decades of extant automation built around excel

i have seen some of these. it all needs to burn. (and then be replaced by 3 python scripts and a csv file. )

Plenty of examples of landlords being assholes and procrastinating or outright refusing to repair essential things

happened to me a couple years ago. The solution was a friendly-worded letter, notifying them that we will not pay any rent until the thing is fixed, and informing them about related court decisions. (this was in germany, your laws may differ)

if you include the sentence before, it paints a very different picture

… a rigorous campaign to ensure their system can be built without any dependencies containing LLM-generated code. This was not a simple configuration change but a manual, labor-intensive purge.

to add insult to injure, here is AI deep research on the topic: https://assistant.kagi.com/share/8abb2344-892f-442b-9c63-09b6e72dbbab

you could make a custom font with ligatures, that just replaces words and sentences with other words when rendering, and then embedd that custom font in each pdf file.

e.g. make a ligature for the word “gnome”, so that it looks like “cell”, and then use “gnome” everywhere in the text, where a user should see the word “cell”.

edit: someone embedded doom in a true type font: https://4rh1t3ct0r7.github.io/ttf-doom/

because 90% of content since 2023 is generated with LLM, it becomes unusable for training. Thus AI companies usually focus on content released before 2023, which has already been scraped. That being said…

Czech-language biology/social sciences knowledge corpus

there is a good chance the “The Pile” doesnt already contain this, while being highly relevant for training, So poisoning it becomes extra relevant

“stand-alone complex”, the GITS spinoff series

look on nyaa

commie subs release for GITS2026

When the world needed him most…He returned

season2 with 25ep might be enough to finish the story

but… you can do all these things, if you want to.

try giving it the blowtorch as a warning for a couple seconds. that usually scares the screw enough to come loose via normal wrench.

At least Switzerland and Germany is nowhere NEAR the same level of citizens being armed as in the US.

Switzerland kinda is though. They usually don’t have ammo though

quote from spoiler

a real sense of someplace “alien"

Yes. so much this!

Scavengers Reign

I liked the character writing, and I liked many of the scifi parts, but i was missing the “hard scifi” that the plot should revolve around in a scifi story. i.e. the futuristic stuff doesn’t affect the story much and the character arcs would have worked just as well in 17th century exploration story. Compare that to hard scifi like “the expanse” or “westworld”, where many parts of the story can only work because of the specific way the world works.

if you prefer soft scifi over hard sci, than Scavengers Reign is a strong recommendation.

this. it’s not that hard to make a coffee that is both strong and tastes good.

“das kann ich leider nicht. Die webseite war defekt. Könnten Sie mir das Formular vielleicht ausdrucken”

würde das klappen?

vorort geht nicht?

wtf? dass telefon ignoriert wird, und email nicht existiert, dass kennt man ja. Aber dass man vorort keinen Termin bekommt, das ist neu.

is there context to this (like napoleon having a pet gator or something like that), or would it just be a funny idea?

“3,5 thousand” seems common in spoken language, but not in writing, afaik. I don’t know how common it is in english (and dialects), but in german it is.

yes. there is virtually no romance in this show. I mean yuri more in the general sense of “girl having good chemistry and interacting with each other”. When I say “people who like yuri”, i mean it like “people who like animes with cute girls interacting with each other”.

the yaoi comes later :D (again, virtually no romance, just like with the yuri)
