My tinnitus forces me to bike with noise canceling headphones. I mean sure, I wouldn’t recommend it to everyone. But listening to sounds provides a false sense of security. I’m extremely aware of my surroundings since I started using my AirPods. Never do I stop looking around me. This has without a doubt made me a much safer person in traffic.

So even that might not be all to dumb. Though if one is to use headphones, it’s no casual stroll, it’s a constant game of looking out.

The price is for Sweden to push for talks to be brought up again. That is not the same thing as letting Turkey join the EU. Though it should also be said the Swedish prime minister said no new terms have been agreed since November.

Live in an apartment, so that definitely helps. It tidied the floor in every room. But honestly, it’s not so much the vacuum, more so the habit of cleaning a minute or two when I leave the home.

As well as picking stuff up when I’m done with them obviously.

Thinking official organizations, companies, newspapers, celebrities and other well known people being as mad on one side of the spectrum, as what we currently have, is not a centrist view.

Visual Studio professional. It’s so slow though. Would love to use anything else, but am locked down due to work.

My robot vacuum really helped with this. It runs every day while at work, which forces me to pick stuff up and make sure it won’t get stuck somewhere.

Got me into the habit and by now it’s second nature. Before I leave the house I do a quick check/clean, which takes a minute or two at most.

And then you have the obvious benefits in getting the apartment vacuumed.

That blue checkmark is literally an indication of something that should be ignored.

It seems so weird though. The fediverse is small. Extremely small. They are taking on Twitter. A million users on mastodon doesn’t matter when Twitter has 250 million.

Same. Never gave refit Reddit a dime during my 12 years there. Signed up for the patreon on world couple of days back.

I find all to be rather good, and don’t miss r/all that much. There are much less news which I miss. And then there are the niche communities that don’t really exist. I’m very hopeful though!

Probably rather greatly helped by lemmy.world not struggling anymore.

It’s pretty freaking great at stuff like that though. We use a custom programming language at work, there are similarities with Haskell and others, but also many differences.

We had a little game where a colleague had put together some team-exercises. He had encrypted a message in base64 and therein written instructions for code, in our custom language that when run gave you an output.

ChatGPT managed to print out the, 100% non random output, and 100% stuff that’s never been anywhere on the internet, without trouble.

Sorting by top during the last 6 hours is by far the best experience for getting “what’s hot”. It’s not as buggy as hot is, which show months old content.

Even on wefwef it’s very noticeable performance wise though. Swiping back to the feed from a post is very sluggish among other things.

I think people are way to quick to dismiss AI on the basis that it’s not always factual. Searching for stuff and adding Reddit is a great way to get non factual information as well. Everyone that has great insight into a subject knows how horrible many highly upvotes comments are.

Wether you use AI, Reddit or Google, you have to do a quick analysis of how credible it seems. I use all three of them, but more and more AI for niche searches that are hard to get good results for.

It’s insane. People have forgotten protests actually do work. It’s not easy, but it very often get results.

What doesn’t give results however, is doing nothing.

It’s definitely bigger this time around. Though I could definitely see it going down the same route. Though with the way Reddit is heading, there will come more and more stuff like this.

Plenty of times for the alternatives to grow stronger and become real contenders. Rome wasn’t burnt down in a day.

You’re in!

I probably would, yes
