Sugar makes my poo real bad, candy especially. My gut biome just can’t handle it.
Otherwise it’s just fibre from vegetables and fruit pretty much

Why call some drone in an outsourced call center?
Find out the home addresses and numbers of their C-staff and board. Call them, send them physical letters. Picket their homes.

It’s not just the realistic appearance, it’s the fact you can make the character do the specific expressions required, like opening your mouth etc

It all depends really, Steam Deck is the best all rounder but for specific niches (tiny and portable, retro form factor) there are better ones 😀

“This blogger” is Simon Willison, who has been doing LLM benchmarks and other LLM-related things since before it was cool
Not a random substack grifter

It definitely has specific blocks on what it will output.

And more is better so people get used to using them and skip the telcos and other stuff that can be tracked

Meshtastic requires bespoke hardware, it’ll always stay a marginal tool
This requires: an iPhone.
And someone will make a bridge from this to Meshtastic in a while anyway

Briar doesn’t have an iOS client an never will
This doesn’t have an android client 😀
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 4 weeks ago:
LLMs are shit at current events
Perplexity is kinda ok, but it’s just a search engine with fancy AI speak on top
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 4 weeks ago:
Wrong 70% doing what?
I’ve used LLMs as a Stack Overflow / MSDN replacement for over a year and if they fucked up 7/10 questions I’d stop.
Same with code, any free model can easily generate simple scripts and utilities with maybe 10% error rate, definitely not 70%

I bought a Venta LW25 and couldn’t be happier. Simple and functional, good old German engineering
- Comment on Does vibe coding sort of work at all? 4 weeks ago:
Most likely Claude, it’s pretty much the best at the moment
- Comment on Does vibe coding sort of work at all? 4 weeks ago:
The main problem with LLMs is that they’re the person who memorised the textbook AND never admit they don’t know something.
No matter what you ask, an LLM will give you an answer. They will never say “I don’t know”, but will rather spout 100% confident bullshit.
The “thinking” models are a bit better, but still have the same issue.
- Comment on Supreme Court to decide whether ISPs must disconnect users accused of piracy 4 weeks ago:
IIRC the judge said they could use the data for training, but specifically added that piracy is still piracy and he didn’t rule on that.
So Disney can just sue Meta for one trillion 😀
- Comment on Supreme Court to decide whether ISPs must disconnect users accused of piracy 4 weeks ago:
So if Meta is convicted of pirating books for AI training, they lose all internet connectivity? 🧐
- Comment on RETIRED: Readarr - Sonarr for Ebooks Book Manager and Automation 5 weeks ago:
Yea, it’s been broken for weeks. You can’t search for new artists at all.
It got sorta fixed a while ago and now I can search for artists, but adding them doesn’t work. Their metadata server crapped out months ago and they’ve been fixing it ever since, should be done soonish. Or not.
- Comment on RETIRED: Readarr - Sonarr for Ebooks Book Manager and Automation 5 weeks ago:
Fixed Lidarr: github.com/blampe/hearring-aid
And Radarr: github.com/blampe/rreading-glasses
Basically they replace the broken closed source metadata server for both with a working one.
The author is also in talks with Readarr to take over the project.

- Comment on Iran’s internet blackout left people in the dark. How does a country shut down the internet? 5 weeks ago:
On the other hand Meshtastic nodes can be solar powered and independent. You can easily build a big-ish mesh with a couple hundred western monetary units.
It also uses common frequencies with every single wireless weather display and garage door opener and wireless outlet.
Also HAM operators are required to not encrypt their traffic and are licensed/registered, thus easily found and their equipment taken away.
Neither is perfect tho

Meshtastic would work too. But it’s banned in many countries. Or specifically devices that transmit in a specific frequency

Got scammed on FB marketplace.
I have the account info of the seller, did a police report. Nothing has happened and nothing will happen.
Lesson learned.
- Comment on Why does America feel the need to control the world? Do what they say? Instead of taking care of their own problems at home? When did the US become police officer of the world and enforcer? 1 month ago:
If the lesser evil would’ve been Soviet Union, we would’ve been a) communists and b) not independent anymore.
- Comment on Why does America feel the need to control the world? Do what they say? Instead of taking care of their own problems at home? When did the US become police officer of the world and enforcer? 1 month ago:
It was either surrender to Soviet Union (legendary dicks) or ally with Nazis (had no reason to stay and conquer us). We picked the lesser evil.
