Well, not really. The cosmic microwave background radiation was a tiny fraction of that noise. What everyone saw was mostly thermal noise generated by the amplifier circuit inside the TV.

We’re in the one where Biff takes the Almanac back to the past.

I have a UFO Civic and, out of all the cars I’ve been in, it has hands down the best dashboard. Everything is tactile and arranged in a way that I don’t have to look away from the road to adjust anything.

Beyond tactile vs. touchscreen, I wish more manufacturers payed attention to ergonomics so I wouldn’t have to reach into my ass to find the AC or the defogging button.

No, most people just give up after seeing the price.

Fun little piece of trivia: Originally, nimrod used to mean “skillful hunter” (after Nimrod, the biblical figure) but then in 1940 Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd a “poor little nimrod", and kids of the time not knowing the reference, simply assumed it was an insult on Elmer’s character.

And that’s how a cartoon rabbit single handedly changed the meaning of a word.

We have 3 Stratasys printers at work and yeah, you’re absolutely correct.

To add, their ‘professional’ slicer program “Insight” is the most user hostile piece of software I’ve ever laid my eyes on. Straight out of 1992 levels of awful. The workflow, the UI (if you can call it that), everything.

The other ‘user friendly’ slicer is “GrabCAD Print”, an Apple style piece of garbage. It lacks everything beyond basic functionality, yet lately they’ve been pumping it full of subscription locked features.

Honestly, fuck this company.

Never had problem thawing store bought bread before.

You have to put the bread in an airtight bag before freezing and let it completely thaw out in the bag before opening. This way the total moisture content within the bag will remain the same.

Cool story, but that site. Holy shit.

The absolute state of webdesign in 2024.

I lived in both. Maybe I have more of an insight than you…

That’s literally every system.
Yes, communism too. Especially communism.

It never went away.
I can still hear incoming calls, texts, and tower pings with my headphones.

Synthetic taurine is everywhere, just search Amazon. It’s sold alongside vitamins.

I was walking alone in an empty street during NYE when a random girl, who happened to come by, spread her arms and blocked my way in a playful manner.

She only let me pass once I cracked a smile.
It’s been well over a decade, but I still remember her face.

It was the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.

You’d probably have to keep tuning as the weight of the spool decreases.
Its more practical to print a spool holder with bearings for it. Thingyverse has some good ones

Yes, some of us got this email on Monday.
Pretty sure most old and/or active accounts received this regardless of being mods, though.

Cool, you managed to get it working after all. I never used Power Shell before this either.
It’s ridiculous the average user has to jump through all these hoops just to regain control of their own data.

That’s strange. It took me a while to figure out as well, but then worked non-stop for an entire day.

This is what I ran:

C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\shreddit-windows.exe --username blah --password blah --client-id blah --client-secret blah --gdpr-export-dir C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\export_blah_20240225

It’s possible reddit is rate limiting you, or the program loses access to the gdpr folder it’s pulling the links from (antivirus?). You could try running it from a different path or on a different pc.
I ran the .exe from the same “reddit-data” folder that contained the gdpr files just to be safe with folder permissions and stuff.

Besides, what the guy is yapping about it is 80% a robotics problem not an AI problem. It’s apples and oranges.

He’s essentially saying why can Will Smith finally eat pasta normally while we still don’t have the robotic workforce from the 2001 Will Smith movie “I, Robot”.

update: turns out PowerDeleteSuite and others can only delete your 1000 most recent comments (a limit set by reddit), but I found something that actually works and does a thorough job.

There are step-by-step instructions on the page.
I’m running the program in PowerShell with the GDPR option, and it’s been nicely chugging away for hours now.

Same. It’s 12 years for me.

Anyway, here’s to wasting another 13 years in the fediverse! 🍺
