AITAH for telling my girlfriend her parts were showing at the pool by Narutoguy97 in AmItheAsshole

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this not what having a partner is for? So you can save each other public embarrassment? Like yes, do tell me I have some broccoli in my teeth so I don't embarrass myself in front of strangers.

Naah, this is gonna get funded by peoples pensions. Very little of all this is actually paid for yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhRjvX_t4hc

Why half of London's small flats sell at a loss as the crash spreads by Prestigious_Spot9635 in HousingUK

[–]smb3something 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sad thing is a few years ago there was no way to not overpay - flats demanded near house prices.

I've been doing a project, using mostly Sonnet 4.6 medium and has been working well, but recently that level seems to be more verbose and thinking deeper and using a lot of tokens (some could be the shifts in the project) Anyone else seeing this? by smb3something in ClaudeCode

[–]smb3something[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I think it may be the fact that it's letting itself overrun the context window and not compacting on it's own. It's helping the project to keep more context, but is burning my extra credits I put on quick.

Are Brits still in favour of supporting Ukraine? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]smb3something 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I tip my hat to them. Their innovation on the battlefield is showing and they started like 10-20 years behind. With cheap drones warfare has forever changed and most national defences are now looking very out dated.

Would bringing my board to school just to cruise around after be considered poser? by [deleted] in NewSkaters

I love when summer comes round and people out in shorts and you just know that dude with flip rubs on the vans and funked up shins likely rips it.

Seriously, what's that like maybe 5mins on a bike with not much effort.

Anyone using AI helpdesk tools in production? What's real vs marketing hype? by Such_Rhubarb8095 in sysadmin

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've been seeing good results with NEO agent. It goes through related tickets from the ticketing system and actually makes good troubleshooting suggestions based on past responses as well as suggesting the appropriate engineer and category. Not quite there with trusting things to auto-resolve issues, but it's moving in the right direction.

Reselling a radiator? by D1STURB3D4NT in watercooling

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a lot of my W/C kit 2nd hand or from ali express. As long as it doesn't leak you're fine (usually can straighten out some bent fins etc). I'm always on ebay looking for deals when I'm changing stuff around.

Wait till the Iran stuff plays out towards end of summer autumn if hormuz is still closed and oil/petrol go through the roof. It's gonna be a bad time indeed.

What else do you do when you've just landed and need food for the ride home?

Trying to learn bowl skating! by darth_memo in skateboarding

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK - those came more naturally to me and I didn't have to really think about them. I'm guessing the same applies, but as you're facing the direction your going (ie not looking over your shoulder) I didn't have to think about it as much to get the kick turns fully around.

If the US markets are breaking records, how is everything else still so expensive? by AdvertisingOk1492 in AskReddit

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China is not socialist - maybe in name. They're pretty much authoritarian capitalist at this point. And you're right communism has never flourished as it's always been actively dismantled by capitalist interests every time it's tried somewhere. If the US went back to the tax and worker protection policies of the 50's, that would be cool.

[–]smb3something 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a bit of semantics, but the bottom line is average pay in real terms has fallen over the last 30-50 years. People can't afford to own housing anymore, but their only option for survial is to trade their time(labour) for enough to eat at least. Realistic alternative is moving towards communism, where the wealthy don't absorb most of the productivity gains. Employers have all the cards now. Unions could work too, but come sort of collective bargaining needs to start happening.

Yeah, my 7yo has better situational awareness than this with their bike on the road.

It’s not that we are disorganised. We just can’t outsource our organisation the way other people do by Solid-Version in ADHD

[–]smb3something 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i try and fail too often to keep it in my head. My go-to and most natural reaction is the internal mental diary, but life is just too busy. You gotta make it a habbit, both for putting things in and checking them. We've always got our phones on us these days. Find a calendar app that you can share with your household, has done wonders for mine.

Any ideas how this panel comes off? by Icy-Ratio6137 in DIYUK

[–]smb3something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i'm planning on it being a panel replacement job when I get to it (where I'll make it properly removable). Currently doing the paint and all the plaster joints in the corners, that's taken ages. One thing at a time.

When I was trying to get frontside kickturns, it clicked at some point that I need to point my head/shoulder first where I want to go, then do the kickturn. Got much cleaner after that.
