I remember doing work experience at school in the computer lab. Thought I was gonna learn fun stuff on the servers, ended up cleaning gunk from the rollers if every mouse in the entire school (And cleaning every PC out, and flashing entire labs one by one with updates OS…)

Kudos. Been donating plasma for a bit in AU, it’s very worthwhile even if there’s no cash incentive (yet). They’re pretty desperate for people

9k USD, one steam deck in there, 20 year old account. Zero micrograms, all collecting games

I snazzled

Very exhausting, especially when your stupid brain makes you roleplay possible future conversations with people in your head all day. Difficult to focus and so exhausting

The AI bullshit has totally pushed me into full Linux/grafeneOS. I’m glad I upgraded all my tech before AI/tarrif wars started, looks like I’m riding all this out with a focus on FOSS software.

Never been so glad to have always run a homelab.

For the selfhosters, come jump into Immich - it’s google photos at home, full control of your data.

Ouch, yeah that’s frustrating. I’m considering doing my own image (prei stall my own apps) which will help with issues like this and allow consistent apps across machines.

Feels like a sledgehammer for a nail though

I had this with a sunshine service being added as a user service in bazzite. I created a clean new user and it booted, confirming it was user based. Took a bunch of binary searching to work out what the issue was.

I’ve since done my own autostart setup for sunshine and it’s been fine ever since.

Crappy UX!

Dave the diver nd a bit of no man’s sky

Ongoing case here in Australia with a lady accused of murdering her ex and ex-inlaws. Invites them to lunch of beef Wellington and death cap mushrooms.

3 died fairly awful deaths in the following days/weeks, 1 survived after intensive care.

Accused of trying to murder the ex 4 prior times too.

The “Mushroom lady” case absolutely captivated us for weeks

On one hand yes please.

On the other, I think I’d rather them do a reimagining like ss1 remake ended up being

Steve looks highly unimpressed

This is good news, I’d go the DX version for the odd homelab Dev stuff I do.

I’ve probably quadrupled my Gametime from the deck. Used to be hard around job and kids, but now I am gaming during work commutes/hotels during work trips, and little 10-15 min pauses during the day I would have wasted on the phone instead.

Watching them in valves rear view mirror I suspect

I run ollama and auto1111 on my desktop when it’s powers on. Using open-webui in my homelab always on, and also connected to openrouter. This way I can always use openwebui with openrouter models and it’s pretty cheap per query and a little more private that using a big tech chatbot. And if I want local, I turn on the desktop and have local lamma and stab diff.

I also get bugger all benefit out of it., it’s a cute toy.

Haven’t had any rate limiting issues on my private instance. I really thought it’d stop working honestly.

Not sure why you’d be quickly rate limited as a single user, from the GH issues I read they expected we’d have no issues keeping under API limits

Only for niche topics, and using a self-hosted private front end (redlib) I deleted my account at the API death, so it’s only for researching things usually.

Finished life is strange yesterday. Been on my backlog forever, kicking myself for not getting to it sooner. And no, I’m not ok.

Playing some mindless grim dawn on the deck since to scratch the ARPG itch, yet to decide if I move onto LiS: BtS soon or if I need some casual pallette cleansers before I’m emotionally ready for more.
