Not with my dumb free bouncing worx robot. Next robot will solve that problem though. No wires and use GPS (well... RTX, VSLAM, and cameras/sensors). What a time to be alive.

My robot lawnmower keeps getting stuck on my garden beds and I have to walk out at least once a day to restart it.

I've never heard of any of the movies you mentioned...

Geeked off... the yart. Mhmm.

Is that what you would call a high rizz activity?

The rental market immediately dries up as everyone with the ability to move into a rental place does so. Owners of apartments and rental houses immediately divest at the earliest possible time since properties are no longer lucrative. In the meantime, they fail to put any effort into the pretense of basic upkeep except whatever makes their rentals sellable.

The market becomes immediately saturated with previous rental properties now available for individual sale and high supply lowers cost dramatically. The idea of sunk costs makes owners unlikely to sell at rock bottom prices so apartment complexes and the like go out of business, evict everyone and sell their copper from their air conditioners to modestly recuperate the last few months of expenses (water, electricity, leading office staff, etc) and burn them down for insurance money. Single family homes are donated for the use of younger relatives until the market recuperates enough to sell.

It's a wild ride for about $24 worth of months for all renters, then, ultimately, the price of housing comes down but renting is no longer a "thing". Some renters can now afford to buy their own houses (Yahoo!) but without changing the pay structure of society, the most vulnerable of wage workers are now homeless (Crap).

Or something, idk.

The world economies slow down probably.

At negative inflation there is no incentive to spend your money because is becomes increasingly valuable the longer you hold it. With high inflation, there's incentive to spend because the longer you keep your money in the mattress the less it's worth to you.

At zero it just is, but that's less than the usual goal of a couple percent of inflation year over year.

Or maybe I'm full of shit idk.

I permanently lost 1 HP from reading that.

I think cats are cute and babies are cute, and never once has it occurred to me to role play as one? Or to actually invest in roleplaying as one?

I won't yuck your yum, but I think "there are more dimensions", doesn't mean it's NOT a common dimension.

I think neither, though I do prefer Frank's for wings.

I'd be more of a mango habanero kind of a guy for this, but honestly the grill wings taste so good with just the rub on them I would worry about saucing them with something hot that masks the flavor.

 

But it's not as fun to make them when it's 95F outside.

 

3.5 lb prime tomahawk ribeye

 

Lamb sous vide 4h @ 132F seared over natural lump charcoal in the bottom of a chimney starter. (Start a small chimney of charcoal and put it in the base of big chimney, seared on a cooling rack 1 min 20 sec each side). Served against a mixed green salad with some cherry tomatoes.

A great turnout, except for the part where I stepped on a loose piece of charcoal and melted my sock to my foot... Learned a lesson and said some bad words.

 

Wife gets this Easter leftover, and I'll have meatloaf XD

 

Today my PC finally ate it. No POST, no disk activity, so I'm pretty sure the mobo has failed. I built this PC 8 or 10 years ago, and I'm honestly too old and out of touch to know where to start on a rebuild lol.

I'm an arch Linux user, my job is in machine learning, and I'm looking at a soup to nuts style rebuild but I don't know where to start. I want as much future proofing as I can get and I'm happy with a budget anywhere from $2k to $8k. I don't game now, but I might want to in the future.

So it seems like to leverage good ML tools I'm locked to cuda, so probably Nvidia GPU. Does that mean 4070 Ti is the knee in the curve? CPU I came from AMD but I have no idea. RAM speed is something I have never ever considered. And mobo wise, I have a couple of M.2 drives now, but I'm not sure what else should drive decisions? 1 monitor currently that I intend to replace, so I'm not sure why I would need multiple GPUs or something that necessitates a lot of PCIe connections.

I want a plain old closed black case, no color changing gamer shit, and about as much computing power as I can get. Pcpartpicker came up a little short, how do I start?

I've got maybe a week of lead time, then I would like to pull the trigger. This whole build process was a lot easier circa 2003!

 

I have been using the Kasa (TP-Link) branded smart switches around my house, but now that I have a few third reality zigbee sensors for my doors and so on, I am seeing the value of using more outlets/switches that act as zigbee repeaters. Do any of you have pretty reasonable (and cheapish) smart light switches or outlets I can invest in? The Amazon offerings are in the $50 each one which is pretty steep, though I guess I could just do one each room and do the rest with Kasa stuff.

I would like to expand the zigbee mesh network so I can use the devices where I actually want them without using smart outlet devices plugged into real outlets all over the place. If there was something that was $20 or less each item that would be super excellent. The wife and I plan to move in the not too distant future and I'd like to replace the "in the wall" stuff so that HA works throughout the house and I don't have plugs / dongles / wall warts all over the place.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

 

Really enjoying nvim-dap-ui lately, but I always have to adjust the sizes of the windows. The docs have left me high and dry so far, but maybe one of you have a good solution for a consistent layout when you first attach to a file?

 

Or are you open to hearing all kinds of opinions?
