The continental rubber on adidas shoes lasts forever....
The rubber on their top end shoes like takumi sen and pro 3 is only 1-2mm thick but i've hit 800-900km in them
Also i'm a pretty light person so i dont wear out the foam much
Where's dave chappelle in all of this? Isnt this in his backyard? Isnt he a trump supporter now?
AI is fine if you know what you're doing and can correct the mistakes it makes (i.e. use it as fancy code completion)
I'm not a developer and i havent touched code for over 10 yrs, but when i heard about my company pushing AI tools on the devs, i thought exactly what you said. It should be a tool for experienced devs who already know what they're doing....
Lo and behold they did the opposite... They fired all the senior people and pushed AI on the interns and new grads.... and then expected AI to suddenly make the jr devs work like the expensive Sr devs they just fired...
Wtf
I have a lot more money to buy shit ever since i rid myself of that money pit we call a car....
Doesnt mean it's dead. Some projects are in maintenance mode
How many new features does a bible need???
AndBible updated 2 months ago for me on f-droid
The github doesnt look dead to me
Yes. Mounted network drives.
I think a lot of the shutdown hang problems went away when i switched to systemd automount
These things are programmed by impatient, wreckless, human, drivers.....
I cant believe they allow these things on our roads as a public beta test.
Neutral, non-american here... And i do believe that trump needs to be defeated but...
Why is it when republicans raise millions people say "politics is corrupted by money!!"
But when the dems rake in $300M its framed as a good thing?
Just dont connect it to the internet.
That's what i do with my OLED screen. It acts as a monitor for my HTPC. I dont use any of the apps on the TV
There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it.
Too many smug people think, "advertising doesnt work on me! Hah! Only weak minded normies fall for it..."
Wrong.... Advertising works. And that's the reason a shit ton of money that goes into it.
You want to know the reason why i run adblockers in my browser AND DNS levels? Because i KNOW advertising works on me.... i KNOW i'm not smart enough to outsmart the army of engineers, and copywriters generating this stuff.
Source: i work in advertising lol
I've bought and paid for every civ game since civ3...
I even paid for civ4 twice. Boxed CD and on steam.... And now you're going to treat me like a criminal with shitty DRM??? Welp, i guess i'm not buying Civ7, Sid...
No more turns....
I assume moderating the reviews would be a significant challenge for the project.
Are google maps reviews even moderated? I've found them to be complete trash for years now
Just bots and influencers giving 5 or 1 star reviews for everything
Whats the noise level if the car is driving at a reasonable speed in the city?
I imagine it's only excessively noisy if they are showing off, revving the engine, and/or streeet racing
The more you shop at dollar stores, the more money you waste.
And the more waste goes to the garbage.... This is why the earth is on fire
This isnt freeware.
"Free" in free software is free like free speech, not free as in beer.
This is one of the places where english fails. Libre vs gratis
This is not an OS behaviour. KDE is a desktop environment.
If it bothers you so much, remove the DE and use the command line, full time
2 weeks until my boston qualifying attempt. All the hard training is done now. Time to taper and recover for race day.
Probably the worst part of the training block for me. Just taking it easy, feeling like i'm losing fitness.
Well thats kind of the point of my statement about "it's 2024"
I understand game AI is a complex problem. But it seems like we havent made any progress since civ3.... And we're right in the middle of an AI hype cycle... Can we not use AI for something useful like games? Instead of just making deepfakes, disinformation, and firing workers?
It's 2024... Please fix the AI...
Biggest weakness in every civ game is the shitty AI that requires massive cheating, and terrible diplomacy (constantly making ridiculous demands, then getting mad and denouncing you if you dont hand over the goods)
My niece has an old iphone with no SIM/phone number. Only wifi internet access.
Looking for an app for both of us to be able to chat
She cant chat with me over signal because no phonee number. She chats with the rest of the family over imessage, but i have an android phone
Is there an app available for both android and iphone to let me chat with her?
Thanks
Edit: willing to self-host for extra privacy. My nieces and nephews are all young children so i definitely want to encourage/educate them to get off corporate controlled communications channels
I'm looking to qualify for boston (M41, 3:10 for my age group)
Current PR is 3:20
Is having a coach worth my money and their time? I have no delusions of being an elite runner. Is coaching a good tool for my current level?
i guess i just experienced one of the biggest downsides to the fediverse that people have been talking about. instance suddenly disappeared with no warning. i guess i've lost my follow list
Attached: 1 image @sarajw@front-end.social This blows my mind. Imagine making infrastructure so car dependent that you make walking illegal.
EDIT: if you're going to downvote the post, please comment and say why.... i'm happy to learn what kind of content is not welcome here. this is a very new community that's a bit dead and lacking content. so it's not really helpful to just downvote things without saying why at this early stage
full text from the bird site thread: >Remco Evenepoel is seeking to leave Soudal-QuickStep, various close sources have informed RadioCycling, with the world champion unhappy about the team’s future direction and doubting if they can support his ambitions, such as winning the Tour de France in 2024. > > We understand that Evenepoel’s camp have contacted a number of teams after concerns over QuickStep’s finances. Evenepoel also doesn’t believe his wage compares with that of his peers. It's thought he earns no more than €4m after bonuses, compared to Pogačar’s reported €7m. > > One close source to Evenepoel said: “It will all come down to money… and his current contract underpays him. Patrick Lefevere needs to adapt his contract or risk conflict.” > > Evenepoel has a contract until the end of 2026 and we understand there are no breakout clauses. > > Ineos Grenadiers are the clear favourites to sign Evenepoel and met with his representatives last autumn. But RadioCycling understands that Israel-PremierTech are also a genuine possibility, with Evenepoel’s camp having very close relationships with Israel staff members > > Despite rumours linking both Lidl-Trek and Bora-hansgrohe to Evenepoel, senior sources at both teams said they haven’t opened up discussions with the 23-year-old. Multiple sources have confirmed that any transfer would be a “package deal” involving Specialized. > > Signing Evenepoel, however, is not easy. Despite reports to the contrary, sources have confirmed that all outstanding bonuses have been paid, therefore there is no contract breach. Patrick Lefevere told RadioCycling: “I don’t owe €1 to anybody. Everything is paid.” > > That means the only possibility for Evenepoel departing is if someone buys out his remaining contract, something that is likely to cost in excess of €10m. Lefevere insists that he won't sell. > > He also rubbished claims Ineos owner Jim Ratcliffe could buy QuickStep’s licence.
just some rumour fodder to fill some time on TdF rest day
seems bonkers insane that IPT is in the conversation, given that sylvan adams is already regretting setting a pile of cash on fire with froomey
Everyone is getting jerked around by IBM and now Oracle adding to the drama
Meanwhile my servers are stable and debian development keeps quietly chugging along with minimal noise
Just wanted to say how much i love the debian project and all the contributors
People should recommend debian more
i installed debian with KDE for a friend years ago... is there a way to upgrade to bookworm using the "discover" GUI? or are they going to have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list?
not they they are incapable of doing something simple like this, but just wondering if there is a GUI method to do a full version upgrade
thanks
We took away two important descending tools from the riders
- Supertuck
- Fake aero bars/puppy paws (i hate that term, carlton)
Do you think that riders would take less risk on turns if they could still do supertuck? Or would riders supertuck AND take big risks on hairpins?
Not blaming Mader or saying he took risks. But the incident made me think about risk management
