@thendrix @Christmas_Man If it was a pan I'd recommend just using it for 22lr. Good cast iron pans don't need much, hot water brush and oil em after use. Nothing like finding a cast iron pan in a dishwasher. It's time for a divorce.
@thendrix They should just learn to work together. I don't see how using not drug money to buy weapons and send them abroad is even a crime.
Honestly if we weren't using drug money to buy Chinese hardware, that was a very poor choice and we should have been doing it decades ago. It's mutually beneficial and allegedly very lucrative.

Story finally posted on ZH.
The 2012 incident refers to when dozens of US spies were reportedly caught red-handed in China. Very likely this major bust-up of an alleged CIA network was a key trigger for President Xi Jinping’s anticorruption drive, given that government corruption left Beijing exposed to vulnerabilities by Western spy agencies. Dozens of CIA assets were reportedly imprisoned between 2010 and 2012, and others reportedly executed. In 2018, a Foreign Policy report estimated that the number caught consisted of 30 CIA assess, and described further the spy ring was discovered largely due to a botched communication system.
@thendrix Sometimes the shakes from the holidays are bad but I suppose it's healthy to take a break to get ready for the New Year. After Christmas I had a strong craving for Everclear. They keep it hidden in the back of the store like people should be ashamed to buy it.
@thor Radio One Dance. It's the only relevant station in the UK. In the US we have our own England and it's called Detroit.

Nostr is interesting but there is less hassle with Mastodon, which is also kind of anarchist and contrarian. It's always a bit funny when people who are into very niche things disagree about which niche is the right one and get into arguments.
In summary: You're all nerds.
@thor Depressed nerds. I compiled Gentoo and lost the motivation to make an account along the way. It's been like that for about 4 different times. It always could be worse and be Arch Linux.

@tasket @caligari @lupyuen It's not difficult to follow a signal. Ransomware attacks aren't going to be far behind as some of those systems use multiple wireless sensors.
They are difficult to open without using a Dremel. I've cut myself a few times with Xacto blades trying to get through that thick sonic welded plastic shell. At least the app wasn't too difficult to peek at. White listing devices and some other things that might possibly be going on.
There has to be a way to get in without bleeding everywhere.

Tried the "Dolphin 2.5 Mixtral 8X7B" LLM. It's an uncensored model, so it can tell you how to cook meth or make a nuclear bomb. But I don't have enough knowledge to let it tell me how to do it precisely.
Anyway, I noticed the LLM have different performance on different languages. Multi lang support is fairly normal for LLM nowadays, but English is significantly better than expensive languages like Chinese and Japanese. Not only on speed (one token can be one English word, or one Chinese character), but also the result. The model is fairly shy and doesn't spill out a lot in Chinese. If you force it to generate more details, it's just repeat the same thing. However in English, it gives a more detailed answer by default.
