Why did you post a region-specific advertisement to world news?

A toilet. Can’t you tell?

You don’t use local LLMs the whole time your computer is on. Still, there is no such thing as “wasted RAM”. The RAM programs aren’t “using” is used by the OS as cache.

It is also possible to use VRAM as system RAM

I haven’t read the whole article yet, but it bothers me how athe author mistakenly calls the init (with the process id 1) pid 0, which is special and belongs to a part of the kernel.

Were you killed by the bed or the monster beneath it?

If you’re serious, it could be a good idea to state which country/part of the world you’re in.

I would recommend that you set your agent to filter out posts you don’t want

Just to be clear, do you mean that the user’s user agent (lemmy client) should be capable of filtering out posts about vibecoded slop, perhaps by having lemmy communities require such posts to be tagged? Or do you mean that a LLM should curate what users see here?

Yes, the wand can cast “on touch” spells, but “on self” spells are somewhat more common with that model.

Edit: In an emergency, the wand can also be cast on a target, assuming the mage has enough arm strength.

A universal paperclip.

Which part was that? If you’re talking about the hallway in Sands of Karak, I’m pretty sure that it’s not required for progression.

It’s by no means new, but I’ve found OCR to be useful.

Where is this from? What was originally written on the sign?

major upgrade like from kernel 6 to 7

What do you mean? The Linux kernel doesn’t follow SemVer.

The 6.19 -> 7.0 version bump didn’t have any more inherent meaning than 7.0 -> 7.1 or 7.1 -> 7.2.

The picture is incorrect. Please swap the captions.

Favouritism, of course.

No, and that’s not what the question is about. Let me rephrase the question for clarity:

Reddit just started requiring logins to use old.reddit, the first step in it’s eventual shutdown. Is lemmy ready for new users the inevitable swarms of locusts? Can we prevail when the calamities foretold fall upon us, when our rivers turn to blood and the skies open up to drench our lands in acid? Or shall we perish? Drown under the great flood of liberal talking points that will wash over our lands?

Why do you think that it doesn’t use AI? It uses Wndows’ own OCR APIs, requiring Windows language packs for support for different scripts & languages. OCR has used AI for a long time now.

kAppIcon is a small icon manager for KDE Plasma and other freedesktop desktops.

According to the Readme, yes.

I didn’t look too deeply, but I assume it modifies .desktop files stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/ and/or copies system.desktop files there to override them with modified versions.

If it works like I assume, it should work with anything that reads .desktop files from the standard locations.

How else do you clean your sharks? I mean, while you could use a feather duster, they don’t react well to them, so I wouldn’t recommend it.

Try something flashy. It’ll look good.on your crime CV—colloquially called “the record”. Your first thought might be a bank robbery, but that’s no longer in style—making you look old-fashioned.

I would recommend committing digital crimes. They’re hip & show that you follow the times.

If your computer skills aren’t up to par, or your moral compass is leading you astray, you could perform a vi timless crime. If you don’t leave anyone alive, there isn’t anyone left to prosecute you. (If it wasn’t apparent, the name comes from erasing all possible “victims”.)

Don’t forget to leave some kind of mark-of-trade at the scene of the crime to claim the glory. For example, you could leave a fresh parsnip. It’s very important that you have a reasonable explanation that links you to the mark, otherwise you could become a target for identity theft. Unless you can think of a very unique mark, I would suggest leaving your name & address.
