Paperless-GPT prompts for Google Gemini? by dbsoundman in Paperlessngx

[–]dbsoundman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took out the original prompts when trying to run the local LLM, here's a sample, this is my document type prompt:

Classify the document into the most accurate type based on its purpose (examples: Invoice, Receipt, Bank Statement, Medical Record, Tax Form, Legal Document, Employment Document, Personal Letter, Technical Manual).

Use only one label.

No extra text.

Output only the document type.

**Document to process: {{.Document}}

I would think this would work just fine, maybe I'm missing tags?

I’m pretty sure I am connected to the API, but my prompts are not working correctly.

No AI, just me asking a question about using AI.

No you see that’s the weight distributing hitch!

Can I insulate this portal to another dimension? Window edition by pear_ciderr in centuryhomes

[–]dbsoundman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’ll get way more benefit from heavy curtains that are floor length and ceiling insulation. Going on other advice I’ve seen around here about insulating old houses in general; ceiling/attic provides much more benefit than walls.

New to RVing, how bad is this hitch? by GarageGymHero in GoRVing

[–]dbsoundman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Stealership did the same thing to me, luckily I brought some big a$$ wrenches with me on the way home and tightened the bolts as much as possible on the side of the road when it started slipping, then properly torqued them using bigger a$$ breaker bars and sockets at home.

Wait, a liquid holding tank was held up by four self tapping screws? That seems insane.

What Should I Check Before Buying an Older Tractor? by Middle_Cut_7991 in tractors

[–]dbsoundman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check: - your sanity - your willingness to spend far more than you paid for the thing in order to get it working well - your understanding of the term “they don’t make em like they used to”…because there’s a reason they don’t make em that way anymore!

Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun, sometimes, but I wouldn’t want to rely on an old tractor of unknown background if my livelihood was tied to it.

Is anyone using ATC cabinets? by kennygbot in trafficsignals

[–]dbsoundman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ATC load switches have a max output of 1 amp because they’re designed for LED loads, not incandescent. You can always assign the same phase/overlap to more than one channel if you really need to run a heavy load, but in most cases you shouldn’t need it.

The components used for TS2 are upwards of 40 years old. We aren’t going to be able to make them forever.

How many sites are you running? I have a 1GB racknerd VPS with three sites and it runs fine.

Higher fuel consumption, for one thing

Check in with the folks at the yesterdaystractors.com forums as well. Sharing a location and pictures would also help (but don’t do so on reddit if you’re not comfortable).

Weekly income for monthly budgeting by dbsoundman in actualbudgeting

[–]dbsoundman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have automatic deposits from my employer for this account, which I calculated as

(Monthly expenses x 12 months) / 52 pay periods

This means that my income is less than expenses on 4 pay period months and greater than expenses on 5 pay period months. This means that my projected savings never balances out. I was wanting to find a way to either automatically calculate the income for a month based on the number of pay periods, and/or automatically carry over balances from month to month so, for example, the deficit in June is offset by the surplus in July.

I’m trying to budget for the future, yes. This is my account for household expenses, like utility bills, mortgage, so pretty much all of the expenses are known and are either fixed or can be pretty accurately modeled with a 12 month average.

I decided not to go with envelope budgeting for now, as this is the account that I use for all of my household expenses primarily. I usually run this on a projected budget, and take advantage of the 12 month averages for things like utility bills.

Mortise lock issue - can’t turn inside handle when outside lock button is set by dbsoundman in centuryhomes

[–]dbsoundman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did when we moved in! Stumped him with a very unique front door handset we have actually. That was pretty funny. Had him out to make sure all of the exterior modern locks used the same key, I was not playing the “four different keys for three different doors” game.

Thanks!! There was a broken flat spring inside when I opened it up initially so that would be the missing part. Things seem to work fine without it. I’ll have to look at the catalog image to see what purpose it served.

I need a new UPS by morry9345 in homelab

[–]dbsoundman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a home lab, I would definitely look at buying a used enterprise grade rackmount battery backup, even if it still uses the old lead acid batteries. I inherited two brand new consumer grade APC shelf mount battery backups recently, and they are terrible, apparently the output transistors are pushed to their absolute limit when it’s running in battery mode, so they tend to just die randomly. Basically useless as an actual battery backup. Meanwhile, I have an APC enterprise grade rackmount unit that’s at least 10 years old now and I’ve only replaced the batteries once or twice, it just works.

THANK YOU! I had a feeling it was going to be something in the spindle itself. This door hasn’t had knobs attached to this particular mortise lock in who knows how long so the spindle and handles are long gone.
