- Comment on US government says security flaw in Chirp Systems' app lets anyone remotely control smart home locks 3 weeks ago:
Never give anyone else control of systems that are directly responsible for your physical safety. Door locks are just a mild deterrent and breaking through a door at least leaves more evidence for the police never to follow up on.
And for fucks sake, stop putting “cloud” connected cameras in your fucking houses! (You are more likely to incriminate yourself in a crime anyway.)
- Comment on 105 Trillion Pi Digits: The Journey to a New Pi Calculation Record 1 month ago:
There is that word again. That’s the second time I have seen it and the second time that the context has baffled me.
- Comment on Some teachers are now using ChatGPT to grade papers 2 months ago:
I am surprised that most data entry and billing jobs haven’t been automated already. After a quick Google check, it still seems to be a hot topic for human workers.
I do agree with you though. Unless we are talking about multiple choice tests, grading should be a human teaching a human to be human. The few teachers I had that truly gave a shit about me as a person remain my personal heros over 30 years later.
- Comment on Microsoft AI engineer warns FTC about Copilot Designer safety concerns 2 months ago:
Frank Shaw says the company is “committed to addressing any and all concerns employees have in accordance with” Microsoft’s policies.
Yeah. I am sure it will be addressed and then promptly forgotten. Once this is out of the news, MS will address it once more with a bad review and termination.
- Comment on David Chase Says TV’s Golden Age Is ‘Over:’ It Was a ’25-Year Blip’ 3 months ago:
Older things were only better for me because of an active imagination.
I refuse to watch the original Star Trek series again for that reason. I tried to watch some of them once but all the magic was gone. The effects are horrible, the scripts are flat and the stories are creative, but still moderate.
However, I can think back and remember most of the episodes I enjoyed as a kid and it’s just as awesome as it once was. It don’t remember the details,obviously, but I remember my emotions and reactions. That is good enough to let the magic live on.
- Comment on What is the thing that resembles a camera shoe under the handset holder found on telephones with a handset used for? 5 months ago:
You probably grew up in the age of rotary phones too, hu? The last one I used was only … uh… 35 years ago, I think.
- Comment on According to the site "What does the internet think?" when asked about Elon Musk - The internet is very positive about 'Elon Musk'. And that's why you shouldn't believe everything you read online. 5 months ago:
Being serious for a second, that site just counts hits returned by search engines. ‘Bad breath’ returns an 89.6% positive result, as weird example.
- Comment on [Help] Is there a way to stop the "BIP" sound when speaker are plugged ? 7 months ago:
The video will not load for me for some reason.

Cool. The video is still getting processed, and I won’t be able to view it until the morning. (It’s 3AM my time, so sleep time for me.)
Just looking at the picture though, I am going to speculate for fun: The audio cable is poorly shielded and is also very close to small, but relatively powerful, transmitting antennas. I suspect you might be hearing the Bluetooth check-in and handshake.
- Comment on [Help] Is there a way to stop the "BIP" sound when speaker are plugged ? 7 months ago:
The sound is coming from the built-in speaker on the deck when you start a game, or from external speakers when you plug them in?
Can you post steps to replicate the problem?
