You'll Never Be a Boat - Scam Awareness (Atomic Shrimp on Youtube)

This video from a favourite youtuber of mine, Atomic Shrimp, has a cavalcade of AI slop video used to advertise a scam. It's worth pointing out that scams often use AI slop - after all, the people running the scam want the minimal amount of effort in.

Regex gold: " " sentences

This is using PCRE.

Looking to create an expression that captures, for example:

>"Test", she says. "Yes that works."

Where we capture, "Test" and "That works" as separate groups, but not the outside of the whole phrase.

It also needs to capture simply

>"Test," she says.

It's a very common regex golf I'm sure, but google was utterly unhelpful.

Any ideas?

Thought I'd share something on the more positive side.

There's a growing movement of people who want to escape the automation, AI, and general enshittification of life. People often act like LLM takeover is inevitable, but I really don't think it is. Fix old things, touch some grass, talk to some actual people. The real world's still out there.

These Books Will KILL YOU - Hands on Review of AI-Generated Garbage Books by Atomic Shrimp on Youtube

From the description:

"I've been hearing for a while about these AI-generated scam foraging books being sold on Amazon, so I decided to get a couple for a hands-on review. Also this video discusses how to find and choose a good field or foraging guide."

There's a whole trend of LLM-generated books flooding Amazon right now, but foraging for wild food that might kill you is especially hazardous - Atomic Shrimp points out quite a few ways these books could result in foraging mishaps quite eloquently.

[Desktop Web] Notifications include non-localized text

Been using norsk and suomi localisations to practice those languages lately, and the suomi post I replied to reminded me of this localisation miss.

The X replied to your comment and similar strings do not appear in the localized language in at least norsk, dansk, and suomi.

Marked as Desktop Web but may be present in other platforms dependent on how you do il8n internally.

"We only have drives for the AI slop"

tldw: Louis Rossman had a four terabyte Samsung Pro SSD that failed, and they say they don't have stock to warranty it. They have all kinds of stock available for sale on the web if you want to pay the AI datacenter markup though! So yeah, they're screwing people on warranties because they'd rather exploit AI datacenters instead.

[Desktop Web] Automoderator history not correctly showing user

In at least mod tools on desktop, though I suspect it's also the case on alternative platforms, the edit history of the Automoderator config page has a display error, it displays the users not as the correct user names, but as u/[deleted]

This does not properly establish auditing trails of whom edited what when, for reasons that are probably obvious.

This is the case both with and without my extensions enabled and is likely a backend retrieval issue.

So good I put it in my subs!

This one's also incredibly obvious, so I didn't deface it.

When you see it, you cant unsee it. It was closer than most, too.

That's not how it works, AI

Shared by my partner and I knew I had to post it. I don't do electrical or comms anymore, but unless something changed when I wasn't looking, its definitely not how that works.

Question about renter insurance obligations

I am asking this on behalf of a friend who doesn't want to chance the landlord seeing them asking about this and giving reprisal against them.

A friend of mine has lived in a rental property for several years now. During that time they have paid rent dutifully except for a couple exceptional circumstances (furlough during covid, but even then they attempted to pay to the best of their ability.)

Material to their current situation is the fact that they have always maintained tenant insurance on the property with no lapses in coverage.

Recently the landlord has pressured them to include them as a named person on the tenant insurance for the property. They are not living on the property - they do not live in the same city even - and this strikes us as unusual.

There are a few questions here:

1] Is it usual for the landlord to be named as a party on tenant insurance?

2] When the previously-held insurance is fulfilling the obligations for tenant insurance under the Landlord and Tenant's Board's Standard Form of Lease as signed by them and landlord, can the landlord legally force them to modify their insurance in this way?

3] If the answer to 2 is no, what recourse does the renter have if the Landlord attempts to force this?

Trying to set up an external git diff tool

Hi there,

I'm trying to set up an external git tool (winmerge) as I have a lot of images I want to track for my hobby project and this tool supports it.

The suggested setup is to put the following in my .gitconfig:

[diff]
    tool = winmerge
[difftool]
    prompt = false
[difftool "winmerge"]
    cmd = "'C:/Program Files/WinMerge/WinMergeU.exe'" -e "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE"
[guitool "difftool"]
cmd = git difftool $FILENAME
noconsole = yes
needsfile = yes

If you're using git a lot you might have already spotted the problem - $FILENAME will only work if it is in the root directory of the repository. I spent some time looking through the documentation, but I couldn't find an answer - is there a way to pass the entire path in the repository?

As an example, I can read README.md in root path fine, but a test of a/b/TEST.md does not launch the tool correctly.

It strikes me that its kind of utterly useless if difftool only works in a flat directory structure, so there's gotta be a way to accomplish this, but I wasn't finding it.
