated from my feed entirely, but no matter how many Jordan Peterson thumbnails I hastily pass over, they still appear week in week out?

To date I’ve watched one JP video: Matt Dillahunty verbally tearing him a new asshole.

The right wing rabbit hole is real and, even if you’re explicitly against it, YouTube is like “if I can get him to watch just one …”, because they know they’ll have you watching videos like the guy from Clockwork Orange in no time. It’s disgusting.

Pro tip: never press “do not show me this” on right wing videos, just skip over them. That engagement causes the algorithm to mark you as emotionally triggered by politics and they’ll just shovel more of the same in your face. For them it’s just a roll of the dice, and the value of them flipping you is too high to avoid.

Looks like someone decompiled it and compared it to RTEMS code.

What I don’t get is that RTEMs appears to be dual licensed, with one being under BSD… So they would just need to attribute somewhere and then they would be fully compliant.

Maybe the bigger picture is more complicated than that though.

I built a thermostat with a Wemos D1 mini and a relay module about 10 years ago.

Still use it today integrated with home assistant and can turn the heat on and off while away from home. It’s been reused across three boilers, no parts replaced.

It was a really fun project and I had virtually no experience with Arduino when starting out. Would recommend it to anyone.

As a long time Bethesda game fan I agree with you on almost everything you’ve said about Bethesda… But the remaster is a terrible example of your points.

The remaster does exactly what it says on the tin and they’ve been very upfront about how it was made and why it was made in the launch video.

It’s hard to criticise them for cashing in on nostalgia when they’ve shown time and time again with Skyrim re-releases that do a fraction of what the Oblivion remaster does still sell like hot cakes.

Nostalgia is at the core of their business model. That’s why they march Skyrim’s corpse out every two years like clockwork; that’s why they picked Fallout for a new franchise after ES; that’s, frankly, likely why Starfield sucks so much.

I noticed that Arduino are using it for the 2.0 of their IDE. I guess a big part of the benefit here is providing a workbench base for different types of IDE with different goals, similarly to Eclipse.

Not a million miles away from VSC’s extension model but it allows deeper customisation which is fantastic for embedded hardware and software houses that need that deep integration without dealing with vendor lock in.

Is 51 not a self tapper? Limited experience but it’s got that helter skelter look to it

Hilarious question to ask at dinner parties with the right kind of crowd. It’s incredible watching people find out that their spouse stands.

Also, standers: represent!

The comment I replied to said “at work”, not “while working”

Sure people have breaks, lunches … It’s not unusual to read news or social media during these times.

Iron and Wine do another great cover of this song

Is this the end of the metaverse?

I mean, it was DOA so I guess my question is more: is this Zuckerberg acknowledging that the metaverse is dead, finally?

Else it gets the cord again

There’s a reveal trailer and a launch trailer for Clair Obscura that give very different perspectives on the plot, well worth watching both.

Obligatory: thanks for all the daily posts!
