I've always been curious what means and criteria one can use to vet a synthetic drug.

I recall a test initiative was done some time ago for painting (or mixing in, I forget) roads teal. It improved the heat island where it was placed, and wasn't too bright for motorists. I wonder why that never went anywhere...

Llama.cpp should be rolling out support for this soon if they haven't already. Cactus is a but more targeted for efficient ARM execution, but I haven't been keeping up with what all they support. Would be worth a feature request i

Right. The root of the problem is that the kids are unarmed and can't defend themselves. We need an organization that does for kids what is done for the pandas [0]. [0]: https://youtu.be/sHY_xOj2M_g

Why Gitea _and_ Forgejo, rather than just one or the other?

I'm willing to bet that code would be an embarrassment to Microsoft and useless to anyone else.

I miss codeine cough syrup. It's the only thing that's ever been effective for me, despite my being fully immune to the "fun" aspects of opiates. They do remove pain, coughing, etc, but do not add any sensations or impai

My radio knowledge is not up to par, but couldn't a phased array antenna setup allow for friendlier form factors?

Magic Earth is fairly decent at traffic and dynamic routing. Worth the small subscription fee to keep them going, in my opinion.

So many bad takes and misunderstandings of the issues, all reinforced by an AI telling these fools what they want to hear.

My Linux laptop and desktop both handle gaming and waking from sleep just fine. I'd be more surprised if they didn't. You might like CachyOS or Bazzite if you try it.

Made my own from the latest docs of Ansible and Netbox for ops work. Even recent models seem to be trained on versions before some very breaking changes.

Always excited to see new things like Hister in the search space. What are the scaling limits, as far as you can tell in terms of how much can it hold before queries start breaking down or become too slow to be useful? Could it evolve into

Friendly reminder that if your user and traffic count is low, your traffic is still unique and able to be profiled. Love and use this project, though.

Genuine question: what are the good parts of Windows that keep you there? I've been such a happy gamer/coder/media editor on Linux for so long that I really don't understand how Microsoft isn't dead yet.

It's a good model for sure, but it's training set is based on some pretty old stuff. Would be good to post-train any languages / frameworks you care about being current into a LoRA for it. I even had to do that for the newer

I'm a neophyte. What makes a harness special or all that unique from another? I've had a reasonable experience with Zed and local models, but could be persuaded to put something else in the mix if there is a measurable benefit to

Everyone should distrust them equally. Only local agents in a detached network namespace are safe from data leaks. It is perfectly reasonable to assume they are using our sessions to train on, since everything else short of nuclear launch c

Some hyperbole is useful. The problem is real and serious, though short of the specific verbiage.

Iceland and Switzerland are probably the best places to keep your data safe. I'd put Norway, Sweden, Germany, and the Netherlands after that, though I don't have much specifics on how good they are at privacy these days.

The problem I have is that the Ubiquiti camera and Dream Machine I bought were sold to me as something whose features work fully offline and that I would not have to grant any 3rd-party access to my network. I refuse to grant such access fo

I am unable to accept that it is fully local, since you have to bind your network to their cloud just to accept the EULA. [0] I have 0% trust that a subsequent unbind truly severs the link, because this is such a shady thing to require in t

Now you have me wondering how badly http gzip content compression can be abused along those lines.

What a strange leap. There's rather a lot we can do to keep regular adblocking going and we don't have to just accept what Google deigns to give us. Wasting a bunch of GPU power to have an LLM hallucinate which parts of a page to

Are there services in the EU similar to Privacy.com? They along with US arm of Revolut lets you use disposable digital cards to buy things, but I don't know if such functionality is legal in the EU.
