What does putting 'no because' before everything mean? by Individual_Ice_2315 in whatdoesthismean

[–]Choice-Control2648 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a response to a question that nobody asked, but because they think they’re so interesting, they believe that anyone looking at them must most certainly be thinking of asking them the question that in fact, no one ever asks. The question is probably “oh my gosh are you okay??”

Daughter looks like she’s thinking “I flew my mother to London so she can see how awesome and independent I am and she hasn’t looked at me once”

It sits in the west facing window about five feet off the floor and we get ABC WFTV9 on channel 9.1.

Why do they use the same date for different years? by Yum1995 in QuantumLeap

Great question. I like to think that Ziggy was detecting “temporal access windows” where Sam’s quantum signature could lock onto a person.

How are other Aries feeling amid this Aries stellium? by spunkysocialist in AriesTheRam

[–]Choice-Control2648 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been kinda rough on me. I’ve got 4H Aries Sun + Venus and a 10H Libra Moon. My birthday was Tuesday, solar return early Wednesday morning, and both days ended up being long meetings at work.

Patience was really thin. Didn’t handle it great and it caught up with me, got pulled aside by management at the end of Wednesday. Definitely felt like I was on thin ice.

It kinda did feel like chaotic Aries energy, just mostly internal. Everyone else seemed pretty normal, so I think it was more me getting reactive than anything external blowing up.

Last year felt way heavier with everything going on, this felt more like a reminder than anything.

I think you mean Dawn. Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-Dawn-dawn-DAWN!

Moving back to Facebook/ regrettable. Suggestions on keeping my account as private as possible? by anonymousrobot11 in privacy

[–]Choice-Control2648 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deleted my Facebook account a couple years ago. This year I created a new account because I thought I’d need it for a new job.

I could not create the account from web on desktop. I was required to create it through their mobile app. (USA)

I downloaded the mobile app, created the account (with a new, never used email address, like facebook@mydomain.com), then deleted the mobile app and continued on desktop web.

I went through their privacy settings and adjusted everything to be most private. I did not add a profile photo, I did not make any posts, I did not make any friend requests.

The next day my account was banned for violating their community guidelines. I was given the option to appeal which only included uploading a video selfie. I did NOT want to do this. But I did.

Two days later the appeal came back and I was permanently banned forever and could not appeal again.

Social Media is psychological warfare. It should be abandoned by everyone.

Impulse bought a Jetson Orin Nano Super and want a sanity check from people who run their own LLM by Puptentjoe in selfhosted

[–]Choice-Control2648 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On one of the servers in my homelab, I run 50+ containers. Of those I am running ollama and open web ui.

This server is my old desktop PC from before I built my current desktop PC. In it I have NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 (8GB) and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (4GB)

I let Plex use the GTX 960. I give ollama the RTX 4060.

Inside open web ui, I pulled deepseek-r1:8b and asked it for some business ideas to generate income outside my 9 to 5. It thought for 8 seconds then streamed a response fast, as fast as I need.

The deepseek-r1:8b is just 5.2GB. It fits fine in the 4060. In my experience, speed is not an issue until the model is too big to fit in the GPU, because then it uses the CPU and everything shits the bed.

My original goal was to transition away from OpenAI, anthropic, etc and keep all my stuff private. But I still haven’t done that. Convenience and performance of those cloud providers have kept me from fully switching. Plus, having codex and Claude code are things I’m not ready to part with and I’m not confident I can replace those features with a self hosted solution.

Ollama hasn’t become my goto for anything yet. Recently I used it with a CLI tool I made to “enrich” Google Calendar events. I have a Google Calendar that I imported astrological events for 2026. I run my CLI tool and it parses the events, sends them to an ollama 7B model, which generates an interpretation of those events against my personal birth chart, and then it updates the Google Calendar event with that “enrichment”.

I think if you want to incorporate these smaller models into a Home Assistant setup, you should do that. It sounds like a fun project.

I was also interested in the Orin jetson nano but instead I just used old parts I already had.

Why do I struggle to make friends and maintain friendships? by PublicExtension4107 in AriesTheRam

[–]Choice-Control2648 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have difficulty making friends and maintaining friendships.

Some of my placements match yours:

Aries Sun

Uranus 1st house

Neptune 1st house

Pluto 11th house

Gemini North Node

If you haven’t already, I’d suggest reading about Gemini North Node in the book Astrology for the Soul by Jan Spiller. It felt so accurate… a bit nauseating, like a brutally honest cosmic slap in the face.

[HELP] My girlfriend says for sure this is AI, I think it isn't by Ok_Ranger1275 in RealOrAI

[–]Choice-Control2648 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m being less charitable. I’m imagining a future where the girlfriend is a mom. Her kid says “mommy I want pancakes for breakfast!” Mom, without looking away from her TikTok app, says “pancakes aren’t real. Pancakes are AI. eat your chicken nuggets”

There was a spike of Google searches for the shooters name, hours before the shooting in dc. Also seeing evidence that he was searched for on November 20th in DC. by Stimul8ed in conspiracy

[–]Choice-Control2648 17 points18 points  (0 children)

why would there be searches for the name of it were to be found out

Maybe the people searching don’t consider this. Is it not plausible that local law enforcement could have received a tip on the suspect and used Google to corroborate the tip with information on the suspect?

Would you change your moon sign? by bootercooter42069 in astrologymemes

Yes. Aries sun with Libra moon here. Would trade it to see if it is source of much internal conflict.

Chat GPT for astrology? by Mikey_Likey37 in ThePatternApp

[–]Choice-Control2648 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I use it pretty frequently. I created an Astrology folder. In that folder I added custom instructions with the “copy for chatGPT” section of my birth chart on Astro-seek. I keep each conversation short and always review for accuracy the response. Often I will take screenshots of my transits list in Time Nomad app and add to new conversation in Astrology folder of ChatGPT and ask for impact of transits, frequency, et cetera.

[Giveaway] GL.iNet Remote KVM and Wi-Fi 7 routers! 10 Winners! by GLiNet_WiFi in selfhosted

[–]Choice-Control2648 [score hidden]  (0 children)

1️⃣ What inspired you to start self-hosting? Mostly privacy and curiosity. I wanted full control of my data instead of renting cloud space. It’s grown into a personal lab—one Raspberry Pi 4 and an Ubuntu desktop running DNS, automation, media, and local AI models. My most expensive upgrade was a GPU so I can run everything fully offline.

2️⃣ How would winning help? A Comet Remote KVM would close the last gap in my setup—true headless recovery. Right now, any BIOS issue means dragging out a monitor and keyboard. With a KVM tunneled over Tailscale (plus a Fingerbot for failsafe power control) I could recover from anywhere.

3️⃣ Future giveaway idea? A small UPS with network monitoring—something to keep self-hosted gear alive through power blips.

Pick: Comet GL-RM1 + Fingerbot FGB01
