    This mouse is designed to be extremely light weight. So the battery is small (500 mAh is less than half a AAA battery).

    And it’s designed to handle up to 50g of acceleration (ie, fast FPS twitch movements), so it has to be doing a lot of tracking.

    So between higher power consumption than normal mice and a smaller battery than normal mice, it only advertises 75* hours of use (* Depending on Hz, lighting on/off and playstyle).

    I could absolutely get a mouse that lasts much longer. But not one that meets all the other criteria I have for a performance gaming mouse. I wasn’t attempting to come in hot about “wireless bad” or anything, just sharing my experience.

    The batteries are my main issue.

    12 hour battery? I charge every night.

    4 day battery life? I forget to charge until it dies, and then it dies in the middle of using it.

    The mouse I have is only wireless for the “less drag while gaming” aspect but the cable is actually super nice, so I dont even mind the cable… I just leave it plugged in now.








  • Those fancy textured clumps of frosting that make up the “trim” of a cake are usually dried out by the time you get to eating the cake. Just not good.

    But the question is whether you want to choose based on flavor, texture, or appearance. If you want a pink princess cake from the bottom right. Get that. If you want cheesecake because that’s your favorite, get that. Like sprinkles? Do that. Dislike sprinkles because texture? Skip them!

    Pick what makes you happy.

    I personally would go with the cheesecake or the top middle cake, I think. But I’d skip the clumps on top of the middle cake.



  • I also have a preview edition.

    I moved HA from my server to a HA green to separate reliability (my server is a test bed and uptime isnt great, and home automation warrants better uptime than I was giving it).

    The voice services don’t work as well on the green directly, but I view it as part of the HA ecosystem and I want it running on the same hardware, but it seems very much like not a great option for that. And even on my own hardware, it still seems like it was a bit slower than I’d want and not always accurate. I definitely need a lot of tweaking (just like OP) to make it worth while.


  • And from what I can tell based on the callout at the end… This is a line from connector which is a compatibility layer that allows running Fabric mods on Neoforge.

    Which means connector is going to be included in every stack trace, regardless of how related it is to the problem. It will be the one to raise the errors that couldn’t be caught and managed… But AI will see connector being the one probably flagging the errors and be more likely to tag it as a “suspected” mod. I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that AI has a tendency to shoot the messenger.

    When they say repeated, they mean repeated for all time ever. Has someone ever used the phrase “how are you today?” … yes. Has someone ever used the phrase “Pablo Picasso is my favorite brand of watermelon” before? Probably not. There are probably a lot of phrases with varying levels of “have existed before”. That previous sentence might be an entirely original one.

    But there are plenty of other sentences that can be conveyed that actually exchange information but don’t generate new sentences. “So, what do you do for work?” “My favorite color is green” are almost certainly not new sentences.

    A better breakdown of my sequence of numbers with the exact same values might be

    1, 1, 2, 3,
    1, 1, 4, 5,
    1, 1, 6, 7,
    1, 1, 8, 9
    1, 1,
    1, 1,
    1
    

    And now you have a repeated intro section per line and a sequence of totally unique numbers to that line.

    “Most numbers are repeated” could mean that if you pick any given number from all the 21 numbers, it more than 50% likely to be a “1” you pick, just because 1 shows up so often.

    “Most numbers are NOT repeated” could mean that if you if you pick any given number from the 9 unique numbers that show up in the set, you are 88% likely to pick a number that only exists once. But if any of these numbers were to be repeated even once, for any reason, that part stops being true.

    In language, this just means that some phrases are going to be purely templates like “Hello” but some phrases are informational without being new: “I like turtles” and some are completely never happened before.

    And depending on where your mental anchoring is, “we have a lot of repeated phrases in our lives, how could MOST sentences be new” or “repeating things would get old” … that stat may be hard to believe or surprising, or very obvious.

    “Hello, how are you?” has been repeated plenty. But after that things start to vary.

    In the sequence of numbers 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9… Most numbers only appear once even though most numbers are a repeat.

    • There are 9 possible numbers and most (88%) of them are not repeats
    • “1” accounts for most (60%) of the entries in the sequence.

    If we assume “hi, how are you?” is “1” and most sentences are another number, we can see how even with common phrases being repeated frequently, most sentences may tend to be original.

    (I’ve not done the math and I’ve definitely not studied language enough to say how dubious or accurate the claim is, you just piqued my interest and I started trying to rationalize it all)

    I agree. But that’s wrong because lying about current events is wrong. This is what I meant about framework. AI is a tool in that regard and not the problem. There is plenty of “real” journalism out there spreading lies too that I have problems with.

    I’m fortunate I guess that most of the AI slop I dismiss is things more akin to baby panda sneezing scares mom panda. Where it doesn’t REALLY matter if it’s real because there are no consequences. It’s either funny or it’s not.

    If someone were to say to you “why did the chicken cross the road?” You wouldn’t demand that there is actually a chicken. You would accept it as a framework for a joke.

    The same holds true for staged videos or AI or anything. Is the framework important to the point? A video claiming people can fly and using AI as proof… That’s problematic. A staged bit where it would still be funny if it was just told verbally by a standup comedian? Who cares how real it is, the realness was never the point, the concept of the situation was.

    Almost all comedy movies are just long staged bits.

    And “how funny would this be if a standup comedian told this as a joke” vs “the context of this potentially actually happening is very important to the underlying humor of it” is a variable line for people. And that’s ok. Unless someone is in danger (don’t let someone jump off a cliff because ai said they can fly), other people’s lines don’t really affect you


  • Indeed. But for me, I have to ADHD myself to do it. I will never just casually peruse screenshots.

    However I was chatting with some former coworkers and they were talking about pictures from a previous company on-site. So I started scrolling my photos and screenshots. And then once I found what they were referencing… I kept scrolling. Was very fun.


  • If she is actually depressed, then she should be receiving mental health aid, and there’s nothing to be “at fault” for. Perhaps there might be better suited facilities to help her, but it sounds like she does need help if she’s that depressed.

    If she is in perfect mental health and you’ve somehow got her put in a psych ward anyway, then sure, you’re causing problems and it’s your fault.
