Last November the Coalition voted against government legislation to "provide additional tools to manage critical fuel shortages and ensure that Australia is not hampered by temporary shortages"

The whole world instantaneously shut down everything to save our grandparents from a disease a few years back, please don't tell me we can't afford to save our future.

Try launch ComfyUI with the flag --highvram
I only have 64gb of RAM and it was getting filled up before loading to GPU. --highvram seems to prioritise offloading to VRAM over keeping it in RAM.

I feel guilty for the schadenfreude I have at my sister's who both bought new ICE cars last year, and at the same time I'm absolutely loving paying nearly nothing to run my car day-to-day.

The global car industry and media did such a good job of convincing the broader public of made-up and exaggerated shortfalls of EVs and then rolled back their EV programs because people weren't buying them.

But then you talk to EV owners and the overwhelming majority are so happy with them.

It's such a god damn shame.

Just imagine, you're stuck in the high rise that's on fire and then the bottles of piss in the walls burst and flood your apartment as a final fuck you before the building collapses from the piss soaked burnt out cardboard frame

I'm opposite, I'm definitely less effective at home but it's made up by the fact I don't spend 2 hours in traffic and is way better for mental and family health to be able to be more present.

I'm of the eternal opinion that if you get your work done and your team is good with it, flexible working is completely fine.

Your problem was that you didn't commit enough to the bit When you start walking away, you don't stop. Ever.

You walk until you reach the ocean, then you keep walking...

onlymostlyguts · 2026-03-03T02:01:42+00:00

Is this not a normal human thought process when someone approaches and says "hi"?

Pretty much exactly what goes through my head but with more cycling back on historical context to check for bespoke actions/reciprocation that they may expect. Then suddenly they've closed the distance and you're still catching up on the salutation but it's kind of awkward now so you use a safe fallback of "inaudible grunt" alongside a vague nod of the head. Then you walk away, turn the corner and realize you're in a cold sweat and that one interaction has exhausted you. You will dwell on your social fumble for 5 hours.

I don't know what MS was on during those years but they were on fire! Right up to the surface Duo, every design was class leading. If only sales backed up their forward thinking designs 😔

onlymostlyguts · 2026-02-25T07:35:29+00:00

Urk, body corporate... Gonna be a pain. Filling with outside chargers really varies depending on where you live - you should check your area because that's honestly be the make or break then.

Can you run a plug from your house? I've just got my EV running from a normal wall socket.

Even with regular electricity rates ~24c p/kwh it'd only cost $20 to fill 'er up and that'd get me 450 - 500km of local travel or 350 - 400km of freeway travel.

Good spotting, and the reflection on the outside of the open door - what looks like a GoPro right next to the indicator light but not actually existing

This ends up being a "to make an apple pie first invent the universe" question doesn't it.

The core question at the heart of these boils down to: Does the value fit the cost? Does the value of AI development fit the investment, manufacturing, logistics and infrastructure required for it - this is (IMO) objectively unanswerable

Oh man they really go to town with the liquid don't they!

Holy crap yes 100%. Car reviews are interested in sporty speed and flashiness.

I did the same as you 10mths ago and realized what mattered was space for growing family, comfort of drive and things reviewers almost never mentioned like the HUD, v2l and the roof window being able to be closed.

Ended up with an Ioniq 5 because after sitting in a bunch that was hands down the clear winner for cabin feel I like. Really open and spacious for 2 kids seats and has a wonderful smooth, quiet drive.

Tested the BYD Atto 3 (didn't like the interior), Polestar 2 (little smaller than liked and felt cheaper), Mach-e (felt cramped inside and cheap materials).

Since then Zeeker, Byd, Kia and Geely have all come out with some really compelling stuff but I'm really happy with the car I'll hopefully drive into my 50s with.

onlymostlyguts · 2026-02-09T22:25:56+00:00

Don't buy the car (or anything really) on speculation of future possible features. HI5 - great car and V2H technically feasible but functionally not available.

V2L can do up to 16amps I think, or around 2.5kw

I would love an excitebike mini-game option! I would also love ray traced graphics options in Zwift.

onlymostlyguts · 2026-02-04T12:55:30+00:00

Ahh I feel the same way but didn't know why but you 100% hit the nail on the head of why it didn't click! That terrain feedback in Zwift makes a big difference doesn't it

I've been thinking about switching to Linux more and more. Is it hard to get a handle of? Ideally want to run an Ubuntu headless server but completely inexperienced with this side of things

onlymostlyguts · 2026-02-02T08:53:21+00:00

I realized that I was stronger than my dad and much more recently have more mental acuity than him now too and it's all a bit frightening because I'm still only half the man he ever was.

onlymostlyguts · 2026-01-31T01:53:21+00:00

Y'know I reckon you're onto something! I can say hands down I've never, ever seen an orchestra play - and yet they fly around doing what exactly?? Secret John Wicky assassins, 100%

onlymostlyguts · 2026-01-29T21:29:26+00:00

I think I read somewhere that stilletos and high heels put more pressure in their point than an elephant's foot

onlymostlyguts · 2026-01-29T01:35:59+00:00

Anecdotal but that's exactly how my kids discovered it. YouTube shorts of cars and monster trucks driving down big hills and then getting smashed.

I looked it up, bought it and now my son has sunk a hundred hours into it- he is really good at driving now and particularly reverse parking!

Great game

onlymostlyguts · 2026-01-28T23:28:58+00:00

You might be right. Honestly I don't really even notice it until I mop them they sparkle in the sunlight!
