Much cleaner and more attractive and cohesive than recent BMW and Mercedes designs, in my opinion.

Whompy wheels!

I like this idea, but I love my headband night light. In the winter it is almost always dark when I’m not at work, and I use it over a warm hat for most things I need done outside.

Fresh home made bread is so delicious. Even with just butter its irresistible to me.

I wish I had time to bake lately.

96 issues in the last 90 days.

There’s two nines right there! Just not the ones you need.

Yes, I self host the English Wikipedia dump, as well as a few cooking sites and topic specific stack exchange dumps available in zim format.

My goal is:

• reduce dependence on public internet. In the event of an outage or restriction I’d like some books and other content I can use to entertain myself
• locally preserve a snapshot of information before it is possibly diluted by LLM edits

I like a black beans and garbanzo beans. Black beans in a salad and garbanzos in curry, hummus, or falafel.

I enjoy black eyed peas cooked with a ham hock, but that’s not for everyone. I like them extra mushy, with hot sauce and spinach added right at the end :)

I also run this way. NFS4 mount for the media Dir. Cache Dir on the local SSD. No problems streaming 2-3 devices. NAS is happy to serve other files at the same time.

Docker host is nothing special, old Mac mini running Ubuntu.

Oh boy…I also have a perfectly working bathroom fan motor. In storage for around 15 years now, and rescued from my parent’s renovation. Good to know it may indeed be useful :)

I had a flame sensor go out last year. The tech could get it going by just cleaning the sensor, but did come back and replace it when the part came in.

Sadly, I gave up my own troubleshooting when I saw the computer control was flashing an error. Would have saved me a couple hundred bucks.

I have consistently been trying to use AI for the actual tasks I need to complete for work over the last year or so (we are gently encouraged to try it, but thankfully not forced). I have found it to be “successful” at maybe 1 in 10 tasks I give it. Even when successful, the code quality is so low I edit heavily before it’s pushed and attributed to me.

I think the problem I have is I rarely work on boilerplate stuff.

Sad as that is, I think you’re correct
