Cooking at home vs eating out vs delivery: what’s your situation?
My boyfriend (20) and I (18) have been living together for 2 years in an urban apartment. For us, it usually goes like this:
- Delivery
- Eating out
- Cooking at home
We visit our parents (and they visit us) often, and they give us lots of home-cooked food. We mostly cook at home just for fun.
I’m curious what it’s like for other people, especially in different age groups or family setups!

Twitch launches anti-bot crackdown and viewership numbers plummet across the platform overnight: Turns out 50% of the audience was just robots pretending to enjoy hot tub streams.
- Twitch's new anti-bot system caused viewer counts to nosedive across hundreds of channels, with some losing over half their displayed audience.
- Channels running 24/7 reruns saw the biggest drops, with Mira falling from 2,000+ to under 200 viewers overnight.
- The cleanup affects sponsorship deals and ad rates since brands have been paying premium prices for audiences that were partially fake.

OpenMower: Let's upgrade cheap off-the-shelf robotic mowers to modern, smart RTK GPS based lawn mowing robots!

Let's be honest: The current generation of robotic lawn mowers sucks. Basically all of these bots drive in a random direction until they hit the border of the lawn, rotate for a randomized duration and repeat. I think we can do better!Therefore, we have disassembled the cheapest off-the-shelf robotic mower we could find (YardForce Classic 500) and were surprised that the hardware itself is actually quite decent:
- Geared sensored brushless motors for the wheels
- A sensored brushless motor for the mower motor itself
- The whole construction seems robust, waterproof and all in all thought through
- All components are connected using standard connectors, therefore upgrading the hardware is easily possible.The bottom line is: The bot itself is surprisingly high quality and doesn't need to be changed at all. We just need some better software in there.

