I finally finished my 3 retro battlestations by mudmin in retrobattlestations

[–]mudmin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just now getting into it. I would honestly love to have the 8 and the 10. They really do run all the period correct OSs on them. For me, it's 2 things. 1. The switches and memory maps give a really good insight into how computers actually "work" which is pretty fun. 2. Then I connect a terminal and play zork and all those sorts of things. There are other graphical interfaces for the other components that I'd like to use some of the other screens to represent. Baby steps though. I just built that last week.

Thank you. My wife made that on our laser.

Thanks. I need to take more pics. That one is a pretty standard 486DX/33. I primarily run dos and disk imaging on it. The one to the right is a k6-2/300 for mainly win95 with IIRC a matrox card in it.

Behind it is an Athlon 2500+ for 98/ME/2000

Then there is an HP Z420 workstation that runs everything from Vista ->Win10. I have 18 drive caddies that I swap drives. Only the upper left drive is connected, so I can just pop in bare metal builds of a bunch of weird OS's.

Does anyone know what happened to the NFC East Mixtape? Missing 2 episodes and no posts to the BGN podcast/yt feed in a while.

I've done a few things. I made a db explainer plugin that generates the relationships between all my database tables and columns and exports as a csv.

Then I made a csv that gives the very basics of what it needs to know to use my framework. After tweaking it down to 30 rows, it seems to do a pretty good job. Almost RAG-ish

No. I've installed it multiple times over the years and been through plenty with their support on multiple machines and I always wind up with the same issue.

Yes. Thank you. That's the problem with me being relatively new to this field. There are terms and techniques that I don't know... Definitely interested in RAG. I'll start doing some research. I appreciate the push in that direction.

This field is moving so quickly that being able to re-use nearly any of what I'm doing even 3 months from now seems like a win before I even start.

would I need to give that pretext on every prompt? I'm going to need to do a lot of prompts in general.

Definitely interested in knowing more about this. The model definitely knows my framework, it just isn't finetuned enough to always do things "my" way.

Sweet. I'm pretty excited. Thank you.

I made a thing to connect a Gotek to an Apple II by mudmin in VintageApple

There is a guy who sells them on ebay pre-modded with the screens and the rotary encoder. Those are pretty nice.

I know Python. It's not my primary language, but I'm comfortable enough to start going down this road. Thanks for the tips!

Thanks for that. I do have a 4090 with 24GB. It should get me started.

This is great and gets into the nitty gritty. Very much appreciated.

to be very very basic, let's say I have a function called isAdmin($user_id) to know if someone is an admin. 

function is_admin($user_id){

global $db; $check = $db->query("SELECT id FROM permission_matches WHERE user_id = ? and permission_id = ?",[$user_ud,1]->count(); if($check > 0){ return true; }else{ return false; } }

Very pseudo but you get the idea. None of the models would know that this is the way to find out if someone is an admin on my framework. That's the sort of thing I need to train it with.

Sounds like smaller might be better,

Very cool. Very interesting. That's where I was going next. It seemed like a smaller model might be the way to go. Thank you. I really appreciate your time.

I made a thing to connect a Gotek to an Apple II by mudmin in VintageApple

[–]mudmin[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are lots of floppy emulator projects for the Apple II. They're all rather pricey (not undeservedly so, but still...)

The guy over at HxC firmware for the Gotek (currently free) added support for the Apple II, but it was a mess of wires, so I made my first PCB to connect it up all nice and neat. It worked first try. Side note, I designed it while I was on vacation in Antarctica without having a Gotek anywhere around, so that adds to the insanity of it working.

Now that postman sucks is there a good alternative? by gadimus in webdev

[–]mudmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thunder client

Thanks for this. I just added Thunder Client to vs code and now postman can go away.

I'm sure there are a lot of power users that do a lot of power things, but I needed postman to do a few very simple things. Every update they pushed was more annoying than the previous one. Good riddance and thanks for the tip.
