  • Microsoft 365 sees 43% price hike thanks to Copilot — existing customers safe until renewal

  • They did exactly that, except they changed the name of the original subscription to "classic" and upgraded everyone to the more expensive plan without asking.

    This is actually illegal in some countries, and I hope they get fined for it.

  • Thanks Jaden

  • What have you created that you really want to show off?

    Jump

  • I bought a cheap white led strip from AliExpress to make an edge light around the bathroom mirror. A few cuts, a bit of soldering, and I made some discrete corners pieces with my 3D printer. Double sided tape for a semi permanent install.

    So simple, but the results are great. It's ZigBee as well so I can add it to the smart home if a need arises.

  • Before Squid Game, there was Battle Royale

  • I preferred Alice in Borderland more than squid game.

  • I don't think people are yearning for a dystopian future.

  • I think all of those applications will, or already have, develop independently of something like Facebook metaverse. If anything meta is taking those useful applications and trying to turn it into a household product that nobody needs.

  • I hate cast iron so I am in favour of this.

  • That just gets me excited to start a fresh new seasoning. Starting from bare metal is a good feeling

  • What is your favourite episode of a TV show, and why?

    Jump

  • A Dark Quiet Death from Mythic Quest.

    Nearly totally removed from the rest of the show, it's about relationships, sacrifice, integrity, compromise. For a comedy show about video games, this episode hit hard and made me reflect on past relationships and really broke me down. A reminder to take responsibility of your actions when you feel like the blame is external.

    Then there's a very brief end scene that puts it in context with the regular cast.

    This episode should have won an award.

  • Don't reply "just Google it"

    Jump

  • I'm not kidding, one time I saw that and the first result was back to that thread where the only answer was to Google it.

  • The GPT Era Is Already Ending

  • The quote is misquoting the analogy. It is an infinite number of monkeys.

    The point of the analogy is about randomness and infinity. Any page of gibberish is equally as likely as a word perfect page of Shakespeare given equal weighting to the entry if characters. There are factors introduced with the behaviours of monkeys and placement of keys, but I don't think that is the point of the analogy.

  • Please quit with this tax write off misinformation.

    They cut their losses. We don't know the details why, but for some reason they decided it would cost too much in money or reputation to continue with marketing and release.

    Not everything is a billionaire conspiracy. Sometimes they just realise they made a film too shit to release, or some person in a suit just wanted to spite someone.

  • Why wasn't RSS as popular as the original Twitter?

    I'm not sure what the answer is, but I suspect it's the same answer.

  • I thought it was a great idea for official statements. Kind of like a new type of RSS feed.

    Local transport companies can advertise delays, meteorology organisations can advertise natural disasters, police can post active missing person alerts, etc.

    But it seems like it is just vapid narcissists thinking other people give a shit about their random thoughts.

  • What do mean regarding terrible names? "Moth" isn't inherently a bad name; any negative connotations of the word come from the creature itself.
