Wait, why would it become an emergency room curiosity? Ohhhhh, missed that last part. Gourds really are nature’s dildo.

This game is insanely addictive.
- Comment on Lexar doubles up the NM790 series SSDs max capacity to 8TB — new drives spotted at retail for approx $1,000 5 weeks ago:
8tb on one chip? As Bill Gates once said “Damn, that’s a shit load of ram.”

Got take, English got it wrong. I’ve never heard a frog make a sound like"ribbit". German out Turkish seems like a sensible sounds a frog would make.

The policy is you can only work from home when it benefits the company, not you.

I hate Reddit as much as the next guy but that just sounds like an asshole mod
- Comment on Update: Bitwarden posted to X this evening to reaffirm that it's a "packaging bug" and that "Bitwarden remains committed to the open source licensing model." 1 month ago:
When I dropped LastPass I found Bitwarden and liked them mainly because of the open source. I pay them for the software so that it can remain free and open. If that stopped, I would also stop paying them for it.
- Comment on Menopause should be called menostop cause there is no menoresume? 1 month ago:
Pretty sure it was named after the French village Mini-Opuasé where it was discovered in the 1800’s.

I heard he’s a pretty cool guy and doesn’t afraid of anything.

Not that uncommon. Have you seen that documentary called The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot
- Comment on What can I do with US$10K that is a good investment? 2 months ago:
I got a 7k bonus 20 years ago in the military. I seriously considered investing it in the Vangard total stock market index fund. In '04 it was trading at $54 per share, today $282. Had I invested that $7,000 I would have $365,555 today. Instead I “invested” it at the strip club because I was a young dumb E-3 in Pensacola and New Orleans was only a weekend pass away. Long story short, index funds are the way to go.

Well how was I supposed to figure out that my docker node running on libreelec won’t connect to the swarm because the kernel was compiled with out the The Berkeley Packet Filter protocol.

Damn, I had no idea that Maynard was on the that green jello album. That was also my first CD I ever got. Probably from lSam Goody in the mall to play on my sony discman in like 1993 or something.

Sounds interesting. I know there’s technologies like LorA and BLE that create networks on different frequencies other than what standard wifi uses. But they don’t really have a lot of bandwidth.

The CIA doesn’t assassinate people. They pay the rebels to do it.

My kids are around that age and it’s a real struggle when all of their friends have one.
- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 3 months ago:
Same boat dude. That’s how I got YouTube premium. I uploaded like 500 GB of music for Google Music to host it and I could stream my own collection. Now I use Navidrome and my own server.
- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 3 months ago:
It’s only a matter of time until the premium users get ads. Just like Netflix, and cable TV before that. You will inevitably wind up paying to be advertised to.
- Comment on ISP to Supreme Court: We shouldn’t have to disconnect users accused of piracy 3 months ago:
True, but it wasn’t the cloud provider that caught it. They just forwarded the letter to me from the company that monitors torrent swarms I guess.
- Comment on ISP to Supreme Court: We shouldn’t have to disconnect users accused of piracy 3 months ago:
Lol, I’ve been on that train for a decade. I just wanted to try using my own personal VPN server to torrent which kinda defeats the purpose of a VPN I guess.
- Comment on ISP to Supreme Court: We shouldn’t have to disconnect users accused of piracy 3 months ago:
So I’ve rented a server for years. It’s in the US and it’s a couple bucks a month. It’s fun to play with and I use it however I want. I’ve had an email server, a next cloud instance, and an open VPN instance to name a few things on it. Well I decided to connect a torrent client from my home to the openvpn instance on my server to see if I could do it. It worked really well until the company I rent from forwarded the DMCA hit back to me for downloading Rick and Morty. I should’ve known better but I thought a nameless faceless server farm wouldn’t be worth the hassle of a DMCA but I was wrong.
- Comment on This happens after 3-4 days of running the server, then I have to restart it manually. 3 months ago:
I’ve never seen this particular error, but CPU stall warnings seem like a fairly common thing. I wouldn’t jump straight to hardware fault, but it’s a possibility.

I actually have an instance of searxng as well. I use it with my local chatGPT.

Not an ad, but Kagi is worth it. I’m ok with paying for search tho.

Here’s the album art for Electriclarryland. I made the mistake of clicking on wiki article that inspired it. Wouldn’t recommend.
- Comment on OpenAI’s latest model will block the ‘ignore all previous instructions’ loophole 4 months ago:
I’m not sure what is these days but according to Merriam it’s the capability of computer systems or algorithms to imitate intelligent human behavior. So it’s debatable.
- Comment on OpenAI’s latest model will block the ‘ignore all previous instructions’ loophole 4 months ago:
I wouldn’t say LLMs are going away any time soon. 3 or 4 years ago I did the Sentdex youtube tutorial to build one from scratch to beat a flappy bird game. They are really impressive when you look at the underlying math. And the math isn’t precise enough to be reliable for anything more than entertainment. Claiming it’s AI, much less AGI is just marketing bullshit, tho.

Guess that makes sense. Still not putting a stick person family on my car.
