Well I'm not a physicist, but we all travel through time at the speed of light. With a much smaller speed of light, I think relativistic speeds would be much easier to achieve. I.e. you could age noticeably differently than your family on a solo car drive to get groceries.

Loved it myself. Brought a friend that grew up on Looney Tunes and he had a blast. Couldn't stop laughing the whole time.

It's pretty much constant jokes except for a few emotional bits that actually work, surprisingly.

Yeah, I found Orwell's easier to understand and quite fast to read as well, but I think it's just because of the style of writing of the first one. It's from an earlier style of prose that I'm just not used to.

I also don't have a problem with large words as long as I'm well familiar with the words. The length of a word has nothing to do with the complexity of its meaning. We just have a limit to the number of pronounceable combinations of 5 letters.

I was an early adopter of the TiVo. You can hook up a terminal to those things. A dumb terminal or terminal software on your computer using your own serial port. There was a terminal/serial port in the back (baud 2600)that took the form of a 3/4" audio plug.

It was a Linux system, but all their own software running on it was written in TCL.

I don't think they were using TK though.

Pretty fun to hack around with. Since it was connected to the phone line, when a call came in it could get the caller ID off the line and display it on the TV screen.

I know at least old Apple systems had a full Forth interpreter in their bootloader.

Just to add my favorite fool-proof method to the others already listed here.

A meat probe and the 30-second flip technique is a stupid-easy way to a perfect steak every time. Just make sure you've got great ventilation. Also salt the meat 1 hour before.

No, it's like that on desktop too.

Reminds me of word processing on DOS back in the 80s and early 90s. Pre-WYSIWYG.

Shouldn't it be called something like "Copilot Voice"?

Huh, somehow I had no idea that Obsidian wasn't open source. I guess I was fooled by the open source plugins.

People always warn that this setup can corrupt your stuff, which I understand you definitely wouldn't want to try to share Git via Google Drive.

Given that it's paywall, there's a good reason for that. (gift link below no longer works)

Using Claude Channels can make it easy to inject prompts and get just the response back without having to identify it in the terminal output or fight with the TUI.

But they're not well designed, and some things just have to go in through the terminal interface like slash commands (i.e. `/clear`)

The law of Software Envelopment. Jamie Zawinski in 1995 stated that "software inevitably expands to include email functionality, or it is replaced by software that does"

Clearly, that's not the case anymore. Nowadays you just swap out "email" for "LLM"
