A blind man walks into a restaurant and sits down. The waiter,

who is also the owner, walks up to the blind man and hands him a

menu.

"I'm sorry sir, but I am blind and can't read the menu. Just

bring me a dirty fork from the previous customer, I'll smell it

and order from there."

A little confused, the owner walks over to the dirty dish pile

and picks up a greasy fork. He returns to the blind man's table

and hands it to him. The blind man puts the fork to his nose and

takes in a deep breath.

"Ah, yes that's what I'll have, meatloaf and mashed potatoes."

Unbelievable, the owner says to himself as he walks towards the

kitchen. The cook happens to be the owner's wife and he tells her

what had just happened. The blind man eats his meal and leaves.

Several days later the blind man returns and the owner mistakenly

brings him a menu again.

"Sir, remember me? I'm the blind man."

"I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. I'll go get you a dirty

fork." The owner again retrieves a dirty fork and brings it to

the blind man. After another deep breath, the blind man says,

"That smells great, I'll take the Macaroni and cheese with

broccoli.

Once again walking away in disbelief, the owner thinks maybe the

blind man is screwing around with him and tells his wife that the

next time the blind man comes in he's going to test him. The

blind man eats and leaves.

He returns the following week, but this time the owner sees him

coming and runs to the kitchen. He tells his wife, "Mary rub this

fork around your crotch before I take it to the blind man." Mary

complies and hands her husband the fork back.

As the blind man walks in and sits down, the owner is ready and

waiting. "Good afternoon sir, this time I remembered you and I

already have the fork ready for you."

The blind man puts the fork to his nose, takes a deep whiff and

says, "Hey I didn't know that Mary worked here"

    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
