Ditto. Even though I'm an expat right now if Poland calls to arms I'm coming home and fighting to defend my country.

I can't tell if you guys or the Finns are better at dealing with invaders, but I can't think of a higher compliment on this matter.

To each their own. I would gladly take a high DPI screen with low refresh rates over the opposite. For work I can't bear to have any monitor with less than 220DPI.


In terms of those retro "3D" logos I always favored the ones from Sun, Silicon Graphics and Nintendo 64. The NEXT logo looked amateurish by comparison.


Wall-E in the best case, Manna (https://marshallbrain.com/manna) in the most likely scenario.

But I'm a pessimist.


Manna is such a cool story. It’s too bad the author copped out at the end instead of fully exploring a world with AGI but no robots.


"Your closest match is a lion".... alright, I'll continue drinking coffee and staring at the screen all day then.


Oh, we're bringing back webrings now? That's one piece of internet lore I forgot about!


Hopefully the coding improvements are meaningful because I find that as a coding assistant o1-preview beats it (at least the Claude 3.5 that was available yesterday) but I like Claude's demeanor more (I know this sounds crazy but it matters a bit to me)

Too many pages are either ephemeral or generated by an SPA making this idea less than ideal.

There used to be an excellent service that allowed you to save downloaded versions of entire pages to your account, it was called furl.net IIRC. The service was well ahead of its time as it included search capability within the content of the saved documents. It was extremely handy for building supporting documentation for all kinds of research. From time to time I entertain the idea of recreating furl and testing if it would catch on this time around.

I've noticed this. The worst part is if you are looking for some specific piece of information similar to other links that are still valid it's hard to tell if you have the correct information at hand or not.

Chrome can take a full page snapshot of a webpage but the image is not high res.


Firefox can also do full page screenshots of web pages, and is usually pretty clear.


Thanks for mentioning this.

I just tested it out and I think it is a bit clearer than Chrome.


would you know it's AI if you didn't know going into it?
