Geez, how is this comment so far down the list? Reading Dario's list of all the bad things AI could do, I kept asking myself "who would be so stupid as to give AI control of said instruments of destruction?" Dario writes as though the AI just assumes control of the physical world because it is SO POWERFUL.

I'm guessing it doesn't handle images because you'd have to upload the image, right? I tried one in this format:  with no luck. (Update: it works with URL links)

It doesn’t support local images yet since it currently only renders uploaded Markdown, but I’m looking into ways to make it work. thanks for the feedback!

If you can formally prove correctness then brilliant, go for it!

That's not something I've seen or been able to achieve in most of my professional work.

As an old-timer who learned programming with punched cards, this visualization blows my mind. I want to turn it into my desktop screen saver.

A second monitor running this in surf mode might be a close second

Here's what I did: $ pip install beets $ beet config -e $ beet import Music/BillEvans The database directory /home/user/.beets does not exist. Create it (Y/n)? y configuration error: import must be a collection, not NoneType

I was momentarily flummoxed by the error message. I pretty quickly realized I had mistakenly commented out all the lines in the import section of the config file. But for a nontechnical person the error message might be a bit hard to interpret. Maybe consider a more beginner friendly message with hints on how to correct the problem?

That sounds simple, but wouldn't the ebook you "pulled off" the Kindle still be in Amazon's format with DRM? I don't think this solves the original problem.

The first problem was to get the original file from somewhere in a usable format, then strip DRM in a later stage. Seems like step 1 was already made significantly harder now.

Digression ... you must be using "wilderness" in it's colloquial form, because technically, if he's in a cabin he can't be in wilderness. Federally designated wilderness areas don't allow permanent human habitation.

Furthermore, the planet we are on cannot possibly be in space. Space is mostly empty, has no breathable atmosphere, there are no trees or grocery stores there, etc.; Earth is quite the opposite.

The cabin is located in the wilderness, not part of it, and it’s real wilderness, not a wilderness designated area

I like what EndlessOS is trying to do but it prioritizes the ability to be a complete OS that doesn't need an internet connection, whereas the article wants a browser-first OS (and assumes an internet connection). So aren't those kind of different use cases?

I think it's also the immutable nature of EndlessOS, its not something you can break as easily as a regular Linux distribution, and acts much more like ChromeOS.

Hopefully there would be an option to turn off cloud sync.

Misread the title as "I made my VM think it WAS a CPU fan" and was a bit disappointed to find the actual article was not about a VM with an identity crisis.
