Narrator: the infrastructure was not there

Voted liberal, ndp, and green my whole life btw, and spent a decade as a public servant; im not a hate filled person who shits on immigrants, I just want responsible immigration policy, and McKinsey Consulting is evil.

Both Jason Kenney and Andrew Scheer, the two prior Conserrvative leaders, also completely blew their chances of winning by relying on the rightwing outrage pipeline and by being completely unlikable as a human beings.

Side story, I worked in government and received an MP complaint against me by a client, and the MP was Jason Kenney. I had to talk to him a bit everyday for a week or so, and he came off as incredibly stupid. Blew my mind a year later when he was on a ballot lol.

When’s the last time you tried? I had a hell of a time dual booting in ~2016, but as of the last five years or so I’ve set up half a dozen dual boots without issue, and Windows (LTSC) hasn’t messed up any of the partitions.

What is this disclaimer warning about? I have used LTSC exclusively as a desktop OS since 2019 and everything works. I have not had an instance of something not working that would have otherwise worked on Enterprise or Home, etc. I game in 4k, edit videos, run a jellyfin server, mine monero. I’m confused about what you mean

For $7.50 I’d unironically use a walking buddy at least once

I’m rocking a kei truck for landscaping and home reno projects, and it still uses more gas than I’m happy with. I’d love for someone to make an electric truck that isn’t a massive behemoth intended to prove something about my masculinity. Just give me a clean energy box bed to haul my lumber and dirt.

Yeah mine was called the [City Name] Tool Library, and it was a non-profit that was independent of our local library. I imagine that they receive donated tools from contractors and companies around the city.

As an example, I googled a random city name (Calgary) and found one for them as well: https://calgarytoollibrary.org/

There are likely tons of similar organizations throughout Canada (and probably your country as well!)

Have you looked at local LLMs? You can download and run them off your own machine - no connecting to an external server. They aren’t any more power intensive than a lot of video games. I downloaded a DeepSeek model and I use ComfyUI to operate it locally

On a whim I googled my city’s library and “tools” and I found a non-profit society that specializes in lending of hand and power tools! This is incredible and I wouldn’t have known about it without this prompt: thank you!

Outside of steam will be a case by case basis. I wouldn’t expect a lot of luck, and it may require that you use a compatibility layer like Wine.

I’m not sure what the google maps export looks like, but no matter how it’s formatted I’m sure that a simple Python script will be able to transfer the map markers over to openmaps. I’ll look into making this if it doesn’t already exist on GitHub. I’d like to transfer my stuff over too.

LineageOS works as well and you can get it running on more phones than Graphene; however, GrapheneOS is superior in terms of security

I genuinely find LLMs to be helpful with a wide variety of tasks. I have never once found an NFT to be useful.

Here’s a random little example: I took a photo of my bookcase, with about 200 books on it, and had my LLM make a spreadsheet of all the books with their title, author, date of publication, cover art image, and estimated price. I then used this spreadsheet to mass upload them to Facebook Marketplace in bulk. In about 20 minutes I had over 200 facebook ads posted for every one of my books, which resulted in getting far more money than if I made one ad to sell all the books in bulk; I only had to do a quick review of the spreadsheet to fix any glaring issues. I also had it use some marketing psychology to write attractive descriptions for the ads.

What was the game plan here? Wisconsin produces a lot of cheese, so I’ll make myself more relatable to the Wisconsin common man by wearing a fucking cheese hat?

This thing is so early 2000s; I kinda love it for that

Greenland, Ukraine, Canada: all of Trump’s actions make sense if you consider that he wants to secure rare earth minerals for… someone

The thing that I appreciated most about Lemmy and my transition from Reddit is how cordial everyone has been. Even if a comment is taken out of context, people tend not to jump down each others throat and assume the worst, or make bad faith arguments full of fallacies. I’ve had legitimate back and forths with people, something that basically never happens on Reddit.
