I am not really concerned with which one is better or smarter but with which one is more resource intensive. There is a lot of opacity about the cost in a holistic sense. For example, a recent mini model from OpenAI is the cheapest smart (whatever that may mean) model available right now. I wanna know if the low cost is a product of selling on a loss or low profit margin, or of an abundance of VC money and things like that.
What is the parameter count for the famous proprietary models like gpt 4o and claude 3.5 sonnet?
For 20 weeks, McKinsey will study other cities that use containers — like Paris and Amsterdam — and identify what types of bins would work best for New York City. The contract is a relatively small project for the consulting giant, which last year paid nearly $600 million to settle allegations tied to its role giving sales advice to opioid manufacturers.
I hate this timeline.
The shameful answer is that the most convenient method of setting up immich is a docker compose stack but I have podman installed instead.
WOW man this is just incredible. I had actually finished setting up syncthing and syncing with it but this is just so much smoother. Syncthing is nice but it has some weirdness. Like this app's "copy local to remote" (instead of sync) is hidden in advanced configuration while it seems like a useful use case to be.
Backing up photos and videos from an Android phone?
There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.
Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.
Why against posting the article in the post body? I find that pretty useful.
Has the site become better or worse with time?
As far as I can tell, .world is great for the reddit emigres. There have been disagreements amd drama (as is tradition with online communities especially federated ones) but the instance is doing fine it seems.
I don't know about this API blackout. I am talking about something else entirely. When Reddit migration was at its peak, registrations on this instance (lemmy.ml). The reason given was that the devs did not want to overwhelm themselves with the abruptly increased administrative and moderation responsibilities. At that time, Lemmy (the software) was facing significant performance issues as well, owing to the fact that that many users had not used Lemmy concurrently before that.
On the other hand, I tried to find the announcement post for this. (I remember one existing.) But I couldn't. Have I hallicinated an elaborate scenario? I am not sure. Will try to look again.
lemmy.ml shut down registration during the migration of sweaty reddit nerds.
Thanks for this. But the fdroid release seems outdated compared to GitHub.
I tried one distro and now the other distros confuse and scare me.
Not justifiable but one can weave some twisted logic to explain it. With single player games there is even less explanation.
I see that you still have not been able to recover from your brief exposure to world systems theory.
My bad. I read the readme but not the post.
Where did you get all those subtitles from?
For a live service game like Helldivers you could at least logically justify the account requirement but for an offline game like GoW it will just piss people.
Why doesn't the app just let you enter the credentials in a settings page or something like that?
Margit, the Fell Omen
What a ridiculously difficult boss. I currently have a full melee build and I had to use every cheese in the book to beat him.
Elden Ring reviews are absolutely nuts
OpenCritic and MetaCritic both have ridiculously high aggregate scores for it. Early reviews tend to generally be higher but an average 97 score from 95 critics is probably the best I have ever seen.
I am reading that it is easier to get into compared to other From Software titles. When playing the network test I didn't get this feeling. But either way I highly recommend giving the game a try if you haven't played a Souls game before. It is an entirely new story and the lore from what I am hearing is very rich. And the gameplay is tight as always. If you don't want to buy you can even pirate it once it has been released provided your PC can run it. I don't think it is using Denuvo.

Content creators have been playing the full build of the game for a while now and the embargo for it just ended
There will be a lot of spoilers for it on YouTube. So if you are someone that cares about that, be careful.

Welcome to Elden Ring
In case anyone is interested in this game, I created a subcommunity to discuss the game with fellow lemurs.
A question about the Great (American) Resignation
I see this being mentioned a bit in American media. I understand why this can happen. Capital does not want to pay living wages to the working people and workers do not want to work for pennies. There is no such thing as labour shortage, only capital not willing to pay.
But if people are just walking away from jobs, how are they affording subsistence? I have seen restaurants being closed because they don't have workers. So it is not only people who can afford savings who are quitting.
I can't phrase the question very well but the bottom line is this: I don't understand. So any insight you might want to share is welcome.
Thoughts on Bitwarden?
I personally use passwordstore.org with a git repo on a personal VPS. But I wanted to set up a password manager for my boomer parents and looks like Bitwarden is one of the better options out there.
The problem is that the free tier sounds a bit too good to be true so I am worried that it might just disappear or discontinue one day. Any idea if this fear is unfounded or not?
If you have been using Bitwarden please share your experience with it. Would like to hear.
Which file manager do you use?
I use one called X-Plore. It's actually very good. Even has a WiFi server, conpressed archive support, etc. but the downsides are that it's close sourced and some features are behind a paywall (though IMO they are worth it).
So I was thinking of moving to some free or open source software. Any recommendations?
Anyone tried creating an init.lua for neovim 0.5.0 nightly?
I gave it a go last night and it is way trickier then I expected. Simple things like setting options are not very convenient at the moment. I also tried to get packer.nvim running but the README was not very helpful.
Looks like I will be sticking with init.vim for some time.

Haven't tried it yet but it looks super neat.
Signal without Google Play Services?
Apparently Signal doesn't run in the backgroud and give notifications if I don't have Google Play Services enabled.
Anyway to work around this? Seems uncool to have a privacy focused messenger that relies on Google shit.
Is using paths to draw curves while inking in Krita cheating?
I have gotten hold of a cheap drawing tablet and having a lot of fun with it. I only have experience with gesture sketching with pencil on paper but wanted to try inking and colouring too.
Drawing long curves with an ink pen brush preset is something I am having some trouble with. It is difficult for me to draw smooth curves and when I join multiple stroked together I get varying width and clear nodes which looks bad.
Would using a path to draw such curves be cool? Or should I just practice more?
Any updates on the ChapoTrapHouse subreddit migration?
Just wondering what the discord is up to.
Who's your favourite host from the podcast?
Nima Shirazi or Adam Johnson?
