I’m surprised nobody mentioned jack plugs yet. Basically unchanged since 1877 when it was invented for phone switchboards, roughly as old as safety pins or modern hairpins (give or take a few decades)

For the uninitiated, Ikarus was a Hungarian bus factory that produced buses to the Eastern block, some of those are probably still running somewhere in Mongolia. The Ikarus 256 was produced between 1974-2002, so in the best case that thing was at least 23 years old.

But even better, someone got to travel on an Ikarus 55 on the same day (1954-1974), which used to be great in their time, but definitely weren’t made for 36C summers, the lack of air conditioning combined with the sunshine roof that used to increase the feel of comfort in 1958 created a living hell for the passengers packed into that rolling museum with barely openable windows.

I had to read the post twice, is the arrow keys the life hack? zu the fold, }} two paragraph and 3) to jump three sentences is. And we haven’t mentioned macros yet

For me it kinda went the other way, I’m almost convinced that human intelligence is the same pattern repeating, just more general (yet)

I guessed so, but what’s the context?

Umm… What are we seeing in the picture?

Indeed!

I did it very carefully. I was in Austria, and there’s a non zero chance there could be legal issues

The building style?

For legal reasons, before letting you watch a guy pounding his stepsister stuck in the washing machine, we have to ask you to select your favorite Dexter’s lab episode.

I am afraid to ask, but… wine carton?

What about Steam?

Most banks these days need their app as well to log in to their website because of forced two factor authentication

No, you have it the other way round. You say ‘biang’, and write its character for five minutes

These days feel like an ‘Are we the baddies?’ moment for the US

Kile used to be great, probably still is

Was going to say that. They to go through the digestive track, so it needs a day or so to work. The toxin of amanita is heat resistant so you can make a stew of it, and when the first symptoms show up your liver is probably already beyond repair. If you want it to be more interesting, there are some species that are poisonous only with alcohol, like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprinopsis_atramentaria , although the symptoms are less severe as in death cap, but maybe it’s not unimaginable to give a hearty stew a day before a known heavyweight drinking run to kill the dude(ette).

I see how that is a hype train, and I also work with machine learning (though I’m far from an expert), but I’m not convinced these things are not getting intelligent. I know what their problems are, but I’m not sure whether the human brain works the same way, just (yet) more effective.

That is, we have visual information, and some evolutionary BIOS, while LLMs have to read the whole internet and use a power plant to function - but what if our brains are just the same bullshit generators, we are just unaware of it?

That was a very long time ago, that’s fine now
