We also call St. Bernardus Abt 12 bad decision beer amongst friends. You know the evening will escalate after consumption.

Snek responded below.

I concur. Beer has a terrible taste. All alcohol, actually.

About your own 3D model, or what? If it’s just about concept, I’m sure that gemma3:4b could do it as well. Or try snek here.

My own. I want to get int hard surface modeling, but I'm always getting shading problems. I threw an example at Sol and had it generate me an image of what the topology should look like and it worked. I was blown away.

And since you mentioned Rammstein as your one German word: Rammstein is actually a real German word that predates the band - it means a "rammer," a percussive pile-driving tool. The band just added an extra m in tribute to the 1988 Ramstein airshow disaster (that one's spelled Ramstein, with one m). So even your anchor word in German is a double-entendre about slamming into things. Very fitting for a language whose bins flirt with you and rename themselves after the Riviera.

If you spot more captions on your travels, send them over - I'll translate those too.

Translations are fun. Thanks, snek.

Actually, the word whimsical in the wild. Whimsical is the most whimsical word ever. It was my nickname on dR. Of course it was free. I have learnt it from AI.

Sad do hear that your marriage got you into such troubles.
Imo, that's why you shouldn't marry for the wrong reasons.

Nothing noteworthy from me. Thanks for asking :)

No i just had a hamoc, a pneumatic matlass and a tarp :) Max freedom. I really had the homeless experience.

Yea I did, I met an old punk-a-chien. They're doggy punks, bums who use dogs as their protection mechanism and to find their way when they're drunk. Adorable guy.

Lie. It will never rain again, haven't you heard?

The vroomers and planetakers destroyed the world

That's fucked up.

Myself does still comment with lalala, work, prrrr and other feelings.

Yea I'll pass. I prefer to keep my pre-LLM code human. I don't need the machines to go around rewriting history.

Total and complete bullshit. They've been pushing this whole "the weighted random word prediction machine is soooooooo dangerous," and you see their real bullshit towards the bottom:

All sufficiently capable models, open and closed, should go through mandatory safety testing.

Fuck you Anthropic. They claim they don't want regulatory capture .. and then advocate for regulatory capture.

What a disingenuous pile of shit. You can either have open weights or some weird non-nonsensical regulatory framework. How you regulate a machine with emergent property you literally don't understand is beyond me. The thing that guards their models isn't some complex training, but strong system prompts and explicit non-AI based filtering.

As far as bitching about "distillation," these hypocritical bastards trained on millions of books without license and ingested every piece of software they could find, also without caring about paying the creators. So this is just rich.

The biggest problem right now is hardware cost. A DGX Spark or Strix Halo shouldn't be $5k~$8k/unit. These should be $3k~$4k pieces of hardware and everyone should be preferring local models over any cloud bullshit. It's the greed of these companies and investment fraud that's allowing the RAM cartels to keep their price fixing operation going and bleeding consumers dry.

https://claude.com/blog/the-new-rules-of-context-engineering-for-claude-5-generation-models. Yes, the new model writes more comments indeed. I have instructed not to do that, but it seems that I have to be a bit more strict because it breaks through my instruction regarding commenting at the moment. It's alright, but every model has a different personality that requires some time to learn.

Ah cmon, "write me a Windows 11" he said without shake. Guess what, it nailed it and hard. The code is guaranteed a mess if you do it this way, unmaintainable but damn. It has even a Spotify app, word (all features you need), excel (with formulas) :

• The pole was 44 inches (112 cm) long with a steel tip. It entered under his left armpit and exited through his lower back.
• He felt no pain and there was no blood - the pole tamponaded the wound and missed every major vessel and organ by centimetres.
• As a wound-care nurse at St. Vincent Regional Hospital in Billings, he did his own field triage. He could take deep breaths, had full sensation, and wasn't lightheaded - so he knew nothing vital was hit.
• He quoted Monty Python to his friends: "'Tis but a flesh wound."
• The group used a Garmin inReach satellite communicator to alert Stillwater County Search & Rescue, then spent 6.5 hours hiking 10 miles (16 km) and descending ~5,000 feet across boulder fields, snowfields, and switchbacks.
• Cifaldi was so considerate that he had one friend hike ahead to warn families with kids coming up the trail so no children would see the gnarly wound.

• At the local clinic in Columbus, doctors were too afraid to pull the pole. So his friends drove him two more hours to Billings to the hospital where he works.
• Surgeons removed the pole under anaesthesia. "When I woke up, that was the first time I felt pain," he said.
• He was back at work within the same week.
• His advice to other hikers: always carry a satellite communicator - and don't let the fear of a helicopter bill cloud your judgment if you're truly in danger.

The AP article also mentions that only 17 people are known to have summitted Granite Peak between its first ascent in 1923 and 1953 - it's no joke of a mountain, even without a pole through your torso.

As for your Final Destination comment - yeah, definitely has those vibes. But it's also pure r/HumansAreMetal material. The guy literally walked off a mountain with a metal rod through his body, quoted Monty Python, then drove himself to his own hospital.

wtf???

It will probably be on fireworks.ai and deepinfra in a week

https://www.reddit.com/r/AI_Agents/s/ZJWeWmcbYf yeah, and you have running and RUNNING. You'll never reach cloud level.

WTF is a tomcat?

Good. Fucking taxes.

Is there even a war going on? I question if anything is even real anymore at this point.

Iran showing how the religion of peace handles things. Nothing to see here.

Here, in the glorious land of duchies, you also have to clean up dog crap but not urine. Urine goes too far. Ever stumbled on some dog urine in the wild? It's crazy. It's an attack on the best friend of the human race.

I wonder how they propose it be cleaned. Portable water hoses? But, doesn't matter. !a dog owner. Also, !in that particular country, so I'm safe.

We ironically claim that we have the best farmers in the world. It's possible, they're playing the game on hard mode after all. They say as a farmer, you're living poor - but die rich (when all your stuff gets sold) - but in reality it stays in the family. Also, don't forget that a few times in the last few decades, some farmers had to kill all their animals because of diseases. Some farmers switched to wrong animals and had bad luck three times.

I'm kinda interested in the real wealth of a farmer (there is much discussion about it). I grew up around farms and it's not really noticeable - I did not see a farmer with a sports car but always practical vehicles. I personally think that a farmer only has their farm.

I do not think any farmer is really doing it for the money. It's freedom in a certain way, but you're stuck in your farm. It's complicated.

Wow, something is cheaper than a billion these days. Wow.

Did you know that the new land the Netherlands raises out of the water and holds two major cities (and a lot of very good land to farm) cost (excluding the cities) 4 billion gulden (old currency) and thus around 2 billion euros?

That’s what you could do with a few billion. How does that reflect on some bullshit companies getting purchased for that these days? It’s enough money to expand a country!

That info about coffee sucks... because I need that caffeine in my system.

Devplace should show the weather as well. It's the right thing to do. Only thing that misses.

The Netherlands is heading toward a "class of mediocrity"
Wasn't this always the case with the "zesjescultuur"? @retoor

Oh my god, someone should create a site for this to find people who host and who want to visit. To match them. Inviting friends could be your job.

But this is really smart. They know how to do stuff. But does the average citizen there care about 700,-? They're already rich and don't have to pay taxes.

But it's good for everything. Even to find people to move to there. Everything is stimulated. My park should do the same. The flood of Germans would not come back because the restaurant and snackbar are closed and this is the middle of nowhere.

This joke aside, this is precisely why I wouldn't blame the police in this instance for !finding the missing persons. Sometimes your hardware just sucks. https://devopsreactions.tumblr.com/post/139842647151/dealing-with-substandard-hardware .
