bazmd said Them cyclists are always complaining about their phones! lol,@donkulator And don't trust the Chickens, you just know they're up to something...,@CoreFusionX The limits can usually be switched off in the battery power usage settings, I didn't want to be a smart ass and point it out after such a good rant lol,@retoor I'm the same, very HI-TEC but low-key on my own phone. I usually install apps manually if I need it, there are apps I've seen people use for the light feature that have ads, that's absolutely insane to me lol one of the Easiest apps you can build, I wonder if anyone has ever paid for a torch app?,@Tounai Very few people would use a screen narrator, it would be more viable to develop a specialist device for disabled people and that should be developed by large companies, let them pull their weight for awhile. instead of trying to be tyrants. What do you mean by "enforced by the EU"?,Forgot there was a down vote button, there's nothing really worth using it for and I wouldn't be bothered with childish button behaviour. Sometimes I hit like, sometimes I don't. I really sleep well at night! :D,@netikras Everyone must do a great job down voting the spam bots, because by the time I get here they're gone. But I'll keep that in mind. Who you gonna call? SPAMBUSTERS!!,I've read through it. They should probably stop with all this crazy regulatory nonsense before other European countries leave the union lol Exceptions: "If meeting the EAA requirements would impose a “disproportionate burden” on a business, and if it can demonstrate that compliance is not reasonably possible, an exception may apply. Additionally, microenterprises are exempt from these requirements." Source:businessdisabilityforum.org.uk,It's teenagers and "know it all" student types that cause the majority of trouble online because they're stupid assholes. lol It would take a lot to actually hit someone in person, Social media always causes a lot of trouble because of mixed company where you have different social structures and relationships with people in one place, for example; your drinking buddies and good friends you grew up with, will perceive you differently than your professional colleagues and people who look up to you. trouble usually breaks out over something trivial like a "throw away" comment to one person picked up by another and inflated by algorithms. Close friends and family can be very protective too and that can cause trouble. Social media sites, know this and they love it, drama 24/7 drives traffic. Ultimately, online toxicity is designed and controlled by Social media sites.,Basically, they're selling a processor not a laptop?,Busy weekend but hopefully some drinks tonight, favorite planet is Omicron Perci 8, that's where the ruler Lrrr lives.,You guys take showers and use products? lol,Couldn't stand reddit or tumbler for more than a few weeks, it's pointless investing time on sites like that.,I heard that you could be suspended on twitter for pretending to be a bot, that's true. also when it was said that your account won't be suspended for a joke on X I tested this out, which turned out to be false, you will get suspended for a joke. Just look at south parks account, they're taking no chances lol,@Demolishun I never talk politics, sometimes issues come up that look like a scientific conversion, but end up being political bs, when you correct them they'll get very defensive and unreasonable. And I'm like, oh you're a fucking idiot! lol Suspended...,@Grumm When I hear of people like that, I always wish I had a basement, burying people out in an empty field is getting too risky these days.,You nearly guessed my password.,@antigermgerm If you weren't funny, and I had a basement, it would be overcrowded. lol,tosensei is correct, never delete, hope there was a backup or something to retrieve?,@Demolishun I used to arrive at work and get hit on all night, sometimes aggressively, it becomes annoying, but then I remember to be nice. Stalkers are just overly obsessive friends. lol,@Demolishun I live in the occupied 6 counties of Northern Ireland (occupied by the British) and we use miles up north and kilometres down south, everyone can tell the difference, most automobiles have both kph and mph on the speedometer, it's not like we have to change cars at some fantasy border. lol,@Demolishun But I agree, some of our beloved people are a bit short of a few miles.,@Demolishun I couldn't do that on someone, they would see right through me. But that's brilliant thinking haha.,@antigermgerm I can see it as "a rate" but it has lost value over the years, maybe professional outlets have a better rate but I'm talking about local bars that have the same machines for as long as I can remember.,@retoor What's this?,@retoor I actually watched the whole video, it's absolute horse shit, there was a point when they brought up "global warming" and I'm thinking, for fuck sake! There was a lot of facts thrown in. Entertaining. It was wonderful, boo! :D,@antigermgerm I know, the point is, you can feed ten quid into a machine and it will play like it's 1989. A poker is 4 quid, with a hi-lo gamble which you will lose, a royal flush is 15 quid, which is three pints. If you get a poker it should at least be 30 quid. Or maybe it's a good thing and people stop gambling on machines.,@retoor Not slot machines, there are actual poker machines. Fruit machines are easy to break if you know how to play them, but they're still taking in more than they give out.,@retoor I think a royal flush here is 15 quid today and it was the same 20 years ago, maybe I'm wrong but it seems like a huge difference.,@retoor 20 years ago if you won 15 quid on a poker machine, it may have been worth playing, not today though. £15 will get you 3 pints today, 20 years ago it would have got you 8-10 pints.,@Root Well, that escalated quickly. lol,@Demolishun Check that your battery isn't running hot, I had a windows 10 phone that would run hot with whatever the apps were doing in the background, I think it was a facebook app. But the heat from a battery would give a sharp pain, also if there is any bare metal like a screw exposed you might get a small static