I tried out ollama. It was trivially easy to set up.

Stable diffusion is a bit more work, but any power user should be able to figure it out.

Cost to run the company? They will proudly milk as much money as they can to maximize profits. Having a bigger margin is a point of pride for them. Watch any shareholder meeting. They will publicly brag about it.

I think Lemny needs to be pitched to more independent communities as a way to provide a forum to their members while being connected to the rest of the Internet. For example, game developers should make lemmy instances for their game communities so they can host a forum and not be subjected to the whims of Reddit. Non profits and guilds as well.

Old electronics sounds great

Ubuntu really was a big step forward for ease of setup back when it first came out, but other distros have since caught up. I think the ultimate success of an open source project is when they make themselves obsolete because they had such a big impact on the eco system at large. I think Ubuntu achieved their main goal, but once they did that they ended up adding a bunch of bloat to distinguish themselves as the intro user option.

I went from Ubuntu to Xubuntu one Ubuntu started adding all their bloaty window UI. I stuck with it for a long time but recently it started acting up on me so I switched to Linux mint xfce since it’s the closest experience and feels a bit more stable. I figure if it ain’t broke…

Why isn’t the company paying for it? Anyways, you could just export it to a different format and then back to Excel depending on which features you’re using. But also, I think this is being paranoid. Microsoft isn’t the NSA

Then show us your anime titty pics!

I don’t think any of those tests ever claimed to be a general intelligence test, they’re specific knowledge tests. Books also contain a ton of specific knowledge but books are not intelligent.

I’m happier to live in an age of micro plastics than lead and asbestos and extreme smog.

Giving him a contact is not impolite, it’s just how business is done, and it doesn’t just protect you, it protects him too so the terms are agreed on in advance.

If the owners were your friends they would have recognized how pivotal you were and given you significant equity. I’m sure you already know, but it is possible to be friends with the owners of the company you work for, but friends value each other and wouldn’t let their friends work that hard without making sure they’re properly compensated with stock, so proper reward and friendship go hand in hand, and friendship is not a replacement for compensation no matter how good of friends you are.

How long does the battery last? I think a week minimum and preferably a month it’s what would be needed to make it worth it.

Some of you are taking this a bit too seriously. I’m a Linux user and thought it was funny.

It’s the best part of the joke!

So far my favorite is “Rise up”.

Tacos! Quick to throw something together from scratch and easy to make ingredients ahead.

I can at least assure you that as a developer, docker is annoying to set up and their documentation is confusing.

Most things in Linux are easier to set up but sometimes installing things happens to be harder than it should be and docker is one of them.

You should keep in mind that compared to other OSs, a lot of Linux software is CLI only, so they won’t always show up in the applications list and you’ll need to check if you have it in a terminal.

Unfortunately I don’t have a better idea

Localized heating is way more efficient than whole house heating. If having localized heaters help you keep the rest of your home cooler it’s much better for the environment.
