  @RiftboundGG Ew thats disgusting!! Ive not had that much issue with ebay yet. Their CS so far has been above and beyond helpful 3 out of 4 times in recent months. I did have a bad incident though where I was sent a cracked slab in paper envelope and for some reason they wouldnt refund me. The seller also had many reviews complaining of the packing causing damage in the space of a month.

  @Hot_Pepper76 I was doing atmospheric chemistry research at the time Mel was filming Apocalypto in the rain forest of Mexico. Our team was staying in the same Veracruz hotel as Mel, his family and his crew were in. Mel and his crew were touring the bars every night along the Gulf coast near Veracruz and we ran into them often but I totally left them alone as some of my crew members drooled all over him. In my spare time, I was climbing volcanoes across Mexico and doing a photographic project, shooting windows and doors on the old buildings of Veracruz. One Saturday morning, my camera and I were headed out of the motel to explore and Mel ran past me to the valet. He dropped an ID and I grabbed it and yelled at him but he was undeterred. As he got into the driver's seat, I put the ID against the window of the passenger's door. He flipped me off and drove away like a bat out of hell. I put the ID in my wallet, planning to drop it off at the hotel desk. Or maybe sell it on eBay... About 20 seconds later, he drove up to me like a bat in a more polite hell and rolled down his window, saying: "I'm such an *******." I gave him the ID and he drove away like a bat out of Hollywood Hell. Truth, in all details.

  @whitebriefsbro You’re acting like this is bad news. Sorry, I don’t buy cheap underwear. Fruit of the Loom’s stitching and fabric are terrible. They own BVD, but not the Japanese rights, so I buy Japanese BVD on eBay. If it’s holding my junk, I want quality, not bargain-bin fabric.

  I think it's quite obvious what the near future of consumer AI looks like, and I think that future became obvious with the releases last week from @OpenAI. Last week we received GPT 5.6 models, and GPT Live. Both represented big qualitative shifts in capability. For me, working with GPT 5.6 is night-and-day compared with 5.5. Where 5.5 was very capable, but pedantic, myopic, and more represented a faustian bargain (you get what you asked for, but you get what you asked for), 5.6 seems to infer intent and provide useful normative guidance more. Today, for example, I noticed my sneakers were wearing out. I started a new codex task just saying "Can you reorder my adidas sneakers again". I bought these in 2024, so it it read my daily notes I keep, looked through my email for receipts of purchases, found the model and size, noted it was out of stock, looked on ebay for matches, weighted a few options by vendor reputation, filled out the details of my address etc. and came back to me when it was ready for review and to initiate the transaction. In terms of my professional work, it's profoundly helpful. My mornings are now spent with printed memos that it's prepared, where I review status, diagrams, methodological decisions. My afternoons are spent revising, validating, reviewing this work. And the evenings are spent setting up the next batch of work to run. In terms of GPT Live, the past few days, I've gone for walks and instead of listening to 90 minutes of podcasts, I might listen to 30, and speak with GPT live for 60 minutes. I often have it on ambiently in the background while I work, in case I want to query it, which is a direct replacement for opening chatgpt and asking it, which itself was a direct replacement for Google, which I haven't been on directly in quite some time. For me, the shape that work takes in the following few months feels like this: some device you already own can be your "always on" GPT live system. This is embedded in codex, and knows what sessions/tasks are going on. You don't need to interface with a computer as much because you can talk through your airpods. The previous example of re-ordering my sneakers is just a voice command "oh hey can you reorder my sneakers", and the response (when its ready for you to pay) is some form of notification. I can't sense whether it's better for an audio notification from GPT Live itself, or some nearby device (e.g. a push notification on the phone, or a phone call for example with GPT-Live routed to it). For professional work, this can of course still require computers, but for many professionals, the shape of that computer does not need to be the same. I think a lot of the interesting demos around e-ink "Tom Riddle's" diary may be a desirable form factor. Instead of me - for example - receiving printed memos (through some $print skill via a /goal), I would instead have some kind of performant e-ink tablet that is essentially a thin codex client, that can translate things I write or speak at it, into updated versions of work). However, that thinking may be too narrow and is probably omitting other senses too much, as well as slowing down human-computer interactions too much as well. The next form factor after that is glasses, because the next endstate for something like GPT-Live is making it really good at just picking up audio AND video. Then, you have two products: you have glasses which can ambiently monitor sound and video, and you have small nice looking mic/video setups in rooms. In this way, the shape of work returns to some post-MadMen style workplace: nice interiors, a couple of whiteboards, with little cameras and videos capturing content, inferring it, and producing the stuff that people used to do. Of course, audio may be too slow in that world, and so we then would need to think about BCI and basically wiring Codex up to thoughts. It's my understanding that a few labs are working on this, and I would imagine the form-factor would be either glasses or an airpods like apparatus eventually (not a cowboy hat ala @tbpn). Ignoring the potential profound psychological impacts of being able to communicate thoughts immediately to a computer which can then respond at 750 tokens/second via cerebras), this certainly makes for a better shape of work than what has been the case for the past decade or two (eyes fixed to screen, talking is a way for humans to know what to do next on screen). I think those forms maybe became more obvious to me last week given 5.6 capacity to just chip away competently, seemingly without fail, and gpt-live's ease of use, and new breadth of capability. This of course, assumes a world where humans still have some useful position, and that is not a given!

  eBay appears to be experiencing technical issues, with users reporting problems on Downdetector.

  @eBay I already did that, eBay. Read the damn post before firing off another useless reply. Your customer support pulled the same incompetent bullshit; ignored the actual issue and answered a question nobody asked.

  @JamieMc46313002 @ScooterCasterNY An AirBoss PAPR off eBay is a good option for babies, Zimi 95S or 7711 are good options for toddlers and school kids, see my pinned tweet for more good kids options, but the problem is they are all from other countries due to NIOSH’s focus solely on adults

  @MMJDanM R.O.D. was a pain to find again. I had to get the OVA's off of Amazon but had to hunt down the series on Ebay, wasn't too expensive either at least.
