FooBarrington, to memes in Boomers be like

So meanwhile, he’s basically impossible to communicate with, but doesn’t tell people “what did you say? I couldn’t hear you”, he just acts like he heard them and then just makes up whatever he thought they said.

Man, do I hate this. My grandma does the same - she didn’t want to get a hearing aid for many, many years which led to her hearing becoming absolutely terrible. She now has hearing aids, but she still doesn’t understand much if you don’t raise your voice a lot. Yet she acts like she understands everything, and you have to try and interpret her nods to figure out if she actually understood it.

I mean, I get why she does it, she doesn’t want to annoy others by constantly asking - but I’d talk to her a lot more if she was honest with her understanding, because it’s impossible to make a point more than 2-3 sentences long as it is.

FooBarrington, to asklemmy in So is the US slipping into Civil War?

Can you share the numbers you’re referencing? What were the numbers like before they got worse, what are they like now?

FooBarrington, to lemmyshitpost in Why do it

Not quite, Internet Historian also plagiarized parts of his Costa Concordia video. Did hbomberguy actually say that these were the only examples of plagiarism on his channel?

FooBarrington, (edited ) to asklemmy in Why is such a tunnel needed?

I think that these human-made structures provide such a different environment (loud sounds from cars, moving/flashing lights etc.) that previous instinctual adaptations wouldn’t trigger.

FooBarrington, to linux in New Plasma 6 Default Icon Theme Looks

It’s deb, not Debian, so I’d assume it’s the icon for .deb files (which are browsable archives).

FooBarrington, to asklemmy in Tech workers - what did your IT Security team do that made your life hell and had no practical benefit?

Does that keep your status in Teams as “online”? That’s what I use the jiggler for - if I’m waiting for CI tests which take 30+ minutes and I sit in front of the laptop, I don’t want to have to manually jiggle my mouse every couple of minutes just to keep my status.

FooBarrington, to asklemmy in Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

For example,
earlier this week I saw a post on Lemmy,
where a LLM suggested to a user to uninstall a package, which would definitely have broken his Linux distro.

Colleagues of mine have also recommended me uninstalling required system packages. Does that mean my colleagues aren’t intelligent/conscious? That humans in general aren’t?

FooBarrington, to selfhosted in Kubernetes? docker-compose? How should I organize my container services in 2024?

I am happy with my simple docker-compose setup - one root folder with one subfolder per project containing the compose file and any configuration mounted into the container. Traefik automatically exposes all services I want under a well-known URL using a single line in each compose file. Watchtower updates the containers.

This has been running stable for over two years with probably 2-3 reboots in between. If my current NUC ever breaks I’ll set it up again using Podman instead of Docker, but aside from that I couldn’t be happier!

FooBarrington, to lemmyshitpost in Well now I'm disappointed too!

FooBarrington, to baldurs_gate_3 in Baldur's Gate 3 Stats Reveal Who the Most-Romanced Character Is and More - IGN

He is both a romance option and an orgy option

FooBarrington, to privacy in Google Researchers’ Attack Prompts ChatGPT to Reveal Its Training Data

“Blending together” isn’t accurate, since it implies that the original images are used in the process of creating the output. The AI doesn’t have access to the original data (if it wasn’t erroneously repeated many times in the training dataset).

FooBarrington, to memes in Night vs Morning people

I had to get up at 05:30 during my teenage years to get to school in time, which was horrible. If I slept in, I could easily sleep til noon or even later. Now that I’m older, I usually wake up around 08:00, even on weekends.

FooBarrington, (edited ) to comicstrips in "Wild Life" by MrLovenstein

You have no concrete proof. If there ever was proof, it’s certainly not on the table. Oh, and somebody seems to have barfed on it.

FooBarrington, to memes in Question for God

Like any normal person, I hang the ketchup packets from the railings of the tiny house I am balancing on the tip of my penis, you degenerate

FooBarrington, to memes in They don't know

Holy shit was this series good. Still can’t believe we got something like that.
