Did the QR go to their website or did it have their vcard on it? I do the latter, and the former annoys the hell out of me, because it’s way harder to type a bunch of contact info than to type a fckin URL.
Also yes, this means I have business cards. I don’t use them much but they’re handy for leaving with other business owners in case they want to contact me (hopefully, to order!).
Insult an artist by offering it to them for a commission.
I saw a post about Upscrolled and commented that people should stop joining centralised social media because they all end up the same way, and I got a downvote. On Lemmy.
My friends were all excited about bluesky when that launched, and I told them to join the fediverse because bluesky was just Early Twitter. They didn’t listen, then bluesky welcomed ICE. Now they’re excited about upscrolled, and I told them to join the Fediverse, and they still aren’t listening.
All of which is to say, I have no fuckin idea my guy. People are weird.
So you get a notification, spacelord suggested Hereditas: https://github.com/ItalyPaleAle/hereditas
Not sure if it’s the same one OP is thinking of, though.

When companies are building obsolescence into their products and my customers are keeping devices long past the end of security updates… yep, very easily can be 😅
It’s a very nice concept to be able to dump a shitload of knowledge into a folder, look at “processing…” for a few seconds, then ask questions to get exactly what you’re looking for out of it rather than having to go digging through the mound of information and without having to worry that the computer just threw in a few made up facts for giggles. The idea is that the dumping happens over time mostly, allowing you to quickly find buried information from years ago with a few relevant queries.
One thing I’d do with this is dump all my emails into it, from across all my accounts. That might save me having to search keywords in 8+ accounts over 4-5 different platforms every so often…
It also might have been useful in a lawsuit I prosecuted a few years ago. Instead of going through two years of encrypted messages by hand to pull out relevant excerpts with context, I could have exported the lot and just asked for the information. If it worked it could have saved me months (I spent a few hours after work every night screenshotting, dating the screenshots in chronological order, then I’ve that was done I kept a spreadsheet that I filled with relevant excerpts and links to the screenshots, by reading every single screenshot… it was a lot).
Exactly what it says, what’s confusing about it? The problem with LLMs is that they bullshit; the problem with LLMs bullshitting is that you have to check everything they say, they are not trustworthy - severely limiting the utility. So, don’t trust LLMs. God meanwhile is assumed to be the paragon of honesty, and thus completely trustworthy, so would be the only entity to be trusted implicitly.
This works even if you don’t believe in god, like me: trust nobody, everyone must bring data if they want me to trust what they say.
Turned around:
This is very, very quite similar to the British use of “quite” to mean “extremely”.
Did you see him shit his pants while he was exercising? Quite disconcerting, I must say.
I was responding when you posted that, so I didn’t see it, and you didn’t respond to me, so if you hadn’t said that I might not have seen it at all. And you didn’t bother to look before responding to me because…?
Moreover, I did you a favour by responding with relevant information instead of just telling you to educate yourself, and you want to act like I’m an asshole for pointing out why your question seemed disingenuous? Cool, cheers.

Autism isn’t a “mental state”, it is structural differences in the brain. Being included in the DSM doesn’t automatically classify something as a mental illness, the DSM is published by a single body, the APA. Other professional individuals and organisations have opinions on that: https://www.psychiatrictimes.com/view/the-concept-of-mental-illness-and-why-the-dsm-approach-is-wrong
This seems incredibly disingenuous when you can just go search the internet for the definition, and why autism isn’t a classified as mental illness, but sure, I’ll humour you.
“Autism” is a spectrum of developmental disorders that stem from those brain structure differences I mentioned. An illness is when something is wrong. Not just different, wrong. There’s nothing “wrong” in an autistic person; autism is not a disease or sickness caused by some outside force like a virus or bacteria or drug; it’s not transmissible, and it cannot be developed post hoc (meaning you can’t acquire autism, you’re born with it). There’s no innate reduction in function. It can’t be treated or cured; the symptoms of the mental illnesses caused by dealing with neurotypicals can, but again those aren’t something we’re born with; those are acquired.
At the root of it, we just process information differently than a neurotypical person due to our brains growing differently. It’s like saying ARM is “silicon illness” because it’s not x86_64.

My only correction would be that autism isn’t a mental illness. It’s a difference in brain structure - synaptic density seems to play a significant role (https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/a-key-brain-difference-linked-to-autism-is-found-for-the-first-time-in-living-people/).
“Eccentric” would indeed have been the word, even as late as the 80s. And that’s just men; women often present symptoms differently, or different symptoms entirely and even today ASD can go unnoticed for much longer in young women.

Thank God you asked us first, or you might end up looking like you opened the Ark of the Covenant.
Hound the landlord; this is a habitability issue and interferes with the quiet enjoyment of your residence… A lawyer would love to help convince anyone who gives you shit about fixing it.
My concern is in regards to AI… I think many are relying more and more on it. Making such content a waste of my time in this perspective.
Another way to frame this is “I don’t have anything new to add to what AI would write on the subject”.
Don’t you? Then why are you thinking about writing a blog? Even if it’s just a documentation of your projects, it’ll be your perspective. AI can’t write that, so people who want to read your blog aren’t going to get it from AI.
You’d be astounded at the places you’ll run into the idea that foreskin is gross. I was at a burlesque show - very left-leaning crowd - and the MC asked for “what ruins a bedroom experience for you”. “Uncut cock” was like the second answer and everyone hooted and hollered (though props to the MC, they managed to seem real uncomfortable while playing it off well). I’ve never had it directed at me thankfully, though I have had some surprise from one or two partner that I’m not cut.
I’ll say it til the day I die, I owe my mum a debt I can never repay for not letting my dad do that to me. Just one of the multitude of ways she protected me.
My logic is:
a.) Two QR codes could confuse some scanners… or some people
b.) In the vast majority of cases, it’s faster to type the URL than it is to scan a QR code to go there.
But sure, there’s no reason you can’t do both! And if you do, they should definitely be labelled. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk 😅
