maybe god is small too?

I thought we had this, and it's called anonbib?

Thanks, this looks akin to what I'm looking for. Maybe a few features I don't need but looks interesting.

Ah good point. I was looking into buying a used copy of Fire Red / Leaf Green and they were surprisingly expensive.

I have a copy of red, but even with a new battery the save function keeps failing. I suspect I didn't seat the battery well and I need to solder it, but I am not trained in that and reluctant to have my first project involve an expensive retro cart.

Yeah to be clear, I replaced the internal battery. I don't know if the issue is that it isn't seated properly, it was working for a spell. But I can't solder and don't want my first project to be a 1st gen copy of Pokemon.

Anyways, I just want a "known good" emulator for the game boy. It could be a GBA emulator since that's backwards compatible, but I just want something simple to play Pokémon.

To be clear I was weirded out because an emulated copy glitched out, not the physical one. Physical one just had a battery issue.

Why Emerald -- is classic already done?

If anyone has emulator suggestions, I recently attempted a playthrough and found that midway through my copy of red, the game was corrupted? Oddest thing -- hadn't reading the point where you do the "Missingno trick" near cinnebar.

Anyways, I suspect the save got corrupted somehow but it made me swear off emulation and try a physical copy. (Which had the battery I replaced fail... it's been a comedy of errors).

Hypothetically, can we also put the CEOs of the AI companies on these orbital platforms?

>Why did you feel the need to post this comment?

Maybe parent feels like rocket science is a field that should have few launch failures?

I can't give you a quantitative answer since I'm usually focused on new research rather than what company/nation did said research... but their stuff does seem to blow up on the launchpad more often than NASA's :-)

concern is less "expensive pee" more "it'll act as a diuretic" (which might have long term kidney effects)

no

edit: you never go full jim bell

Out of curiosity the use of this API normally logged in MacOS?

This is interesting work... thanks for sharing.

One thing I learned as a globe trotting cypherpunk: always respect sky law.

I consider myself a lifelong student... I'm finding it's accelerating the disconnect between those who actually study things until they understand and those who learn how to please metrics and have total disregard for an objective reality.

Obviously, there's a bell curve of these hypothetical type of people.

But I find that AI amplifies bullshit and makes it harder for me to find out how to do things on my own. I graduated with a 3.1, and I remember remarking to a group of very smart people that it felt like it's impossible to say anything of substance without inevitably doxing yourself, since at our core our experiences define us.

Could the current generation of AI obsessed PhD students write the above? Maybe, the path for them was laid by the metrics obsessed tenure track that came before.

One of the things college did for me was make me respect those who can write well... but we're creating a generation that cannot be creative and cannot compute and then the lash out in the voting booth, in the streets, and the hackers have more mess to clean up.

And please, consider this creative nonfiction? I get they it's HN, but sometimes ppl get so pendantic and part of what drew me into these spaces as a kid was whimsical shit like Douglas Adams, and I think we can all agree that there's a distinct lack of happiness in in both the hacker world and the normie world.

There's a lot of positive uses for "AI". I read a lot more foriegn news. I sometimes speak to or reply to more foreign people. But I also see more bullshit amplified in with those enriching interactions, and the bullshit pile grows and grows and thus, the world we see today. (IMHO)

Edit: Somewhere in the USA

Normally I wouldn't ask this, but having seen the effects of Alzheimer's I must ask: is there any evidence that taking creatine will harm my brain?

Let's be real: I take a lot of edibles. I smoke sometimes on a hike. Every once in a while I get a Guiness and a gyro. My health is by no means perfect, and if I'm willing to take in literal poison (yes, alchohol is that dangerous that I say such things even about my precious Guiness).

Anyways, for years I've been mostly skeptical of vitamins. I've heard a megadose of Vitamin C can shorten the symptoms of a cold, but a "megadose" is relatively small enough that just some OJ can do that, no need for pills.

