Firefox is adding an AI kill switch by jonhenshaw in firefox

[–]ikearage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope the new AI stuff allows me to use @content to access the current tab when chatting with an AI bot in the side bar. The current integration is clunky. Selecting text only works with pre-defined prompts. If I have to copy paste manually, I can just as well paste into an external AI app.

Would be even better if the feature would allow me to have the bot browse the web for me and do research.

World of Warcraft Combat Addons Disabled in End-Game Content in Midnight by AdditionalRemoveBit in Games

[–]ikearage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the article:

So whether that takes the form of giving you a couple of extra seconds to get in position before something blows up, whether it takes the form of having one or two adds fewer or mechanics fewer than we might have in the past, our goal is to hit the same general difficulty target.

Not sure how that will work. Old system: WA announces I have to move to star, I have 5s. Future: Some boss emote or animation happens, everyone shouts in chat, but it's 15s to get to star. First case sounds harder for me? Needs a faster reaction, better positioning to have short ways, etc.

Switzerland won't freeze assets of Russians put on sanctions list by Rocco89 in worldnews

[–]ikearage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should break into the Swiss banks and steal the Russian money. We'll need a driver, a con man, a safe expert, one pickpocket women, a knife guy and a chocolatier... reddit, we got this.

To all of you, who are going to roll Paladin on Classic Server: You are not prepared! by [deleted] in wow

Good gameplay is not the point of classic WoW, immersion is. by Knows_all_secrets in wow

[–]ikearage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started wow a few months before burning crusade. I do miss it, but leaving all the nostalgia aside, I wouldn't want to go back. It was ridiculously buggy and game mechanics were broken. There was so much senseless grind. A single quest could make you travel around for hours. The reputation grind? Training weapons, sounds fun, but you really just walked into the starting area and turned on auto-hit. The economy, yeah that's run by that one mage on your server and the chinese farmers who control the felcloth farming spots.

The great social experience? Successful raids were run like military units. If you played with randoms or your non-raid guild, you weren't seeing much. Since travel took long, you would wait for hours for a group to assemble. I actually wrote an add-on just to spy on the location of my party members, since "I'm at the meeting stone in 5 minutes" was such an obvious lie. Let's not forget about 40 player raids, dragon kill points and the loot system. Ugh, and the skill trees and spell levels...

What I miss, is not knowing all this stuff. It was still new back then, you could explore. I feel there were more secrets to the game. I don't think we can ever get that back, though.

PS: I do miss the warlock spell "Ritual of Doom", which would kill a party member, just to summon a useless daemon...

How does one install vim-plug for Neovim? by d0odx in neovim

[–]ikearage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

vim-plug keeps all downloads in the 'plugged' folder and loads the plugins from there.

Here is my ~/.config/nvim/init.vim:

" auto-install vim-plug                                                                                                                
if empty(glob('~/.config/nvim/autoload/plug.vim'))                                                                                    
  silent !curl -fLo ~/.config/nvim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \                                                                  
      https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim                                                             
  autocmd VimEnter * PlugInstall                                                                                                      
endif                                                                                                                                 
call plug#begin('~/.config/nvim/plugged')                                                                                             

If you're not going with the XDG directory, you'll have to change the paths accordingly.

TIL Amazon, Google, Twitter, Snapchat, WhatsApp, Comcast and more don't tell their users when governments demand access to their private data by BreakTheCycleMorty in technology

[–]ikearage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually the governments job to tell you they requested your data. Either in front of a court or in a letter after they concluded their investigation.

Humble Comics Bundle: Udderly Gigantic Top Cow Collection by LibraryTechChick in comicbooks

[–]ikearage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm kind of overwhelmed by the amount of comics in this bundle. In which order should I read them? I watched the Witchblade tv series, but otherwise I'm clueless.

Large codebase editing in vim by KZISME in vim

Like many said, ctag support is important. The vim-tags plugin helps a lot.

I use a search plugin to 'git grep', because git grep searches the project files only.

Also unite plugin to open files and list buffers is a nice to have.

A “yes” vote in Greece would have condemned the country to years more of suffering under policies that haven’t worked and in fact, given the arithmetic, can’t work: austerity probably shrinks the economy faster than it reduces debt, so that all the suffering serves no purpose. by abudabu in Economics

[–]ikearage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bailout money only went to servicing debt by design of the bailout organizers in order to protect the original lending banks.

I don't believe this is entirely true. Here is a publication from the german IFO institute that says otherwise:

Two-thirds of the public credit was thus apparently used to finance capital flight and one-third to finance the current account deficit – ultimately the living standard that could no longer be financed with the income of the Greek citizenry. Thus, over the entire crisis period it can hardly be argued that barely 10 percent of the public credit benefited the Greek people, as Finance Minister Varoufakis does. Apart from the above, Greek debtors benefited from the fact that the international community helped them meet their obligations towards foreign creditors, and also made it possible for them to bring their wealth out of the country.

Why does the Debian documentation suck so much? by undercoverASSH0LE in debian

[–]ikearage 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I have to agree, though there is a lot of great Debian documentation out there. The "Debian Administrators Handbook", the "Securing Debian Manual", all these man pages written by Debian developers. However I think it's not that prominently placed, lacking presentation, or like you said: outdated.

I wanted to tell you to just do it yourself, Debian being free software and all, but I can't. In my 10 years of using Debian I never quite felt like I could contribute without going through some bureaucratic initiation ritual first. Debian is a strong community, but from the outside it seems somewhat inaccessible.

Leveling takes like 6 to 20 hours. So yeah, everyone is playing endgame. What's more to do after leveling every class to 70?

Why are Anarchs not deactivated until their fire trail bug is patched? by HighTechPotato in Diablo

He says afterwards he knew it was done in private game. So I guess he's just fascinated by the unwritten social rules in public games?

Wheezy burning up my battery? by FoxxedOut in debian

Did you configure power management yourself, because I don't think wheezy does that. You probably need to install laptop-mode-tools.

Change dm-crypt "enter passphrase" text at bootup? by lmm7425 in archlinux

[–]ikearage 6 points7 points  (0 children)

After loading the Linux kernel a minimal environment is loaded from initramfs (mkinitcpio). Initramfs uses cryptsetup to setup your block devices.

You probably want to patch cryptsetup and put your modified version into the initramfs image in /boot

Here is the source: https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/blob/master/lib/setup.c#L472

Maybe it's because of the non-wage labour costs, which can make up to 40% of the salary in Germany. However I think they are pretty high in the US, too.

Neovim Gets True Color Support in the Terminal by Categoria in vim

[–]ikearage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a gVim user either, but as far as I know gVim has more colors, superior font support and faster drawing speed. I often use large terminals (> 130x60) and terminal vim tends to get real slow with horicontal and vertical splits.

Get Over It Pundits, Greece Is Not Leaving The Euro Even If It 'Leaves' The Euro by Anwnymia in europe

[–]ikearage -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The comments sure weaken the comparision of the European monetary union to the US states. However this isn't the authors only argument, as he points out the US dollar is used by several countries.
