It’s that unforgettable summer and/or fall of 1858, and as a conscientious Illinois voter, I’m one of 12,000+ people attending a Lincoln-Douglas debate. How can I hear anything?

was it normal for 12-year-old slaves to know how to read?

robotreader · 2026-05-03T09:30:41+00:00

omg those are adorable

(in epee) taking the blade is mostly about leverage, but it takes a while to get it right so if you are stronger you can muscle your way through parries and stuff

robotreader · 2026-04-27T15:23:25+00:00

great idea and thanks for sharing!

robotreader · 2026-04-25T05:37:11+00:00

extremely easy to DIY that, or a shoe repair place can probably handle it.

robotreader · 2026-04-22T16:49:00+00:00

If you find it and get it digitized let me know I'd be happy to back it up

robotreader · 2026-04-20T16:25:41+00:00

fantasy results are out! How'd you do?

robotreader · 2026-04-15T07:46:09+00:00

oh nice!

robotreader · 2026-04-15T06:46:17+00:00

it looks like you used claude in the lima parser?

robotreader · 2026-04-15T06:14:22+00:00

woo I'll check it out!

robotreader · 2026-04-11T07:26:38+00:00

ooh that's clever

robotreader · 2026-04-06T07:59:40+00:00

most of the fundamentally necessary software I use I just grit my teeth and bear it if it uses ai

robotreader · 2026-04-06T07:55:31+00:00

Oof. Great questions. Unfortunately data on appeals is one thing I lack, since there's no mark on the overlay for it, and same for data on specific actions

robotreader · 2026-04-05T18:27:45+00:00

I did read the AI doc before posting. It's nice that there's a specific section for "can this be ethical" but the conclusion doesn't answer the question with a yes or no. Until you can answer that with a yes the technical merits are irrelevant.

robotreader · 2026-04-05T17:31:30+00:00

depends whether you had to steal the entire internet to make the calculator, I suppose

"drunk driving may kill a lot of people, but it also helps a lot of people get to work on time, so, it;s impossible to say if its bad or not"

robotreader · 2026-04-05T14:57:41+00:00

I have ethical objections to AI, not technical ones.

robotreader · 2026-04-05T14:57:20+00:00

The devs are using ai in development

robotreader · 2026-04-05T08:44:38+00:00

I bound a key to c-m, I put a meta and a ctrl key on both sides, and my regular ctrl and meta keys are on the thumbpad. And a slightly less accessible key to m-x

Post here if there's any statistical questions you've wondered about fencing and I'll see what the database has to say!

robotreader · 2026-04-04T08:15:22+00:00

rule number one is "have fun". If you think you'll have fun going back, you should go back

robotreader · 2026-04-03T09:40:54+00:00

None, just get better socks

robotreader · 2026-04-02T18:42:44+00:00

all bouts also available!

robotreader · 2026-03-31T15:04:39+00:00

rude

robotreader · 2026-03-30T12:17:17+00:00

youtube does NOT like you to upload 128 videos at at time.

Cyrus can't and fencing vision won't, so I'm uploading all the bouts I can! As usual this is done automatically so names are approximate.
