Damnit, back in the cage with you!

It has TWO locks this time, asshole!

I wish I was kidding too.

Its only been getting worse as this post conference pressser has gone on.

He has forgotten entirely to respond to parts of a multipart question, meandered into basically ‘I sat down with Golda Meir and Yitsak Rabin and we accomplished peace!’, just keeps repeating things he did (some of which are legitimate accomplishments) that have little to do with the questions asked…

… “You said your presidency would be a bridge to younger candidates, what happened to that?”

Rambles about being in the Senate a really long time

… at one point he actually said, outloud, ‘How do I not make this seem self centered?’ before answering a ‘Considering the stakes, do you really think you should run?’ type of question.

In the time I have been typing this he has basically barked in anger after a short response to a question that was followed by the reporter asking ‘thats all?’.

He also keeps doing the sort of asshole loud whisper sarcasm voice.

He is coming off as a sundowning angry old man who doesn’t want his car keys taken away.

If I were a Trump supporter, I’d be making a meme of Trump as Bob Page from the DX intro bemoaning ‘old men’ playing at running the world.

See, it wouldn’t click with the MAGA crowd that Page is the bad guy, so they would think it was funny.

Well I guess all I can say is what a shame.

He was just asked about his confidence in Kamala to be able to beat Trump, should he be succeeded(sp?)… and he referred to Trump as his VP and then meandered into some vague talking points.

KEEP CALM AND REMAIN STILL

Presumably, the individual themself is transitioning sexes while they are also transitioning tables of one format to another, maybe from T SQL to PostGres, who knows, could be tables in any kind of language.

I have no experience with the software involved in that, but I do know that generally, anything connected to a POS system probably should not be connected to a publicly accessible… anything.

Does this software even have APIs to do something like that?

Or could you just point a webcam at a screen or portion of a screen that the default software indicates open tab count on lol?

Well dang, I did not know that.

Thank you for correcting me!

Nice!

I think you’re correct, but wouldn’t this only work if you are running either android, or google maps, and have location on?

Its accurate enough but still an estimate, is the point i am getting at.

Conceivably a webcam + opencv headcount would be more precise, if the cameras covered the whole space and could account for viewing the same person from a different angle.

Its like how google can give you an estimate of bus times, but if there is a local city app that specifically interfaces directly with the actually city busses, it’ll be more accurate.

They could very easily just implement some rudimentary person identification algos and output only a headcount.

Pretty sure you can do that with OpenCV.

All things are possible through Christ lol

Ya’ll need God.

Posting this from TempleOS

I’ve found Krita to be a less clumsy way to edit images than GIMP, been using it that way for years.

Yes, GIMP is powerful when used correctly, but Krita is far closer to Photoshop in terms of UI and out of the box features.

Obligatory: Do people not know that Krita exists?

This would happen in a just world.

It won’t though.

Reminds me of the recent millionaire guy who got lambasted on YT (i think his actual posts were on TikTok?).

Guys, I am going to lock up my money, my phone have no contacts and go to a new city and start from nothing and earn a million dollars in 30 or 90 days or something.

Whoah big surprise, a few weeks in he has to call the whole thing off for health reasons.

OMG he got robbed? Lost his paper work and thus couldn’t get the right aid? The shelters are full? Sleeping outside in a city is extremely dangerous and unhealthy? Your hygiene suffers? No one talks to you or treats you like a human being?

In a just world we’d put the income tax levels back to around FDR levels and thus be able to actually fund social programs and eliminate a great deal of the wealthy’s massive over representation in politics.

Instead it looks like we will be making a b-line toward theocratic corporatocracy.

Blargh.

Edit: Income and Corporate tax levels.

I so very hope this idiot asshole winds up either jailed and/or has his wealth severely diminished and most of his businesses fail from being unable to repay loans / convicted of fraud.

He’s the closest person on earth to becoming Horatio from the Endless series, yet he’s also basically a badly written Bond villain.

What a pos.

I have had multiple people in my life tell me that it is irresponsible to not have my phone on, 24/7, in case they need to message me about something.

These are the same people who get angry anytime I message them and they are busy, but also get angry if I am busy and don’t immediately reply to them.

I’ve been woken up so many times at 2 am…

At least in my life, its quite common for people to be hypocritical douchebags.

3d spatial sound always gets me.

Seems like it literally never ends, claiming to have some kind of new tech that revolutionizes 3d sound for either music or games.

Reality is almost nobody even today releases music in 5.1 or 7.1 format, and 3d spatial sound via software for headphones has existed since like 2002.

The Xbox Game Bar certainly is not new to 11… They just made it more of a system component than a program.

MSFT Accounts aren’t new, OneDrive isn’t new…

Also, after the gigantic kerfuffle caused by TPM requirement for Win 11, they are now apparentlty dropping it as a requirement?

So fucking glad I don’t work for MSFT anymore.
