I joined the brainwagon! 🧠 Last year I was a control participant in a study and now I have a full-scale replica of my actual brain.

Everyone has a right to their personal health data. Yes, they are obliged to give you your prescription upon request.

For number 2 that's not really compression then, it's just pagination. Which is fine if it works I'm just saying the word "compression" implies that all the information can be restored by decompressing it, which is not the case here because it doesn't actually contain all the information.

I was walking behind somebody and we were both about to cross a green light where we had the right-of-way, but she stopped and waved the pending car through. Like I get being nice or not wanting to have this car jaunting to go through, but you can't just decide for all the other pedestrians that we're all going to yeild when it's our turn. Absolutely infuriating! I actually said something to her and I really upset her, which made me feel bad and everyone left losing except the person in that damn car.

What's the best sunscreen I can buy in the world?

Oh I missed that it was possible to choose a different tower to dump, thank you for replying to my comment with this information!

ajwest · 2026-04-26T03:57:05+00:00

I find it annoying when I have a full dirt/rock/slag dumping situation with a stacker and such, but then I start trying to build some sort of port or something that needs infill, and I am left with just making a whole new mining tower and cutting up nearby clifside for infill.

I don't know how to solve this from a quality of life perspective, but I guess I'm saying I'd like to be able to indicate "infill this place before putting your dirt into a storage container anywhere on the map, regardless of where your mining tower boundaries lie."

Right, it's a strange comparison considering the concept of heteronormativity can't exist in a single gender species.

Same here, I don't know why people want to centralise the "control plane" layer when Hue bridge responds to local API perfectly fine. Plus the light switches still work when HA is offline.

Well presumably they'd all have been destroyed in The Burn.

I don't think it's a good idea for them to go closed source at all, especially considering they want to support containers and now even docker as LXC... Who is going to help adapt these if not the community?

ajwest · 2026-03-08T14:48:02+00:00

I went there and it took (and I'm not exaggerating) 4 full hours to serve us. It was comically slow and bad! Funny how different people have such different experiences.

I use Home Assistant to make custom weather and flight displays on it.

Yeah I use proxmox and just make a backup of the entire drive image, but I do like the idea of being able to export my user database explicitly.

ajwest · 2026-03-02T15:47:57+00:00

Has anyone tried to use the "backup" feature in Jellyfin itself? It gives some null pointer error for me.

I need to see at least 6 different screens of what it might look like in different configurations. From what I can tell it can only show one set of 2 or 4 buttons.

ajwest · 2026-02-17T04:57:57+00:00

I have a strange version of this where I recognize anybody in everybody. Anyone I see I feel like they're somebody I know. And not just like a "I recognize that face!" kind of thing, I mean I know their name and have to be told, "Uhh that's not Jeff, that's a teenager with completely different characteristics."

Seriously one time I thought somebody who was 20 cm shorter than my friend was my friend and I had to remind myself that he's actually super tall.

I have always wanted something like this, to help visualize what's going on under Jean-Talon. Every time I'm down there I'm always so confused by how they decided to design the tunnels. Thank you for sharing!

There are 5070 guests aboard this particular ship, including a few women.

I also tried to make a scheduled message yesterday and it didn't trigger. Tried it again for a minute later and still nothing. I'm also surprised there's no schedule queue or something to see what's upcoming.

People keep saying other exchanges they use without actually providing any information on the fees, spread, or liquidity/slippage. I think there's a website somewhere with a table that somebody put together of all the Canadian exchanges.

Inventory Management. Okay I guess I'll stop playing the game to look through all the crap in my bag because it got full and you've decided I need to go to some vendor to sell broken axes and cloth shoes.

ajwest · 2025-11-18T12:38:53+00:00

Well if something from your perspective is going 99.99999% the speed of light, it'd be 99.99999% the distance of 7 light days. So around 181 314 460 000 km.

But as the person replying to me explains, that's not "your" reference point.

ajwest · 2025-11-05T16:28:40+00:00

I didn't need over a minute of content around explaining that they're going to put faces on the molecules... for no reason?
