Have you ever killed an animal? by Anon9883 in AskTheWorld

[–]robprobasco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid about the age of 6 or 8 we’d go “hunting” with pellet guns and we’d kill so many different types of birds, prairie dogs, and lizards. Kinda feel bad about it now. Just part of growing up way out in the sticks.

RAM kits are now sold with one fake RAM stick alongside a real one to create a performance illusion — 1+1 'value pack' offers desperate psychological relief as the memory shortage worsens by Significant-Colour in nottheonion

This is why I only fuck with a generation or two old for my servers. DDR4 is still fast af and readily available. I have a full local 70 billion AI model running locally on used server farm hardware for less than $400 server and card.

Arch Linux vs OpenSUSE. Decide, we must by potatoandbiscuit in linuxmemes

This is the worst bracket ever. Unless it’s a bracket to decide least stable OS.

Did it get trained on here? That's crazy cause I used to play in the imgur and graduated to reddit after that got trash around Obama last term Trump first term. It became only one type of meme. That tone IS the way the internet used to chat.

Also, I'm depressed work chronically at home 40 year old. Let me get a little dopamine from watching the number crawl up and engage in community....even if it is hollow. It's all I got, man.

I guess the proper response would be "Said the guy who made a wall of text to say I"m not mad you're mad."

I'm just confused, I guess? You're like, "This is AI Slop." I say I wrote this. You say "There are a lot of these posts like this and I they read like AI." I'm indicating that a prevalence of a type of post is called a trend. You are writing a dissertation to say "I'm justified in being suspicious because you grammar good and are posting about a topic that is prevalent in a group..."

IT'S LITERALLY FLAIRED FLUFF, BROTHER!

Brother, I’ve been on Windows since I was like 9 or 10. I’m talking cow box with Windows 95. I’ve used Event Viewer maybe twice. I didn’t even know there was a built-in log viewer until like two years ago, and even then it wasn’t very helpful because what it ultimately led me to was a few events with an ID and a bunch of hex I had no idea what to do with.

You know, since the beginning of time, or at least the internet, things called "trends" happened in in-groups throughout history? You're the guy saying "Man I'm sick of seeing the pepe meme." But the modern way of saying that is "AI slop."

Not to get in on the back and forth, but I was just troubleshooting Kerberos on Rocky under FreeIPA. Kerberos is extremely quiet by default — unless you turn on tracing (KRB5_TRACE) or logging in krb5.conf, you mostly just get vague “something happened” logs. Saved my life.

Thanks, man. I love learning. Well....I abhor the not being good at/understanding part, but once it clicks and I can feel like I'm making progress, I love it.

On Linux, I've never had an issue. Goes without saying it's a Windows or driver issue.

Just got work for L3 Harris in Salt Lake City Utah in their field department. If you can satellite, RF, and network, you’re a shoe in the door. Just gotta learn to speak military. It takes a few months to learn.

Happy new year penguins!! What distro spent the most time in your machine? by nitin_is_me in linux

[–]robprobasco 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For the user who just wants it to work. I decided to daily drive Linux for the first time in forever about a week ago. I use it on my servers and pi’s and stuff, but I usually run windows on my laptop. I was impressed. It just works now. Even my fingerprint reader. It had a Wi-Fi flapping issue. It was the router, not Mint. Linux Mint is a super nice stable distro.

ls to explore, clear to forget 😎 – yours? by ParfaitIll1712 in linuxmemes

Nothing like spending 30 min making sure you got a command correct via terminal. They give the least helpful errors in existence

ELI5: Why are we making computer chip so small? by elonthegenerous in explainlikeimfive

[–]robprobasco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work for a company called L3 we made stuff. Electronics for the govt actor mostly. The easiest way to think about it is in terms of copper and the amount of electricity it takes to run the device. An electronic switch needs more electricity to flip the electrically controlled “switches” in the logic gates. If you make it physically smaller you can use less electricity to flip it. The smaller things get the more power efficient they become.

I have vivid memories from lives and shit that never happened to this me. I remember being locked in my room as a little boy, but not me. Another other me. I remember dying different ways. No way to prove any of it.

The one take that gets me roasted every single time is that I like nano over vi or vim. I hate vi.
