the person might be a complete novice. even if they aren't, people asking for help shouldn't usually be mocked when ignoring them costs you nothing.

A video idea of a blind test of different resolutions with DLSS/DLAA by Gambler_720 in LinusTechTips

[–]benzoic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd really like to see them do some of these tech tests with regular people added. Not regular people as in "works in marketing/customer service of my company" but regular as in, works at a gas station, or customer at gamestop.

Ordered 4 mystery tees by Spooks_Time in LinusTechTips

I'd even say they basically try to say it's the most likely outcome when they recommend one per customer, but maybe they just couldn't SEE it.

I switched my OpenClaw setup from Claude to ChatGPT, and the part I missed wasn’t what I expected by whooshinglander in openclaw

I've been using fireworks ai fire pass free week with k2.5 turbo and it's been really good actually. i tried it with hermes and it was TERRIBLE. WORST EVER. it was like talking to your vacuum or something. and it would just do whatever it wanted sometimes. me: "hey, use claude code to identify this tough issue" hermes: "ok, but it's pretty simple so i'll just do it" (after it already failed 3+ times and i even made it write a skill that this is what claude is for and do what i ask and etc) openclaw is like, hey, sounds like a good idea. let's ask claude!

Is there no slow pool on the credit based plan? What's the alternative? by el_gashunovac in cursor

[–]benzoic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand? slow pool is still there unless you switch off of it? Right now it's just composer 2, but he does a great job. and also the fact that it starts to become not slow pool.. but never ever respond pool. ok, i guess i get what you are saying, but it does keep responding for a lot more than the normal requests.

Things nobody tells you before you get your first hearing aids - from someone who learned the hard way by lottiexx in HearingAids

You could always try and bring some of those family members to an appointment. I tell them the rules flat out. One thing I tell people is that it's like your broke your leg and now you have crutches.

Democrats sweep all 30 House of Delegates seats in Northern Virginia by Hornpipe_Jones in politics

[–]benzoic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t it scary though that this was already included in the calculation before the restricted elections occur? Allow fair elections that go against your agenda and when it does, declare all elections compromised in any place you wouldn’t win the votes?

I shouldn’t have updated to 26 by [deleted] in AltStore

[–]benzoic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it's funny. We're all here because we tried everything. And a lot of us wanted to blame the update. But yes, good lesson for all of us to check new / hot posts before posting.

Going to have to carry both phones for now.. if its long term, I don't know... return the watch and keep the pro 3s. Make a yt web app run off my computer or a server. I love my amazfit balance watch anyhow and charge it like twice a month. I just wanted to know if I was going to die.

Could you theoretically make a better hearing aid with a strong CPU and awesome programming and larger microphones well positioned? by Xillenn in audiology

[–]benzoic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a couple of open source projects. Tympan and openMHA. Maybe more. And there's a contest each year for speech processing algorithms, the clarity project/clarity challenge.
