SpotWX is what I use for accurate weather and the ability to quickly check several different models. I learned about it in my avalanche course and it’s been great albeit with a subpar UI

Anyone with a gaming PC can spin up ComfyUI and produce an image like this with a fraction of the power of playing a single round of CS:GO.

Island - Aldous Huxley

Less radicalized and more just opened my thinking about how society could be and how imperial forces and people’s desires get in the way constantly. More of a ‘this is why utopia can’t happen’ vs Brave New World’s ‘look at this dystopia’

It’s not really the eastern plains though. It seems that’s tossed around to make it sound like she absconded to the rural, barren wasteland to find hick voters because she’s being outcast from the Republican party - while part of her district is the plains there’s virtually no one there. It’s Douglas county where all her constituents actually are and that’s the wealthy southern suburbs of Denver. I’m fact, she has one of if not the wealthiest districts in the state. DougCo has seen some demographic shake ups recently, however, so we’ll see how long that contingent of folks keeps voting red as they recently ousted their conservative school board.

Roll your own with a mini-PC?

Time to invest in an infrared thermometer to check things out

I say do it on square footage. One 4000sqft house counts the same as 2 x 2000sqft homes

I fear this is just going to accelerate companies offshoring jobs in the professional services and tech spaces and severely hurt our research institutes… H1-Bs have definitely been used to drive down wages in certain industries but this doesn’t seem to be an effective way of combatting that

The opposite with HEB, they give to blue causes and candidates

Have you ever walked into a gas station and thought, “man, I really wish this was the size of a Walmart and filled with cheap trinkets ala FiveBelow but beaver themed, had children running everywhere, and mediocre bbq”?

I’m SaaS solutioning / sales and yeah, the shit is flying off the shelves at the enterprise level. AI is powerful and here to stay, what we have to worry about is HOW it’s being used. We desperately need regulation in the space especially as it relates to lending, insurance, and healthcare

Again, please read the article. The more apt comparison would be if McDonald’s Plumbing started selling and marketing burgers. This is a pretty straightforward case and will likely be settled for a sum that can be found in Netflix’s/AEG’s couch cushions. Also, “maliciousness” is not a factor in determining trademark infringement.

Did you read the article? They are now doing a live tour of KPop Demon Hunter" and they have at least one example of there being confusion in the market. AEG and Netflix could have promoted the tour as HUNTR/X: KPop Demon Hunters or something to avoid this. I suspect there will be a settlement as just because there was no confusion when it was just a movie doesn’t mean they can go into live concerts with the same name.

Tbh, the Midwest gives the US a bad name when it comes to food preferences. The south spices the hell out of foods, the southwest has a ton of Mexican influence, the west coast has both Mexican and Asian influence in their cuisine

For me the pieces that didn’t work were all the customizations I had with gnome shell namely around “quake-style” terminal, cursors/themes, and some app panels like tailscale. I’ve been able to resolve 90% of those issues but it took some time and was frustrating but that comes with using anything new

Ehh, I loved Gnome with the bottom panel hidden and tiling manager installed via gnome shell extensions. KDE just feels like it hasn’t substantially changed in ~15 years and just feels dated and like a halfway attempt at recreating Aero. I’ve moved over to Cosmic and I yearn for my gnome days but it’s getting better with each release.

I feel like raspberry pis have completely lost the plot. Now they’re just expensive mini PCs rather than low powered devices for hobby projects. By the time you get a case, a hat for NVME, and the sensors you want, it’s be cheaper to buy an actual mini-PC with even more power.

From a hobby perspective, the ESPs are where it’s at

It also significantly speeds up the flow of traffic and eases congestion. Right on red is one of the best things the US has done in regards to easing congestion - now if only we’d invest in more public transit specifically trains/lightrail so they would be more viable. For example, I was just in Atlanta and the time difference between getting an Uber from the airport to my hotel was maybe 10 minutes. Here in Denver that difference was almost an hour which is unacceptable, I and most others can’t just absorb an extra hour or two into their commute

Also, a portable band saw would cut through like butter compared to an angle grinder plus it’s orders of magnitude quieter. I can get through 4", 3/16 drop posts in like 20 seconds with a band saw and it’s much safer

A better, free-er alternative to figma would be something like Penpot which works pretty well and is easy to self-host.
