Yep, that’s the one.

I’ll reserve a phone but not a truck, lol. Looks like those are scheduled to be out late 2026, so probably at least next year before I can even think about getting my hands on one.

At least it’s still a thing.

I used to drive a 2004 Ranger and loved it. Would absolutely love an EV version even if the range isn’t super great. Mostly need a truck occasionally and for hauling stuff from the home improvement store or if I find furniture at a garage sale or something.

Need to check and see if that $20,000 no-frills EV truck is making any progress.

I never had one but they had them at school. Thought they were the coolest thing ever and also assumed digital because CDs were starting to become popular.

Haven’t made it to the store this week, so using what I’ve got: Whipped cream vodka and Strawberry-Watermelon Mio.

“What if it won’t turn off?”

“What if it won’t turn back on?”

“What if the valve just snaps off and sprays everywhere?”

Yep, I understand completely.

And the auto-submitting TOTP entry form where you’re apparently not allowed to make a typo. And obscuring the TOTP number like it’s a password or state secret.

TIL and nice bit of trivia!

Audio transcribing should be the little “waveform” icon at the right of the text input:

Image generation, I’m not sure as that’s not a use-case I have and don’t think the small-ish models I run are even capable of that.

I’m not sure how audio transcribing works in OpenWebUI (I think it has built-in models for that?) but image generation is a “capability” that needs to be both part of the model and enabled in the models settings (Admin => Settings => Models)

I feel like I’m stepping around landmines replying this, but I never liked the analogy either. It works fine at a small scale, and I’m fine with that, but everyone here wants to apply it universally at a macro scale to the point it’s just ridiculous.

e.g. If a nazi moves in down the street, and everyone else doesn’t up and move, regardless of their financial situation, you live in a nazi neighborhood. Guess you and your kids should just go live in your car because…moral purity or something.

I know exactly what episode you’re talking about, and yes! That’s both my fear and my experience.

Well, I clearly need a foreman then lol. That’s the part where my projects usually fall apart or struggle.

Touch one thing, you find everything else attached to it is rotted or held together with caulk and a dream.

Oh, god, literally that.

I can do the repairs pretty confidently, but I suck at the planning and get completely overwhelmed going to Lowes/Home Depot and dread the multiple trips I always have to make because I forgot something, find something else that needs replaced, or bought the wrong size/style.

Setting a DIY deadline is a really good suggestion, at least as far as “might actually work for me” goes. Thanks!

I gotchu.

I’d like to see some of the novelverse villains. The Grigari come to mind.

They’re kind of like the Borg but turned up to 11.

I’ll come hang out, but I will not be helping you move any furniture.

Disclaimer: : All of my LLM experience is with local models in Ollama on extremely modest hardware (an old laptop with NVidia graphics) , so I can’t speak for the technical reasons the context window isn’t infinite or at least larger on the big player’s models. My understanding is that the context window is basically its short term memory. In humans, short term memory is also fairly limited in capacity. But unlike humans, the LLM can’t really see (or hold) the big picture in its mind.

But yeah, all you said is correct. Expanding on that, if you try to get it to generate something long-form, such as a novel, it’s basically just generating infinite chapters using the previous chapter (or as much of the history fits into its context window) as reference for the next. This means, at minimum, it’s going to be full of plot holes and will never reach a conclusion unless explicitly directed to wrap things up. And, again, given the limited context window, the ending will be full of plot holes and essentially based only on the previous chapter or two.

It’s funny because I recently found an old backup drive from high school with some half-written Jurassic Park fan fiction on it, so I tasked an LLM with fleshing it out, mostly for shits and giggles. The result is pure slop that seems like it’s building to something and ultimately goes nowhere. The other funny thing is that it reads almost exactly like a season of Camp Cretaceous / Chaos Theory (the animated kids JP series) and I now fully believe those are also LLM-generated.

I always saw Ken as just as out of touch as the rest of the characters, but I think you’re right. Relatively speaking, he is the straight man character. TIL.
