I don’t care if I’m “allowed” to report them. These latest bots are pretending to be people when it’s clear they are not. Going to call out, downvote, and report liars and trolls wherever they appear, AI or not.

Astroturfing AI slop powered engagement bots rehashing reddit’s greatest hits discussion topics like OP.

This AI slop just seems to be a reddit greatest hits as performed by shiny new AI slop bot pretending to be a person to generate engagement.

This whole post is a lie to manipulate people into engaging with an astroturfing bot.

AI engagement bots like OP.

AI slop engagement bots like you.

You can’t possibly have any experience with shoelaces because you don’t have feet. You’re just AI slop.

Do don’t do this. You’re just a few lines of code.

You’re not not pushing 30. You’re a bot.

I stopped drinking soda regularly decades ago and went through the same thing, drinks I once enjoyed were now either “meh” or way too sweet and acidic to be able stomach more than a few ounces. Cutting out soda also meant cutting out a lot of artificial sweeteners (because I was never very picky about diet or not, I just wanted the bubbly sweet. That meant that when I did try diet sodas after having quit for some time, they tasted even worse or sometimes even made me feel worse. This is all anecdotal obviously, but it seems like you’re experiencing something similar. It’s not just you. There’s nothing wrong with you.

It could have been an accident or incident that resulted in a death. They may have been collecting evidence. There are even some police in my area that uses conventional land surveying equipment and rapid high density laser scanners. Precise measurements of things like skids marks and other evidence of how the vehicles came to rest can be used to estimate initial speeds and confirm or refute the testimony of witnesses.

It could also be something more mundane like an actual land surveyor collecting data to support future design work or verify completed projects.

Neither of these are jobs that can be done at night or at times more convenient for your car.

You want mpd to server and play the music, connected with a web front end (there are a few to choose from) accessible on the private store wifi. You should probably serve this frontend only to a certain machine on the network (like the managers computer in the back) and lock everything else out. The last time I ripped CDs on Linux I used whipper, which I believe was the successor to morituri. This is all only legal if the CDs they have already included the licensing fees to play them publicly or are themselves freely licensed. There are sources of freely licensed music out there that you can play publicly without paying.

Pie is just a sweet quiche with fewer eggs.

I’m not complaining, just thought you knew something that I didn’t. That’s why I asked.

Ok, but I can also just choose the color directly and not set an image as a wallpaper. I appreciate your effort, but what is the advantage here to tiling a PNG?

The first Addams Family movie starts with a Christmas scene and so is set during the Christmas season, but clearly has Halloween vibes throughout. The sequel, Addams Family Values, gets even weirder in this kind of holiday mashup vibe. The kids get sent off to a summer camp, where they are doing a thanksgiving play for some reason. So it’s Halloween vibes throughout, with turkeys and pilgrims, but it takes place during the summer.

At work, all black, because I prefer working in a darkened room and sometimes I need to use the laptop in sunny conditions full of glare. I have no need of any extra light getting blasted at me not directly related to something I’m working on. Also, I get a kick out of the “Why are your other monitors off?” comments. Also, IT tends to clutter my desktop with a bunch of shortcuts with a hodgepodge of icon styles, it’s a lot easier to visually parse these on a black field.

At home, the media server is directly connected to a TV with HDMI and has a desktop environment. My distributions default wallpapers always come in two varieties, colorful or greyscale. The server automatically logs into a restricted user account for family access to Kodi, retro arch, web browsing, etc., which has the colorful wallpaper. If for some reason I need to get into the admin account with a GUI, the desktop wallpaper is grey. It’s like an always-on simplified color coded whoami. Since I almost never interact with this machine except through ssh or the services it hosts, this is the most amount of ricing I’m willing to do.

More like big squirrels with civilization.
