Is this different from !localllama@sh.itjust.works?

That community is quite active already, and helped me get up and running and interested in local LLMs.

Or PFAS

As far as I understand it, you shouldn’t put peroxide on most, or maybe even any, wounds. It indiscriminately kills good and bad bacteria as well as your body’s cells. So it can make the wound take much longer to heal.

Similar, but I think different, with iodine. You shouldn’t use it in most cases.

The recommendation is to use warm soapy water to rinse/clean the wound really good. That’s all.

If the wound is deep enough or gnarly enough that this doesn’t seem reasonable? Well, peroxide wasn’t gonna help you anyway, go to the doctor.

I’m happy to be wrong here, to be corrected. But this is how I understand it.

Also I do keep peroxide in my cupboard, as well as rubbing alcohol. Their uses just aren’t for wounds.

My wife has one, I don’t like to use it, it’s too aggressive for me.

I can reach my back with my arms. To get the spot right between my shoulders I have to reach up and come down from the top with one arm, while using my other hand to grab my elbow and pull it to push my hand low enough to get it more effectively.

Yeah that seems quite disingenuous for a device that literally popularized a whole new platform for PC gaming, and has spearheaded the efforts of Windows games on Linux, to the point of actually outperforming native installations of many games.

Bad journalism is bad.

They did not nest properly on boost. But I guess that’s not surprising, we only just recently got them at all

Maybe.

I’m not a big ai believer, and I’m not saying it’s gonna become like a human brain anytime even remotely soon, if ever.

But the idea behind how it works, the specialized uses of neural networks, have already borne much fruit, and I don’t think we’ve seen the end of it yet. Things like cancer detection, antibiotic creation, or the massive breakthrough in protein folding, and probably more I haven’t heard of yet. Things like these are big money, and actually practical uses for “AI” and I don’t think they’re ever going away.

Also the AI slop that’s being generated in the art world, for as terrible as it is, is just too easy to make semi convincing, semi pleasant graphics and things. Too much money to be saved for companies to ever let it go completely. Even if it never gets better quality, which it probably will.

I guess my point is, I don’t think it’s ever going away. A bit pessimistic, but… eh 🤷‍♂️ At least the medical breakthroughs should trickle down to us, eventually, for a price.

It’s an interesting trend these days, people wearing headphones and earbuds everywhere they go.

It’s not my preference, and I get that it’s a personal choice.

I agree there are definitely times where it makes sense, alone at the gym for example.

But I see groups of kids walking around, most of them with at least one or both headphones/earbuds on/in, and I’m like, what are you listening to? I can’t imagine doing that.

But obviously some people like it, it’s just not me 🤷‍♂️

It’s funny, my brain scanned right over that, I could’ve sworn he said crumple because I expected crumple

Yeah I preordered for sure

Right?

I get it, more frames more better, and I agree.

But I don’t expect the steam deck to be a super performance machine. And personally, I am not that affected by 30fps. Below 30 it does start to bother me, and above 30 is significantly smoother.

I’m currently playing through HFW, and I can average about 40, it drops to 30 at times, and occasionally dips below, but by and large I’m very happy with it.

IIRC it’s glued in, and there might be other barriers beyond that

IDK about non issue. I have a framework laptop, and even though the battery is very easily replaceable, I still set the charge limit to 80%.

I don’t require the extra charge the majority of the time, and now I don’t have to worry about replacing my battery for a much longer period of time.

Though I agree, for as serviceable as the steam deck is, a little more attention could’ve been paid to the battery situation.

Thanks for this, but I apologize, I’m still confused.

You’ve described fixed gear, and geared, I think we now agree as to what these are.

But what is a single speed bike? I’ve never heard of it. Is it a geared bike, with only one gear, but still has a tensioner? So it can’t have hub brakes? Why would such a thing exist?

Good to know lol, thanks

Oh I get it, I guess I never heard it pronounced that way. British maybe?

As an American, this disagrees with my worldview. But I also don’t know enough about the British version to say your wrong 🤷‍♂️

I never watched the British one, and I don’t care for the American one, too cringey. Makes me sympathetic cringe.

I’m so confused. Drawbacks of a geared bike? As opposed to what? Flintstoning it?

I must just not be understanding what you mean.

I’ve ridden bikes with no derailer or gears, when you backpedal, you brake.

And I’ve ridden mountain bikes with front and rear gear changing.

I know there are super exotic driveshaft bikes, and electric etc, but besides that, what could you be talking about?

Could you elaborate? I’m dumb.

According to my pet peeve, this looks fine? I just scrolled past a meme that said something like “download a ISO” and I was like gah, no, it’s AN ISO.

I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on the 1.0 of freecad.

I don’t use CAD professionally, and even my hobby usage is less than it was, and it was only a dozen or two small projects.

I had never used freecad, always fusion 360. I’ve been away for awhile, and also switched to Linux in the meantime. I needed to make a simple object, and tried freecad 1.0, and I literally could not intuit how to begin. Not a single shape, I was so lost, it was very frustrating.

I tried onshape and got a bit further, but still don’t like the corporate nature of it.

I’m not trying to slam freecad, I really want it to work, and when I have more time to sit down and study it, I want to try again. But in the meantime I went back to fusion 360 in a VM, which was very sluggish, but at least I knew where everything was.
