“OpenAI could be on the brink of bankruptcy in under 12 months, with projections of $5 billion in losses.”

so this app has been long for a good decade -
the Asus Surf 4G (and many other netbooks) use interesting resolutions like 800x480, and do not offer normal 4:3 resolutions like 640x480 via their winXP display driver
that means games like Thief or Doom 3 or Half-Life won't fit on the screen in windowed or full screen modes
this is where Netbook Resolution Customizer comes in. it lets you set custom resolutions so older win9x games can use the resolutions they expect
dredged this application out of a bunch of old EeePC forums that went defunct 10 years ago, and uploaded to IA:

“when neurodivergent people mask their natural tendencies to fit in with neurotypical people or get through a situation, it requires more effort than it would for someone without autism or ADHD”

If you’re on mental health TikTok, you’ve probably come across "masking." Here’s what it means and the mental health consequences.Wondermind
I really like theses results:
"Recent findings show adult New Zealanders who do not speak te reo Māori (the Māori language, the indigenous language of New Zealand) nonetheless have impressive implicit lexical and phonotactic knowledge of the language. (…)
Our results show that ambient exposure leads to implicit knowledge both in childhood and adulthood, and that continuing exposure throughout the lifespan leads to increased knowledge."

#mountains fascinate me, especially the #alps. I just get all relaxed and happy when I'm walking around. The ruggedness and the feeling of being the first person walking there is what gets to me. Also the history of the places. These mountains have been there for so long, and there has happend so much. Just imagining what it must have been for the pre-historic people to walk, hunt and live there is awesome.

"OK folks! Now it's time to write the spec for USB C extension cables and USB C to A adapters. Thoughts?"
"What if we just don't standardise those? We just say in the spec that they're disallowed."
"But extension cables are pretty essential, sometimes there's no alternative. People are going to make them whether they're allowed by the spec or not. So won't every company that makes one do it a bit differently, and they'll all be broken in slightly different ways?"
"Yes, exactly."
"Great, done. What's next?"

Some users were outraged to learn this was opt-out, not opt-in.
Referring to distances and weights in kibimeters and kibigrams just to confuse everyone
POSTSCRIPT: After typing this, I suddenly wondered if anyone had ever had this thought before. I searched on Google for "kibigram" to see if I could find an example of someone using the word. I did. It was @foone
A very rad cat, spreading joy especially for those who may recognize him.
