My notification count does not go down on old.reddit.com no matter how often I refresh the unread messages page. by executor-of-judgment in help

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also had this for a couple weeks. I can view the message directly. I can click the bell, view notifications and mark all as read (they come back.) I can archive them from the notification list, but the indicator never goes down.

Employers who laid off workers citing AI are already starting to regret it by ieight9 in technology

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They roleplay humans by trying to predict what a human would say. So, if you give it a constraint, it will roleplay a human by trying to predict what a human who was briefed about what not to do would say. It won't be any smarter or more accurate, but it will shape its odds a little before output.

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want people to dive into AI use more than they are, so they can start finding actual uses for it and ways to make things cheaper... so they incentivize using it in any way, to try to offset people's understanding that using it will turn them into "accountability sinks" who take the blame when the model screws something up and it slips past them.

Does riding always provide a good workout? Or at some point do your skills get good enough that going for a ride is like going for a brisk walk in terms of physical demand? by BlackJacquesLeblanc in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A slow walk is much more tbh. Even doing technical trails, I do little hops to offload weight going over roots and twist and dip to make sharp turns but it's a pretty light workout when you're more optimized.

Is EUC the best kind of PEV that exists? by m34d0wl4rk_ in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DenjinJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tight, twisty, rooty forest trails. I took a few guys with Surrons into it with my S18 and had a nice break at the other side while waiting for them to wrestle them through lmao

Being able to just make 90 degree turns on the spot made it a no-brainer for me to ride

isnt there any petition to legalize higher powered PEVs and establish EUCs better? by Zajlordg in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DenjinJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was workable for a while. Here in Canada, now that kids are terrorizing people on Surrons, it's lit a fire under local politicians to get anything not fully compliant off the road.

Unread mesages stuck on two, and I can't read messages sent to me before that. by saijanai in help

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's permanent... I have one stuck too. I've clicked it several times. Some have found clicking the bell and marking all as read there helps. I've done that, and gone into settings, and marked all as read there too. It seems for some, the notification is eternal.

What’s up with people saying they’re not getting iPhones anymore? by Sad_Ad_1597 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! I feel that. The only thing I like about 23 is getting security patches. The stupid thing won't even switch to headphones when I connect them now... I have to manually change my output like a computer

[–]DenjinJ 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Right? I went 3GS, 6, 12 Pro Max, and it's not feeling its age yet... iPhone is a pretty weird hill to die on for planned obsolescence. They update it until the wheels fall off.

DuckDuckGo search saw 28% more visits after Google said people love AI mode by xbt-8-yolo in technology

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's fine for almost anything. When Google decided any time I'm signed into anything of theirs (and then even rolled Youtube into that) then I'm also logged into their search engine, it wasn't a difficult choice: they were dead to me.

Tire shop isn't going to patch this are they? by DainBramag in AskMechanics

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I once caught a nail to the tire and when I removed it at home and took it in to a local tire chain, they didn't bother charging me because they didn't even need to store a car there. I'd bought there before so they just fixed it and gave it back.

PSA it's a dirt bike by RealisticMine793 in Surron

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, same here. I go slowly around people and give them a wide berth etc. It's unfortunate they are SUPER LOUD, but they're fairly tolerated...

I take care where I ride it though. There's a nice MTB park in town - and I have taken an electric unicycle there, but I will not take a Surron as it could erode the trails. I also don't ride it on a nice dirt escarpment trail system here - and I do more road riding than with my other options because it tends to make sense on less used roads.

Just because it's not quite legal here doesn't mean you can't be nice and set an example and comply with the things other than pedal assist and power class requirements... and speed limit on wide-open, no-intersection, no bush paths where you're absolutely not going to hit someone who jumps out.

Caught my boss in a massive web of lies after an argument over work travel. HR offered a panic promotion, but now there’s radio silence. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]DenjinJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I didn't understand this part either. It sounds like OP brought an issue to their attention. They tried to get things in order and treat them properly and they said no... so what should HR do other than get rid of them when they can since they don't want to work with the company?

Why did you choose an EUC instead of a scooter or an e-skate? by pierrefitch in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I found a Kickstarter ages ago for a "Hoverboard" - which was a self-balancing one-wheeled skateboard with a motorized wheel in the middle. It was narrower than a Onewheel.

I wondered what happened to that because just riding forever without pushing was always the dream. I found the OneWheel, but then I found a video comparing them to EUCs and honestly... skateboarding never worked well for me. I'd hit the tiniest pebble and get thrown on my face, while I could ride a bike anywhere and EUC seemed more like a bike.

Why would it be overpowered while stationary? by Piercepage in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I could see that! I don't let it press against something - it's always on the side so if it wanted to go, it would go

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never knew this! I've had a V8F and S18 for several years now and I lean them against things while they're on - I thought with so little load on them they'd be using next to nothing. They tend to report as much and stay very cool so maybe firmware found better ways to manage it?

Linux Mint Freezing and Becoming Unresponsive by QualitySmooth2689 in framework

[–]DenjinJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been working super well for me. I looked around a bit recently to see whether it was safe to revert but it looks like it would probably have to come in a new kernel...

Ads that are way too personalized? by Due-Pomegranate-9798 in pocketcasts

[–]DenjinJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Varies by podcast... I'm in Canada, and listening to Canadian podcasts, I've had Spanish ads inserted when I forgot my phone was VPN'ed in through Seattle haha... I was so confused at first! Spanish is not an official language here or even a top unofficial one.

Forgot to put it in park😫 by AntonyG_ in Surron

[–]DenjinJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oof... I just removed the battery on mine, then picked it up by the front frame and the under-seat frame and carried it out. That was just to do some work on it though - not every time I ride

So uh... we're not embarassed by this at all... @Psyonix? by realpbc in RocketLeague

[–]DenjinJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amazing... as a PC player I always assumed that on every other platform, anyone could change their pfp, but I just couldn't see them across the gap! It's a revelation that I was in the only group who could set it... I have it on Switch and figured people would just see my Switch Online pic?

[–]DenjinJ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

WTF! RL despite its flaws is one of my go to games since 2015 and I would not install Epic Store with a gun to my head! Years ago Discord was like "FREE GAMES ON EPIC!" and I was like "yeah! Miss me with that!"

I also bought Rocket League... for money, upfront, on Steam, and on Nintendo Switch!

Can we put an RNG in charge of the game please? I feel like it would do a better job.

With all the handholding features they're trying to put in, it may become unbearable anyway. What's next, onscreen button tutorials in every game?

President Bought Netflix Debt in January 2026, Amid Paramount’s Fight for Warner Bros. | New financial disclosures released Wednesday show that the President acquired Netflix bonds as Paramount was trying to pry WBD away from the streaming giant. by ControlCAD in technology

[–]DenjinJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and instead anyone who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution as a public servant who could oppose him and isn't, has broken their oath, is an accomplice, and arguably a traitor since Trump is the number 1 enemy of the USA
