I’m on a really low dosage of spiro (25mg/day), so that might be why I haven’t felt it as badly.

But yeah, that’s basically what I did. My doctor is actually pretty okay (didn’t mind that I didn’t have the psychiatric diagnosis that you’re “supposed” to have (not a legal requirement)), but she definitely did underdose me, and I am awful at making appointments, so I’ve just increased my own dosage of E in line with what’s actually a reasonable amount.

Is spiro really that bad?

I get that it’s the least effective among the choices but it also has the fewest side-effects, from my understanding…

Something to bring up w/ my doctor, I guess… I’ve been trying to reach them for a dosage increase anyway

Oh, I can confirm this! I went from skipping lunch almost every day to essentially never completely full. And if I skip a meal I become basically useless. It’s great!

Also congrats on already feeling weight after 23 days! My own started aching pretty much immediately (hurt for a few days), but it’s gotten more annoying recently and I can actually feel/see 'em now (I hit 100 days exactly today actually!)

How do you feel? Did you already get the skin smoothing? That was the biggest QoL change for me

Every time I read it I think “well, I remember it, it’s not going to be as funny”

And every time the steady rising tempo with no breaks just. Completely kills me halfway through

Personally? Vibes. Specifically, it feels very… uniform. Like, a human artist good enough to draw like that would be better at composition, I think?

More practically, even the newer ones struggle with specific shapes; look at the arch, no human would draw that weird hybrid of an arch and a… semi-donut?

Older models struggle with lining stuff up and keeping things straight over long distances. The latest ones struggle with constant curvatures.

It’s (genuinely) interesting that big-time AI enthusiasts always assume that if you dislike AI, it’s because you don’t know how to use it (and not because they have different priorities or have conceptual issues with it or such). It was the same thing with crypto and NFTs.

I know a good amount of very skilled developers who tried AI several times in different contexts, and always found the tradeoffs much too bad to be worth it (in terms of accuracy, precision, cost, speed, whatever), and yet they still get “oh you just haven’t tried my favorite AI tool”.

Time yes, but not minutes.

I wasn’t around when it happened, what did he do?

It’s to get around a bug on some platforms where the Referer header isn’t set properly. Basically when you click the link in the app (maybe other platforms too idk), it can’t set the Referer, so website statistics can’t know what came from bsky. This was in their changelog. It used to already work correctly on desktop, though.

Not related to the specific post but is it me or does american media treat literally everything as “Breaking News”

Like nothing about this is urgent you can wait until the evening news to talk about it. You’ll even have more information by then!

Lol, neat. Should have said “has less than 2 solutions” or smth ig.

It’s anarchy for the hierarchies, not for the components of the hierarchies

Fair enough! The disadvantage is that, as opposed to Dropbox and similar, I have go into a file at the root of the synced folder, rather than keeping that config near to where itcs relevant.

Thanks for the names!

That’s… a very good idea. I should do that anyway.

Forgejo for projects and syncthing for data is probably perfect, thank you!

I tried with both, but I didn’t figure out how if such an option exists. I did manage to do the opposite (keeping files uploaded but not having them locally), both with and without VFS (with VFS it’s in a context menu in nautilus, without it’s in the desktop app).

it does! I use it to sync my music, but I feel like it’s not the right tool for the job here.

I don’t want to “have the folders connected”, I want to have the ability to sync files easily, while excluding specific folders and files.

I have. It hasn’t worked very well for me, the docs weren’t great (though I’m looking at them now and they do seem better?) and it broke in strange ways.

I like this image :)

(What follows is a rambly half-vent tirade about my own gender)

For me a lot of my thinking ends up in “yeah I’m definitely a girl uggh that’s gonna be so annoying”. It’s not a choice and it’s a thing that requires immense amounts of effort… but everyone says it’s worth it, so I gotta drag myself along to avoid regretting it later (and it has been worth it, too). Meanwhile I’d already internalized that gender is bullshit, so I was theoretically fine with being a guy but apparently not in practice. Everything would be easier if I were a guy (or more generally cis, but it’s p hard to be a cis girl for me by now lol), but I’m not and so… incredible amounts of time energy and money it is!

Anyway the point is: I like this image, because it just… cuts through all of that. No qualifications on it, just. Yay!

So… databases? Especially in data centers? Still a nice boost in that case

SCP Secret Lab? The dogs being that SCP that can mimic voices.

Or maybe lethal company idk
