And once you’ve been sufficiently blown away by those great recommendations, check out Magic Sword. The Sword of Truth is a good starting point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt2qgY31ziE

Really glad to see someone say Earthbound. I love that game and have really enjoyed sharing it with my kids. I started them young on it while teaching them to read. I’ll sit with them and narrate the game and it really helps them a lot with learning to read. Just got to Happy Happy Village with one of them the other day.

I leave a lot of one star reviews for anything that pulls that crap.

DDG also seems to exclude some websites from search even if you specifically give terms that should give results for a site. Try searching for any model from Bad Dragon’s website like “bad dragon nova” or another sex toy maker “mr hankeys beefcake” and the first result should be for the item on the maker’s website. I can’t ever get DDG to give results and safe search is already off. It has been like this for years.

It can run with a variety of systems. You just need to have enough VRAM on your video card to fit the model and then it can run pretty fast. There are models down to a couple hundred MB in size, but they’re quite limited. There are other models that are 245GB in size, though the bigger ones use a “mixture of experts” where only portions of the model are loaded as needed, and the rest stays unused for the particular task at hand. If you don’t have enough VRAM to fit the model, it will fall back to running on the CPU and using the system ram. Most of the operations are limited by the speed of the memory that’s running the model. Video card memory is much faster than system memory so that’s what helps it run a lot faster. It can still get the job done but you will have to wait quite a while for the output. There are ways of making the models smaller by using quantization. Quantization reduces the precision of the models parameters (the number with the b next to it in models i.e. 4b, 8b, 14b, 30b, etc.) by taking it from 32-bit data down to 8-bit or smaller. This allows more data to be packed in a smaller space, but it reduces accuracy a bit.

I’m running ollama and open-webui and some unsloth modified models for some general purpose stuff.

The https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507-GGUF model has been pretty good. Beware it’s a Chinese model so you can get some funny results if you ask about Tiananmen Square or if certain people resemble Winnie the Pooh. For making Linux configurations it works great.

Some gemma3 models are okay but it doesn’t seem as good. Same for Phi4 models.

I used to think the same thing and would have my wife wax me. The razor is much faster, doesn’t hurt at all, and accomplishes the goal of keeping my massive ass forest under control.

Shaving works too. I’ve gotten pretty good at getting it clean with a double edge safety razor. About once every couple of weeks keeps the wiping pretty easy.

Insurance won’t cover a reversal. It will be 100% out of pocket.

At first it felt like I was sleeping on top of the bed rather than being “in bed” if that makes any sense. I’d also recommend king size if you have the room. Having the extra room for toys and other accessories on the bed has been great.

I really like it in extra firm as it provides a lot of support for any position you want. It doesn’t bounce too much like a plusher mattress would which can get tiring if you’re going at it for a while. It is like being on a wrestling mat in a way but it’s much more comfortable. I was skeptical at first and thought I wouldn’t like it. My wife was pregnant when we got it and was very uncomfortable sleeping at night so I let her drive the mattress selection. It took me a few nights to get used to it and I’m absolutely sold on it now. Any other mattress we’ve been on since just leaves a lot to be desired when having sex and we wish we were on our mattress at home.

I tried one in the store with my wife and we also determined it was going to be terrible for sex. The Beautyrest Silver BRS900 in extra firm we got has been the absolute best bed for sex I’ve ever been on.

Absolutely this. An induction range was a game changer in terms of cooking and has paid for itself many times over. I lucked out and found a high end used one for $400 many years ago. When camping I use a portable one, and while not as good as a full range, it is still much better than any propane cooktop I’ve used.

btop shows it and a ton of other info too.

They were too busy talking about Podesta the molesta.

That movie was great. I love Marilyn Manson’s Tainted Love music video he made with the cast of that movie.

I quit drinking alcohol a few years ago except for one certain Mexican restaurant because their margaritas are so good with the food.

My favorite Linus moment ever.

Or sometimes they remove a 25% off coupon that usually shows all the time and for the “sale” they just reduce the price of the item to that same amount without and then remove the coupon from the page. It will then look like it has gone on sale from camelcamelcamel because it wasn’t accounting for the price after the coupon it was only showing the item price.
