OMAD or IF works really well for a lot of people. What you eat and when you eat are critical, not just how many calories are going in and out. CICO is far from the whole story when it comes to metabolism and your endocrine system.

Other than “not seeing the use case” I think the meme is right on. People hate Windows but don’t want to deal with Linux, people hate being trapped in the walled gardens of Microsoft or Sony consoles, but don’t want to deal with a full-on gaming PC. Kinda like how when iPads came out people where like, this is worse than a phone and worse than a laptop, who are these things even for?

Trump is trying to get an F-18 shot down, just the same as he was praying a nat’l guard member would get shot down, so he can justify doing whatever the fuck he wants.

They are useful for doing the kind of boilerplate boring stuff that any good dev should have largely optimized and automated already. If it’s 1) dead simple and 2) extremely common, then yeah an LLM can code for you, but ask yourself why you don’t have a time-saving solution for those common tasks already in place? As with anything LLM, it’s decent at replicating how humans in general have responded to a given problem, if the problem is not too complex and not too rare, and not much else.

I don’t like to judge idiots too harshly, but if you bought a product marketed as an encrypted toilet camera you deserve whatever happens to you

🎶He blows up boats,

And the survivors too

While he drinks that whiskey down

He chats on apps

That are insecure

And he’ll never be held to account🎶

pressure cook some whole oats (like the kind they sell for horses, not rolled oats/oatmeal), spawn on that in mason jars, then transfer to a bed of pressure-cooked coco coir when fully colonized, mix, cover, and wait.

Yeah this is the kind of shit you literally couldn’t put into a fictional movie because viewers would not buy that a first-world democracy would do that to their citizens. You’d need an intentionally over-the-top cartoonishly evil fictional entity like Vault-Tec to even approach a “Moron Corps” scenario in fiction…

And don’t forget Gomer Pyle.

Where I live I see mom and dad getting pulled over all the time for going 30 in a 25 on the way to drop Little Timmy off at preschool, so different everywhere I guess. I wish cops would focus on catching people who’ve committed major crimes rather than being citation money printing presses.

Well good, get it on the books for future historians if nothing else.

Oh yeah, I was not even considering trying to jam everything in that tiny case and getting the cooling and cabling sorted out. I would for sure skip that and just go with a standard mid-size tower, were I going to try this (I’m not)

Maybe he’s referring to the fact that McNamara, the architect of this and all-around terrible person, was an Elder in his Presbyterian church during the time he was also conceiving and running this program. IDK, that’s the first direct connection I could find. That, and a lot of this was under Kennedy, who was famously and publicly and proudly the first Catholic president. So I agree it’s not a great look for Kennedy in terms of his Catholicism being a major part of his identity, to have allowed his SecDef to run this program on “the least among us” if you will.

Holy crap this is what Forrest Gump was about I never realized…

Well first we don’t know the price, other than “like a PC” unless I missed something.

Second, sure, someone like me, who already has the background and experience building gaming PCs, maybe (maybe) I could replicate most of the specs at the same cost, possibly even improve them in a few areas. But economies of scale, the labor on my end, shifting market prices… Unless Valve is marking these things up like 50% or more I just don’t see how an individual is going to compete on cost once you include labor.

Wait Dad, you just gonna leave us hanging without a link?? 🤣

yeah aren’t these wild? I have a handful I use with the local models on my PC, and they are, quite literally, magic spells. Like not programming exactly, not English exactly, but like an incantation lol

oh awesome, and thanks for sharing the link…just once I’d like to be under-informed in a positive direction rather a negative direction 😪

Boy EA really hit rock bottom and just kept on a-diggin til they struck oil didn’t they.

Lol Mike Johnson done fucked up. Discharge petitions essentially mean your own caucus hates you and can’t work with you, so they use the opposition to get around you. There have been like an average of about 1 of these per congress over the last 100 years, now we have two huge ones in just a couple months.
