I thought it was called watermark or something, but supposedly it’s an IE-only setting called fixed:

I’m a bit annoyed it’s not Mario Odyssey 2 (I was annoyed when DK Bonanza wasn’t either), but I’ll probably get it. It was a pretty good trailer.

Why not, everyone loves Yakety Sax

Sock/sock, shoe/shoe. I’m not a monster.

Which championship? Which sport? Which country in the UK?

This is actually the primary reason I switched from Pixel to iPhone. I was sick and fed up of leaving the house, opening up the pixel buds case and 1 bud not connecting, or having minimal charge, or it just cuts out after a minute of listening to something. Standing in the middle of the street troubleshooting earbuds whilst I just want to listen to something whilst going somewhere was so frustrating. Moved to iphone and airpods - not had an issues since (about 2 years now). Yes I tried different earbuds with my pixel. No, they weren’t any better. In-fact I still have some and they work better with my iphone.

I don’t go in for fanboism when it comes to tech companies, but the build quality of Samsung and Google is atrocious.

It mentions this GDID is sent in telemetry. So this guy kept using a hosted proxy, meaning his egress IP was always changing accessing different services, but everytime his Windows 11 machine was sending back telemetry (which included his GDID) they were logging the IP address he was appearing from (the proxy) - so they were able to track and identify him.

Thought I was having a moment.

Coin Side NCES

Internal thought occurred: You really are a grammar Nazi.

The UK has RRP as an equivalent, but they address the problem differently really. MRP is stop price gauging I think, whereas RRP is there to incentivise retailers to offer discounts to lure more customers.

We also have co-op’s that run supermarkets and banks, but they compete against private companies.

I think Europe is fairly social in its services (healthcare, pensions, etc.).

I’ve just realised I haven’t used anything like that in 20 years. Macromedia Dreamweaver, those were the days!

UK here, I was definitely the last person renting in my circle, bought a house mid to late 30s. Feels like everyone else bought 10 years before.

Blue jeans, blue blazer and brown shoes is the norm nowadays.

Hear me out…

How do we know it wasn’t a peaceful person leaving a hand written note begging for no more datacentres, when their nemesis, Dr Datacentre, drove past and started shooting at him?

and the fact it is “legal currency” but not officially legal tender (even in Scotland itself), it’s weird.

The legal tender argument/debate kinda annoys me as people seem to think it has something to do with legitimacy.

“Legal tender” in England and Wales is money that the English and Welsh courts will accept in payment for debt. So the Courts said we accept money issues by the Bank of England in the follow denominations, etc.

The Scottish Courts said “we’ll accept money, or whatever we deem is acceptable to repay a debt we’ve issued” - so the legal tender definition doesn’t even mean anything in Scotland.

Keep in mind, legal tender is really specific, so if you try to dick around and pay a £1000 fine in 2p coins - it will be rejected as that is not legal tender. You can only supply certain coins up to certain amounts.

But anyway, Scottish money, or Northern Irish money is valued exactly the same as BoE issued money.

A shopkeeper being unfamiliar is fine, they should be cautious. But until they do interact with it, they’re always going to be unfamiliar.

But, this is most likely to get worse as cash becomes less common anyway.

When they renamed 23c to 23ai I cringed so hard. You don’t install the DB and get an AI, you get an empty DB that has vectors.

And enabling employees to use AI more than the free tier is really expensive too.

The cost is upfront for training the LLM, then they have to sell the end product to us (to recuperate costs, start training the next 500B model, etc.), so giving their employees access to a higher tier of LLM is relatively minimal cost, inference isn’t exactly cheap, but I think they could afford to give their employees access to higher models.

But, this is Oracle I guess.

I’m in the UK, we have different siren sounds than the US - and I still do this when I hear a siren on a song by a US band or artist.

Seeing a jar of Grey Poupon and saying “Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?” and I had to ask if anyone had seen the film when no reaction and they said, no.
