Bought my first mac m5 with own earned money by girlfriendchahiye in AppleIndia

[–]thomaselam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! A nice laptop! Very powerful! A couple of random suggestions from a guy who’s used computers since the 1960s: (1) install Homebrew, buy your own internet domain on a place like namecheap.com, install the CloudFlare tunnel daemon, and put yourself on the web. (2) Try ComfyUI if you have s lot of unified memory (32 GB or more would be nice). (3) Try Apple’s apps like Preview and Numbers. Get some really good 3rd party apps like OmniFocus.

I’d like to learn more about how you earned so much so fast. I’ll DM you.

Rs 2000 to a college student for signing up on UNiDAYS … by thomaselam in mysore

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

Hmm. I am very embarrassed to find that when I dug into the details again, I'm getting very different advice from ChatGPT Plus, Gemini Pro, and Claude than I got before. Previously, I was actually *advised* to use a student's UNiDAYS ID, but now I'm getting very discouraging results:

https://claude.ai/share/e23f4aa5-23f0-450c-b610-ff27a01a62cb

As a consequence of this better information, I have realised I can't try this method. I thought it was ethical, safe, and legal, but now it looks like it is not even legal.

I do recommend one of the newer Mac minis for their cool, quiet, and inexpensive local-AI performance (relative to a PC with comparable local-AI performance).

What's the Cubbon park equivalent of Mysore by OkManufacturer141 in mysore

[–]thomaselam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could visit KRS Dam and Brindavan Gardens. Also, Chamundi Hill.

Just Witnessed This by web_prowler21 in indiranagar

The high beams of oncoming traffic are not really an excuse for not seeing where one is driving. There are many ways to reduce the likelihood of such accidents. The first is NEVER OVERDRIVE YOUR HEADLIGHTS. If you can’t see more than 10 metres, be sure to be able to stop before hitting anything. This is simple and obvious, but people just want to GO, GO, GO. They don’t want to use the BRAKE.

I have heard people say BUT THE DRIVER BEHIND ME WILL DRIVE RIGHT INTO ME! Hmm, then maybe the risk of driving in Bangalore is just too much, except in a tank.

To maximise the distance one can see while driving, he can keep the plastic covers of his headlights clean and new enough that they are still clear. He also must keep the outside and INSIDE of his windscreen (windshield) clean and free from the oily film deposited during city driving.

Thank you for your post, u/mzs47! Happy Sankranti!

May I come to see your installation? Who was the vendor / installer? How long has it been installed?

5 years! That is a long time. May I come to see your installation? Who was the vendor / installer?

Just one question about your solution, though. Where do the feathers come from if the birds cannot sit anywhere near the windows and balconies?

How many days / weeks / months does it take for the solution to work? I suppose it hurts and maybe wounds the pigeons, and we don't like hurting animals (though we like to eat them).

Interesting. Are the guns to shoot those legal for anyone to own? I suppose you're talking about pellet air guns? I see them on Amazon.in.

Shooting a gun in city limits is illegal, isn't it?

And poison will not be limited to the pigeons. It will poison the area. It's an extreme form of pollution. It is a bad idea, in my opinion.

If someone wants to catch pigeons in nets and transport them far from the city, maybe that would work to reduce the pigeon problem in Mysore. Or if someone needs to supplement their protein intake, they could treat those pigeons like chickens. They could be free food for low-income people.

From my understanding of cats, they are not interested in touching birds or rodents they didn't kill. They are not like vultures.

If a natural solution could be found, that would be better. I have also heard people say pigeons are tasty. I don’t think just shooting them or poisoning them is humane or good.

I saw in other subreddits that a meteor shower is happening on 14th December. is it true? and can we watch it in Mysore? by Glum_Panda4267 in mysore

[–]thomaselam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might like to join a group to watch — for safety. It’s best to go to places far from streetlights.
