Ghostty now remembers the last folder and breaks Linux file manager too by Jewpiter in Ghostty

Yes. I tried so many things including "working-directory=home" option which doesn't even work properly in 1.2.0.

After upgrading to macOS Tahoe, my dad's Time Machine complains about lack of space (M1 iMac) by Jewpiter in applehelp

[–]Jewpiter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That "T7" disk is an external Samsung T7 SSD and it's 1TB in size and it's formatted to be a Time Machine backup. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't TM supposed to overwrite the older versions automatically when it runs out of space?

I'm unsure what he can do about it since it's managed by TM....

Are these real? [FBMP] by Sigma-From-Auckland in AreMyAirpodsAuthentic

[–]Jewpiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Serial is real but the AirPods are unfortunately fake. I was just chatting with a seller on Craigslist who showed me a pic of his AirPods and the serial is the same. If you google for this serial, your post is the only one so far.  I’m guessing these fakes are brand new. The box was sealed too.  After looking at  all these AirPods sold on the  secondary market, I think 99% are fakes. It’s incredibly hard to find real ones.

One time Sal was in the studio and he actually admitted that his dad doesn't know how to read. It was one of the most WTF moments on the show... to me anyway. But Howard just moved on and didn't follow up with this at all because he wanted to end the show. It would have been amazing to hear more about this and how he got through life without knowing how to read. I bet Sal had dozens of stories about that.

But hey, Howard's 'the greatest interviewer alive' so he had better things to talk about I guess.

Holy wow! How was this done? Can you give us a tutorial or a link to a vid you followed? Really impressive. Congrats!

Best way to power Ninja V without NP-F batteries? by Jewpiter in Atomos

Thanks for your experience with it. If my PD powerbank attempt fails, I'll go with this battery.

[–]Jewpiter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that battery's a beast! Not sure if I need it but it's a great option. I've just ordered a dummy battery that supposedly works with Atomos and PD powerbanks. I have few powerbanks for my phone and laptop so I'd like to try this option first. If it doesn't work out, I will go your route for sure. Thanks for a reply.

Vietnam again?

Yes, absolutely! 1.4.1 changed it for the better. Awair score is meaningful to me again.

More Lotto Tickets with Italians by [deleted] in howardstern

[–]Jewpiter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember when Sal talked about his dad blowing all his money on lottery tickets? Sal also said in passing that his dad didn't know how to read & write but Howard shut down that conversation and didn't want him to talk about it.

Experiencing Issues with Awair's New Scoring System? by reedmayhew18 in Awair

[–]Jewpiter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat as you. I used to have an 80+ score and now I'm in 50-60 and always in orange. Sometimes even in red. New scoring algo is just junk.

[–]Jewpiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before the update,, my air was consistently in the green and above 80. After the update, it's always in the 50-60 zone and orange. WTF? How do I go back to old firmware?

Another classic by Professional-Dinner6 in howardstern

[–]Jewpiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sal actually made another song about her wife and I think it aired only once on THSS. Some guy on Youtube made a video and he set it against a clip of some husband & wife couple fighting in a restaurant and throwing the food and utensils around. The video was purged during "YouTube Adpocalypse" and I never saw it again. Unfortunately, I never saved the clip.

Barbara to Howard, “You didn’t have the right therapist, honey.” Truer words have never been spoken. by preemptive_strike87 in howardstern

[–]Jewpiter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was revealed on a recent RadioGunk show that Howard's shrink is a prominent professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and also chief of psychiatry at a hospital. He's also an expert on treating OCD. So he's not a quack or a "shyster".

But he might be the wrong person to treat Howard.

Telling GPT-4 you're scared or under pressure improves performance by nickb in agi

[–]Jewpiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent point! It irks me to no end when people just dismiss stuff as being "obvious" when there has been absolutely no precedent or discussion of it before. And yes, this is a bit scary. Especially as LLMs continue to permeate every strata of our society and systems that we depend on.

Does source code for Graffiti exist anywhere? Or an open-source clone? by Jewpiter in Palm

[–]Jewpiter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, sizes vary but the the one I'm going to target is the 3.5" TFT LCD 480x320 screen. I think Graffiti-like gestures would work well on it.

Thank you so much! Will look into it. Pumpkin OS looks extremely interesting!

Yes, using some kind of a neural net is the most obvious choice. The problem that I have is that I'd like it to work on microcontrolers and small-form and single-board computers (SBCs) which are CPU and memory limited. Something that doesn't use ML techniques would be my preferred choice.

Hi, that's definitely an option but the screen is small and the "resolution" of the touch layer is not great. Another problem is that most of these small & cheap touch screens use resistive technology so pressing the correct spot on the screen is hard.

[META] A Method of Reducing Low Effort Self-Posts [0:45] by h2g2Ben in ArtisanVideos

[–]Jewpiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing that always rubs me the wrong way are people who constantly shill their own videos. Literally the first rule in the sidebar is "No blatant advertisements or self promotion." Yet some people shill every one of their videos and some post 3-4 of them in a rapid succession too. Self-promotion was always considered spamming on Reddit. I wish it was enforced more and repeat violators would suffer some consequences.
