Why are you responding to a year and a half old comment? Lol

Oh no. I worked so hard to be able to maintain eye contact in conversations (autistic) and now I’m questioning it.

A simulation could be hacked, and that’s really fun to think about

I’m confused by the fuck/fight portion. Is it normal to want to fuck or fight every person who maintains eye contact? Have I been unknowingly threatening/coming into all of my work colleagues?

100%. I’m also trialing Copilot at a medium-sized corpo job and it saves me roughly 12-20 hours of work per week.

I use it often in PowerShell scripting. It occasionally hallucinates and makes up commands, so sometimes it takes a bit of back and forth to get it to do what I want, but it’s still a hundred times easier than writing from scratch or tweaking+combining similar scripts I find online.

Probably my favorite part is being able to ask it “Where did I leave off with John on x issue last week?” And it will remind me that I’m supposed to do x and John is supposed to do y. Or even, “I helped a user with this specific issue six months ago. How did I fix it?” and it pulls the exact email and Teams chats outlining what we did, and I can click the link to open those messages and ensure it didn’t misinterperate. Way easier than digging by hand.

Finally, I absolutely hate making PowerPoints so I’ve been having it make all of my rough drafts from transcription notes in meetings. Super nice time saver.

Something I’m concerned about and playing with this week is pronoun usage in transcripts. I’m working with our LGBTQ ERG to ensure that we can make Copilot use preferred pronouns for everyone. If it can’t, we’ll need to pull back certain features.

It’s far from perfect but it genuinely makes my job a lot easier and I’d hate to lose it. I think it will only get better from here.

Aw ok, much love ❤️

That’s impossible, the term didn’t exist until 2010 when Jennifer Allen created it because she wanted a “scientific sounding” term to describe the sensation.

Oh. :( That wasn’t very friendly.

For sure, I’ve replaced the cable on this set a few times due to getting tangled in chair wheels or my kitten chewing on the cord

I got these pads for under $10 on Amazon. You just rotate the pads counter-clockwise and they pop off, no tools needed.

Oof. The headband on mine isn’t stock - it came with a bumpy headband that wore down over time. I swapped to this leather headband made from a scrap of recycled leather a few years ago and it has held up perfectly.

Huh?

The term ASMR was coined in 2010. I think it didn’t really catch on until 2011.

Close. I originally got them exclusively for ASMR listening, when ASMR was a brand new concept.

Do you happen to have a link to the replacement elastic? I had no idea that it could be replaced

Damn. Maybe snag a used set on Ebay?

Damn, those look sick! Are they over the ear or on-ear? Hard to drive? I might pick up a pair to use at the office since open-back isn’t a great choice for that environment.

Btw the leather band on my Q701 isn’t stock. It’s just scrap leather that I cut to shape when my old headband wore out. Got the scrap for free on a recycling group.

Those are basically a closed-back version of mine, right? They look badass.

The book Annihilation centered on a “tower” that was a mysterious, fleshy, downward spiraling tunnel with creepy writing on the walls. The imagery was so unsettling.

For some reason it is entirely absent from the movie. Like… that was half of the point of the book - a “tower” that climbed down into the earth instead of towards the sky. Why would you cut that?
