These @Waymo self-driving cars are getting scarily similar to humans—they can even inch forward into the crosswalk at a red light like a complete fucking douchebag.

"Belgen pendelen gemiddeld 39 kilometer en 53 minuten per dag, en zijn daarmee Europees kampioen. Dat blijkt uit een bevraging van HR-bedrijf SD Worx bij 18.000 pendelaars in 18 Europese landen. Voor zo'n klein land te zijn, leggen we dus dagelijks een grote afstand af."
Wat het artikel niet vermeld, is de ruimtelijke ordening. En dan heb je ook nog eens het feit dat de gemiddelde Belg ook nog eens in een veel te groot huis woont in "het groen" ver weg van openbare voorzieningen waardoor ze vaker de auto nemen. Samen met het feit dat veel bedrijven hun thuiswerkregeling (fors) teruggeschroefd hebben.

Warning. Do not drink and listen to this. Just don't. You have been actually warned.
What happens when @jakobrosin suggests trying #ElevenLabs Speech to Speech on music, and then mixing the music back in afterward? Well, a lot of stupid, stupid things. I did this with the Wii's Mii channel, and with Martin Jarvis who reads Just William stories as the speaker? If you could call it that. Some very very silly noises are to be found within.
@matrix, sooooo looking forward to the day when I, using Element Web 👨💻, will be able to call someone using the Element X app 📱. The day I won't need/use Signal anymore.
"The printk bits required for PREEMPT_RT are sitting in linux-next. This was the last known roadblock for PREEMPT_RT. The RT queue has additionally the "atomic console" for the 8250 UART which is not yet in linux-next.[…]"
Summer 2024 was the hottest on record both globally and for Europe according to #CopernicusClimate data
🌡️ During the past three months of 2024, the globe has experienced the hottest June and August, the hottest day on record, and the hottest boreal summer on record
🌡️ It is increasingly likely that 2024 will be the warmest year on record
"increasingly likely that 2024 will be the warmest year on record" – but only for about 365 days I'm afraid. Wasn't 2023 the hottest already? And 2022 before that? 😢
It is a quite positive outlook and promising future despite the very rough path so far.
Happy to be able to publicly talk about job and work related things again. I want to write a big personal post soon, but let me finish the home preparations first.
I'm thinking of creating a list of people who are willing/would be happy to beta CN-EN fan translations and pinning it somewhere on the cnovels comm. Would you be interested?
Let me know! I am just going to compile usernames, contact information (e.g., email), if you want to provide sample/link to past work (up to you!), and your conditions (anything at all, e.g., will only beta modern setting stuff).
I couldn't bring myself to get rid of these friendship bracelets while Rosemary and Lana were still alive, and suddenly I'm tearing up after seeing this in the household inventory 😭
Earlier this week, #SpaceX launched it's 7,001st Starlink satellite! 🤯 Now, some are retired or failed, and so Jonathan MacDowell's stats say that there are currently 6,396 Starlink sats in orbit. Regardless, that is a HUGE number of satellites!
And they just launched 21 more Starlink sats yesterday!
Amazing to see how launch technology has evolved over these years.

the only credibility I can give the fud is that Qualcomm themselves had shown off these laptops with gaming prowess but compatibility / emulation proved later to be a bigger hit in real world scenarios. The article's points about enterprise use and longer battery life than gaming laptops is still valid, though, and how gaming is still not front-and-center in their marketing.
