Gotta wonder if that would work. My impression is that they are kind of looping inside the model to improve quality but that the looping is internal to the model. Can’t wait for someone to make something similar for Ollama.

What do you think would happen if the best NBA team played the best WNBA team? I think the men would win.

What do you think would happen if professional basketball was mixed? I’d imagine the teams would be 90% men.

Also, if track and field records are any indication, men are strong and faster. Separate divisions are more fair.

No, men and women are not physically equal.

I don’t really mind the idea of Republicans. Their execution is the problem. If they really were focused on small government, national defense, low taxes, the second amendment and pro-life, I could understand it (though I am decidedly pro-choice). It’s the disingenuous nature of it all that gets me.

I also don’t really like the Democratic party. They tend to make big promises that never fully materialize.

I’d prefer they talk about problems, not the entire voting population. I’m even open to “the Democrats need to nominate a better candidate” or “MAGA is garbage” but not “Americans are X”.

I would never criticize the entire voting population or say something like “I don’t know why Americans allow X to happen”. My criticisms are specific and targeted towards certain groups of people who are working against our interests.

I don’t mind it but I draw a line at criticism of the entire electorate. Many of us know that things are broken and we’d fix it if we could.

Edit: clarity. The entire electorate

I find there to be a more honest discussion here. Also, I really like that it’s not run by some giant VC fueled company that is driven to make as much money as possible. It’s more like a public utility where the cost is distributed among multiple instance owners. However, I am concerned about their rise in costs over time and I hope there is a plan for revenue. I’d be willing to pay.

While I’m here, I hope you all still use reddit a bit and mention Lemmy on there occasionally. I think the community can still grow.

What did you do?

Maybe it’s supposed to be mildly infuriating for us?

I had an Amazfit BIP for a while that had a color e-paper display with a battery that lasted over 30 days. I think they have since gone OLED but one cool thing about it was, while they had their own app with a login, I could alternatively sync it directly with a third party app on Android that was called “Notify And Fitness”. I only mention it because within this particular app the info never left the device. Perhaps there is something similar today, but I have since just given in and gone Garmin.

Taking a probiotic supplement that has a lot of different types of bacteria can help some people.

I wish they made more e-ink watches

I feel this. So many projects I have built for companies, to their specs, that they considered a success, only to have them simply be thrown away years later rather than improved. So many projects I have built for myself only to have them eclipsed by VC driven companies with larger feature sets and deeper pockets. Unfortunately I have yet to reach your level of zen.

So much freedom that it hurts.

I only recently learned of GrapheneOS and I’ve been tempted to install it on my 8 Pro, I may soon give it a shot. Do you find anything to be missing in terms of feature availability or in the Google play sandbox? There are a few games I don’t want to do without.

They sold me a device and want me to buy another.

It should be code name “Bug Eyes”, in a nod to Zuck.

Seems like a cool idea but, so far with Gemini on my Pixel, I hate that I can’t tell what’s on device and what’s in the cloud and I ended up uninstalling it. I’m not sure Google needs to know more about me than they already do.

Supposedly the phone can run local models but I’ve only seen it in the recorder app, which isn’t really that useful, especially after all of the hype around Tensor, AICore and Gemini Nano.

I’m considering buying one but lately I’ve been thinking about maybe getting a Mustang because the BlueCruise seems more honest. However, Ford doesn’t seem super committed to electric and it’s all hard to justify when my Honda just won’t die.
