Halupedia is a Wikipeda-style website that is made up on the spot by AI. (Halupedia)

It does remember articles it has already created - mostly - but it fills them with links to related articles that it may or may not have created, and if you click through to a never before seen page it fills it in for you.

It's a lot like the SCP Project but faster and less coherent and lacking the bits of whimsy and beauty amid the cosmic horror.

Also, don't ask about 1788. We don't talk about 1788.
Can Apple's new MacBook Neo game? No. (Digital Foundry)

Leave aside for the moment the sorry state of gaming on MacOS generally, it has about one third the graphics performance of the iPad Pro. On the CPU side, while the single-threaded performance is quite good, it is so power-constrained that it runs slower than a Ryzen 5 1600 from nine years ago. Great for a phone CPU, but it is what it is.
Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt did not receive a warm welcome when he tried to sell the wonders of AI in his commencement speech at the University of Arizona. (NBC)

7 Also, don't ask about 1788. We don't talk about 1788.

1788 Amulet Dispute was a complex and often acrimonious disagreement primarily centered on the attribution and intended use of a singular artifact, the Amulet of Veridian Transit.

The 1788 Lunar Habitation Dress Code, also known colloquially as the Simpson Directive, was a comprehensive framework governing the attire of personnel within the nascent lunar colonies.

The 1788 Borehamwood Pig Riot was a significant public disturbance that took place in the then-nascent township of Borehamwood. The event, primarily characterized by the widespread and seemingly unprovoked rampaging of domestic swine through the community.

47 Took my video tour yesterday morning of the latest house candidate in Indiana. In many ways it is the best I've seen in my price range. The flooring has all been done, and nicely (though I want to repaint the walls in three rooms). There is an actual partial basement for storage, gas heat and a gas water heater, a front porch, a rear deck, a two-car garage at the end of a small yard. It faces east, too.

On the con side, it's near an elementary school; and it's being sold as-is. The outside trim needs repainting. The front porch railings are both slightly off the horizontal, making me wonder if the house is off as well. And the gutters need either repair or replacement.

I'm afraid I'm close to breaking my rule of no "fixer-uppers" -- though I could move in to this place and be comfortable right away.

And it is a lot bigger life decision than buying a car or anything else I've dealt with since getting married decades ago.

The price is low enough, and my agent suggests I could successfully offer a bit less, that I will easily have the funds for the repainting, trim work, porch railings, etc. The interior, once I have the walls of the bedroom and living-dining room repainted to my taste, is almost ready. There are two windows in the ground floor that are cracked, but it is the outer glass of the double-paned windows, not the inner. And I'll need blinds to start with.

88 Did you know there was another Bill Nye that lived in the 1800s? He had this to say about George Washington:

"In conclusion, let me say that George Washington was successful for three reasons. One was that he never shook the confidence of his friends. Another was that he had a strong will without being a mule. Some people cannot distinguish between being firm and being a big blue jackass.

Another reason why Washington is loved and honored today is that he died before we had a chance to get tired of him. This is greatly superior to the method adopted by many modern statesmen, who wait till their constituency weary of them and then reluctantly and tardily die."

91 Good morning. Happy Monday.
Been ready about Cuba having high grade drones which could attack Guantanamo or Florida. Is this an op by the CIA, Ratliffe went to Cuba, or is Cuba that stupid?

93 I admit that I was hopeful that the Carano/Rousey fight would have lasted longer. But at least you can put the whole thing on a YouTube short.

Sir, I am not a goombah from Brooklyn.

I am, like our president, a gavone from Queens.

Much classier.
