There’s one out there, named something like kangaroo, where they actually have signed firmware, and a hardware read/write switch (most of the time, the read/write switch is software based) parentheses.

I think I’ll have to do a modified version of that, Imposter Syndrome where half of you is in a suit and the other half is sweats and a t-shirt. “Hi my name is” “how others see you”/“how you see yourself”

I’m sure there will be some fun “huh, odd, all the votes for X went to Y” if it happens.

Ironically, I could see that being the catalyst for ranked choice voting.

Siri, with a local model so that it can actually figure out what albums want to listen to, is one of the only use cases I have for an LLM

No real evidence, just an encounter with what was probably a black bear.

iPad Pro 2022 13" vs iPad Air 2024 13"? (lemmy.world)

I am looking at these two, trying to find a deal on the Pro 2022 that makes it close to the price of the 13" 2024 Air. Right now the "deals" are still in the $999 range for it, as opposed to $800 for the Air. Which sucks - seems like the 2022 is still better, but $200 is $200. I have a pro 10.5" now, but the lure of bigger has finally won out, years later. Trying to see if I'm missing anything - on paper the 2022 is still better, even if older.

Advantages of the Pro 2022:

  • FaceID, not TouchID
  • Promotion display (120hz vs the Air's 60hz)
  • can run external display

Advantages of the Air 2024:

  • Cheaper
  • Newer - supported longer?
  • ? Anything else?

Sentinel - max number of times it can proc in a turn? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking at feats for my Monk. Last night we were fighting the phase spiders and the spiderlings came in. Because we hadn't spread out enough, all of them came towards our group, so they were within melee range of me. I'm wondering if I would've gotten a reaction attack against each one (so... 6?), or if it's a once-per-turn thing. Thanks.

any way to mark ALL old posts read? (lemmy.world)

I have “mark read when scrolled past” turned on. And now I have (1) posts within the past day or two, and (2) posts older than a month (since I joined about a month ago).

Is there any way to mark ALL older posts read? It’s weird because I’ll be reading a post from a few hours ago, and then suddenly be reading news from a while ago, and I’m sick of hearing about the old news.

Thanks!
