[08:28:39] <Ingar> thanks for the voices chromas
[08:29:10] <Ingar> all of a sudden VPS had rebooted
[09:05:41] <Runaway1956> Everything is better with AI.
[09:06:11] <Runaway1956> Now, Microsoft Phone Link is offering to make automatic replies to messages on my phone, using AI "in the cloud"
[09:51:11] <Ingar> my new TV has AI
[09:51:28] <Ingar> TV has never been so difficult to use
[09:51:43] <janrinok> can you disable the AI element?
[09:51:58] <Ingar> I'm not even sure where it is
[09:52:07] <janrinok> lol
[09:52:07] <Ingar> there was aan "AI enhanced sound" option
[09:52:19] <Ingar> and voice commands but I haven't tested that
[09:52:22] <Ingar> maybe I should
[09:52:33] <Ingar> have it reset every time someone says "fuck you tv"
[09:52:41] <janrinok> If it has voice commands it is always listening....
[09:52:55] <Ingar> there's a button
[09:53:10] <janrinok> ... but you cannot be sure what it does.
[09:53:56] <Ingar> lke that phone in my pocket
[09:54:20] <Ingar> janrinok: I don't use that TV, my mom uses it, I jsut pay
[09:54:28] <janrinok> lol
[09:55:00] <Ingar> I tried play some games on it.. too big .. almost surreal
[09:55:20] <Ingar> 4K does look nice though
[09:55:34] <Ingar> (last TV was full HD and died unexpactedly a few weeks)
[09:55:42] <Ingar> +ago
[10:00:25] <chromas> Do people who pronounce route as root call routers rooters?
[10:00:43] <janrinok> yes
[10:01:24] <janrinok> a router is a tool used in woodworking. The electronic device 'roots' the internet to various connections.
[10:02:25] <chromas> Do they root their wood?
[10:03:41] <janrinok> :)
[10:04:31] <chromas> Probably only ootside though
[10:07:00] <chromas> So how's go lang?
[10:07:53] <chromas> Seems like a good language for people who like python but don't want their programs running slower than AIDS
[10:17:39] <janrinok> I am liking it more each day. It requires a different way of thinking about software though.
[10:30:19] <Runaway1956> More of the left eating their own -
[10:30:25] <Runaway1956> https://ground.news
[10:30:26] <systemd> ^ 03'West Wing' star mocks actress Cheryl Hines for staying 'silent' after husband RFK Jr. endorses Trump
[10:30:44] <Runaway1956> Ooops, wrong channel
[14:28:44] <chromas> AI-enhanced sound might be interesting. It could help make Christopher Nolan movies listenable
[14:35:12] <janrinok> that is a bit far fetched ....
[14:48:17] <Ingar> I already have a Bose soundbar that does its own sound magik
[14:48:35] <Ingar> which reminds me
[14:48:43] <Ingar> Fuck you TV makes for omitting analog audio out
[14:48:50] <Ingar> *TV makers
[14:50:33] <fab23> https://switowski.com
[14:50:34] <systemd> ^ 03No "Hello", No "Quick Call", and no Meetings Without an Agenda
[14:52:09] <Ingar> fab23: see the IRC rule "don't ask if you can ask a question but ask the question"
[14:54:22] <fab23> I know, but this one is more for the "modern" work life
[14:54:34] <Ingar> and ofc, me being customer service, the rules are a but differently
[14:54:44] <Ingar> *a bit
[14:54:52] <fab23> sure yes
[14:54:58] <Ingar> the most common problem description is "it doesnt work"
[14:55:16] <fab23> luckily I have only internal customers, so when needed, I will give them now this link :)
[14:55:41] <Ingar> I do have a manager that can use this
[14:55:51] <Ingar> especially the "no meetings without agenda"
