Honestly I found it delightful. It was so fun to see so many faces again, and even the new characters melded in surprisingly well. My one gripe is I think they would have benefited from adding a layer of artificial grit or something so it didn’t look quite so hi-def.
Midwest here. Just had the procedure about two weeks ago (recovery slightly slower than the commenter above, but not by much). They said something like $500 without insurance which honestly wasn’t even that bad. After insurance it was $110. One consultation of “you sure big dawg?” Then the procedure about 4 weeks later, which took maybe 20-30 minutes and I was just chatting away with some Valium in my system. Very easy.
Someone may have replied with this already, but: https://stoptrumpswars.org/ we’re trying.

Dang I had so many of these books growing up. Either my memory is trash or I didn’t actually read most of them because the only thing I remember is some guy got stuck as a hawk lmao
Unpopular opinion, but I’m coming to the realization that I don’t really care if FOSS projects are experimenting with and leaning into AI. In most cases I am not donating and simply enjoying a product for free. I am no programmer I put trust in their code before, all I can do is continue to do the same. Now, paid software feels different. And I don’t mean donations, I mean if Autodesk started pumping out slop (which I don’t doubt is happening) then that feels far worse.
Plus, I’ve gotten an insane amount of utility out of Claude as a regular dude. If I knew what I was doing a little more, I imagine that would feel pretty cool.
Id be willing to bet the entire image is AI. Seems odd to only do those icons, when it’s arguably the easiest part to source of the entire image. Makes me question the validity of the numbers, especially now that I realize there don’t appear to be citations.
I work with a kid who I know listens to JRE often. He’s kind and very smart. What I’ve found is that he lacks confidence and prefers not to speak even when he thinks he has the right answer, for fear of being wrong. He’s depressed, and around this time last year checked himself into a hospital for a week. I know he recently started going to church, likely to try and find answers and support. He seems to mean well. All this to say, listeners of JRE may not be stupid or bad people. Some of them, a lot of them, I’d be willing the guess, are confused young men being brought to bad conclusions because they sound like answers and are wrapped with an “I’m just asking questions,” bow.
Lol I’ve got mine sitting in the basement, still equipped with the pandora’s battery and probably some wild theme if I ever get around to turning it back on.
Same. I also appreciate nzb360’s way of handling paid features, it feels novel in a sea of subscriptions.
If it’s okay to pirate for the sake of training AI, can I set up a model to train at a particular speed - say, 1 byte per hour 😈 asking for a friend obvi
I just spent a week trying to set up my own server and good lord it was such a battle I gave up. Matrix? Up in like half an hour. Shame because my friends are so much more interested in Revolt lmao. Just gonna give them some time to sort out their business before trying again.
I mainly use Cloudflare for buying domains and DNS settings. Are there better, more resilient alternatives? I am not savvy enough for a hyper custom setup. I think I’ve seen Porkbun mentioned. I’ve used name cheap before. I do pay for NextDNS - is that something that could fit into this? I don’t think so but maybe I’m underutilizing it.
That website is delightful.
Just nailed down my Octopi setup today after abandoning Nova and so far enjoying it. A handful of things feel unintuitive, but some of it may be habits from a decade plus using Nova. The reachable drawer, where you can have it at first only open about halfway, is awesome. The worst part has been the lack of comprehensive search (apps, files, web, all in one). Installed Sesame to cover that and it’s been fine.
Just had a baby. Had the privilege of using 5 days of PTO for my parental leave. Partner gets like 4 months, thankfully.
Damn he is so desperate to get people talking about anything but the Epstein files.
That’s what alt accounts are for right…right?
The one thing I REALLY enjoy about the start menu kind of doubling as a Bing search is I can type in unit conversions and it’ll do them then and there without busting out a calc or opening a web browser. All other cases are like this where it’s annoying nonsense.
I always thought of it as more of an efficiency thing. Perhaps a bad analogy, but let’s say I have a few hundred photos I took on vacation. Yes, I could store them all together in a single batch. However, grouping them with some kind of predetermined taxonomy can help make sense of things through the noise. In a similar fashion, elected officials, imperfect though they may be, consolidate the voices of many into the voices of a few. At a certain scale and across certain distances it does make sense.
I think it was somewhere here in Lemmy, but I saw a proposal of randomized government appointments akin to jury duty which I found quite fun. Good way to make sure the populace is smart because any of them may be called up.
