leverage

I'm having fun with it so far. Weirdly addicting for how shallow it is.

Dokuwiki user here. Your cons are true, but compared to the cons of other ones, they are all solvable. The concern with a plug-in being required to do something is silly. It's open source and the plugin system is limitless. If it's ugly, make a theme. I've never had a problem with article titles being mutilated, but then again, I treat the file name (e.g. the url of the page) separate from the root header as you're supposed to.

Considering your comment about search being awful in another wiki, it's pretty good in Dokuwiki.

Considering how much you care about plain text, you should probably discount the con about file names as I'm pretty sure that's part of why Dokuwiki does what it does. It's an actual text file sitting in a directory that matches the path.

For what it's worth, I admire Obsidian. If it's a personal project with no intent to share, that's what I'd use. For business or public hosting, I'd use (and do use, at my company) Dokuwiki.

Another fun thing from this show is the magic system, which limits the caster's ability based on what they can imagine. Programming feels exactly like that to me. I mean, a lot of human ability is limited by that, but most stuff is also limited by physical constraints long before imagination. With programming, we more often hit the limit of our imagination, or time feasibility, before any other constraint.

Working with non programmers, it's always wild to field their unimaginative solutions, and refreshing when someone actually had a good idea.

Working with less experienced programmers, it's fun to help them through problems. So often they hit a wall they can't imagine walking through, take some concession and build around the wall. You can appreciate the work, and then show them the simple solution to walk through the wall. If they have talent, they grow quick.

Working with a much more experienced programmer, or in a domain you don't have much experience with, helps keep you humble because there's no way you're going to learn everything.

Anyway, back to writing my spells.

Valid reason is you want the online features because messages from other players is content. Counterpoint is, pvp is also content. Counterpoint is, people can want one and not the other, and it's not that complicated to just give people a toggle. Elden Ring is not worse because of its improvement over the DS invasion system.

I've seen one interpretation of our fire code result in each enclosed stall requiring their own flashing light and siren. So the expense to build really does add up. Every contractor knows how to do it the cheap way, anything else they charge a much higher rate to make it worth the trouble. Maybe some shit related to sex or drug use in bathrooms as well, I'd imagine the more secure it feels the more likely someone might see that as a safe thing to try, not saying that's a real thing but shit gets talked about on the news enough for it to be something the decision maker has in their head to be influenced one way.

Going to try to convert two 2-post racks into a 4-post rack today. Dreading the mess though.

Maybe the prompt said some shit about making sure you couldn't see that it's AI, or hide that it's AI. There remains to be an issue that prompting it not to generate something increases the chances that it will do that.

I'm confused, toner = laser. Toner is the media, it's fine powder, applied to the paper via the drum and flash fused via a laser. Inkjet, liquid ink is the media, sprayed through a nozzle while moving back and forth.

Unless something about inkjet has improved in the 15 years since I was more inclined to know everything about them, the "goes bad" is what anyone with a brain should be focusing on. The first time you use a cartridge to print, it has a shelf life. It gunks up, prompting cleaning cycles that use dozens of pages worth of ink. If you only print a few pages a month, there's a good chance you're getting <40 pages out of that $63 cartridge.

I have a Brother DCP-7065DN, paid $64 for it in Feb 2014 (obviously a very good deal), page counter reads 3626. We're on toner #3 including the starter, first was replaced in 2019, second in July 2025. Toner was $55 each.

I hope there aren't people seriously advocating for inkjet printers for black and white anything. The only thing they are good for is photos, and even then you are paying more per print for a worse photo vs local print or online order options. That holds true even if you get good deals and somehow actually use the entire cartridge set without waste, I did the math a few times over the years. The only use cases are printing shit you're too embarrassed to risk printer shop seeing, or is illegal/copyright, or you just like giving money to these garbage companies.

Maybe projects like this will change the math. I think if they targeted commercial print specifications it would be quite interesting. The jump to larger format printers is so expensive.

Ah, thank you and sorry, I should have just searched before posting.

Part of the issue is the quotes from Facebook rep saying they only do this with public posts, makes me wonder if its user error, platform lying, a bug, etc. but fuck all that. Any situation like this is strictly the platform's fault, idc if the mother is mistaken and actually posted it publicly, if that's possible then it's bad design. Invest more in UX and less in user manipulation. If a parent was intentionally whoring out their children, we'd expect the platform to prevent that, not enable it.

I'm not trying to defend Meta, but where in the article does it say that private posts were shared publicly? I'm only seeing that public posts made by adults were used this way. The main rub is Facebook being accused of intentionally serving these publicly posted photos of children in school uniforms (by parents) as bait to join another one of their platforms. Like, a grown man was sent multiple advertisements where this was the exact content, no back to school pictures of young men, or any other type of photo. That they sexualized children algorithmically to bait men into using Threads, and are justifying it's ok because the parents shared the photo publicly and didn't opt out of the advertising settings (which seem to be a way to gain followers?).

One of the men was like, I've no idea why they keep sending me these pictures, I don't engage with them. That might be an even more interesting story, because either Facebook is trying to offer sexualized children to uninterested men, or they know exactly which men are interested in sexualized children and instead of using it to push intervention ads, ban them from seeing the content their AI can definitely classify as enticing, or anything else, they use it to try to make more money.
