@ancientjames cyberpunk AF 👌

@me_ very interesting, thanks for sharing! Is that already a "standard" serial terminal (RS232), or something custom?

@ignaloidas peak webdesign 👌

@thomasfuchs Good question, have the same problem. This is an occasion where I would really like some sort of "subscribe thread" feature in Mastodon...

Went through a random underpass in Aalborg and found it plastered with... Bitcoin graffiti? 🤨 This is not something you usually expect to encounter in "the real world"...

@newsguyusa Hrm. I can only think of two possible explanations:

1. Whichever company made the old steam catapults happened to make a big donation to the ballroom.

2. The electric catapults were introduced under Biden (or even worse, Obama).

@clemens sooner or later, this will happen to me with a Sun SPARCstation IPX 🫣

@phoerious LOOOL such an enormously useful visualization (except maybe for finding that tiny bit of northeastern Russia that hasn't gotten a proper eclipse in 1000+ years 😅)

20260813-065558

P.S. If you missed the eclipse yesterday, NASA has some awesome maps to help you plan the next viewing opportunity: eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEatlas/

(Australia is really reaping it in, eclipse-wise, over the next 15 years 😮)

Update: got some nice views after all 👍 (smartphone camera picture through cardboard eclipse glasses is a bit wonky, obvs 😅)

It's less than two hours to the peak of the eclipse and now there's a bunch of clouds rolling in. I am offended. 🙄

@phoerious I've obviously been out of the loop for a while - didn't know about these yet, looks like they would at least be harder to remove than some UTF8 stuff. How much text is generally needed here for reasonable detection confidence?

20260812-135748

Did anyone already have a look at how Anthropic has implemented their "AI watermarks" in text output? I'm assuming it's some UTF-8 shenanigans with zero-width joiner characters or something?

20260812-064336

@a_watch Nein! Doch. Oohh. 😑

@cryptohagen "uheld" = Copilot 🙄😑

@matthias_aus_b @abulling nach dem, was ich so als Zaungast bei BMW seinerzeit mitbekommen habe, ist das vermutlich alles an die billigste Consulting-Klitsche outgesourced, die sie finden konnten, mit genau dem zu erwartenden Ergebnis 🫣

20260811-052152

@dervomsee @abulling Schau ich mir mal an, danke! 👌

@hannorein I do the same, although I do fill out the form every time and tell them I don't work for vultures (in slightly nicer terms).

20260810-200837

@abulling Ah, das bestätigt leider meine Vermutung... 🙄 Ich bin gerade dabei, mich in Richtung E-Van umzusehen, und 90% vom Gebrauchtmarkt bestehen blöderweise aus dem ID Buzz. Vielleicht lieber noch ein bisschen warten.

It's been quiet for a while on the crackpot CfP front, but here's a new one: "Hiding the New Dictators of Narco-Education behind UCD, STEM, Gender and AI Studies" 🥴🤪

Looks like the "Gardunia Factor" is old and busted, and "Narco-Education" is the new hotness? 🤔
