  • That's awesome! Solar power has been a real game changer.

  • Sounds like the answer is to spread the wealth, not to become unreliable.

  • The shared repo doesn't look like fine tuning. It just looks like prompts.

  • Seems like you'd be interested in https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/about/

    I hope you find a way to share your works.

  • Thanks for explaining further. This is not something I've ever thought about so I'm going to take time to process it.

  • Think of AAE as a closed practice. You can learn about, you can view it from the outside, but it is not yours to use as you please.

    Help me understand this. It makes no sense to me. I don't even know where to begin thinking about it in terms that I can understand.

  • I will commit to sharing with others what’s helping me.

    Coincidentally, I have started doing this and have seen almost immediate benefits.

    Thanks for sharing

  • What sort of things might you put on your site?

  • I'm a fan of Podverse. It has a few limitations that annoy me a bit, but I still pay $18 annually for the Premium features.

  • I used to interact with Facebook via email. That didn't last. But neither did my use of Facebook.

  • This is a good reminder. Thanks.

  • The problem with those call centers isn't competency but authority and incentive to act autonomously to solve problems. Which is ironic because it looks like Microsoft is ready to sell ai with the authority to act autonomously.

  • I'd say it was 2000 when Gore's election win was stolen from him.

  • I don't feel like I have a good sense of how valid the objections are.

    Can China Avoid a Liquidity-Trap Recession? Some Unintended Consequences of Macroprudential Policies | Russell Wong | Economic Brief April 2024, No. 24-12

    U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, released text of the Senate’s bipartisan national security supplemental package and issued the following statement:

    “As Ukraine runs low on ammunition to fend off Putin’s brutal invasion, it is imperative we finally extend our support. We must also live up to our commitments to our allies around the globe and quickly get more aid to innocent civilians caught in conflict, including in Gaza, where the humanitarian crisis is especially dire. I never believed we should link policy demands to emergency aid for our allies, but Republicans insisted—so Democrats negotiated in good faith over many weeks and now there is a bipartisan deal on border policy legislation. Ukraine’s fate and so much more hangs in the balance—it’s time for Congress to act.”

    This looks like a great starting point for people with little to no experience with programming to learn to program using Python.

    Everything taught by futurecoder.io can be used locally on your own computer. But futurecoder.io doesn't show you how to install Python on your machine but you can fill in that gap with the information provided @ https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Download

    Other resources are provided on the python.org Beginners Guide if needed.

    OpenELA - Community Repository for Enterprise Linux Sources

    OpenELA is a non-profit trade association of open source Enterprise Linux distribution developers.

    There are many Linux Distributions that are perfectly suitable for enterprise use cases and environments. For the purpose of this charter and project, OpenELA recognizes “Enterprise Linux” (EL) as 1:1 and bug-for-bug source code compatibility which today is aligned to RHEL and CentOS.

    OpenELA's mission is to provide a secure, transparent, and reliable Enterprise Linux source that is globally available to all as a buildable base.

    OpenELA is a collaboration created and upheld by CIQ, Oracle, and SUSE.

    Read the recent article on the formation of OpenELA by Richard Speed at The Register

    ParanoidFactoid may be interested in this development.
