The first printed work in Swedish was a 1489 translation of a Papal bull offering indulgence to those who donated to a religious war against the Ottoman Empire. *sigh*

I'm more cynical.

After all, they surely know what "intelligence" means, but they misuse that in order to mislead people.

Since all of my cars completely broke down in the past few days I had to get a working one ASAP. With limited resources at my disposal, I bought a 24 years old Volvo. A fucking diesel. Now I wonder what the environmental impact of buying an old diesel will be. I gave an old machine a few more years of life. No idea if it was a good or a bad thing to do.

me to other women: "💕 you should be kinder to yourself 💕"
me to myself while editing my videos: "I breathe too much"

"Grok" being the name for an AI chatbot is just the latest example of tech bros not understanding science fiction. In "Strangers In a Strange Land", the famous 1950's novel the term comes from, to "grok" something is to understand it on a deep level. AI chatbots, as we all know by now, do not grok—they bullshit.

I'm really tired of sci-fi terms being used by people who read the books and got nothing from them beyond “lol this word sounds cool”. (See also: “metaverse”.)

Remember kids, the difference between fucking around and science is accurate process and observation notes.

Polityka 

Prezydent Trump popiera Premiera Morawieckiego i tłumaczy, że takie kilka hektarów za kilka tysięcy to bardzo uczciwy deal, który może zrobić każdy człowiek z ulicy z odrobiną rozumu i zaprzyjaźnionym sądem najwyższym.

I guess I should vacuum it all, but then I'd kill an amazing creature that reduces the number of insects in the house. OTOH, even if I vacuum beyond the rainbow bridge their relatives will soon be back.

@m0bi13 @pawelkuzia@wspanialy.eu @pawelkuzia@tube.pol.social Od czasu uwolnienia się od google mam już drugi telefon z LineageOS (wcześniej Xiaomi, teraz Samsung), bez Google Apps/MicroG. Do rzeczy, do których używam telefonu, działa dobrze, ale trudno mi określić szanse powodzenia działania różnych powszechnie używanych aplikacji dla tych, którzy by chcieli/potrzebowali je mieć. Jak trochę testowałam z ciekawości to sporo aplikacji wyświetla po uruchomieniu komunikat, że bez usług Google Play nie działa, ale po zamknięciu tego komunikatu będzie działać normalnie. Przynajmniej dopóki to nie jest powiązane z Safety Net - czy jak obecnie to się nazywa.
