A song of fragmentation warheads and interceptors

Yeah I also laughed out loud when I first read that.

I mean he’s weirdly honest about that sort of thing sometimes:

Williams and Rai joined the president, 80, where Trump described the teen lifeguard as “a real hero.”

“I don’t know if I’d do it,” the president said. “I wouldn’t, probably. You’re lucky I wasn’t on the service that day.”

Yeah true—I liked his breakdown of slower thinker, then faster do-er model setup. I have 3.6 35b on LM studio, but need to look at his optimizations because even with 4090/64gb ram it was pretty slow. Will be a good project ;)

Ah wicked yeah sounded like he would have some instructions. Looking forward to trying it—I’ve tried a bunch of different local models with webui and lately Hermes agent, but have generally beefed up sorta disappointed—either the model is dumb and runs fast, or is somewhat smart but runs so slowly that it’s impossible to work with meaningfully. 24+ but capable sounds like a pretty sweet spot to actually do something with it.

This is an impressive implementation—the key system ram thresholds he identifies are 20ish for good answering, and 40ish for prompt reading. So having 40+ ram might be a stretch for most peoples home systems, but the performance seems pretty good overall regardless.

Gonna have to try and set this up, but expect downloading it to take forever… plus he’s got some weird custom cache stuff going on.

Yep

This is awesome

It’s crimson deserts all the way down

Ahhh took me a sec but I think I know now. Also a synonym for a ghost.

It’s crazy because I know what they are, and my addled brain still had to do a couple takes. It sounds soooo much like an awful slur.

Is she not, like the rest of the country, essentially just a hostage? I mean it looks like she’s being too compliant perhaps, but what choice does she have at the moment? My guess is she understands the precarious of their position, and is choosing to wait and see if they can get anything beneficial from the US by acting compliant.

I feel bad for Venezuela, but like it was never in a position to defend itself the way Iran has, its options were always dicey and limited.

If they could get the US to have to invade them with troops they might be able to do some damage, but we know that’s not how it would go—would be bombing and targeted strikes to kill leadership who aren’t onside with the US game plan.

Best case for them is to sorta wait this out; US is crazy over extended and Trump admin has done tons of illegal bullshit, so possibly they could hope for a reversal if the political regime in the US changes (wouldn’t hold my breath on that, but probably preferable to see before deciding to get bombed into the Stone Age).

US would not have the same limitations attacking them that they do with Iran, they could use their allegedly “limitless”dumb bombs and cause a lot of devastation if it went that way.

lol “influenced the routes they could take” that’s a hell if a sentence. Did they perform water magic and change the currents such that the Israeli ships were diverted off course? Did they contract a group of sirens from the Hellespont to lure them off course?

Comm accurate content

There are definitely people printing and painting the minis out there, so probably some folks playing here and there.

I think there’s some arma 3 mods as well that I’ve always intended to check out but just haven’t gotten around to.

It looks so bad in motion.

Oooh neat, I just happen to have a bunch of aquafaba in my fridge at the moment. When I’ve made regular mayo in the past, I used my food processor, and like the other post is sorta mentioning, I would add the oil slowly from the top while it processed, which lead to pretty good emulsion.

Pumped to try this out.

Yes you’re technically correct. But also, they carry parasites that make humans behave differently towards them, are we sure we bred them? Maybe they bred us.

Mmm I don’t hate cats, have had them all my life. But also they are cute furry autistic predators/psychopaths that don’t really care that much whether I approve of them or not. They evolved their yowl to include sounds like a human baby to better manipulate subconscious human behavior and they have parasites in their crap that makes infected humans want to take care of them… Whereas my dog checks up on me all day and seems to care very much what I think of her, which I find endearing. Granted dogs also have weird evolved stuff like “facial expressions” that they use to manipulate humans.

But kitties win hands down for cute companions that are mostly easy to care for, no question.

Hey now, where does it say it’s illegal to own and transport a guillotine? It’s a historical artifact!
