“Quantum emulation” all the hype, 1/1000th the efficiency, 1000X the excuses to sell hardware

“Describing rapid-response networks [and] moms as professional agitators shows just how out of touch these agents are, and how incredible their views are,” Ellis said.

Shoutout for the proper use of the word incredible.

Honest question, what are y’all doing on YouTube most days?

I go on about once or twice a month when I need to repair a thing and I can’t find a good written description of how to repair it.

Also I visited the other day to make sure my bluetooth headphones were connected before a call (I watched a video of goats doing goat things for 4s).

I’m curious what content is drawing in folks on Lemmy who probably skew towards my demographic.

Getting the chunks off saves you from having to clean the filter as often (I recognize that’s probably different from “scrubbing”)

My dishes are by no stretch of the imagination clean when they go into the dishwasher, but they also look nothing like what’s in a Cascade™ commercial.

Bought a tire attachment for my air compressor the other day. You’d think I must live in a house with millions of tires to fill based on my product suggestions.

“Like, you really fucking love tires right? Have you heard of these 6 other tire-filling compressor attachments??”

Evidence? From the “most transparent administration”? You must be new here…

There’s no scenario where I would bring this to a manager. If you aren’t capable of (politely!) setting your own boundaries with your coworkers, you’re going to struggle no matter what team you land on.

I suspect, given this is a medical setting, the hiring manager has more important things to worry about than “are people talking near the new person again?”

If you came to me with that demand before hiring I would thank you for your time and wish you luck finding a position that meets your needs. I have my own shit to deal with, training new team members is already an additional load to take on, and having to manage personalities full-time is not in my bandwidth

Once a company has already trained one of these monster-models, using it to respond to a content-free work email, cheat on homework, lookup a recipe, or help you write a silly html web page is usually freshwater savings…

If these tasks are so resource light, then what are all these new data centers being built for?

We were gonna terrorize some immigrants but our team wanted to hold a costume contest in a field instead.

Oddly enough everyone decided to dress up as a ghost this year. They burned a large t to symbolize the defeat of terrorism.

It’s a lemmy.world problem, otherwise each instance has to block the user.

Fun fact, you can use most of teams through teams.microsoft.com

Do yourself and your coworkers a favor and minimize how often Teams is running. If anyone asks just say the desktop version was buggy - no one who has used teams will deny it.

Hmm weird, must just be you. Page loads fine on FF Android with uBlock Origin.

This is fantastic news for vegans! I’m sure all of the “US beef doesn’t directly contribute to deforestation - you’re overreacting” folks will now see the direct connection and stop eating beef…

They weren’t arguing in bad faith right?.. Right?

No issue with embossed logos. Stainless steel is not guaranteed to work though - plain stainless steel is not magnetic (thus doesn’t work), but most manufacturers sandwich other metals between layers of stainless to make them induction compatible

Carbon steel and cast iron are absolutely perfect though

Would be happy to chat if you’re still on the fence but quite frankly induction is better in every way - less energy, faster heatup, more even heating and control, cooler kitchen… the only slight downside is there’s a small subset of pans that dont work

My range hood is magnetic and has about 4 of these stuck on the side

They’re not perfect, because I do sometimes space out through their beeping, but they help keep me on task when I remember to set them

Additionally, as someone else mentioned, my induction stove will shut off if it gets too hot.

If you still struggle, maybe an air fryer is right for you, they typically have timed modes.

Someone else mentioned the dorm room system you have to keep pressing a button to trigger - you could pretty easily recreate this with a countertop induction cooktop, pressure cooker, or air fryer. Just plug into a smart switch, and use Home Assistant + a button, and have it auto shutoff after X time since last button press.

And they didn’t even try to solar power their ISP?!? The nerve of some people.

Lemmy also does code markup with `text`
