@living8bit woah 😲

LAX 🛫🛬 DFW 🛫🛬 HRL

I think I'll try to attend the next meeting of the Southern California Commodore and Amiga Network (SCCAN), if it happens in May.

#CLASS is still open tomorrow, for those who live in the #LosAngeles area.

@living8bit Maybe, but it was in a black breadbin case and running the CPU at 30-something megahertz.

Something I had never seen before: MegaBit Internal ROM Adaptor for the Commodore 128D.

The giant binder contains the manuals of all the roms instantly available in the kit.

I found some information on this project here:

An Amiga 2000 with a Commodore Bridgeboard PC and A-Max II Mac emulator. Three computers in one.

I spotted a C64 Maxi, along with a MEGA65 and an FPGA clone which can run at over 30MHz (forgot the name... anyone?)

@Tanuki えぇぇぇっ！

All about #Japanese aizuchi (相槌), interjections during a conversation that indicate the listener is paying attention or understands the speaker.

Please check the chat log for possible hallucinations.

You may notice a "minor" issue with the GPT's estimate:

1024 * 96 * (12288 * 49) = 5,871,583,232 bytes

The correct result would be 59,190,018,048 - a factor 10 larger.

I have no idea where it pulled that result from, but we already knew that math wasn't ChatGPT's forte 😂

#ChatGPT #AI

#ChatGPT estimates the resource usage of models like GPT-3 and GPT-4 running in a multi-tenant environment.

As expected, ChatGPT is incapable of self-introspection, but it's surprisingly able to suggest a simple workaround 😲

@youronlyone I'm also trying to figure it out from the context in which it's used 🙂

@youronlyone In Jujutsu Kaisen, they translate 呪力 to "cursed energy", but I also heard it in less cursed contexts.

The other one, juryoku, is not to be confused with gravity:
重力 (juuryoku) = weight power

It's the same "ju" kanji used in Jujutsu Kaisen (呪術廻戦), and seems to be used mainly by exorcists.

#anime #japanese

魔力 (ma-ryoku) is the power of magical girls (魔法少女, mahō shōjo). Same "ma".

In RPGs it's sometimes translated as "mana". #japanese
