Even better is your monthly streaming bill being $10 in electricity and a $5 VPN subscription (if you’re in a country where your ISP sends angry letters and you don’t opt for Usenet instead)

I don’t remember actually but I checked the file metadata and I have the template in my downloads folder next to this which has an exif tag of 2 minutes later with gimp metadata so I’m pretty sure I must have made it, which makes it a bit more impressive since I probably just sent it to friends privately and didn’t post it anywhere it could have been scraped for training.

Huh, I already signed up for it because they started requiring it a while back to access historical tax return documents through the IRS website.

I’m curious if it could solve the traffic light and crosswalk ones, I would try but I’m out of free image uploads from asking it to explain memes to test its cultural knowledge.

You could end up working for a company that develops free software so that’s one way. My company develops an open source science tool and it’s free for anyone to hack on, run their own copy, and use for commercial purposes, but we sell support which usually seems to involve being paid to develop certain features and fix certain bugs, as well as advise on how to keep their system running smoothly.

I just discovered how easy ollama and open webui are to set up so I’ve been using llama3 locally too, it was like 20 lines in docker compose, and although I’ve been using gpt3.5 on and off for a long time I’m much more comfortable using models run locally so I’ve been playing with it a lot more. It’s also cool being able to easily switch models at any point during a conversation. I have like 15 models downloaded, mostly 7b and a few 13b models and they all run fast enough on CPU and generate slightly slower than reading speed and only take ~15-30 seconds to start spitting out a response.

Next I want to set up a vscode plugin so I can use my own locally run codegen models from within vscode.

Apparently it’s not very hard to negate the system prompt…

I’ve even experienced this in the 3D printing community, where I design a highly parametric model and put lots of effort into making all of the major dimensions and qualities parameterized and dynamically adjustable, with lots of bounds checking and value clamping, with all the parameters at the top of my scad file with comments explaining what each variable does.

And then someone comes along to remix my model, says I don’t want to install openscad, and just scales the entire output stl to change the dimensions, squashing all the features of the model in the process (instead of having the size gracefully adjust with all the features moving around to account), and leaving anybody starting from their work with a hard to remix mesh with no parameters.

If only they could include phones that are within those 7 years but already ended support. I’m still on a Pixel 5 which was released 3.5 years ago.

Luckily lineage is keeping it going strong on android 14.

Yep they give the command in the article but to install an APK, all you have to do is plug into a computer that has the APK downloaded and use adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block appname.apk

I used it on android 14 and it looks like it’ll also work on 15

I’m glad the adb flag is still an option, I had to use it to install the app for my ebike wheel which is the only way to adjust the assist level / Regen brake strength. Maybe eventually I’ll try rewriting the app but I just don’t have time.

Lemmy really needs pixelfed’s naive bayes spam detection, it would be able to easily classify the new accounts after classifying one post as spam, then it would be 0 seconds wasted.

This is one of the reasons I never want a car with it’s own internet connection. I’ll stick to plugging in my phone, where I’m very stingy with which apps even get location data, much less the “physical activity history” permission which allows this kind of continuous tracking (and which is usually needed because it uses Google’s algorithms / possibly neural nets to guess whether you’re driving or walking based on accelerometer / gyro / gps / magnetometer sensor fusion).

Then it would be called buying puts instead of shorting

I only do web development, but my networking knowledge mostly comes from being the designated person to call the ISP for tech support and being in charge of setting up the WiFi in every place that I’ve lived, in addition to participating and running community scale mesh wifi tech meetups for many years (think NYCMesh except just 4 guys who never accomplished much aside from buying and flashing lots of routers with openwrt lmao)

I also ran 12Us of homelab for a few years in my basement, which was powered by an overkill fiber to the home setup (courtesy of tricking Comcast into undercharging me for gigabit pro) that necessitated a 10G switch and firewall.

Your ISP knows the Mac address of your router since it requests a public IP from them using DHCP. That’s why if you contact support they usually can confirm the brand of your router by doing an oui lookup.

In theory the FBI could have collected a list of MACs and optionally used an ASN lookup on the public IP and then handed each ISP their list of MACs, which the ISP could associate back to customers to contact. It would only not work for customers who spoof their router WANs ethernet mac.

But I think just patching it is a normal and fine solution imo.

I’m not a cook but just a general fan of commercial / industrial products (always getting jealous of the stuff I see in my engineer friends machine shops at work, materials science labs, etc), and one of my favorite sites to get ideas for when it comes to household / kitchen stuff is the webstaurant store. I don’t necessarily even buy much stuff because some of the items can only be bought by the case, but it’s fun to browse and if I see something I like I can check if it’s available anywhere else. I have bought a commercial style tall recycling bin and some generic 5 gallon bag in box soda syrups since you could just buy 1 of those, which save a lot of money if you carbonate at home compared to buying soda at the grocery store.

Anyway they have a surface sanitizer section so you might get some ideas on what to get by browsing there. Again some are by the case but at least a few you can buy a single spray bottle or a single gallon: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/35535/surface-sanitizing-and-disinfecting-chemicals.html

And of course be sure to read all the directions and warnings since they might be used differently than you would at home, or have different requirements.

Isn’t Miracast for sending video data? The thing I like about Chromecast is that the phone or remote app just tells the Chromecast where to load the media directly from, and then only sends playback control commands. That makes it a lot lighter resource wise because you don’t need to proxy the stream through a device like a phone that wants to go to sleep to save battery.

You also have to pay the uninsured motor vehicle fee when you renew registration, so that comes out it $500/year or $40/mo. So you end up paying 1/3 to 1/2 of insurance and don’t get any coverage.

Note that the 2x10G is SFP+ not SFP. I was briefly confused. I have tons of SFP+ stuff but no SFP gear whatsoever
