  5. 😆 Oh, sweet technobabble! We've invented a magic light contraption that doesn't need switches—just a 400 error and a clueless support team to light your way to nowhere. 🚫🔦

  9. Oh, the horror! 😱 Yet another #technobabble #snoozefest about "MCP Vulnerabilities" that's so thrilling it'll put you to sleep faster than a #lullaby. Can't wait for part 2: "Let's Pretend We're Fixing It" 😂.

    (Re: ai, insulin pump/cgm, etc contd)

    But this is like any tool, right?
    We have the responsibility to anticipate potential negative impacts and prioritize strategies to avoid them. (Especially the "we" that has the societal "power")

    * contd
    🤹‍♀️:

    -re death, see "dead in bed," "severe lows", etc
    -also, at least 2 common scenarios where the ai's "failsafes" fail.
    If anyone's curious pls LMK cuz this is enough infodump here! 😁🙄😉

  11. Questions always follow after such, 'salty talk', or 'nautical nomenclature', or in #Star_Trek terms, #technobabble.

    What's the difference between a mizzen topgallant sail and a main royal staysail? Just a few rules is all it takes, but in today's world, one need only avail themselves of the basic Marconi rig on a single masted sloop. There's a mainsail (the big triangular one aft of the mast), and a jib, or foresail. Typically, when speaking about a jib (the one forward of the mast), people will typically categorize them into about three classes:

    • a #Genoa (big one - low wind conditions)
    • a #Jenny (also called a #working_jib for most wind conditions)
    • a #Storm_jib - smallish, for reduced sail area in high and gale force winds.

    If you're rigged to run one jib, you're a #sloop; two, and you're #cutter rigged.

    tl;dr: Unlike elections, rigging is a good thing. Without standing rigging you have nothing to hold your masts up in place and they'll just snap or fall over. Without running rigging you have no way to control your sails, hoist them up, or catch the wind.

    So when it comes to sailboats, it's a very good thing that they're rigged :p

  14. 🐌 Ah, the cutting-edge world of 2012 WebGL! Dive into a sea of techno-babble about Gray-Scott #patterns, where equations spawn "negative bubbles" and "solitons"—because who doesn’t want a browser full of mathematical soup? 🤯 For those who find the term "user-friendly" offensive, here’s your chance to get lost in a mess of jargons and obscure symbols! 🎨

  15. 🔒🤡 Presenting CapOS: the latest in techno-babble jet fuel, promising a "responsibility-gated" OS—because who wouldn't want a system that checks your homework before letting you run an app? 🚀🥴 Welcome to the future where your CPU pauses to ponder the meaning of life before executing a process! 🙄🔐

  16. @mpax @steaphan
    I’m sure there’s some #technobabble like:
    “The shield generators degrade under repeated attacks so it overloads their ability to withstand such powerful blows, in easily measured incremental amounts” 📡

  17. Habitually I provide the url, but if you do not need to, I would not recommend this for human reading. I fully grasp the concepts trying to be described, I just reflexively resist the way it is presented.

    Ironic for something trying to explain how to implement the separation of data, code and presentation, that it so quickly devolves into #Jargon & #Technobabble

  18. No #spoilers, but #CW makes a cameo at the end and there’s enough technically accurate #technobabble to make me believe that there were some #HamRadio operators involved in making the film.

  19. RE-EDIT: I got alt text but no caption on the first picture, and captions but no alt text on the rest..... and after that, only captions no matter how I try to write it

    EDIT : Figured it out. Directly (no space) after the address string thingy for the picture, add the description and directly after that (again no space) [/img]

    I have no idea how to add captions or alt text....I'm trying to find a Friendica alt text for dummies guide, but everything I find reads like technobabble. Sorry, I'm old, we had Commodore 64's when I was in school.

    Found this "Say, you want to embed the image.jpg from example.com. The BBCode to add the image and provide an ALT text for it would be:
    img=http://example.com/image.jpg]This is the image description text.[/img

    When I drag and drop a picture in a post, it looks like this:

    -so....I put the what where???

  20. I Installed #CasaOS just for fun on an old computer running Debian Bookworm and I'm impressed. In no time I look at a slick user interface from my main computer, and I've installed some apps like #HomeAssistant and #NextCloud in it. Looks very promising.

  21. @DWUDatabase "Isotope" is such a stupid word to put on a sign. It just means "stuff" after all. LOL

  22. @DWUDatabase One thing I always admired about JP was how he could deliver an idiotic line like "I reversed the polarity of the neutron flow." whist keeping a completely straight face.

    Modulate a planet's magnetic field, to communicate hundreds of light years. Reception by large array differential magnetometer.

    (Don't mind me, I'm feverish and got a really bad cold. The drugs and alcohol are utterly fantastic. Beats the hell out of reading "the news".)

  24. Es gibt doch jede Menge #startrek #fanfiction . Hat sich in diesem Kontext mal jemand den Spaß gemacht, eine ganze Folge ausschließlich mit #technobabble zu synchronisieren?

  25. Who writes this nonsense?

    "Get the data visibility you need to better understand and manage your trust landscape."

    "Leverage powerful insights to take the necessary actions that lead to positive results for your business."

    "Move from manual workflows to trust by design with automation that keeps you elevated from competition and focused on the path ahead."
