This is the problem with "in-band signaling". Not just with LLM's, but Linux TTY suffers from this as well, among others. Anything that doesn't separate control data from the actual data. See https://en.wikipe

My* experience: Motivation doesn't come. Waiting for motivation is allowing yourself to be controller by your feelings. At one point you just decide to do it. Ignore the feeling that you lack motivation. Grind through even one laughabl

Another trick is to put lots of dry rice grains into a sock, tie the sock and warm it up in a microwave. Just be careful, as the rice heats up Really fast in the microwave.

So, to DIY it: Disassemble an existing monitor, take out the polarizer, and replace it with a mirror sheet? Referencing this explanation of LCD polarizers: https://focuslcds.com/journals/lcd-polarizer-differences-ref...

Props to this. I have developed a habit of skipping to the end of the whole page, and reading towards the beginning, paragraph-by-paragraph. Works..sometimes :D

Seconded. Cannot speak of other static site generators, as Hugo is the only I know, but it IS a pain to make anything that deviates from the golden path that's shown in the documentation.

I experience somewhat frequent GPU crashes when playing Diablo3 under Wine with the integrated i3-4150 GPU, but the graphics stack recovers by itself in about a minute. I can then continue from where I left off, sans the application that cr

It's available from the normal Chrome print menu, so you can test it yourself easily. But to answer: I haven't used it extensively, but CSS and Javascript tend to make it a bit tricky. When you are viewing a webpage in the browser

It uses Chrome's built-in print-to-PDF functionality via Chrome Debug/DevTools Protocol. In other words it creates PDF files with real vector graphics and text, not just images embedded in PDF. Page.printToPDF: https://

It would be useful to be able to browse the sourcecode online, without actually cloning it. It seems somewhat weird to use the VCS itself for the VCS being developed. Well, maybe that's just me. Until you offer the ability to browse so

My apologies. My reply was an attempt at political humor. No connection to the LibreOffice software.

I think anything is a great alternative to the Office at this point. In hindsight, LibreOffice's name must've been chosen by a fortune-teller..or a <strike>pessimist</strike> realist ;)

Ahh, my mistake. WP != PROT. Utilizing the PROT-pin appears to force memory chip's internal read&write protection flags active, causing read and write operations to fail (unless I understood incorrectly). This kind of information c

You said it's because of a mix-up when reading documentation, but you said nothing about /why/ changing the write-protect pin's state should work - or why tying clock and data pins together should not.

[continued..] You can't generalize, but you can assume. Quite likely many Thinkpads use the same piece of code to handle firmware password-checking. Once the code is changed, it'll likely propagate (slowly) inside the company to a

Ugh, this kind of thing gets my blood boiling. It was clearly said that _a security researcher_ disallowed Mozilla from reporting the vulnerability forward. It's the individual to blame, not Mozilla. In any case Personally I wouldn&#x2
