Not a red rose or a satin heart.

I give you an onion.
It is a moon wrapped in brown paper.
It promises light
like the careful undressing of love.

Here.
It will blind you with tears
like a lover.
It will make your reflection
a wobbling photo of grief.

I am trying to be truthful.

Not a cute card or a kissogram.

I give you an onion.
Its fierce kiss will stay on your lips,
possessive and faithful
as we are,
for as long as we are.

Take it.
Its platinum loops shrink to a wedding ring,
if you like.
Lethal.
Its scent will cling to your fingers,
cling to your knife.

You can exclude tags by going to your Store Settings page and scrolling down to “Tags to Exclude.” You can only exclude up to 10, and this only works for games that are actually tagged with the word. It doesn’t exclude keywords in the description. I don’t know how many games are actually tagged with “dystopian.” I get 3195 results when I search for the “Dystopian” tag, so at least you can exclude those.

This works best for genre types.

The story that this 260K parameter model generated (in the screenshot of their report):

Sleepy Joe said: “Hello, Spot. Do you want to be careful with me?” Spot told Spot, “Yes, I will step back!”
Spot replied, “I lost my broken broke in my cold rock. It is okay, you can’t.” Spoon and Spot went to the top of the rock and pulled his broken rock. Spot was sad because he was not l

It’s still impressive that they got it running. I look forward to seeing if their BitNet architecture produces better results on the same hardware.

I’m always dismayed but not surprised by how many people don’t know about Windows Platform Binary Table, which has existed since Windows 8. It’s not exactly the type of feature that Microsoft or the board vendors would want to publicize, seeing as it gives them persistent rootkit capabilities on the same level as UEFI rootkits.

Most normal people’s model of Windows security is “if something goes wrong then I wipe the disk and reinstall Windows,” and WPBT completely breaks that model, and has been doing so for 12 years.

Thankfully there are ways to disable it:

are you being deliberately obtuse or do you expect other people to do everything for you?

no body shaming please

I stated the version number (17.10), the release notes are here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtfulAardvark/ReleaseNotes

With Wayland there was time to work on a lot of the kinks before everyone started seriously switching.

Not if you were using Ubuntu in 2017 when they switched to Weston as the default display server for 17.10 and lots of people suffered a great deal from how half-baked the project was at the time. For me personally, the 17.10 upgrade failed to start the display server and I ended up reinstalling completely, then in 18.04 they set the default back to XOrg and that upgrade also failed for me, resulting in another reinstall.

I have no doubt that this single decision was responsible for a large amount of the Wayland scepticism that followed.
