Dunno about that, the quality of the newer stuff is increasing very fast. This is just a free one and it provides a perfectly serviceable "narrator voice" with natural inflections. If there aren't now, I'm sure there soon will be products where you can direct the voices as to tone and delivery...

Played enough of this to be impressed. Some cool ideas and very well-produced aesthetic. Going to save it for release.

Dropped on his head during a throw with his opponent landing in him is about the only way to generate that much force. Suplex gone wrong, etc.

It's a separate test, usually.

Steroids are fucking awesome. About a decade ago I had a weird inner ear inflammation that was in danger of pinching off my cochlear nerve and leaving me deaf in that ear. Doc put me on a heavy course of prednisone and it was AMAZING. Every ache and pain I'd accumulated over my life just...

If the alternatives are 5.25% cash or 24% in the S&P (or even the 8% historical returns), then that math should be pretty easy. Especially if that doesn't take into account that the 401k contributions are pre-tax. IMO always prioritize maxing tax-advantaged savings. In the past when my income...

I think this is a fair compromise, at least as far as the faction splitting. I always play ssf and have no interest in spending my gaming time trading. If other people enjoy that, more power to them but I get why the drop rates would need to be differentiated in the interest of providing a...

“Our perspective is that these products do not align with our offer focused on asset classes such as equities, bonds, and cash, which Vanguard views as the building blocks of a well-balanced, long-term investment portfolio”...

We had one of those. My dog just learned to solve the maze with her tongue and after a couple weeks it wasn't any slower.

Yeah, if your dog is getting abdominal surgery for some other reason they can staple the connective tissue to the chest wall, and that helps. We also used elevated dishes to discourage the excess swallowing of air. Retrievers are particularly at risk for this because they tend to eat like...

I think you are the boiled frog. If it's remotely as common as you suggest, what you're describing is not normal (outside of restaurants/theater/hospitality).

A hilarious mix of new and old. Edit: Creator disabled external playback. Static humbnail.

The guilt fucking sucks. I can't help but feel responsible for my first dog dying. It was on the day of my son's sixth birthday party. She had an awesome afternoon rampaging around the back yard playing with everyone and eating all kinds of BBQ that people weren't supposed to feed her. Around 3...

"Disturbance in the insulation" Translation: Shit be broken

Easier said than done. You could outright give them the designs and tooling and they wouldn't have the human capital and institutional experience to pull off a launch.

Is Google changing tactics? In the last few weeks I've noticed YouTube is absolutely dogshit slow and unresponsive. Like it takes 4-6 seconds for the video UI to appear when I mouse over, then another 4-6 for the curor to switch from the desktop arrow to the pointer finger when I track over the...

Plex won't do it alone, but there are several choices for usenet clients and indexers that work together via API and work seamlessly with Plex once set up. I use NZBGet and Sonarr together with Plex on my NAS.

A cousin-in-law has internal gutters in his 1920's house. They drop from the roof gullies inside the walls and drain out of the foundation just above ground. It's a fucking maintenance nightmare.

Artistic styles are not copyrightable. An artist can't and shouldn't be able to own a style.

I don't owe them. I have Schedule C income and declare that it's irregular (which it is), and that raises the threshold quite substantially.

I always underwithhold and end up owing a few thousand. I don't need to give interest free loans to the IRS, and neither do I need them to execute my cash flow management. Same applies to health insurance with low deductible but high premiums.

Always push taxes into the future when possible. The difference between 12/31 and 1/1 is 12 months of productivity of your tax burden.

I just meant that AI can already analyze X-rays and MRIs better than human specialists and no one much blinked. IMO this uproar is more about how 100 years of scifi primed us to expect AI to be calculating and logical, when that's actually what this seems to be worst at. Art is "human" and...

Yeah, I don't see hordes lining up to protect radiologists and paralegals. This is just collective surprise that automation came for the "creative" stuff first.\ I'll fight to the death on that one. Fuck commuting.

Much like people asking for well done steaks, your friends need training on the propriety of painting nice wood. Oak and maple are plenty light if left at their natural color and not stained to a deep mahogany/walnut.

No, it's just training us to tune you out. This new wannabe alt-right version of you isn't as entertaining as when you were roleplaying the last liberal standing on the board.

Jesus. You're not going to score more points by getting more and more histrionic about this.

Someone finally won Tetris. Edit: Already posted in Gaming discussion thread, didn't see it.

We're talking about different things here. I'm not saying that dropping $5M on your estranged grandkids when they turn 21 is a good idea. As Warren Buffet says, you set them up enough to do anything, but not so much that they can do nothing. One obvious example is education. Starting adult life...

... but I also get the sum total of human knowledge and computation at my fingertips with instant global communication. I'm pretty sure that's a positive tradeoff vs saving 30 seconds looking it up on the off chance I ever need a mathematical proof of something.

My dad got a couple barn cats and they made a huge difference with the rodents. Not economical, because one also got into a fight with a coyote or something and needed vet services.

I legit didn't know that they were two people until a couple weeks ago.

YMMV in your area, but respectable used bandsaws are pretty cheap. You can probably get a good condition 14'' Delta for under $300. Rout out small recesses in the aprons so the top sits flush.

Played the demo, so far a fun dungeon crawler roguelike. On my radar.

Bandsaw is the right power tool for deep through cuts. If you don't have one but do have a table saw, it's very common to take a max depth partial cut on the table saw, finish the rest with a hand saw in the same kerf, and clean up the edge with a plane/chisel/sander/flush trim bit. Practice on...

That's just a super long bit for the setup you have, plus it's thin. I'm kinda surprised it works at all and isn't just a shrapnel machine. Doesn't look like the right (or safe) tool for the job. What cut are you making there? Are you eventually going through the material? If so, just use a...

It's not compression in the sense that we typically use the term in computing. The neural net is tuned to fundamental relationships in latent space between the training set features. Yes, with the right prompts it can reproduce specific items of the training set (with loss, but close). But it's...

You're completely misconstruing the legal side of the argument. Copyright law is about ideas and works. Compressing data (which isn't really what's happening in GPTs, it's more nuanced than that) is not a work and does not infringe. Only the works produced by the model could be infringing. Some...
