    Should take a look at some of the ISO specs for various MPEG standards for example. The container formats are defined in a way that could potentially make this possible.

    Indeed, I've never developed my own film but I do respect it entails a fair bit of effort, and the funky old camera is cool. But scanning, cropping using one of the latest image ed…

    I like the core of the game and similar ones like Boggle. But agree for this the timer and having only one game per day makes this not enjoyable. Not enough reward in the mechanics…

    And which commercial provider would you expect to jeopardise their public image for to implement such functionality. Grok comes close I guess, but X have not come out of it looking…

    Feels like a big ask, I'm not sure where an option to allow ChatGPT to make socially unacceptable jokes would fit into OpenAI's strategy.

    It's not boasting, I'm not sure why what I wrote would come across that way. I'm describing how I use a product and the functionality it presents to me. But yes, it's an emerging a…

    I'm curious from the other direction, what are the conversations like if you feel they are easy to move? Do you have the memory feature disabled? I have the feeling this in particu…

    This is not the case. I use OpenAI a lot on the paid plan via the UI. It now knows absolutely loads about me and seems to have a massive amount of cross conversational memory. It's…

    I was playing about with Chat GPT the other day, uploading screen shots of sheet music and asking it to convert it to ABC notation so I could make a midi file of it. The results se…

    I went to Lidl UKs first walk out shop a few weeks ago. You get the bill and receipts about 40 minutes after you've left. It certainly felt like it could have been sent off to a lo…

    I don't get this kind of indignation against anything shell related.

    I often favour low maintenance and over head solutions. Most recently I made a stupidly large static website with over 50k items (i.e. pages). I think a lot of people would have us…

    It's because phones speakers aren't loud enough to be audible over the sound of the tube itself! It is noticeable on buses and overground when people play things out load, but to b…

    Clearly one use case where it wouldn't work. On the other hand I'm a software engineer and my incredibly powerful MacBook could be not much more than a fancy dumb terminal - to be …

    I'm not really a big gamer but was looking into buying an xbox again. I already had a controller and thought why not try xbox cloud gaming on my Samsung TV. With a decent internet …

    That's actually about the same price as the pi 500+ without the screen. Except that one has 500gb Vs 256gb SSD, but doesn't have the snazzy led keyboard. Processor comparison too h…

    I dunno, I brought a pi 500+ with an SSD, 16GB RAM, little screen, PSU, mouse and cables. It was around £300. It's not super powerful but my young kids use it to surf the net, play…

    I often try running ideas past chat gpt. It's futile, almost everything is a great idea and possible. I'd love it to tell me I'm a moron from time to time.

    I've found this memory across chats quite useful on a practical level too, but it also has added to the feeling of developing an ongoing personal relationship with the LLM. Not onl…

    Don't know if birds count, but the egret population has exploded in the UK in the last 10 years. There's zoos here that have them in their exotic bird sections. Always makes me smi…
