You’d recognize some older All Time Low if you’ve been around any pop punk. “Dear Maria, Count Me In” was very popular. The Maine I know, they’re good. On the poppier and emo-ier (?) side of pop punk. And August Burns Red is a fantasic metalcore band but their mostly screamed vocals can be abrasive to new listeners.

I got “would you like your receipt?” replied to me after saying “bonjour” at a gas station in Quebec.

Gimme some of that stuff!

People’s Colour of Skin?

I gotta do this. I haven’t sharpened my pocket knife since I bought it like 10 years ago.

It’s a comedian’s routine from eight years ago.

I’ve never had it enabled

It can happen on most LLMs and is usually programmed to decentivize repeating text heavily.

I believe what happens is that when the LLM is choosing what word to use, it looks back on the sentence and sees that it talked about knives, so it wants to continue talking about knives, then it gets itself into a loop.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

Great movie.

It’s definitely eerie seeing the skies darken knowing that another province is burning down. Thankfully I’m not too bothered by the poor air quality. For Canada, I don’t know much. We have lots of fresh water and most of our country is difficult to enhabit due to the cold already, so we are probably in a better position than many globally central areas.

Currently hazy from smoke. We have “wildfire season” now and half of Canada is either smoky or on fire. Had it bad two years ago too. I’m not that old but it didn’t happen when I was younger that I remember.

This is the same as me. Outside of work, though, I’m the cat in the meme.

It’s more enjoyable is the main thing. It’s more fun to drive a manual car to many people and that’s their appeal. There are a few other advantages to it as well. They’re generally more reliable and have better fuel economy and performance than automatics that were offered until the 2010s.

This wasn’t taught to me either but this is the best thing for teaching others. I’ve explained this to a few people before that were struggling to learn and it made the process much easier.

Thunder has keyword filters. These help but aren’t perfect.

I regularly drank from a stream in Canada as well haha. There was a stream fed by a spring near where we lived that we tested and was clean. We’d then fill up jugs right from the spring to drink at home.

Yeah this is annoying.

“It’s your lucky day!”

I believe Piefed is designed to federate with existing Lemmy instances which means it’s working already.

I see Piefed posts in Thunder.

Where are you from? I’m Canadian. If you wore a jacket that would mean it’s cool outside. Houses are kept warm so you’d be too warm wearing the jacket inside so you’d take it off at the door unless you were just running inside quickly. Shoes is strange to me. Never wanted to leave shoes on in someone’s house.
