No need, you can get special teabags for hard water

Just use one of those “baby changing” stations.

Apparently it has a Google AI watermark

I’ve run koboldcpp on a steam deck. You have to stick to small model files, of course, like maybe 4Gb, but you can get decent speed if you do.

And Edge Gallery on Android can run models locally on a phone.

I use Obsidian as a OneNote replacement because it’s built around markdown, which is just a a text file that includes structure and formatting.

I don’t use their subscription syncing service, just sync files to my own phone and server. Obsidian is great for organizing, but I can still read all the files as text.

I found that the resilio mobile app would use up a lot of battery at night (sometimes about 10% an hour).

Syncthing was better for that, but would sometimes just stop updating on a phone. I would check and it would have not been syncing for weeks and be signed out of the web UI.

If you were a roofer and you built a roof and it was two feet off, you’d still be in prison

Unless it was the prison roof that you built.

I just thought that as the ultimate authority on memes, he might take more of an interest.

I’m beginning to think that Richard Dawkins doesn’t even bother moderating this community…

My first thought was that it was a Westworld reference.

One of the terrible things is that they will bill you much more if you don’t have insurance, or if you have insurance but they are not in your insurance “network” (which is basically your insurer acting like a union to negotiate prices down for it’s members).

Except for the Doofenshmirtz “2 nickels” one, I see that everywhere.

A private key would be built in to the camera. It would be stored in a way that’s hard to get at, physically or in software (like the secure enclaves in phones).

The pics or videos are signed using the private key (again, this process needs to happen in a secure way without revealing the secret key).

The camera manufacturer publishes the matching public key. Anyone can use it to verify that the file matches the signature. But no one can sign a fake image unless they can get at the private key.

This would work even if the camera manufacturer no longer existed. The camera does need to ever be online.

The public/private key pairs are also part of what makes blockchains work, but for this process blockchains would add nothing.

Seriously. It’s something about shampoo, hair conditioner, laundry detergent and laundry conditioner especially. The product type is printed as small as the dosage on med bottles.

I have seen a gas pump have a “press cancel to skip PIN entry” message…

Usually they ask for the zip code of the billing address, and if you found a card, there’s a good chance you’d be in that zip code.
