I've never been able to get over their children's shoes branding. As a kid I felt the tv was flooded with light up sketchers ads and I can't shake that impression that they are only made for kids.

I used to enjoy watching smaller youtubers, but everytime I've given one a chance lately it has been unbearably clear that it was written by an llm. Supposedly people have ingested so much llm writing that they've naturally started writing in a similar style.

I moved to a corne a few years ago and loved it. Lately I was missing number-keys and had bought a 3d printer so tried making a custom-fit Charybdis inspired keyboard, but my lack of soldering skills lead to a keyboard that was unusable. For some reason I pivoted to a totem (which has fewer keys than my corne) but I absolutely love it so far. Still looking for a solution to gaming on it, but for daily work it's been phenomenal.

I also went down this path but for a different reason. Game streaming to my steam deck from my ultrawide monitor wasn't practical. The games on whales project is really good, it's not VM but rather containerized game sessions. It has numerous issues with podman sadly which is why I now use edvi and various scripts to just generate a fake monitor to stream.

Same issue here, wanted to give it a shot but ran into that error trying to load the model in lm studio.

Everytime I upload a package with altool, it makes a copy of the package somewhere in /var/folders. Luckily rebooting the computer cleans this up so it's not the issue you are running into, but if I'm not careful about rebooting the systems, our CI/CD stops working until I get physical access to the machines for a reboot.

It would be great if people actually did this, but in the US that is not the case. There are only so many people you can convince to move off of their main platform, and usually you have to meet people where they are.

I definitely fall into this trap sometimes. Oftentimes that simple order of ops swap will fix my issue, but when it doesn't, it's easy to get stuck in the "just one more change" mindset instead of taking a step back to re-assess.

Looks to be back now.

I was thinking the same thing, looks like a hug of death.

Netflix is fine so long as you don't live in Japan (I wonder how other countries are). They only give Japanese subtitles for most anime here. Netflix produced anime do have a great breadth of options for subtitles and audio though.

Mostly valid. There are a few gotchas but for most use cases it is drop-in. I think I've run into issues with the podman socket, and there were some permissions problems I had getting games-on-whales setup in userspace.

Pretty sure it varies depending on where you live. iirc When I was in SF the tickets would get distributed ahead of time and the sweeper would follow within an hour or so. Once the sweeper went by you were free to re-park.

Librewolf is great, but from my experience the default settings are painful for daily use. My biggest gripe is the auto-clear cookies on restart. I understand why it could be useful to some users, but for most I doubt they'd want that in a daily browser. This makes Librewolf need tweaking just as much as Firefox does which kind of ruins the point of it in my experience. (although you are tweaking for usability rather than privacy)

I very recently was in the market for a 3d printer and was interested in making a voron or something diy, but even ordering parts from china it would've cost about double just getting a pre built with better software presets, less room for error, and about the same specs from a Chinese company. It's hard for me to comprehend how diy buying parts individually from AliExpress can be more expensive before shipping,but I guess that's what economics of scale get you.
