Lol their papaya salad is the same, just a mountain of peppers mixed in with raw papaya. Tasted awesome haha.

I remember feeling extra powerful when Moonshell for the DS shipped with UTF-8 and UTF-16 support because the developer was japenese and wanted to make sure any language would work.

It was high for the era, not anymore compared to current meme breeds though lol. Relatively though it still is quite strong. I’d probably say it’s the 2nd or 3rd hottest pepper used fresh and not dried for powder.

tbf Thais like to use bucketfulls of it which adds up compared to their western neighbors who use the slightly less potent early harvested green and in lower quantitities.

Also for some reason, a lot of sources erroneously put it super under Habenro peppers which I can tell you first hand is not true. They can easily hit 400k on the scoville scale, but there’s too many similar varieties which are much less potent but still get labelled as Thai chillies because of the shape.

The funny thing about South Asia is that they had like 200 unique spices already but they didn’t get capsaicin spices (peppers) until the portuguese brought it from the Americas via trade, and then South Asians immediately slurped it up and bred a ton of varieties as if the 200 wasn’t enough.

And they went max power too which is how we got Thai bird eye chillis lol.

In a way it has actually.

Deepseek was big because not only did they publish the full model for everyone to use, but the MoE structure significantly brought down the hardware requirements in terms of processing power. As long as you have enough VRAM, you can run it on older hardware with no need for the latest Nvidia stuff.

Now they got v4 which many have found to be within a 10% margin of Claude and ChatGPT.

On top of that, China has cheapo VRAM GPUs available or soon to be released, like the MTT S80. Yeah it sucks as a Graphics card because the chip is behind, but you get 16Gb of GDDR6 for much cheaper than anything else.

But its not a conspiracy to fight China. The infinite scaling was just Nvidia solidifying themselves as the monopoly because they want all AI infrastructure to be dependent on them, which is why they still illegally export to China, despite an export ban attempting to reduce their potential competition.

Moore Threads (MTT) already has their own CUDA like system called MUSA, and I’m sure they’ll be happy to put in proper hardware support for new stuff like Bf16 and FP8/4. It’ll take a few years, but eventually China will catch up to the point where Nvidia gets shanked by cheaper hardware.

Lol please. America already gutted its entire industrial base to the point where there’s a permanent shortage of blue collar jobs, and most people are working crappy wages in a service role for whichever megacorp owns the entire market.

AI could take over tomorrow and there wouldn’t be enough people to care, despite getting utterly screwed over.

It might only get ugly if purchasing power collapses and causes solvency. Otherwise it’ll just continue to degrade into an infinite debt economy which is basically just generational slavery like a significant portion of exploited labor and human trafficking already is.

Don’t worry though, there’s a million other problems that’ll probably pop the bubble first anyway lol.

The scale is backwards lol.

I’m at the point where I’m considering moving to vim because I’m sick of the lack of good defaults on Nano and Micro for quick edits, and I’m also tired of IDEs breaking my flow with poor defaults that pop open UI components which must be navigated differently depending on what it is, or just switching back to the mouse every couple seconds.

Just haven’t made the jump yet because I want to sit down and go through all the hot keys in one go, including for global stuff like tmux, the DE, etc.

Chinese RAM has CCP spyware, we’re only allowed to buy pure American RAM made in, uh, Taiwan lol

Man past me should have done a better job

//Crappy hack to make this work immediately so management will stop breathing down my neck

Oh wait nevermind lol

Also Proton: “metadata logging does not count as logging, and handing our logs, I mean non existent logs that only contains totally useless metadata, over to the Swiss government is fine because its the Swiss law”

Detailed CGI in sci fi that’s been lense or motioned blurred into oblivion.

Doesn’t even matter if the CGI was subpar because now the whole thing looks like RGB vommit.

It’s especially painful coming from gaming where you get to see crisp visual quality at every angle even on games as old as Halo CE.

Compare this to the bank robbery opening in Dark Knight haha.

I’ve never seen Heat, but I’ve also never seen any newer movies top that scene since.

I thought they were making complete bank by getting rid of their exclusives and going the open platform route (which everyone complained about)?

They did so well that Xbox became an irrelevant choice between PC and Playstation.

Plus they were doing delayed PC releases, so I don’t really see how that would affect PS sales since the port would come out much later.

GitHub gets autoscanned by thousands of malicious actors for keys and credentials on every commit, including the comments lol.

The fact that CISA themselves never saw an automated breach attempt only minutes after pushing to github is the more interesting story here.

Either the contractor is so incompetent that they didn’t have any logging set up and the breach went completely unnoticed for 6 months.

Or this really is some fat honeypot that they won’t admit is a honeypot because they’ve been using it to watch or bait APTs.

Currently, there is no indication that any sensitive data was compromised as a result of this incident

This is literally impossible unless it really was a honeypot. You can demo this yourself in real time. Make a throwaway cloud account on your favorite provider, commit the cloud auth token into a repo, and you will see an automated bot login within minutes.

Commiting any secrets to a public repo should just be considered auto compromised because of how potent it is.

That stuff ususlly gets exposed via poor CI/CD permissions where credentials are required, but straight up file commit is like publicly announcing exactly where you left your house keys lol.

Train it exclusively on Linus’s entire mailing list history so that it actively insults poor merge requests and code lol.

Another day of vaguely pointing at Javascript when asked where the circus is.

I’m just excited for Lepton which will hopefully demonstrate the stupidity of kernel level anticheat when it will allow Linux users to play Fortnite for a couple of hours before Epic inevitably starts monkeypatching their android port lol.

Defraggler my beloved.

Then I discovered ext4 and realized NTFS was just just shit lol

• Anything that you can shove hardware into (CPU, RAM, HDDs, maybe a PCI slot), so any used workstation is a great start, and don’t bother splurging initially, just follow the quality tool rule and only buy when something becomes inadequate. If you want to jump straight into loud and noisy severs, you can pick up used servers for cheap like R730s which there’s a ton of out there. Just avoid 2.5" drive bays because 3.5" HDDS are way cheaper per Gb.

• Would recommend podman over docker as its matured to the point where it has a lot of better features like rootless, quadlets, etc that you might want to take advantage of in the future. OS is whatever linux you prefer, but I recommend you stay away from Ubuntu. If you want something RedHat but not as cutting edge as Fedora, I’ve heard OpenSUSE is pretty nice.

For apps, If you want to do HTTPS via GUI then npmplus is nice option, Otherwise caddy can do the same with text config. Rest is whatever you want to try out :)

EDIT: If you start making an *arr stack, I would recommend recyclarr to handle the quite expansive content filter settings for sonarr and radarr.
