“Business owners deserve the profits they make because they’re the ones taking on risk.”

“No, no, not like that!”

But how? The evidence is right there.

Two things:

• Real quote. Thought this part was a shitpost.
• Why does he look like dollar store Javert?

The open-access study in question.

Cuttlefish are cephalopods (cephalopods are a class within the mollusc phylum), as are squids, octopodes, nautilus, etc. As octopodes have demonstrated high intelligence, this research is welcome and really cool but, to me, unsurprising.

Exactly. If you’re too stupid or lazy to adequately vet what your LLM puts out yourself, it shouldn’t be somebody else’s job to wade through the sewage you’re producing. You either shouldn’t be using one or, if you can’t do your job without it, you shouldn’t have that job.

Extremely valid point, and I forgot to bring this up: I read the NYP article (god help me), and I could find no evidence of that claim (which surprises me NJ.com cited it for that). In fact, there’s even counterevidence within the Post’s article:

Some Goya owners have also asked the board to present a motion to remove Unanue as CEO because he’s been using the company to promote his political views, sources said.

“More than 50 percent of the shareholders do not want Bob to be the CEO,” a Goya source said. “All these political statements that Bob is making is dangerous for the company and for us personally as owners,” this person added.

“It will hurt the Unanue name and company if he continues,” a second Goya source and shareholder said. “He should be thrown out as CEO. I think it’s really hurting us.”

In an interview with The Post last week leading up to Friday’s vote, Unanue acknowledged that his job may be on the line.

“I’m attacked by my own family” he said. “I could be fired tomorrow … whatever. It’s touch and go.”

As The Post exclusively reported last year, Unanue narrowly escaped losing his job when he nixed an effort to sell a minority stake in the company to a private equity investor that would have brought in a non-family member CEO for the first time in the company’s 85-year history.

It’s still possible that there’s some other source describing this alleged restriction, but I don’t know of it.

Oh, hey, the shithead who caused me to boycott Goya apparently got the boot last year. Too bad Goya waited five too many years; I’ll be keeping my business elsewhere indefinitely.

“Yabba dabba doo” is actually a venomously offensive slur, so “fuck” was censored at the last minute to keep the meme just under the swear budget.

Upfront: Here’s the Administrators’ Noticeboard discussion.

Okay, this one apparently slipped under my radar, albeit it seems like they’re pretty small and only started in 2022. Here’s their 2025 report.

It seems like their limited focus is on using LLMs for interwiki translation; to what extent its paid editors are capable of that, I have no idea. We maintain a list of paid editing companies here (usually undisclosed against policy).

OKA asserts:

For example, articles in topics such as Science, technology, engineering, and Finance are lacking compared to topics such as History, Geography, and Humanities.

I have no idea how they reached this conclusion or how they think they’re qualified to translate anything given the random “totally not a Central European language” capitalization of words like that.

Per 404:

A job posting for a “Wikipedia Translator” from OKA offers $397 a month for working up to 40 hours per week. The job listing says translators are expected to publish “5-20 articles per week (depending on size).”

20 for any reasonable-size article could not adequately be vetted by one person in an 84-hour work week, for context, and that’s $9.90/hour at 40 hours. (edit: wait, sorry, I read that as $397 per week; $397 per month would be < $2.50/hour. What the fuck.)

Overall, before reading the discussion, the people at OKA seem like disruptive morons.

Edit: Into the discussion we go:

Cmon man, the training guide instructs translators to create multiple email accounts to get around LLM usage caps… — ExtantRotations

…yes, and? — 7804j [OKA founder]

Jesus christ. 🤦

Edit 2: 7804j just cannot stop themself from transparently using an LLM to participate in the discussion.

Edit 3: “we ensure they are above the minimum wage in the countries where the editors reside” oh my fucking god

Sure, let me just estimate your remaining lifespan and get back to you on that.

Danke. This should easily be fine for anyone who’s slightly-to-moderately interested; some of the nitty-gritty details like hyperlinks to the edit diffs are excluded from this copy–paste for those who really know their stuff and want to learn more.

Oh, fuck, this is going to be interesting to read about. Just to clarify: it seems like this wasn’t just Wikipedia but Wikimedia generally. So that’s also e.g. Wiktionary, Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata, etc.

Edit: Decided to check Reddit, and someone posted an ostensibly good summary on /r/wikipedia.

Nor batteries externally removable like used to be.

This would be a major sacrifice to form factor and would be strictly detrimental to 99.999% of users. Regarding benefits outside repairability, basically nobody in 2026 is going to think to carry around a second, fully-charged laptop battery. Regarding repairability, you might have to replace the battery once during the laptop’s lifespan, and the procedure is extremely straightforward.

With an external battery, you end up with a laptop that’s not only substantially thicker, but which – because it’s stuck with a large battery either on the back or on the bottom – likely has worse airflow.

Notably for this repair, there are seven captive Phillips-head screws (seen plenty of hexalobular etc.), you can just use your fingers to remove the base cover (seen plenty where you need/want a pry tool), removing the base cover already removes the battery’s screw(s), and most importantly, you just pinch to disconnect instead of lifting a fragile connector off the board. Swapping the replacement external battery once you have it is probably about 30 seconds; this is about five minutes – practically no difference accounting for how infrequently it’ll need to be done. There’s an exception for people with a physical disability like Parkinson’s, but if you can phone a friend, the process is straightforward enough for basically anyone else to do it on your behalf.

Edit: On a whim, I decided to look to Framework for a comparison. It’s worse there for battery replacement.

• You have to first undo five captive hexalobular screws on the bottom.
• Then you have to lift the magnetic top panel, being sure not to damage the ribbon cable while you disconnect it.
• You have to pull out the connector for the battery using a small, black flap.
• Then you unscrew three more captive hexalobular screws.

As far as I can tell, the T14 is the easiest battery replacement you’re going to find being sold today. If you’re able-bodied enough to use a screwdriver and it not being external is somehow still a serious concern for repairability, I don’t know what to tell you.

“The Strongest Jedi” definitely isn’t right. At best, he’s evenly matched with Obi-Wan. If you apply stupid “power scaling” rules, then sure, Obi-Wan got ganked by Dooku during their fight while Anakin handily beat him. But at the same time that Dooku pushes Obi-Wan, he easily kicks and downs Anakin who’s behind him; Obi-Wan was just the one he subdued by crushing him, ostensibly seeing him as the greater threat.

We’ve seen Anakin lose to Obi-Wan at the (inherent) height of his combat prowess, and it was his own fault. Windu and Yoda probably also take Anakin one-on-one. (Windu, of course, was totally defenseless when Anakin severed his arm.)

If we’re talking about things like the Force, Yoda is clearly much more powerful. There’s an argument Anakin was the most powerful pilot, but that combined with being very Force-sensitive and a very good duelist doesn’t make him “the most powerful” overall. Most potential? If he could keep his emotions under control, probably.

Also Saddam watching someone make a meme with that line break:

Wow, what elegant timing for AskYourUncle’s video about AC4.

You’ve got it reversed. Switching to Teams greatly hastened development, as the team’s newfound vitriol and frustration could be channeled toward the end user in a neverending feedback loop.

Yeah, I was pretty confused about what to do with my ferns when my house plant phase ended too. :/

What did you expect? It says “beyond fried” right there, as in “so far past fried that it’s condensed into rubber”. (I’m sorry, Beyond; I love you, and you’re perfect.)
