  • I played the demo on Steam yesterday, and had a lot of fun with it. I really look forward to seeing what they come up with in the full release.

    I'm so happy that it's getting more normal for studios to release free demos. I've been playing a lot of hours of Aloft too, and I gotta say, it really makes me more interested in buying the game when it comes out, than I otherwise would be.

  • I built the first 100% private, on-device "For You" feed on the fediverse
  • You're an absolute champ! Wishing you all the best with this project going forward, and I look forward to using it more :)

  • What a super cool idea, and I love the implementation! I do however keep accidentally downvoting, when I want to upvote, and vice versa, since all other sites that I've ever used, display the upvote first, and the downvote second. Any chance of a toggle for that in settings?

    A must-have feature for me is the ability to collapse comments on posts. Right now it seems like we can only collapse replies to comments, or put differently, we can only collapse child-comments. Any chance you could make it possible to collapse parent comments too?

  • I was curious too, so I went to the Wikipedia page:

    The goal is to attain liberation in the body, by sealing in the energy of bindu in the head so that it is not lost.

    Haṭha yoga is a branch of the largely spiritual practice of yoga, though it makes use of physical techniques; it was developed in medieval times, much later than the meditative and devotional forms of yoga. Its goals however are similar: siddhis or magical powers, and mukti, liberation. In Haṭha yoga, liberation was often supposed to be attainable in the body, made immortal through the practices of Haṭha yoga. Among its techniques were mudrās, meant to seal in or control energies such as kundalini and bindu. Khecarī mudrā is one such technique.

    tl;dr - A spiritual practice of yoga in Hindu metaphysics.

  • tbf, it seems like his relationship with animals was really hit or miss:

    Diodorus Siculus recorded a story of Menes related by the priests of the crocodile god Sobek at Crocodilopolis, in which the pharaoh Menes, attacked by his own dogs while out hunting fled across Lake Moeris on the back of a crocodile and, in thanks, founded the city of Crocodilopolis.

    Giveaway! Win your Steam Copy of the 'Captain’s Edition' of Star Trek: Resurgence!
  • I would be very excited to explore the in-game locations. Hopefully feel really immersed in the universe! And as /u/AlolanYoda@mander.xyz mentioned, I hope it will be possible to solve conflicts through diplomacy. That has always been Star Trek's biggest draw for me, that it isn't just about combat and fighting.

  • I still don't get buffers
  • The Clipboard History is indeed a part of Windows 10. But I was wondering how PowerToys enhanced the functionality of it.

  • I still don't get buffers
  • I took a look through my power toys settings, but couldn't find anything there that had to do with the win+v clipboard history. Google hasn't been any help either. What is it that I'm overlooking? How does powertoys improve the clipboard history feature?

  • Found this great deal on a new chair for my living room. Almost 50% off!
  • Yeah, they look like they're upside down, what the hell. lmao

  • How do you keep track of your medicine?
  • Don't know if you're looking for desktop software specifically, but back in the day I used Medisafe on my phone, and that would definitely be my first port of call, if I had to start keeping track of that stuff again.

  • Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life?
  • I really loved Interview with the Vampire, so I was very excited for Mayfair Witches. But wow, those two are very different shows in tone, pacing and dialogue. It was very hard for me to get through Mayfair Witches, and I only finished it, hoping I'd end up liking it in the end. But I won't be tuning back in for season 2, that's for sure.

    To be fair, I've never read the books. I have only ever read the Vampire Chronicles. So it may just be that I wouldn't care for the books either.

    However, in the spirit of this thread - I do want to check out the source material, Lives of the Mayfair Witches at some point. Could be that I'd enjoy it, even if I didn't like the show.

  • Do you know who you are ruling to
  • I can't find the source of this image with the exact same text, but this (Twitter link) looks to be the artist,

  • When people tell you who they are...
  • Wow, I had no idea! I gotta look into those too. Thanks for the head's up!

  • When people tell you who they are...
  • Oh, man, this really makes me want to re-read the entire series again.

    I've recently gotten into audiobooks for the first time in my life. I wonder if there's a quality production of His Dark Materials.

  • ‘John Wick’ & ‘Twilight’ TV Series To Be Shopped By Lionsgate Television
  • Get ready for this winter's new gloomy CW show - John Wick as an emo teen vampire.

  • There is no point in trying to escape the simulation; Odds are, we don't exist outside it!
  • This sounds really interesting! Can you post an imdb link? I'm only able to find an American show by that name, and it also has technology themes, so it's making it hard to find anything else.

    EDIT: Oh! It is this show, I just misunderstood your reply to ApathyTree, about it only being legally available in Australia and New Zealand. Thanks for the recommendation :)

  • Inside the shifting plan at Elon Musk’s X to build a new team and police a platform ‘so toxic it’s almost unrecognizable’
  • I'm going off of the article, where they state that it's an LLM. It's the paragraph right before the one I originally posted:

    According to the former X insider, the company has experimented with AI moderation. And Musk’s latest push into artificial intelligence technology through X.AI, a one-year old startup that’s developed its own large language model, could provide a valuable resource for the team of human moderators.

    EDIT: I will include it in the original comment for clarity, for those who don't read the article.

  • Inside the shifting plan at Elon Musk’s X to build a new team and police a platform ‘so toxic it’s almost unrecognizable’
  • mirror: https://archive.vn/ghN0z

    According to the former X insider, the company has experimented with AI moderation. And Musk’s latest push into artificial intelligence technology through X.AI, a one-year old startup that’s developed its own large language model, could provide a valuable resource for the team of human moderators.

    An AI system “can tell you in about roughly three seconds for each of those tweets, whether they’re in policy or out of policy, and by the way, they’re at the accuracy levels about 98% whereas with human moderators, no company has better accuracy level than like 65%,” the source said. “You kind of want to see at the same time in parallel what you can do with AI versus just humans and so I think they’re gonna see what that right balance is.”

    I don't believe that for one second. I'd believe it, if those numbers were reversed, but anyone who uses LLMs regularly, knows how easy it is to circumvent them.

    EDIT: Added the paragraph right before the one I originally posted alone, that specifies that their "AI system" is an LLM.

  • I got less than 2 hours of sleep and I'm having a terruleble day at work
  • That sounds absolutely amazing. Especially this:

    just the right kind of cold where my fingers don't get numb, and my face gets and stays chilly the whole time.

    You put that into words so well. I love that sensation. And the cool, fresh air, when you take a deep breath.
