If you are an early Googlebook buyer, you should know that one of the first changes you should make on one of these new machines is to adjust the trackpad speed, because it’s a bit frustrating out of the box.

Google seems to finally understand why it bought Fitbit

Good morning! Today, I’m searching for Prime Day deals, watching Chris Rock masterfully dodge questions about The Slap, questioning Sam Altman about whether we have to accept “some bad things” to justify AI’s exponential growth, and brushing up on my chess game after many years of neglect.

A 5th Person In PA Has Suffered A Measles-Related Death

Amazon Alexa won't stop saying 'lalala' and users are creeped out
submitted by lichtmetzger to technology
72 points | 15 comments
https://www.androidauthority.com/amazon-alexa-la-la-la-3719167/Over the last month, users have been sharing reports about an issue with Alexa. It appears the AI will get stuck repeating the word “la” over and over again. According to these reports, Alexa will continue saying this word for several minutes before it stops. You can check out an example of the error in the video below.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFLtLb7vQHU
This isn’t the first time Alexa has been caught going haywire. Only a couple of months ago, users were taken aback when Alexa emitted guttural sounds, like those of a snarling animal. At least this most recent problem is a little less unnerving than that.
It’s unclear what’s causing Alexa to meltdown like this, but some users are blaming a recent update. Android Authority has reached out to Amazon for comment on the issue. This article will be updated when new information becomes available.

💬 @paulrobertlloyd — discussion #967 : IndieAuth Spec Testing
Reponse de discussion · Discussion #967 IndieAuth Spec Testing · @paulrobertlloyd
Was this tested against the boat load of charges in
main? If not, would be good to test Indiekit’s compliance again once the next beta lands; I suspect a few more tests will pass. -

💬 @paulrobertlloyd — PR #944 : feat(endpoint-microsub): PR 1 - Core Microsub server with channels and timeline
Commentaire de pull request · PR #944 feat(endpoint-microsub): PR 1 - Core Microsub server with channels and timeline · @paulrobertlloyd
@rmdes I’ve rebased this against
main; once this PR is approved, let’s merge it intomain, and release this feature piecemeal. Two remaining things to address, I think:- It’d be good if the Microsub endpoint could use shared pagination cursor methods. That’d no doubt need some tweaking to our existing methods, but perhaps less so once #975 lands?
- It’d also be good to ensure we update the Microsub section of the Supported IndieWeb specifications page on the website. Might you be able to list all the constituent components of the specification, and mark those that this PR ticks off (much like for Micropub on the same page)
I’d like to get this into the next beta release, Beta 30, if possible.
