Wake me up when they pass the age verification check from the original, 1987 version of Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards

It's a fork of a Booklore which was closed back in March. Grimmory is the spin-off by a group of the original developers. So while the repo and project are relatively new, the codebase and lineage is not. I've found it to be stable and reliable since I switched from Booklore.

I've been using Grimmory for nearly a year now and it's been great at organising and applying metadata to my poorly organised collection. I dumped all my books into it and let it structure and order the directories. There was a little work to do to verifying the metadata it pulled, but I now have my whole family using it to find and read ebooks.

Its OPDS support also lets me use Moon+ Reader on my phone to browse and read my collection.

Me also, and I can barely afford to run that

The car of the future was supposed to have pulsating LEDs, self-drive, pursuit mode, turbo boost and an reassuringly patronising personality that would scan for threats and tell you what you were doing wrong. I was supposed to have a chest and head of hair like David Hasselhoff and a rich crime-fighting sugar daddy to fund my escapades.

This is off-white nothingness inside. It leaves me cold.

You got me wondering what happened to Tiertex and I was surprised to find that they were still trading as recently as 2021!

Here, you've earned it

Infinite margin! 🫦

Purely for entertainment value, because in reality it would be Orwellian, I'd love to hear a court try and swear in an AI agent and then listen to that agent continually perjure itself in testimony.

How would the court sentence an AI agent? What punishment could it mete out that would make any meaningful sense?

Micron CEO said they expected industry supply to improve gradually in 2028, but couldn't predict when supply would catch up with demand.

Why would they want balanced supply and demand? Scarcity affords them a higher margin for the same output. With so few competitors there currently seems to be little reason for them to try and meet demand.

 
 
 

Dr Cox, is that you?

 

I've had my deck for 2 years now and it's been my main gaming device since the day I got it. I take it on trips and use my 3rd party dock and controller to hook it up to whichever TV is at my location.

My only regret is that this way I'm limited to controller-only games, and I really want to play some of the keyboard + mouse games in my library.

Whichever kb + mouse I buy needs to be as portable and lightweight as possible, but still functional with near full-size keycaps (chiclet keys are ok).

I have a folding Bluetooth keyboard, but the build quality is absolute trash.

Any recommendations will be gratefully added to my research list!
