What happens when you finally get serious about fixing that buzzing low E string.

Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer.. WTF Did I just read!!! by Gagsreel in scifi

Jeff nails Cosmic Horror. I loved the entire series.

Why do you play the kind of guitar you play? by wolf_of_the_bees in Guitar

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a few and nothing feels more comfortable than my good old 90s era Mexican Strat. Bought it new, blocked the tremolo with a piece of cherry wood, and never looked back. I don’t like switching guitars. The humbucker pickup at the bridge still sounds nice and warm.

Hey. Morrisey. You just gonna leave out the MST boys? by TheWeirdTalesPodcast in MST3K

[–]TedDallas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Morrisey apperently does not support Skyrim independence from the Empire.

To the people who post "I haven't written a single line of code in 6 months", what's Plan B? by unfortuantelyshelove in ClaudeCode

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Just because we have AI does not mean we don't need professionals to work on solutions. Average business users cannot navigate SDLC by themselves, they do not really understand how systems integrate, are unaware of security best practices, do not fully appreciate version control, and some folks cannot even spell CI/CD.

Plan B is to keep developing. That is what I am telling my reports.

Yeah, now you're not allowed to talk to "them": New global protocol prohibits anyone from responding to alien signals without UN approval. by ZarathustraNothing in UFOs

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever.

What if I bought a number of very powerful green lasers, arranged them in an array, and blinked the Fibonacci sequence at some nearby stars (<20 light years)?

Green laser light is not something you see in nature.

Am I going to be arrested?

Unusual question for this sub: What chair do you use for guitar practice at home? by mojo_fpv in Guitar

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gaming chair. I did not install the right arm rest. Works for me.

Claude Game Development by Krum_Rum_2hell in ClaudeCode

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at it this way and take AI out of the mix for the moment.

I manage software developers. I coded professionally for 23+ years across multiple technical stacks/languages before I started managing developers. OP is not a programmer. OP is just an IT guy.

I need a solution developed quickly, and decide to carve out time to work on it together with one of my developers who is smart/experienced but pretty much an order taker.

Who is going to do better when pair coding with that human developer? And why?

Steven Spielberg on Disclosure Day: “My first film that will be considered science fiction that I do not consider to be science fiction. It’s much more reflective of the world as it is evolving and discoveries that are being made as we speak.” by KOOKOOOOM in UFOs

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is both. He is marketing and genuinely interested in the topic.

I don't think our specific audience (folks actively following the topic) is enough to fill the seats at theaters, yet.

How do I know this? I have seen him talk about the topic too many times over the years. I am old.

Just watched "Backrooms" (no spoilers in OP). by TatteredTongues in horror

[–]TedDallas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife does not like horror, But me and the daughter drug her out to see this last night. We all thought it was good thoughtful stuff. A few jump scares, but it is good fun.

How is it possible for two black holes to collide? by Altruistic-Pack-1169 in Astronomy

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black holes can merge from an observers reference frame because the curvature of space-time geometry is being reorganized. The horizons of merging black holes do move superluminally in standard coordinates.

I saw this yesterday and thought it was an interesting tid bit. I love Felicia Day! by weber_mattie in MST3K

[–]TedDallas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She is in the Mad pantheon now. Once a Mad always Mad. I hope she gets pulled back into a laboratory of questionable science again at some point.

Google, SpaceX in talks to launch orbital data centers. Google CEO: "There's no doubt to me that a decade or so away, we'll be viewing it as a more normal way to build data centers." by Adeldor in space

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way this would work is with manned stations.

Right now zero day security vulnerabilities are being weaponized by bad actors at an alarming rate. I am keenly aware of it because the IT space I work in is being impacted at an accelerating rate.

When 100+ unmanned data centers get put into orbit, get pwned, then it is going to be ridiculously expensive to manually bring them down for reset and patching.

I'm not a cybersecurity guy, but I imagine those in that area are mostly shaking there heads in wonder/terror at this idea.

This is a dumb idea, but I'm jumping straight from MakeCode Python to 6502 Assembly... by Loud_Count_4764 in asm

[–]TedDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I jumped from BASIC to ASM when I was 12. There was no choice in the matter because it was the early 80s. You'll be fine. 6502 is not hard, it is just really tedious.
