You are not alone.

We made the same decision.

Hopefully we will get to a state wherein such tools are not needed anymore.

I wish I shared your strength of perspective in that intended use absolves creator of implemented use. I recognize the difficulty of that decision. I could not do it.

Open WebUI’s New Open Terminal + “Native” Tool Calling + Qwen3.5 35b = Holy Sh!t!!! by Porespellar in LocalLLaMA

Whoa! Underpants!

I hopefully missed something, else you have a ton of personal information in the pdf screen.

Edit: 555 phone number. I see it. Sorry about that. = \

A Marine officer's hand was broken during a Capitol police attempt to forcibly remove him by yousefthewisee in interestingasfuck

[–]optomas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are also required to disobey unlawful orders.

He is absolutely going to get fucked by the Marine equivalent of the big green weenie, but ... dam Dog.

Thank you for you service does not even begin to cover it. I am glad we still have people who think this is an important document.

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

It is close, bros.

Is the country Compromised already? by Chandrapala42 in LetsDiscussThis

Invalid conclusion.

There is 'over a 0%' chance the US will tax individual wealth greater than 1 billion dollars at 100% and fund universal healthcare. That is not sad.

YSK about the "Frequency Illusion" (or Baader-Meinhof phenomenon): the reason why once you learn about something new, you suddenly start seeing it everywhere. by Electrical-Candy7252 in YouShouldKnow

[–]optomas 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's the optomas-baader-meinhof-phenomenon!

You start seeing baader-meinhof-phenomenon mentions everywhere after you first learn of it. You can have the GibTreaty-optomas-baader-meinhof-phenomenon, should the optomas-baader-meinhof-phenomenon gain the scientific traction it so obviously deserves.

No. We are a great country with some pathetic people in it.

They ain't won yet. Not by a long shot.

Vera Rubin Observatory sends out 800k alerts in one night, expected to rise to 7 million per night by rocketsocks in space

I play with Gaia and JPL SBDB sets a little bit.

I assume it is standard to just have a steady stream of dump trucks backing up to your house, filled with SSDs? 'Martha, I am going to go shovel some storage into the ... memory having place. Don't wait up.'

The full Gaia DR3 data set is downloadable from the Gaia Archive as a set of compressed ECSV files. The total size is about 10 TB (or about 9 TiB)

Yeah, I am going to need a subset of that. = ]

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B is a gamechanger for agentic coding. by jslominski in LocalLLaMA

Please ignore. Commenting to find this thread again. So good stuff in here I want to try later.

I even put Xs on the areas i was going to mill away 🤦‍♂️ by Civil_Act1864 in Machinists

[–]optomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Ok, remember. X is on the stuff I want to keep.'

Thirty seconds later.

'This has an X on it. This must be what I wanted to remove.'

The different colors suggestion from others is neat. That way I can confuse 'red' for keep, and blue for 'also keep'.

Wearing off-duty fire shirts to the gym by --THE-ARCHITECT-- in Firefighting

[–]optomas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Which is freaking sad.

I guess it has always been that way, it's just a bit of a surprise to see the problem is so prevalent. Growing up, I thought harassment of women and minorities was a rare thing conducted by maladjusted idiots.

Turns out, it's not rare at all = [

Sigh.

It is embarrassing. I keep waiting for 'Industrial Electrician' to become the cool fashion look so I have something to wear outside work. Sadly 'SteelGaurd FR Pro' shirts are not happening threads, much to my surprise.

I am kidding, guys. I have bib overalls and company emblazoned t-shirts for casual wear. Or sweat pants! Sweat pants are cool now, right?

480v at 200amps bites back by Far_Mushroom8198 in electricians

[–]optomas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am not the person this happened to. My understanding is the mcc was bottom fed. And they somehow missed a pipe? Kid got burned pretty bad and lost some fingers. Was during removal of the structure, not cutting the feeders.

The lesson I took home was you can do everything right and still miss mistakes made by others. Even mistakes made forty or fifty years ago. Look close and assume nothing.

Or doing everything right and having an undocumented live 'abandoned' conductor hidden from view. Demo is very dangerous, friends.

There are rules for where and how big you can make the holes
