This may not be helpful, but I have found it difficult to limit screentime. Tried it many times, never sustained it. "Fastening" for a week or two was much easier and had sustained effects. See other comments on how to lock yourse

What are the go-to Synology alternatives atm? Was going to get a Synology box for a small team but could not get what we wanted for a reasonable price from them. I won't be the one maintaining it, otherwise I would get a linux client f

Are people typing Bitcoin addresses by hand? Aren't they far more likely to c&p a spoofed Bitcoin address?

Except both apple and Google earn a cut on revenue so they don't have any interest in stopping the money flow.

Due to all the methane leaks, gas isn't even as much cleaner than coal as it was purported to be... But hey monitoring programs got cut so I guess that solves the problem...

Apple made the mistake of making a grand announcement and then not following through. They may have the talent, and even the hardware, but the product is still missing. OpenAIs open weight model runs great on my iMac, when is apple going to

Note that "Aerospace" is largely arms, not passenger airplanes. It's the billion-dollar bomb the U.S. has dropped on Afghanistan, and air-to-air missiles that cost 10s of millions of dollars each to manufacture. There aren&#x

We often think of everyday behavior in terms of cost-benefit, but that's not all it is. Waiving the fee is a signal to indicate that taking public transit is socially desirable. That could be an effective nudge for many who are indecis

Also, someone looked at the package and the description, that is why this issue has been raised.

I have been using Debian Trixie for a few months in testing now, I can attest that its a great, stable operating system. Definitely better than Ubuntu in terms of user experience.

What really gets me is that my use of ai is really uneven. That "5% of users" is me one month of the year. In other words, it's unlimited use, unless I really need it. Not a fair business model for sure.

None of this is efficiency. Our local NOAA office has lost their sparse janitorial staff. That doesn't make the agency more efficient. That just means an overworked person making 6 figures now has to figure out how to procure toilet pa

How would heat dissipation work with these layers semiconductors? Am I mistaken or is cooling usually the key challenge?

This is interesting news, for the lack of a better word. I've met more than one person with downs syndrome. They have definitely enriched my life and shown me a different way of looking at the world.

There is basically two different configurations. If your `sources.list` is explicitly on Trixie, it will stay there. If it is on testing, then you will get the next testing release in time.

Have been using Trixie on my laptop for a year (?) now, it has been a very positive experience. I had brought a brand new, very recent ThinkPad, not considering that the relevant drivers would not be in Debian Stable yet. Now on Trixie, hav

Couldn't this time reasonably well on a local machine is you have some kind of neutral processing chip and enough ram? Conversion to MD shouldn't require a huge model.

Don't even need to go that far. Provide a locked-down computer and have students write essays in a dedicated space. I have personally done that and it was a reasonably good experience.

With three or four major GUIs out there, that's a bit of a sweeping statement, no? What's the negative that applies to all distros?

The one way forward for them would have been to maintain their quality, but they decided to cash in on their monopoly instead. Peak short-termis.
