Stopping and looking at some birds and what they're doing is really relaxing. Be it pigeons, seaguls looking for fries or if lucky a crow or rook.

The corvids looking back wondering what you're doing and they'll communicate back too.

I think becoming a person who would stop and do that, or go birdwatch in general, is probably the important part.

This can't be sustainable.

The few groups I'm in, local wildlife and pet bird groups, mainly consist of people asking questions that need to and are usually answered by posting links to local resources or regulations.

Any MMORPG?

Reading would probably help the most. Read some classics, don't worry too much about the plot beforehand, dive in. Gives a ton of new ways to look at the world.

"oh I wonder if it will have an off-white background" guessing game when seeing anything posted

Yes, and I do the same for all DC adapters. Writing voltage etc so it's easy to find

You'd get denied getting connected or expanding your business or adding a car charger, as is reality in parts of Scandinavia, if it was an issue.

Depending in what you are doing, you can unlock a lot more knowledge by translating your query to Chinese and then asking that. :)

Let's not think about how effectively we'll be able to snuff out emerging divergence

Eve online holdem? Amazing. Was a banker there for a bit while I was working as a poker dealer IRL at night. Won a fully fitted mom in a game, lost it in another:D

I've been thinking about trying it out again. I re-visited it a bit in 2012 and have lately been recommended some youtube videos for catching up on lore and larger changes.

It was an amazing game back then, my only issue being my inability to not spend all free time in it.

Still hanging on to Whisper for transcribing and translating audio in real time locally. I play mmos with Chinese people and paying for translation APIs would get expensive quick.

If anyone has suggestion for fast realtime and good enough alternatives with low vram, since I game at the same time, I'd love to know.

The performance is absolutely atrocious with default settings, but it's a nice project.

There's a huge number of gamers moving to things like CachyOS. Some are stuck because of Valorant, LoL or Battlefield DRM, but it's a big move lately.

No, I couldn't find it a few seconds later when I realized what I saw. It felt like a case of alt-code naming to prevent showing up in search, unless being presented in the top ad spot.

I saw a google authenticator copy (using the old icon but named Authenticator) about two weeks ago. It was the top result but an ad and not by Google. Sad I didn't screenshot it, couldn't find it when searching Google Authenticator again.

Can't even tell if you're real or a bot by reading one comment.

Great times!

Making blog posts about AI that make it apparent that the tech is going whoosh is a choice.

It's missing some weird ones for having others operating as part of the same public transport systems too.

Old data? Where's the data from?

Pretty sure it just pushes on nerves there, and there's a ton. And cracking/popping maybe spreads the gas stuff around more.

Pretty sure it's not in your head. When I was younger I had growth hormone treatment for a while. I needed to crack more ofthen when on it, and less when I wasn't, and it was apparently a common side effect.

Being in discomfort because my hands feel stiff and under tension is also annoying. It's not like I'm doing it for fun?

Are people actually doing this as a fun thing because there's nothing better to do?

I can feel some kind of tension after a short bit of using my hands, and cracking my knuckles relieves it and allows me to continue without any issues. Usually I have to crack them before falling asleep, since the feeling of tension keeps me from sleeping. Doctors never thought this was an issue and I have no joint damage (checked for other reasons).

Many times I've seen crows as well as smsller birds zoom along a field, getting blown straight up in the air by the updraft at the bank with the road going through it, only to fly back down and do it again.

Plenty of fun to be had.

Absolutely, and you'll have all kinds of fixes for the symptoms throughout the project.

COBOL isn't hard, the tooling around it on old systems are a pain though.

You might not have the average display.

But, can you reason more about your intent with the tone of your comment?

It's usually where i get news about custom LineageOS builds for various devices

Good looking qr codes is nice, but doing them using AI feels like a huge waste?

I run it offline too, don't want to depend on separate services.

I use TranscriptionSuite, which is focused on offline transcription, and supports Parakeet as well as whisper and others (https://github.com/homelab-00/TranscriptionSuite) The dev was sweet enough to improve the live mode GUI so that I and some friends can use it when playing on Chinese mmo servers.

I use Systran/faster-whisper-medium for real-time subtitling, but you need to get used to the context it's used it and the weirdness it translates into. Parakeet has great mandarin>CN text, but running that + a translation model has been tricky and I never got it fast.
