we did it guys, the old models are so trash, here on the new TrustMeBroBenchmarks the model scores higher than ever before. Man fable 5.0 sucked so much, such a shit model, fable 5.1 tho, that's groundbreaking. We've gone up by 46.9% on every percentage in every bench, let's goooooooo fellas, now plz gib money because we're still not profitable. #fuckAnthropic

Living in southern Italy in summer is like living in a sauna 24/7 🥵... With the only thing that can give you even a modicum of cooling being fans... And you're gonna wake up before 6am because it's too hot to sleep after that GM I guess

I love LLMs for handling tedious tasks I really don’t want to deal with myself. I have a TV that I use purely as a dumb HDMI display. I don’t need the "smart"-TV garbage, or any of the other junk. Every extra millisecond it takes to get to an HDMI input is wasted. So I enabled ADB, pointed Kimi K3 at it, and told it to strip out everything unnecessary. It started by reporting that all the bloat packages were already disabled.... Which of course they are, I did that years ago... but I told it to keep working on it. First, it built a minimal launcher that automatically switches to HDMI 3 on boot. That alone was exactly what I wanted: turn the TV on, and it goes straight to the input. There was still the delay from the TCL logo and the Google TV startup sequence, though, so I asked it to optimize further. It replaced a few components I didn’t need but that the TV apparently expects, then AOT-compiled the APKs to speed up boot even more (btw, I didn't know this is possible, but it's apparently `adb shell cmd package compile -m speed -f <package>` for each package then `adb shell cmd package bg-dexopt-job`). it cut cold-boot time to HDMI from roughly a minute to about 15 seconds, and standby resume from around 15 seconds to 2 seconds!!! I could have done all of this myself, of course, but it's a hassle and one of those things I always wanted to avoid because whatever... but having a clanker I can ask is great I could also get it even faster... but i'd need to root my tv, and it's a pain in the ass on this tv (and the clanker can't handle it itself because it requires me to take apart the board)... so I told it not to

May you live in interesting times. May you find what you're looking for. GM

I'm so tired of those people trying to control what people can and cannot do, and posing it like high moral virtue

a hosting provider just took down my VMs because they don't like what I do with them (btw, nostr relay + blossom server -.-) ffs...

I followed through on this, except not duckstation (because they don't want forks, so whatever), but pcsx-nostr

Goood Morning Nostr!

heads up to whoever runs nostr.watch: your javascript is compromised by an attacker. I don't have the sourcemap so it's hard to say exactly what node module is the compromised one, but your website sends data, and redirects users to: xyz[dot]ngrok[dot]pro. this is a phishing #devstr

Who was experimenting with CI on nostr? I forgot #devstr
