I passed on the Kenshin shirts first time around because the only thing at Media Play was Samurai X. I couldn’t deal with the name. When it came out that he was busted for collecting child porn and they ended the series abruptly with him dying from radiation sickness from the a-bomb, I put it all away. I watched the remake out of nostalgia, and it is a good story. The fact that the author is a pedo, however, tainted every moment there was a child on screen.
It sounds like it would be scary, especially since it is related to your trauma somehow. I’m guessing your body is trying to escape the triggering situation, so you go there involuntary because it was the only thing you could control in the moment.
My $0.02 is that you can either pass the time or control it.
Passing the time is consuming media, playing games, whatever you need to do until enough time passes and you return to yourself. It’s probably not healthy because your body has already ‘let go’ of reality, so I can’t seeing that anchor you. If you just need medicine to start working and you have a safe movie or show, whatever, then I can’t blame you.
Controlling time is maybe an exaggeration, but actively making and things that are persistent might help anchor you. Writing, drawing, painting, any other analog prices where you contribute to the space around you.
The deal is that you must save something from the last time you were not properly connected, and everything else you create needs to go somewhere. If you are writing, drawing, whatever, you can probably collect a lot before you really have to get rid of things. If you are painting and can’t get rid of the canvases, you can always paint over them. Something like pottery might be a little more difficult, but that’s all up to you.
I get it. You know what you have to do and it’s faster if you do it yourself. It was the point I was getting at.
Not as much as asking the LLM to do so, but I feel that joining two tables is a basic task for us but I wouldn’t entrust it to the machine.
I have some experience with SQL from Access. I can see it providing some guidance for how to do a join, but the deeper you get the more it starts resembling an expanded regex. I don’t expect the generated SQL to get the lists and parenthesis correct.
Not a dev myself, but I happened to see sitting near some the other day and got their take on how they use it.
They seem to be throwing mundane tasks such as creating a project plan at it. My guess is it spits out something and they treat it like a template and edit it until it says what they want.
They also seem to be throwing their tasks at the machine and then editing what it says to fit their environment. The one said they have several terminals open and they have them spit out code, have the other check out, and the others are reviewing what he is adding.
Being a scripter, I personally think it would be a lot of work to accept the code if it isn’t flowing the way I expected. If I did start accepting it, how long until I give over my trust to the machine? Will I lose my own voice? How long until I stop relying on my research and just take what is handed to me?
The great filter for Arch is often making it do too much. I personally installed every WM all at once. It was a bad idea.
I have nfs shares on my truenas for my docker containers on proxmox. I put the info in my guest’s fstab and they usually mount at boot to /srv folders I created and specified.
Even if you could explain these things, could you prove them and provide a practical application that relies on them?
Your dress is green.
About $60. They put the transceivers on either end of the cable. Only necessary if you require 40 Gbps at distances over 2.5’ or .8m. Not necessary for most applications, including 8k streaming.
A gen5 NVME can read at about 15 Gbps, which will not saturate the thunderbolt at 20Gbps unless you have a raid array. At 40Gbps, you would need three sticks. You will ALSO need that much hardware on the other end to sustain the transfer.
Was it a Monster cable?
Gold plated, vacuum sealed $50 HDMI cables.
Basically, that’s what I have seen. It gives the average answer, and sometimes conflates information from similar topics or appears to provide solutions that don’t exist.
If your task is to take creative solutions and work them into a framework, it might help jump start ideas, but it cannot keep a logical thread.
I think that’s the thing. It’s a trivial task, but it doesn’t feel like work because they are asking for it to be done instead of doing it themselves.
I feel like I’m the last grounding point for a peer who is getting in too deep. He is running all kinds of agents and says that he is afraid of getting left behind. He tells me about openclaw, which I looked into, but not interested in automation that doesn’t produce specific repeatable results.
On his behalf I have dug into ollama, but I find that I am just as fast if not faster at the OCR text cleanup using spell checker than arguing with the bot and fixing its mistakes.
He seems to understand my frustrations very well, and my counterpoints seem to be accepted.
I think it is important to try the tools at least a few times and to attempt to integrate them into your workflow, but you need to then take a step back after you finally feel like you have a flow and compare it to your work without. Sure, you are contributing to the numbers briefly, but without being able to articulate your grievances from their perspective your words won’t have as much weight.
Normal is a baseline for a system. The average Lemming is an outlier by the fact that they are using Lemmy.
Do you have a flared phone case?
So, normal Lemmings?
Find a used one for sale. Bonus points if it has any kind of management. Replace the battery. If at all possible, have it unmount the drive at a certain percentage.
