Neat!

I'm old enough to remember the PXL2000, always wanted one but was too poor as a teenager. (Not the tech used in OP's video link from what I can tell but reminded me of that device).

Can't SIGTERM be observed to react to a poweroff?

[–] Arghblarg@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago

Aha, indeed it was. My bad, thanks.

As much as I despise the guy, this is AI bullshit (which I also happen to hate). Downvote for not tagging as AI.

Sugar coma just from viewing this. Guh.

Doesn't work for me? Vivaldi (Chrome-based browser, desktop) using old.lemmy.ca

Oh... ha, I browse using the 'mlmym.org' theme. Using www.lemmy.ca I see it works. Must be a bug in the theme. I'll see who I can report to, for a fix. Thanks.

What, not even our nice Norwegian ~shape-shifting assimilating microbes~dogs?

EDIT: I am sad lemmy doesn't appear to support strikethrough.

So... if anon took those papers and just taped them back together, would they still be legally binding if submitted?

Would this depend on the jurisdiction/country? I've never thought seriously about whether tearing up signed legal documents constitutes a refutation after they're signed. (a pile of torn-up papers doesn't carry any proof of which, either or both, parties agreed to the tearing-up). And thankfully never been in a situation where this question would arise. Also assuming 'tearing up' wasn't enough to prevent taping them back into a mostly-complete state.

I think I might even hate cryptocoins and AI more now... at least the oil does useful work (in the physics/mechanical sense) to keep society going; the former two just waste energy (mostly from oil!) to create fake wealth and spew mostly-bullshit. Oh, and in the case of AI, steal creative works from humans.
