I bought my X4 from Ali and usb flashing is disabled so I flashed crosspoint using the SD card method which wasn't difficult. It's not like I'm going to patch it often, it's just mildly less convenient when I do.

I rebuilt my PII system last year and really wanted to run SAH on it for old time's sake but sadly that hasn't been possible for a long time. I miss watching that old screensaver and optimising the system performance so I could ge

I recently picked up a Threadripper 3960x, 256GB DDR4 and RTX2080ti 11GB running Debian 13 and open web-ui w/ ollama. It runs well, not much difference to Claude etc but still learning the ropes and how to get the best out of it and lo

if the UK had a written constitution, the right to drink tea would be damn near the top of it.

As a neurodiverse British person I tend to communicate more directly than the average English speaker and I find LLM's manner of speech very off-putting and insincere, which in some cases it literally is. I'd be glad to find a swi

welcome to the 4 digit club! I'm on day 1,360 and still today gaining new insights into my drinking habits and learning more about myself without it.

I had a dog, then kids and now just got a puppy and I think there is perhaps some truth to it, dogs are certainly much much lower effort/stress/cost but provide a good amount of companionship. It wasn't enough for us, obvious

I used Tiddlywiki for years, never stopped liking it but eventually migrated to LogSeq which fit my note-taking style better. Looks like things have moved on since then though so I'll have to catch up on what's happening with it!

Games that start with the Bongcloud attack are fun to watch if only for the facial expressions that follow.

I've only seen this happen when the plug was fitted badly (pinched or damaged wires inside the plug) or someone use a nail in place of the fuse. People do stupid things like that all the time but it's not the fault of the standard

My wife is a huge Disney fan and I accepted my fate years ago that eventually we will take our kids to Disney world when they are the optimal ages to get the most out of it. That time comes next year and we had already pencilled our visit f

I met my wife at 21, married at 32, I was a hard sceptic about marriage in my 20's after seeing my parents divorce in my late teens, they married too early and I didn't want to make that mistake. As it was, our pre-marriage relati

I wonder if anyone has tried feeding a skyscraper's lighting rod into a sand battery and let it charge up from lightning alone, so much potential for free energy there.

I could really get into a UK version of this. As it is I'm at a handicap with most of these clues. Great puzzle though!

Good, but I'm now deep into logseq for work use and switching now is unlikely. Their previous terms were a barrier, it created a chicken and egg problem that meant I never got onboard enough to consider paying for a license. Most peopl

it almost sounds robotic, if I didn't expect that even AI would prefer generally accepted terms even just to try sound more authentic.

I'm sure there is a historical reason we have "half" and "quarter" and no others but it's not my area of expertise but still, not using them when they're appropriate just seems...odd.

"one-fourth of all women" is this a Americanese thing? It reads like a gross simplification of just saying "a quarter" which is quite jarring coming from a prestigious university.

That may be true if you routinely use a text mode web browser and get all your content from RSS feeds, I've certainly moved more in that direction to avoid the sensory overload of the modern web. I still find Gemini great for reading l

Converting between pta formats is easy but between pta and database formats will always be difficult.

Seems like a missed trick, I'm not going to change my accounting system for one app but if it was in the pta ecosystem I could easily see myself using it as a nice front end for my existing data files.
