I had pretty much the same experience finding the virtual memory settings on a win11 machine the other day. Same 20 year old dialog, now buried 5 more layers deep.

It’s actually possible in a way:

But you necessarily need to limit the devices and operating systems that are allowed. No custom ROMs, no root access, etc.

It’s bullshit and breaks open computing as a concept.

It’s buckets of people that had those different lead levels, so it adds up to everyone.

I always would. The only time it becomes a bit ambiguous is if there are two turn lanes, e.g. you’re turning left from the second-to-left lane. In that case I’d usually indicate later, maybe when I’ve stopped or the white line is solid, so it’s clear I’m not trying to change lanes.

I’m probably over thinking it.

If it makes a sound you don’t recognise, use the gun.

If you didn’t cheat that’s actually pretty impressive.

Literally any chatbot, probably

I just started using finamp a couple of weeks ago and this inspired me to install the beta.

If I find any problems I’ll try to get involved on the repository. Discord is a bit of a turnoff though.

The only deal-breaker for me was that the android app doesn’t persist its play state, so if I pause and do other stuff on my phone, it usually loses its place.

There’s ‘finamp’ for jellyfin which I really like so far.

I haven’t used plexamp though, so I can’t vouch for it as an alternative.

Unfortunately we are in clown-world and the actual fucking news is rage-inducing, even with impeccable journalism.

now I’ve got more than enough new stuff every day to keep me entertained.

You mean horrified/nauseous right? Maybe I’m doing it wrong.

Is putting ‘open’ in front of something the equivalent of putting .com on the end in 1999?

Possibly, but I’m not very familiar with wordpress.

I imagined something like:

https://nextcloud.com/partners/

The idea is that I could pay someone to admin the same services that they provide to the public.

So like maybe lemmy.world and the other popular instances could offer a Lemmy instance, and maybe also offer: matrix, pixelfed, mastodon, etc etc.

There are decent options out there for mainstream services like email, web, etc. but maybe not for more niche services like lemmy.

I’ve been wondering if there’s an opportunity for instance admins (e.g. lemmy.world) to offer managed instances for user domains.

It would be great if it was easier for the average person to own a domain and use it for email, matrix, Lemmy, etc.

#bookz on undernet is what I’ve used in the past.

Make this sound better: we’re aware of the outage at Site A, we are working as quick as possible to get things back online

How does this work in practice? I suspect you’re just going to get an email that takes longer for everyone to read, and doesn’t give any more information (or worse, gives incorrect information). Your prompt seems like what you should be sending in the email.

If the model (or context?) was good enough to actually add useful, accurate information, then maybe that would be different.

I think we’ll get to the point really quickly where a nice concise message like in your prompt will be appreciated more than the bloated, normalised version, which people will find insulting.

Ouch

I keep seeing this sentiment, but in order to run the model on a high end consumer GPU, doesn’t it have to be reduced to like 1-2% of the size of the official one?

Edit: I just did a tiny bit of reading and I guess model size is a lot more complicated than I thought. I don’t have a good sense of how much it’s being reduced in quality to run locally.

This sounds like good engineering, but surely there’s not a big gap with their competitors. They are spending tens of millions on hardware and energy, and this is something a handful of (very good) programmers should be able to pull off.

Unless I’m missing something, It’s the sort of thing that’s done all the time on console games.
