The sad part is that my previous robot (iRobot model from 3 years ago) was better at this.

Please oh please try to make Kärcher adopt your stuff. Even their latest premium cleaning bots are hopeless when they don't know where they are, even when I tell them where they are.

Or, I don't know, make your own vacuums.

>all nu-media appears to be populated almost exclusively by nu-people.

Which would be fixed by more people joining there. Those people are a vanishing minority after all in the real world.

Nobody should be on reddit. https:/lemmy.world is a perfectly good alternative.

The politics are a bit skewed vs reality, but that's just a function of masses not being there yet. It's way better now than like 3 or 5 years ago.

Now that's a pretty car, even though completely derivative.

$10.99 => $12.99 is a 200% increase?

From a European point-of-view, BYD cars are so weirdly obnoxious. It's like they're designed for 60 year-old nouveau riche.

Do the chinese appreciate cars like that themselves or do they just think we do?

You could have read the wikipedia article to find out the ending for 10+ years already.

I read the article for 5 minutes and spotted several instances of AI slop in the writing style. It's not that difficult to make your agent write like it was a human.

Yas. Only thing I've been able to practice in any real way. I've switched disciplines often though, so haven't got very far in any of them. I got a belt grade from like 7 pretty different japanese, thai and korean styles, but my highest grade is judo 3. kyu from like 1996.

Perhaps he was making a subtle point about liquidity.

I could see myself paying for a service like X, so that the service quality would be higher due to all the participants putting some money in. And that would be a nice way to keep bots out of the network.

Bluesky is a leftist echo chamber, which is irritating in its own way.

>eg. there are no significant numbers of people "dreaming of the lost socialist utopia of USSR"

You seem to be in the happy group of people who have never visited the Lemmy main site. Although you may be right about "significant numbers" even if that site seems to be full of them. They might literally all be there.

Funny how well these fit into the terminally online far leftist framing too.

1. Mythic past and rebirth: dreaming of the lost socialist utopia of USSR etc. which was taken from us all by force and deception.

2. Victimhood and humiliation: working class is the victim of a rigged system, exploited by capital elite.

3. Hierarchy and dehumanization: world is split into oppressors (landlords, rich people, etc) and oppressed (workers).

4. Contempt for weakness: "liberals" let this happen due to their limp-wristedness.

5. Cult of action: revolts, strikes, protests, even violence against oppressors.

6. The leader as savior: Mamdani, Sanders, AOC? This admittedly doesn't quite work in the same way as in fascism.

7. Purification of institutions: Universities, media, and governments must be purged of "reactionaries" or "liberals" who resist the revolution.

8. Propaganda and assault on truth: dissent is violently suppressed. Various kinds of Big Lies (e.g. "the genocide") are spread as absolute truths and are repeated at every possible point.

9. Merger of state and corporate power: seizing both the corporations and state for the proletariat.

10. Violence and terror: glorifying murderers when they murder those "who deserve it".

Same answer as to the question "Where are all the better versions of Photoshop?" before LLMs were a thing.

Everybody (not actually everybody) has wanted one for 20+ years, and almost nobody made it.

Such absolutely unfounded confidence is impressive.
