I just realized when you click on the Jukebox in Mama Paca's it actually changes the ambient music. It only cycles between two, I think, but I was tickled. And yes, I'm replaying a demo. I needed to see the Shirren Operative, you see... 🐛 #Starfinder #Afterlight

"Hard-coded credentials" means the security checks for the cameras are fixed. They don't change. If you have the credentials, you have access to Flock and without a massive overhaul you will always have access to Flock. And those credentials leaked.

When was the last time you deliberately bought something because of an ad you saw? So much of our existence now is so deluged with advertising, I wonder if the effectiveness isn't greatly diminished because of the saturation... 1/2

Wouldn't do that to Hawaii, as those islands seem a bit fragile to host data centers, but fr. If you just gotta have Slop Machine Centers, build em on your own neighborhood.

Japanese rant: So, the kanji for book is 本。 But for counting books, the counter is 冊。 本 IS a counter, but for long, cylindrical objects. Which begs the question: what about scrolls? They are booklike when open and cylindrical when rolled? Hah hah, neither. They use 枚. (Thin, flat objects)

LLMs impress the writers who do not want to write, the coders who don't want to code, the researchers who don't want to research, and the lawyers that don't want to actually understand case law. Those that desperately tell you how powerful Al is and that you simply must use it are looking for you to validate their own laziness or distaste for effort, and those who are impressed with LLMs' outputs tend to be people with low standards.
