Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST)
  • I mean the only reason I've ever used cmd prompt is to get rid of the windows registration watermark. I feel like 90% of people will never touch those tools.

    turning disposable vape batteries into a power bank (printed case)
  • It's crazy that it's legal. And they are getting even cheaper! Around 2020 there were these tiny stick disposables that were about $12-14 but now you can buy massive 5000 'puff' dispos for $10! No wonder all the kids are addicted.

    Anyway to make $20 a day online consistently?
  • There are a few good freelance transcription gigs online. I did rev.com in high-school and it was really easy. You basically just listen to an audio clip and type out what it's saying. More difficult clips pay more but I think I was able to get something like 12-14 an hour doing it.

  • Avocado oil is really good, and it's important to have a super thin layer of oil. Just put a little in the pan and then evenly coat it with a papertowel and wipe out as much oil as possible.... and then wipe it out some more. It will look like there's nothing there and thats how you want it. Place in the oven on its highest setting like 450+ for 45min, let it cool a bit and then do it again. You should do this 3-4 times for a nice seasoning.

    What are some reasons why we are definitely NOT in a simulation?
  • One reason for us not being in a simulation is that we have irrational numbers that are seemingly infinite. Like pi. In every simulation that we are able to do, there is a limit to how precise the simulation is. For example, using pi only to 10 digits is more than accurate enough for any simulation we want to run. If we currently live in a simulation, then we could assume that the creators would do the same thing to save on computing power, but we have found many irrational numbers that never end. There is also the argument that the parameters of the simulation would be dynamic and change depending on more and more precise observation, but obviously, that's impossible to know.

    Rant: Cura did the one thing a slicer shouldn't do
  • Yea I remember switching to prusa slicer because of this and I also seem to get nicer prints aside from seams not being great but I alsp haven't put much effort into trying to fix that. Never lost my settings on prusa.

    ELI5 How does chatgpt do its shit?
  • Because when you ask it to solve a math problem it isn't actually solving the problem like you and I would. It's taking your input and comparing it to the data that it has previously been trained on to give the most likely response. If it was actually properly solving the problem, then it wouldn't mess up on simple stuff. You can see this if you just give it a math problem that isn't commonly completed, like a few multiplications of large numbers in a row. It will just spit out some random large number that isn't even close.
