I was curious too, so I went to the Wikipedia page:

The goal is to attain liberation in the body, by sealing in the energy of bindu in the head so that it is not lost.

Haṭha yoga is a branch of the largely spiritual practice of yoga, though it makes use of physical techniques; it was developed in medieval times, much later than the meditative and devotional forms of yoga. Its goals however are similar: siddhis or magical powers, and mukti, liberation. In Haṭha yoga, liberation was often supposed to be attainable in the body, made immortal through the practices of Haṭha yoga. Among its techniques were mudrās, meant to seal in or control energies such as kundalini and bindu. Khecarī mudrā is one such technique.

tl;dr - A spiritual practice of yoga in Hindu metaphysics.

Yeah, they look like they're upside down, what the hell. lmao

According to the former X insider, the company has experimented with AI moderation. And Musk’s latest push into artificial intelligence technology through X.AI, a one-year old startup that’s developed its own large language model, could provide a valuable resource for the team of human moderators.

An AI system “can tell you in about roughly three seconds for each of those tweets, whether they’re in policy or out of policy, and by the way, they’re at the accuracy levels about 98% whereas with human moderators, no company has better accuracy level than like 65%,” the source said. “You kind of want to see at the same time in parallel what you can do with AI versus just humans and so I think they’re gonna see what that right balance is.”

I don't believe that for one second. I'd believe it, if those numbers were reversed, but anyone who uses LLMs regularly, knows how easy it is to circumvent them.

EDIT: Added the paragraph right before the one I originally posted alone, that specifies that their "AI system" is an LLM.

I can't find the source of this image with the exact same text, but this (Twitter link) looks to be the artist,

I played the demo on Steam yesterday, and had a lot of fun with it. I really look forward to seeing what they come up with in the full release.

I'm so happy that it's getting more normal for studios to release free demos. I've been playing a lot of hours of Aloft too, and I gotta say, it really makes me more interested in buying the game when it comes out, than I otherwise would be.

how is babby formed?

What a super cool idea, and I love the implementation! I do however keep accidentally downvoting, when I want to upvote, and vice versa, since all other sites that I've ever used, display the upvote first, and the downvote second. Any chance of a toggle for that in settings?

A must-have feature for me is the ability to collapse comments on posts. Right now it seems like we can only collapse replies to comments, or put differently, we can only collapse child-comments. Any chance you could make it possible to collapse parent comments too?

tbf, it seems like his relationship with animals was really hit or miss:

Diodorus Siculus recorded a story of Menes related by the priests of the crocodile god Sobek at Crocodilopolis, in which the pharaoh Menes, attacked by his own dogs while out hunting fled across Lake Moeris on the back of a crocodile and, in thanks, founded the city of Crocodilopolis.

As an extra PS to anyone reading this, this is also possible on Chromium browsers, should you use that instead.

Edit: Just for those notorious for not reading the article ;)

For me, working from home, it's: Tired of looking at bad program, can't wait to close it and look at good program. Although I think a lot of people working in-office feel that one too, lmao.

Image search led me to Knowyourmeme, which luckily had the source listed for the artist's Twitter.

I had no idea that it was a Dutch app! It's really great, I've been using it on and off for a year now to great success.

taskylizard quoted this post 8 hours ago, from nullishcat, which explains a bit more.

The too lazy, didn't click the link copy/paste:

  • .ml domains (the one fmhy.ml was on) has been reclaimed by the Mali government
  • Freenom is also being sued by Meta (and has been for the past few months)
  • Both of these have resulted in fmhy, along with a lot of other domains, to be unresolvable
  • Changing domains will cause us to have to refederate and start mostly from scratch (although we might be able to transfer posts and users)

It doesn't. But then, blocking someone on Discord doesn't even entirely remove their messages from chat. It will just collapse their messages.

At this point, I just can't do without Stacks, Tile view, Sessions and Work Spaces. The build-in Periodic Reload is also great, but by far, the most incredible feature is that you can customize your right-click menues however you like. I also have a lot of Command Chains set up in the Quick Command bar.

The amount of stuff that you can customize in Vivaldi has been without parallel for me.

That sounds absolutely amazing. Especially this:

just the right kind of cold where my fingers don't get numb, and my face gets and stays chilly the whole time.

You put that into words so well. I love that sensation. And the cool, fresh air, when you take a deep breath.

I think Shakey Graves is good, but I think Steel Beans encompasses one-man band even better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=louAX5OPPtI

His original stuff is cool too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFJJ-aYsGl4

You're an absolute champ! Wishing you all the best with this project going forward, and I look forward to using it more :)

I'm going off of the article, where they state that it's an LLM. It's the paragraph right before the one I originally posted:

EDIT: I will include it in the original comment for clarity, for those who don't read the article.

Don't know if you're looking for desktop software specifically, but back in the day I used Medisafe on my phone, and that would definitely be my first port of call, if I had to start keeping track of that stuff again.

I really loved Interview with the Vampire, so I was very excited for Mayfair Witches. But wow, those two are very different shows in tone, pacing and dialogue. It was very hard for me to get through Mayfair Witches, and I only finished it, hoping I'd end up liking it in the end. But I won't be tuning back in for season 2, that's for sure.

To be fair, I've never read the books. I have only ever read the Vampire Chronicles. So it may just be that I wouldn't care for the books either.

However, in the spirit of this thread - I do want to check out the source material, Lives of the Mayfair Witches at some point. Could be that I'd enjoy it, even if I didn't like the show.

I took a look through my power toys settings, but couldn't find anything there that had to do with the win+v clipboard history. Google hasn't been any help either. What is it that I'm overlooking? How does powertoys improve the clipboard history feature?

The Clipboard History is indeed a part of Windows 10. But I was wondering how PowerToys enhanced the functionality of it.

This sounds really interesting! Can you post an imdb link? I'm only able to find an American show by that name, and it also has technology themes, so it's making it hard to find anything else.

EDIT: Oh! It is this show, I just misunderstood your reply to ApathyTree, about it only being legally available in Australia and New Zealand. Thanks for the recommendation :)

That sounds really cool! Is a keyboard like that called something in particular? I'd love to hear which one you got.
