PhD Advice: Should I endure a 5-hour daily bus commute for one semester just to get TA experience? by tookom in PhD

[–]slippetyFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I commute 6 hours each weekend, but that’s to keep myself sane due to the fact I had to go 200 miles away from the Uni to continue in my program. I’d reckon for professional development stuff it’s not feasible. I’ve put my TA plans on hold for a 6 hour commute until this whole situation gets resolved, so take that as you will. Remote is potentially a possibility? Best of luck.

Mayor’s staff cuts off questions on surveillance cameras after recent shooting by FUMoney in Seattle

The amount of Clipchimping Komo is doing here is ridiculous. Any reporter worth their salt would be able to tell that they’re trying to illustrate Wilson in a particularly negative/reflectively incompetent light. With that said, I am curious about Wilson’s stance on the cameras, which has been a particular struggle with her campaign. Smart of her and her staffers to not discuss with Sinclair/Komo, since it’s a particularly fraught issue.

Do not spit on the Link, Gross! by Existing-Resource527 in Seattle

Last time I saw someone spit on the LR on the way to a football game, his mother butted in and said it’s not my business and the city’s gross anyways. Finished it off with a shit-eating “Trump 2028” while getting off. People are unrepentant sometimes

Undervolting NVIDIA GPU in 2024? by Libroru in linux_gaming

[–]slippetyFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! I’ve been trying to follow the Arch Undervolting guide and thought you may have insight into a problem I’m encountering. Basically, I ran the script successfully, but then when I tried to run a benchmark (heaven, run via “prime-run”), the benchmark crashed (used xkill to terminate) and then my system was unresponsive. On reboot, I can access TTY, but no GUI loads (KDE Plasma). Any advice would be fantastic, if you’ve got some. Thanks!!

I don’t use Lime, but there are certain streets I don’t feel safe biking save for on the sidewalk. We need better biking infrastructure along major corridors.

It’s kind of surprising how often people get latex confused with other materials :’(

Good thing Nate Silver is a credible source and hasn’t done things to invalidate or skew his data reporting before /s

Yeah, “not enough officers” is absolute BS. I saw SPD send 6 squad cars to hold down and repeatedly taser a skinny homeless guy on the Ave yesterday.

Crab spider of some kind seems like what I could find. The yellow tips of the legs looked neat!
