Can it run DOOM?

That graph seems odd. It looks like Gemini 3.5 Flash is not actually on the convex hull, and they forced the 'frontier' to bend inwards to include it

I've never played this, but this move has made me curious. Is there a way I can still play this on Android? An apk or fdroid or a mobile web version?

I can't tell if this is intended to be read straightforwardly or as satire. The general summary seems to be Labour bad because I dislike Labour decisions

Labour flaws are presented with hyperbole like [demolishing foundations] While Tory flaws are accompanied with commentary like [it's not perfect, but nothing is]

"I'm getting Facebook ads for something we were just talking about verbally so it must be listening in" has been debunked time and again. Any combination of other browsing based inference, baader meinhof, and pure coincidence would be at play

I think that by "can guess fake words" in the title OP means that the tool can come up with a plausible guess for the etymology, even for fake words. Unfortunately, the more common reading of that phrase is that it can tell fake words from real ones

> They are a net positive by a large margin Maybe initially. The 'large' margin is getting smaller every day. Pricing is opaque and ever increasing. A subscription is slowly becoming a requirement rather than a ln add on. Most of the price increases are not passed on to the driver. Drivers in most markets are 'independent contractors', which they're realising is a bad deal. They've only recently moved from market-capture mode to tighten-the-screw mode. Expect the enshittification to accelerate

As a UK resident who's recently given up alcohol, the pub culture part is the thing I miss the most. The quick pseudo-answer is non-alcoholic drinks, but it creates a weird dynamic when most of the group gets slowly inebriated over the evening, and you sip lemonade

I've been looking for something like this (Not for Korean though) and I'd even be happy to pay - though I'd prefer to pay by usage rather than a standing subscription fee. So far, no luck, but watching this thread!

I just tried making one after reading your comment, and it was... pretty straightforward? I'm curious what blockers you encountered

The Netflix show _Altered Carbon_ was adapted from the book _Altered Carbon_ by Richard K. Morgan

Children of Memory is my favourite in the series! If you liked the first two (#1 was significantly better imo), you should 100% go for the third

This looks great. What's the closest/best Mac equivalent?

> the average book should have a 2.5 Disagree on this. This assumes that people read books completely at random. In reality, people read blurbs/summaries or get a recommendation and the typical book you read is likely to be better than the midpoint between the worst book you've read and the best book you've read (I'm assuming a linear scale mental model).

The top four here are pretty much the biggest reasons I use an Android rather than an iPhone
