i gotta say, taking Alexander Skarsgård (Eric from True Blood) as lead actor in Murderbot, is the most genius casting choice i’ve seen in a while

Do I have any Glasgow friends free on Saturday who want to try out a photo scavenger hunt around the city centre? It's a bit rough and I have probably miscalibrated the difficulty. I have not done a thing like this before and this is kind of a playtest.

Game Rules
Objective
The object of the game is, as part of a team, to find and replicate photographs which were taken around Glasgow, in a limited space of time.
Play zone
The play zone is a quadrilateral drawn between the center of George Square, the midpoint in the river between the South Portland Street Suspension Bridge and the Victoria Bridge, the Tidal Weir at Glasgow Green, and High Street train station, marked in red and labelled with a bird. (An image illustrates this. The red silhouette of a small perching bird marks the middle of the region.)
Goal photographs
Each player will receive the same sheet of 36 photographs at the start of the day. All the photographs were taken somewhere in the play zone.

(The goal photographs paragraph is illustrated with an example sheet. A six by six grid of square photos uses the letters G through L and 7 through 12. It is marked prominently with the text "EXAMPLE".)
Teams
Players may form teams of any size.
Mascots
Every team will be given a soft toy as a mascot. You may bring your own. Your team may only have one mascot. Mascots will receive participation ribbons.
Taking photographs
You must try to recreate as many of the goal photographs as you can, with your team mascot in frame, wearing its ribbon. You must match the framing of the photographs, including the same major background or foreground elements, such as buildings, statues or street signs. Your mascot does not need to be in focus.
Navigation and exploration
You may use Google Maps or an equivalent service for search and navigation. You may not click into the "photos" tab or scroll to view photos beyond those that first appear on screen when viewing a search result.
You may not use Street View or any equivalent service.

A map of Glasgow city centre from OpenStreetMap. It has been overlaid with four coloured quadrants: yellow with a bell centred around Sauchiehall Street, green with a tree around the Strathclyde and City College campuses, red with a bird around the merchant city, and blue with a fish around central station.

The fix is to disable the Apple Stupidity daemons with launchctl (exercise left to the reader, no not really… see Alt-text for c&p content ;P ).

UID=$(id -u)

# Disable system-wide AI search components (may require sudo)
sudo launchctl disable system/com.apple.contextstored
sudo launchctl disable system/com.apple.modelmanagerd

# Stop the running hybridsearchd process immediately
sudo launchctl bootout gui/$UID/com.apple.hybridsearchd 2>/dev/null || true
sudo pkill -9 hybridsearchd 2>/dev/null || true

anyway one cool thing you can (could?) do on openai is use poisoned LLM context to XSS the webpage. That was fun. No bounty for that either. That's probably still possible but since I'm not getting paid... 🤷🏻‍♀️

for two months, I've been flying drones over Flock cameras to situation them in space and geography; I even got my commercial drone license in order to do it. I'd like to share this project with you all: it's called Records Of Enemy Surveillance: recordsofenemysurveillance.com

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

Oh, we found where the VERY HARD puzzles live.

The level select screen from Point Blank, saying "Shoot to select!" and presenting a choice of four games, except all the games shown are screenshots from Big Walk. Three are promotional screenshots from the press-kit: colourful stick figures climbing on each others' shoulders to reach a crane, holding up cards with symbols on them behind soundproof glass, and sitting on the walkway into a shrek-coloured cylindrical house on stilts. The fourth, however, is on fire, covered in the text "VERY HARD" and shows a bunch of the stick figures sleeping in a room with a purple doll in a vice. Also on screen are three hearts for lives, a countdown timer at "5", a blue button saying "Try playing against your opponent!" and "CREDIT 1" in green. The background shows a blue sky and a blue-green sea.
