No.

Yes!

I can’t remember who, but Somebody once told me, “The years start coming and they don’t stop coming.”

Yeah, I remember checking out Gab / Dissent a while back, because I’m against censorship. All of the comments were just racist, sexist, anti-LGBTQIA+. No rhyme or reason, just hundreds or thousands of crazy people screaming into the void.

I’m fine with people calling piracy theft, if it means they’ll pirate more.

I just hope I can buy a graphics card without having to sell organs some time in the next two years.

Some of us like our blood to be seasoned!

Sodium is not a salt.

Bought salt flakes, received salt powder.

Also depends on how that LD50 was measured. Oral lethal dose is a lot higher than intravenous.

Fun fact: KCl is used in lethal injections to stop the heart.

Were you trying to tie them as you typed that sentence?

“I’m New Clippy. I’m here to help you, like it or not!”

Two gigs in the same weekend? Who’s going to keep an eye on the smoker?!

Most of my passwords are based around strings of characters that are comfortable to type, then committing them to muscle memory. There’s a few downsides to this:

• If I need to log in to something on mobile and don’t have a proper keyboard with me, it’s tough to remember which symbols I’ve used

• I share some of my logins with friends and family for certain things, if they call and need to re-enter a password, it’s usually impossible to recite it to them over the phone (most of my shared logins have reverted back to proper words and numbers to make it easier for the others)

• If I lose an arm, I’ll probably have to reset all of my passwords.

But yeah, words alone provide plenty of possibilities. There’s a reason cryptocurrency wallets use them for seed phrases.

From the Australian fair work ombudsmen:

When overpayments occur, the employer and employee should discuss and agree on a repayment arrangement.

If the employee agrees to repay the money, a written agreement should be made which sets out the:

• reason for the overpayment

• amount of money overpaid

• way repayments will be made (for example, cash, cheque or electronic transfer) and how often (this has to be reasonable).

Granted, this is generally for overpayment of wages and not specific to redundancy pay. There may be clauses in their contracts with varying terms that allow them to reclaim, but I’m just some dude on the internet.

The i says otherwise.

Scraping through a website at the scale they are talking about isn’t really viable. You need access to the API so that you can have very targeted requests.

This is why reddit changed their API pricing and screwed over everyone using third party apps. They can make more money selling access to LLM trainers than they could from having millions of people using apps that rely on the API.

My money is on them being re-enabled after every update.
