If you want the loyal fans to watch it, stop fucking it up! Keep the source material, and let your cooky ass writers write their own shit.

Perrin having and killing his wife?

A total cut of Gaul?

Aviendha and Elayne for... some reason?

Perrin straight up actually killing geofram bornehald? Which is a WHOLE plot point by the way.

Moraine killing the shit out of seanchan at falme definitely breaking the 3 oaths?

It goes on and on. So much questionable decision making.

I'd add a better protein source than just cheese too if it were me. Otherwise yeah.

Baby carrots would be a nice touch for vegetables here.

The only protein source here is the cheese stick and the rest is all just carbs on carbs with a little smattering of fat. Basically no fiber besodes the pickle and the apple sauce pouch which barely counts.

This is fine every now and again, but yeesh.

Worst breakfast skillet ever.

Cuz her friends dont cum and if they don't cum that's their choice and I don't mind.

I also choose some other guy's fingers.

I wrote a little bit of code to tell me if or when my electricity would be cheaper if I used on demand pricing instead of flat rate. Basically anything you might use excel for could be a programming problem.

For other hobby projects and "why Linux" it's easier to sew things together than windows, generally speaking.

Example:

Every time I sit down at my PC the first thing I usually do is open a terminal: it is both my launcher and my file manager. I have several programs with TUI (terminal user interface) or text based API (which is an applied programming interface) and I keep my notes in plain text. One type of note I keep is an "atomic" note inside my zettelkasten (this is a fancy way of keeping track of ideas and the way they connect together, but you need to revisit them for it to be useful. Kinda like anki / spaced reputation I guess).

So enough background, here's the idea and the programming:

  • If I always open a terminal, it's a good place to put stuff I want to see.

  • There are two things I want to see: twice a day I want to see a note, the rest of the time I want to see the 3 or 4 most important tasks on my todo list

  • I want randomized notes and I want it to be automatic.

One of the easiest things you can do in a terminal is "echo" text. So I started by, in my terminal "rc" file (the configuration file that tells the terminal what to do when you start it) echoing my todo list as the very last step in the start process. Then it's refinement. First don't give me the whole list, use shell tools to show the head of the list. Now make a conditional statement that says "if there's a file called "temp" in some folder give me the Todo list, otherwise do nothing". Basically we follow the incremental logic train until you get the final product:

  • If no file exists, print a note (at random) and then make the file
  • If the file exists write part of the todo list
  • Every 6 hours, delete the file automatically with cron

Neat you just programmed a lame, but useful tool.

Time to change to rebase only workflow. Easy reverts.

 

Lamb sous vide 4h @ 132F seared over natural lump charcoal in the bottom of a chimney starter. (Start a small chimney of charcoal and put it in the base of big chimney, seared on a cooling rack 1 min 20 sec each side). Served against a mixed green salad with some cherry tomatoes.

A great turnout, except for the part where I stepped on a loose piece of charcoal and melted my sock to my foot... Learned a lesson and said some bad words.

 

Wife gets this Easter leftover, and I'll have meatloaf XD

 

Today my PC finally ate it. No POST, no disk activity, so I'm pretty sure the mobo has failed. I built this PC 8 or 10 years ago, and I'm honestly too old and out of touch to know where to start on a rebuild lol.

I'm an arch Linux user, my job is in machine learning, and I'm looking at a soup to nuts style rebuild but I don't know where to start. I want as much future proofing as I can get and I'm happy with a budget anywhere from $2k to $8k. I don't game now, but I might want to in the future.

So it seems like to leverage good ML tools I'm locked to cuda, so probably Nvidia GPU. Does that mean 4070 Ti is the knee in the curve? CPU I came from AMD but I have no idea. RAM speed is something I have never ever considered. And mobo wise, I have a couple of M.2 drives now, but I'm not sure what else should drive decisions? 1 monitor currently that I intend to replace, so I'm not sure why I would need multiple GPUs or something that necessitates a lot of PCIe connections.

I want a plain old closed black case, no color changing gamer shit, and about as much computing power as I can get. Pcpartpicker came up a little short, how do I start?

I've got maybe a week of lead time, then I would like to pull the trigger. This whole build process was a lot easier circa 2003!

 

I have been using the Kasa (TP-Link) branded smart switches around my house, but now that I have a few third reality zigbee sensors for my doors and so on, I am seeing the value of using more outlets/switches that act as zigbee repeaters. Do any of you have pretty reasonable (and cheapish) smart light switches or outlets I can invest in? The Amazon offerings are in the $50 each one which is pretty steep, though I guess I could just do one each room and do the rest with Kasa stuff.

I would like to expand the zigbee mesh network so I can use the devices where I actually want them without using smart outlet devices plugged into real outlets all over the place. If there was something that was $20 or less each item that would be super excellent. The wife and I plan to move in the not too distant future and I'd like to replace the "in the wall" stuff so that HA works throughout the house and I don't have plugs / dongles / wall warts all over the place.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

 

Really enjoying nvim-dap-ui lately, but I always have to adjust the sizes of the windows. The docs have left me high and dry so far, but maybe one of you have a good solution for a consistent layout when you first attach to a file?

 

Or are you open to hearing all kinds of opinions?