discharge with the friction from your clothes.,@retoor I'd be happy if I switched it on and it didn't waste 20-30 minutes waiting for it to update, this usually happens when I have about 30 minutes to spare. Crazy!,@Demolishun There was never any nuclear explosion on the moon, but there are articles about "top secret" plans to detonate a nuclear device in the 1950's, crazy cold war ideas perhaps. The moon does ring like a bell though, it refers to the duration of shallow moon quakes, and at the Moon's center is a dense planetary, metallic core.,Some day someone might capture footage of an unidentified flying object that will turn out to be an xbox that I've thrown off a cliff...,@retoor The word "soap" made just as much sense to me lol,@retoor I understand, I've watched a lot of those videos out of curiosity too. I've studied astronomy since I was a teenager, I've even wrote astronomy software, I enjoy the subject ;),@retoor One program I wrote was to load up the coordinates of stars in an xyz environment to view their distance relative to other stars, for example I could plot the stars in the constellation Orion and rotate the entire constellation with a mouse and view where the stars actually are from any angle. I could also save each constellation and load them up together, I manually converted thousands of stars for the project.,@Demolishun I use Redshift, it can plot planets, moons and everything else for at least 12000 years, I've used an original copy since the 1990's and it has always been extremely accurate. You can even use it to plot new objects like comets or satellites and it will track them in real time, just type in the orbital elements. pretty amazing stuff...,@retoor Stars are plotted from earth in celestial coordinates (Right Ascension and Declination) I manually converted this with an extra dimension [distance] like Cartesian coordinates, basically xy into xyz, -x -y -z I also added t [time] for auto rotation, so ended up with 7 0,0,0 -0,-0,-0 and t.,@retoor The idea was to view a constellation of stars from any angle, the program got very complex lol,@retoor Celestial Coordinates.,Backward compatible hardware support is always difficult to get right. That's the main issue with lighter operating systems.,@magicMirror Dos 5-6 was about 8 floppy disks. You had to install first before windows 3, which was another 8-10 floppies. And it took ages to install .,Personalty bots are the best, when I wrote them, they had attitude, I bet you're trying to get it to continue a "line of thought" you had.,@retoor That's a pretty good result, engaging! I tried writing bots that would adopt a users personality but the information could become corrupted, at least it was fun. lots of permutations to create, try, test and adjust.,@retoor The bots I wrote were mostly low level standalone, they had built in arrays of normal's (like basic information) that were hardwired, also there was a string parser and NLP, a lot of outputs and inputs, I'm not describing this well, I'm in a rush lol,@retoor I've seen different versions of windows 3.1 (which was named because pi is 3.141) anyway yes, windows could be installed with about 6 floppies, but that's with Dos already installed, the standard packs I remember had at least 10 floppies "diskettes" per pack. I remember them from college looking like packs of cream crackers lol,@retoor You're "training" a bot, if you're writing a bot, you'll have to hard wire an array of normal physics, the opposite of [up] is [down] to us, describing up or down in a sentence a bot will have to understand what the context is, if someone says "up - where I live" a bot gathering information needs to produce every possible scenario about "up" including what the opposite of up is, if you build an array and some tools for the bot to use, it works nicely, hardwired arrays can be switched off, these are low level bots and they tend to develop vast matrices, so be verwy verwy careful...,Work time on what planet? Some of us are not working from home ;) Observations are more important than statistics and Interpretations can be misleading. Have fun.,@retoor What can a computer do? The possibilities are endless, Artificial Intelligence research today, is at least 30 years behind. Have I mentioned that I built an R2D2 droid? I built 3 but two were cardboard paper templates lol,@retoor Data->observation. Have fun.,@retoor I have witnesses lol,...,@jestdotty I would never say no to you! I would be too afraid. lol,@retoor Hahaha,It's times like this, I wish I had a photo of the worlds most tiniest violin.,I am "impossible". I like that. I don't ignore anyone.,@Demolishun You're welcome ;),//Fix this crap later.,@We3D Saving humanity one up vote at a time.,This joke came up for peer review and the comically adverse comity group found that this is derivative, of the works of the late George Carlin. lol,@electrineer Bots can be written to engage with organic activity? someone should let big tech companies know about this. For fucks sake! lol,++ to mess with @retoor 's data is NOT cool! STOP IT! lol,No disassemble!,Some tools feel clunky.,@Demolishun I was measuring in Deapool kills per film like body count, but some people don't understand how to measure stuff, I guess lol,Obviously a satirical post!,@kiki I thought this was a fun site to share cooking tips?,Port forwarding for security companies. That's a position where you escort people to a boat and wave them goodbye ;),@Demolishun Nice plates!,@retoor Doctor feel good? lol,@Wisecrack Is that like a Breaking Bad reference? lol,Has to be done, documentation is important.,@12bitfloat You probably have one of those fancy new IPv6 addresses I've heard about. Show off! lol,I do, mostly security work and robotics, I've a background in electrical and electronic engineering.,I caught some of that, "I don't do jokes" Then why did I enjoy it humorously so? Explain that to me, no wait, it's you! lol,That's a chair meet Window situation. lol,Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm a schizophrenic and so am I.,@12bitfloat Got it, drink water. Your cool!,Use a good solid heavy chair, none of that patio furniture or stunt man prop stuff. :P```
