animals enjoy my company, and I'm never without wheat. here, take some. *I hand you a scoop of grain from my apron pocket* there you are—but remember, nothing in life is free. you owe me something in return. I would like a binary-compatible drop-in replacement for libncurses written in rust. no worries, I can wait. you can write it through the winter, subsisting on the debt I have just loaned you. they call this leverage, in the finance world. I have many friends in that industry—bulls and bears, mostly.
Everything is isomorphic if you squint hard enough
I don't think the hype around "state of the art" small models like lfm2.5-thinking is warranted. Even if there's a bunch of "benchmarks" that they score higher on compared to other models of their "class", they're still to weak to perform tasks. Like all tiny models they're prone to babbling and getting confused.

TIL there's a way to declaratively show/hide `<dialog>` elements in #html using the `commandFor` attribute on `<button>` elements.

Managed to remove about 5-6 gigs of RAM usage and 15% CPU usage by disabling the AI stuff, One Drive, and random Dell/Adobe crapware.

Too many smart home devices insist on having lit displays when some kind of reflective LCD or e-ink display would almost always provide a better experience at a lower power consumption.
Maybe I'm just very particular about home lighting but if I do want to see values on the sensor hardware itself, I probably do not want it to light up in the dark and I also probably want to be able to read it from a slight distance without having to get up and push a button.
New Blog post: I go over decentralized social media protocols like #nostr #ATProtocol and #ActivityPub and compare the tradeoffs between them.
Apparently minecraft isn't great for making use of multi threading. IMO there's an algo somewhere in there to find gaps between players and to run their simulations separately from each other and merge zones onto single threads as needed (Say within 5 chunks of each others simulation distance)

You are regularly being scanned like this without knowing it.
"This photo was taken with a camera modified with a filter to capture the infrared light emitted by a face recognition camera. I had to shoot the subject in total darkness in order to cut out visible light and allow the camera to pick up on the infrared beams of a face recognition camera."
Gonna try this to de-crap my friend's laptop.
Anyone got an updated guide on removing all the AI crapware from default Windows?
I need the new steam controller and vr headset to come out already 😭

Sometimes in order to set up a computer you need a second computer that has working wifi already
Had a really great day off. Managed to be productive by some metrics but also relaxed a lot.