But if I'm not giving up my Guiness and gyros, I probably should be willing to be more flexible about my "no vitamins or weird supplements rule".

So TL;DR: Let's flip this around: What are the risks of creatine, presuming a safe supply chain? (It's legal where I am as far as I know, which I'm a fan of for most things since then you can get a receipt and there will be some authority that investigates if you're unlucky to get a "bad batch".)

ah, makes sense, thank you.

why is it named this? i'm guessing "fart" means something different in your language :-)

>They just end up rewarded after doing shady tricks more often. Whereas in any other country being too devious too often is fatal.

The market is adjusting apparently given the Mangione case and the Kimberly-Clark distribution center fire.

>Please don't use an obituary to make a nationalistic swipe on HN.

I'm American.

Please don't tone police me, especially if you're going to call me something I'm most certainly not, especially since eighteen other people apparently found my comment useful.

>This is a bit out of date.

I haven't been there in over a decade, so I believe you.

I find it weird that the same set that gatekept me from CS in the twenty aughts because I wasn't a hardcore C coder and quant now can't even write so much as a bash script while feeling entitled to pontificate.

My code is shit but it's MINE

Rejecting the NSA pre-Snowden to design privacy enhancing technologies.

Actually, in a fiscal sense this hasn't worked out well... but at least I can sleep at night.

>Maybe they're a foreign intelligence cutout masquerading as a burned researcher.

Whoever silently downvoted this, I'd love to hear why you so strongly disagree with my assessment.

That now that they've joined NATO, it's safe to share with them.

A "neutral" country might abuse them.

Also, as a practical matter, maybe do as someone says if they have this many zero days sitting around?

While they may have violated various TOS, it's my understanding that dropping a zero day like one would drop the mic at the end of an epic rant is not inherently illegal.

Maybe don't piss off your betters?

>Why would Nightmare-Eclipse not report them if they are not ?

Maybe they're a foreign intelligence cutout masquerading as a burned researcher.

Were you somehow able to intuit that parent is Finnish?

I'm intrigued by your post -- I used to tell people send things like this to CERT/CC... but it's been so long since I dabbled in that world that my contacts have departed and the current administration is so erratic that paired with Finland's recent rejection of neutrality and ascension into NATO that I would frankly agree that your CERT may be a better fit for the majority of people.

I ate a lot 7/11 onigiri as a poor grad student exploring Tokyo on a long layover once... they're truly wonderful little stores. (They also are one of the few places you can use an ATM, very useful given how cash based Japan is)

He can be proud of the legacy he built, which is something many American founders cannot say with a straight face.

Rest in power sir.

But to "chill dissent", you must be capable of tracking it down before it hangs you from a gas station. I don't think you're fully grasping how sudden and forceful change could come if just small number of folks decided to stop giving a fuck about the spirit of the law and do whatever they feel they can get away with.

In my experience, folks from a legal/court context who think they can get cute playing the "you can't prove I broke the rules" game will literally void their bowels in fear when the same is done to them by just one skilled hacker, let alone a group of them all focused on a singular task.

I had a friend point out their patient portal didn't even use HTTPS pre-Amazon buyout. They apparently got super hostile and tried to stop refilling his prescriptions unless he saw a specialist to be evaluated for paranoid schitzophrenia.

The inventory was not done, because the psychiatrist did a simple internet search and found they were a well cited academic who was reguarly quoted by reporters on the subject of computer security.

In a city where you're surrounded by hostile foreign governments, yeeting sensitive data unencrypted into the void is extremely careless. (Especially when you factor in that many folks with clearances used DC OneMedical offices.)

I don't know why you think being acquired by Amazon would make them any better at medicine or information technology OP ;-)

If laws are ambiguous, governments run the risk folks will conclude they'll get in trouble no matter how diligently they try to suss out the spirit of said laws.

When combined with a comical inability to secure government systems, it's honestly super cute that any federal agency thinks engaging in such dark patterns is in any way, shape, or form going to achieve their goals.
