Hah, you caught it before the edit. I had rewritten the sentence and the comma was a leftover from the previous syntax.

Another way to put it that shows that there should be no comma : “Eric Adams is charged with stealing $10M. This speaks to a larger plot.”
AI trained to do that job? Sure, yeah. LLM AI? Fuck no.
It could be to protect the cord from being damaged by the prongs - the plastic cover would be softer and less sharp.
Pixel 8 user here - the in-display fingerprint reader is fine, as long as my finger isn’t super dry (which happens regularly). So I’m regularly licking my finger to unlock the device like some boomer that’s used to doing it from turning pages in a book.

Well not that shocked.
Some models do precondition the battery. Of those that do, if you leave the vehicle unattended for months you would notice the drain. Not over a few days though, the power drain is negligible compared to what’s needed to drive, or the increased range loss of a colder battery.
To put things in perspective: The average consumer EV can drive for 3–4 hours, but can power an entire household (including appliances) for 2 days.

I don’t know if it’s still the case, but in my experience (years ago) PGP messed with the proper rendering of HTTP email bodies.
From a security standpoint also, the signature confirming that the email is from your is a double edged sword: Yes, your contacts get to verify that it’s you, but you’re also losing plausible deniability (privacy).

The article’s author mentioned that the problem is not limited to Samsung TVs - someone reported the issue on their phone.
The article does not mention a root cause, but I have a theory that it’s likely a malformed subtitle track. I tend to watch with subtitles on so I run into related issues every once in a while. Most of the time it’s one of two things:
The latter can have multiple effects depending on what format the subs are in, but most of the time it’s a missing end time, meaning that the subtitle stays on. However, some formats also have cues as to who the speaker is, and that comes with a start and end tag like in HTML. I suspect that in this case the end tag is either missing or misaligned in the syntax tree, causing this one line of dialogue to be displayed over and over when the player reaches other lines matching the cue for it, but that don’t get shown because the user has turned subtitles off.
As to why this is bleeding into other shows: I suspect it’s an issue with how the software clients are caching the subtitle files. This would also explain why going back into the episode that caused this fixes things, because it would reset the cached file. Which in turn brings me back to pointing the finger at Amazon, not Samsung, because Samsung would just be loading Amazon’s software client to play the video and subtitles.
My decision tree roughly follows these steps:
I used to also prioritize GoG because it was largely DRM-free, but the Luna partnership is putting doubt on that.
Transparent vs translucent.
Two separate ND diagnoses, but yeah I agree this doesn’t make it double.
Rant: We’re living in a time where curl | bash

Back to the topic: I see it as a problem of not enough education and too much trust. People are not taught how to verify the authenticity and legitimacy of software, and put too much trust in claims of authority. It’s not just a consumer problem either, look at the CrowdStrike incident: people in the industry knew it was shit, but the decision makers kept trusting it because they are a big name. How did they become a big name? The same way a lot of other companies do, by bribing the early decision makers into using them.
Back to consumers: it doesn’t help that there’s no first class sandboxing features. Both Android and iOS rely heavily on app store controls. Sure, there are some system controls, but the user has barely any agency over them.
skibidi and gyatt isn’t a real word
Every word that we use wasn’t a real word until it started getting used. Rejecting new words is a prescriptivist fallacy. If anything this is an exciting time, because we get to study accelerated language changes.
Not any different from, cool, hot, or ass.
Specially the piss babies.
That’s LLM AI, but the type I’m talking about is the machine learning kind. I can envision a system that takes e.g. a sample’s test data and provides a summary, which is not far from what doctors do anyway. If you ever get a blood test’s results explained to you it’s “this value is high, which would be concerning except that this other value is not high, so you’re probably fine regarding X. However, I notice that this other value is low, and this can be an indicator of Y. I’m going to request a follow-up test regarding that.” Yes, I would trust an AI to give me that explanation, because those are very strict parameters to work with, and the input comes from a trusted source (lab results and medical training data) and not “Bob’s shrimping and hoola hoop dancing blog”.
