Best game (novel with game elements?) I've played so far this year was citizen sleeper.

Dave the Diver was a nice one to pick up in short stretches.

Balatro up great too but I had to uninstall it before I got hooked.

Got a few different opinions too with others quoting โ‚ฌ3k for a new cylinder head and โ‚ฌ1.5k for a new timing chain.

Only issue was the alternator belt had a nick on it and needed to be replaced.

I know publer.io works with Bluesky with a 10 post limit on the free tier

There's also www.blueskyscheduler.com which is bluesky specific with no limits on the number of posts you can schedule but only a 7 day calendar

deck.blue is like tweetdeck but scheduling is a paid feature โ‚ฌ1/m per 10 posts

OpenAIโ€™s new defense contract completes its military pivot A new partnership with Anduril, announced today, will deploy AI on the battlefield. It represents an overhaul of the companyโ€™s position in just a year.

๐Ÿคท Looks like they just announced it

"If working with militaries or defense-tech companies can help ensure that democratic countries dominate the AI raceโ€ฆ then doing so will not contradict OpenAIโ€™s mission of ensuring that AIโ€™s benefits are widely shared."

Windows runs the world due to corporate deals, one of which was shown to be monopolistic but by the time it was proven by the courts the other company was bankrupt.

Even if ChatGPT has some functionality it can't eliminate enough labour to justify the capital cost of models and hardware.

Since the way LLMs work is based on next word prediction those headlines would make sense for causing companies to have to backtrack on harmful practices and committing genocide

I got a paper back from an academic publisher a week ago that had clearly been copy-edited by AI. It took three hours to unpick the issues it had caused and the errors it had introduced.

It's v exciting that we now have a product that increases my workload and that my university is mad for.

In 1981, a British Businessman Was Shot in the Arts Block. Why Does No-One Remember? On March 24th, 1981, three armed men walked into the Arts Block and shot a visiting lecturer three times in the leg. Mystery still surrounds the event.

It's amazing how we forget about our own young Italian radical shooting an executive officer in a political statement.

Although, when you can manufacture an excuse for laying off 10% of workers based on a metric that is unrelated to the tasks involved in the job $240K is a pittance for the shareholder value gained in the short term.

The Business-School Scandal That Just Keeps Getting Bigger The rot runs deeper than almost anyone has guessed.

"Starting salaries at business schools can be $240,000 a yearโ€”double what they are at campus psychology departments, academics told me."

That's a fine salary when you just need to come up with wild "discoveries" and then manufacutre the data to back them up
