A few jobs back I was working was on a little learjet that had a .75 thirst to weight ratio. Now that was a fun jet. Now I have 54k lbs if thrust in a plane that weighs anywhere from 100-160k lbs.

Use ranch dressing. I was informed that was for gays and city folk only. I really had no response to that nugget of wisdom.

I used to work in a job that involved handling radioactive materials. We had dosimeter badges to track long term exposure to radiation. One pass through the full body scanner at a TSA checkpoint would make the dosimeter badge come back from the lab at greater than monthly allowable exposure. I’ll take the grope.

I have the opposite. Unlimited phone data, but it throttles above some high number that I’ve never hit. Capped home internet from crapcast, 1.3 TB, I haven’t hit it but I’ve come within a couple gigabytes.

They offer unlimited data if I use their modem/router for an extra $10/mo. Of course their modem comes with the wonderful feature of a public hotspot for any other Comcast customers in the area. I’ve been thinking about getting their modem, putting it in a metal box and just using pass through with my opnsense box.

For US carriers off the top of my head, Spirit and frontier are all airbus fleets. Allegiant has one 737 in their fleet I think and is otherwise Airbus. JetBlue and Breeze have no Boeing products. All the big airlines have lots of Boeing products.

The cracks, they don’t remove our protection. The cracks still have all our code in and all our code is executed. There is even more code on top of the cracked code - that is executing on top of our code, and causing even more stuff to be executed. So there is technically no way that the cracked version is faster than the uncracked version

That’s some bigly code there.

I like the catppuccin cursors (along with the rest of catppuccin) https://github.com/catppuccin/cursors

Pistachio milk. Normally I can’t stand adding anything to my coffee, but pistachio milk is the one exception. The only problem is that it only keeps for a few days so you pretty much have to make it yourself or get it at a restaurant that makes it. Otherwise I like unsweetened almond milk.

I live in a major city. The nearest Kroger is 2 blocks away. The nearest non-kroger is 7 miles away. And I have to drive past 3 Kroger’s to get there. It’s ridiculous.

Bought a kobo recently. Bought it direct from Kobo, Walmart wasn’t involved at all in any step. Worked perfectly out of the box with Caliber too. Nice little device, library interface could use some work but it’s functional.

Well when the LLM craze collapses in the nearish future we’ll have a bunch more nuclear power in the 2030’s. So that’s good I guess?

What you are looking for is a RAG and is one of the few legitimately useful implementations of LLMs outside the wall of hype.

Working out. I finally realized that my psychological issue with working out was doing a long duration thing that I didn’t like. My solution was a high intensity short workout which doesn’t bother me at all from a mental perspective, so now I do burpees. Quick and over before I have a chance to not like it.

Personally I would argue that allowing users to install extensions, mostly adblockers, you remove what’s probably the single most common real world vector for attackers, ads. So while chromium browsers may be more secure I would say you’re probably less likely to run into a problem with a firefox based browser with ublock origin on it, mobile or desktop.

flax seeds. Lots of fiber, omega-3s, protein, and vitamin B. The best part is that ground flax seed tastes like nothing so you can add it to whatever.

Just mix in some flaxseed meal whenever you cook anything that involves mixing. It doesn’t taste like anything and has lots of fiber and omega-3s.

I couldn’t read the menu but I ordered what I think was spicy chicken stir fry. Was good, would order random things from the Chinese menu again.

My pixel 6 is about 3 years old and the only wear I can see on it is a single little micro scratch in the top right corner of the screen that I can’t see without a light reflecting off of it. I don’t bother with a screen protector, just a thin silicon case. Battery is fine for about 2 days of normal use even though I regularly use a wireless charger.

For reference, Air Canada would need to give ~91% raise to get pilot pay back in line with where Air Canada pilots were in 2001. Post 9/11 the pilots took a terrible ‘save the company from bankruptcy’ deal, then during negotiations in 2012 the government forced a return to work deal with another terrible pilot contract.

For my single user instance, I can be charitable and say that it’s running on hardware that I already had that is running regardless on spare otherwise unused resources with a already registered domain so the only cost is time spent setting it up. Or I could apply all the costs from the server Lemmy, then it would be about $1200 initially plus ~$10/mo per user.
