Which stage of bubble popping are we currently in, that Microsoft feels the need to make em dash easily typeable to give AI slop enthusiasts plausible deniability?

@atpfm Taycan as a fun electric car with CarPlay that’s not a Tesla is pretty much the exact reason why I got a used 1st gen Taycan myself, and I am very happy with it. It’s very long, VERY WIDE, and the range is not great compared to the current generation of EVs. But I would buy it again. No regrets.
@atpfm Vision Pro’s digital crown can be remapped to default to volume control. I did just that, as I tend to adjust it more often than the immersion.
@atpfm Marco have a look at OrbStack (https://orbstack.dev/). It’s a Docker reimplementation that feels very native to the Mac. The app can do much more than that (incl. running full x86 VMs via Rosetta), but even as a Docker replacement it’s worth a look. Accessing Mac filesystem from the container and vice versa is also very comfortable with OrbStack.
The on-device LLM model bundled in iOS 18.1 Beta 1 seems to have a data cut-off date some time in 2023, however, for some categories of questions it answers with 2022 or even 2021 data points.
Answering questions is, of course, not what the model was designed for. It’s supposed to rewrite your emails and messages. But, with a special prompt, you can turn it into a very primitive chat bot 🙂

@mawhrin The sentence in question (“To prevent this, remove `anon` from the `wheel` group and he will no longer be able to run `/bin/su`.”) does not even refer to a user-person, it refers to a user-account. So if we want to be pedantic, the sentence should use “it”.
Hence, I am not surprised that a pull request from a total stranger that contributes nothing to the project besides an equally incorrect pronoun use compared to the current state is perceived as bad faith effort by the maintainer.
In general, we should avoid putting labels on people based on our assumptions if not 100% backed up by their actions.
@mawhrin That’s a big claim considering the actual exchange that took place under that commit.

If you’re fully in Apple ecosystem, you can use #Authy iPad app on your desktop computer. It works great.
@dimitribouniol In case somebody here wants to get rid of their dongle, please let me know. Living in Europe, I am looking to acquire this dongle for potential visionOS restore needs. Please ping me via a private mension. Thank you