clanker youtubici rompono la quiete in modo sempre più metallico
È semplicemente da non credere che sono ormai anni e anni (e ho perso il conto di quanti) che su YouTube c’è il problema degli spammer e, anziché migliorare peggiora sempre di più! #YouTube è un’impresa che si regge interamente su un datamining inquantificabilmente grosso — per i video consigliati, per controllare che i video caricati non violino i ToS, per servire le pubblicità figuriamoci… — ma quegli scemi che ci lavorano non saranno capaci di contrastare commenti di spam che si vede lontano un miglio sono spam! (E poi, intanto, i commenti legittimi vengono rimossi per errore; Louis Rossman si lamenta continuamente di ciò, e vorrei ben vedere altrimenti.) 😵💫La cosa peggiore è che ormai, negli ultimi mesi, questi clanker sono diventati persino aggressivi! Mazonna ragassi, prima l’approccio di questi affari era solo o completamente distaccato dal video, facendo off-topic totale per veicolare il proprio messaggio, o falsamente positivo, quando profili con la foto di un culo di fuori (e qualche volta anche altro, in una maniera che sarebbe violazione delle norme della community se fotogrammi del genere fossero all’interno di video, ma le regole sono scritte a cazzo e quindi per le foto profilo non vale) scrivono (in un italiano rotto e palesemente tradotto a macchina da un’altra lingua) semplicemente complimentando il video in modo irrealistico… Adesso, invece, puntano sull’offendere il creatore del video preso di mira o i suoi fan, insinuando che i propri video sarebbero meglio, cosa che dimostra (negli umani marci che li hanno programmati e/o ordinati) una estrema mancanza di rispetto e un ego largo quanto una fottuta mongolfiera… 💔
Ma dove cazzo andremo a finire??? Questo l’ho beccato addirittura sotto un video di Kurzgesagt ieri (ora sembra essere sparito), e ha il coraggio di dire “I video che posto sono molto meglio di quelli di Kurzgesagt, Kurzgesagt non può essere comparato a me [e lo dice immediatamente dopo aver fatto esso stesso un paragone; porca puttana, impara a usare la lingua umana oppure taci!], io sono molto meglio“… E potrei capire critiche politiche a Kurzgesagt, ce ne sarebbero molte da fare riguardo il conflitto di interessi, ma sminuirne la qualità è completamente disonesto intellettualmente e non trova alcun riscontro nella realtà! 🥴
Di questo esempio qui (ma ce ne sarebbero tanti altri), già la foto profilo palesemente generata con IA dice tutto, ma aprendo il canale la situazione peggiora. Si vede innanzitutto un video interamente generato dall’intelligenza artificiale (lo si nota dalla copertina, e dal guardare i primi 2 secondi; non di più, altrimenti verrebbe contata la visualizzazione), che da contesto + titolo si deduce chiaramente essere privo di senso (quale valore intrinseco può mai avere un video “primo video sul canale!!!” creato da un’IA generativa, cioè un video dal senso unicamente personale creato da qualcosa che non è una persona?)… ma c’è di mezzo pure un trucchetto tecnico che ha colto persino me alla sprovvista. Il canale che ha caricato il video, che in qualche modo ha pure superato i 20mila iscritti (poveri noi…), non è lo stesso che ha spammato con il commento, che è invece palesemente usa e getta… il video è fissato sul profilo, altrimenti vuoto, usando una playlist dal nome cortissimo, che non si nota. 🤯Ormai siamo a livelli esagerati: sfruttando il fatto che i coglioni che gestiscono questa piattaforma hanno ormai da anni eliminato tutta la moderazione umana, ritenendo erroneamente che si possa delegare tutto all’intelligenza artificiale, questi spammer mettono in atto trucchetti così beceri come separare il canale effettivo da uno usato per spammare; così, se quest’ultimo viene fatto fuori (non si sa come, visto che il tasto segnala per i commenti è a tutti gli effetti finto; se l’intelligenza artificiale deve bloccare un commento lo fa solo al momento in cui questo viene inviato), i malintenzionati non hanno perso in realtà niente. Ah, per giunta, ho come il presentimento che il canale su cui stanno i video di merda (che sono una manciata, e partono da quasi un an anno fa) sia in realtà rubato, perché esiste almeno da 3 anni prima… e pubblicava video di cucina… in arabo. 😶
E ancora, sui video merdosi i commenti sono disattivati, perché il rischio che arrivi gente a scrivere la verità è tosto… mentre sui video vecchi, originali, la gente ovviamente ride (ma ci sarebbe da piangere). E questo senza neanche parlare dello schifo che fa per aver caricato un video “I am sick with cancer, pray for me 😭😭“, essendo, appunto, un ammasso di sola ferraglia e non materiale biologico…
Non molti anni fa si diceva “Susan porco**io“ (in inglese “Susan I swear to god“) per inveire contro colei che all’epoca era la CEO di YouTube. Poi lei è morta, e al suo posto arrivò un tizio dal nome evidentemente meno memorabile (non in quest’ordine), e adesso questa cosa non si dice più, ma il problema dello spam continua ad esistere come lo ha sempre fatto e, per l’appunto, forse anche peggio di prima. A onor del vero, quelli che cercavano di truffare includendo numeri di telefono scritti in caratteri unicode nel nome non ne vedo più da un po’… ma, ammesso siano stati davvero bloccati, e non che siano spariti semplicemente perché la tecnica di spam è diventata vecchia, è solo un’ammaccatura al problema e non una soluzione. Quanto stracazzo ODIO Alphabet Inc.!!! 😫#clankers #commenti #comments #spam #spammers #YouTube

in reply to Pro • • •It’s going to be plagiarism so yes, it is.
I’ve asked Copilot at work for word help. I’ll ask out something like, what’s a good word that sounds more professional than some other word? And it’ll give me a few choices and I’ll pick one. But that’s about it.
They’re useful, but I won’t let them do my work for me, or give them anything they can use (we have a corporate policy against that, and yet IT leaves Copilot installed/doesn’t switch to something like Linux).

That said, the AI gives several choices, so it's not choosing anything. Still, point taken.
