LLM is a form of AI, specifically the text AIs like ChatGPT that have suddenly made "AI" a dinner table term. AI in some form or another is almost definitely being used in your device - even for things like filling in gaps in low-quality voice calls, and probably has been for a while. But the problem is that unlike those "old" AIs, LLMs require some significant power to run, so running them on phones will probably require meaningful trade-offs. But the increased security is also a meaningful benefit.

I think they mean gamesindustry.biz

It is unfortunate, but there is also reason to be optimistic. It's clear that they want to make use of existing items, especially under-utilized ones from previous releases. It's something that they've repeatedly talked about over the past year. It's even one of the design principles from Jeb's internal handbook. Take copper: added in 1.17, used for brushes in 1.20, and used for copper bulbs, doors, grates, and trapdoors in 1.21. They even briefly played with copper horns in Bedrock. Or tuff: also added in 1.17 as a totally useless block, with variants fleshed out in 1.21 that makes it surprisingly useful for building. Not to mention the crafter and potions of infestation/oozing/weaving are entirely made from existing items, or the new paintings that don't require any new items at all. Even completely new items are tried to have as many uses as possible from the start: wind charges have tons of different applications. I think Mojang has been paying attention to this trend for longer than most of us have, and we're finally starting to see it shift how they approach update design.

Where did you read that? I can bet it wasn't the TOS, because that's not in there. The TOS allows Adobe to review anything you create with its products using manual or automated means, and maybe restricted to normal screening for CSAM and such (although it's really ambiguous about what they'll actually do with it).

On Windows, it's easy! Unfortunately, on Linux, as far as I know, you currently have to use a non-standard client.

You can actually use Zstandard as your codec for 7z to get the benefits of better compression and a modern archive format! Downside is it's not a default codec so when someone else tries to open it they may be confused by it not working.

Well, you can have a funnel cloud, but it's not a tornado until the condensation funnel touches the ground, and it's not always clear what the case is until proper surveying is done.

ChatGPT makes you a 10x developer, so using it for one year is like ten years of experience ^/s

Indie studios do in fact exist. I haven't bought a game from a major publisher since... uhh... well, I guess I bought Portal for $1 last year, does Valve still count as a major publisher?

As a former 4-Her myself, the 4-H extension office in our region is run by a state university, but the clubs themselves are community-organized. Also, many clubs in our area were general, so you could do any topic covered by the extension office and be a part of the club.

Bricklink is a site for individuals/small business to buy and sell primarily individual Lego pieces, so it's important for shipping calculations to have reasonably accurate weights of all the pieces. Their weights are therefore contributed by those sellers. Although now that LEGO Group owns Bricklink, you'd think they could just slide them the numbers.

The part pictured here seems to be 3069px7 with the base color incorrectly set to white. In any case, it's 3069, the standard 1x2 tile. Thanks to the folks at LDraw who have modeled every Lego brick in detail (because of course people have done that), we get a volume of 303.8mm³, with a bounding box size of 409.6mm³, for a density of about 74%. But, Bricklink can just directly tell us the mass of a 1x2 tile is 0.26g, so the total mass is 10.5 metric tons.
