I run a personal dnsmasq just for dns resolving/routing. It integrates well with Networkmanager. Easy to work with and very reliable to have the DNS resolution and routing be handled by dnsmasq. Single command to reload NetworkManager which also reloads the integrated dnsmasq. I like it and it offers a lot of control for me. I hate having to use the hosts file for when I am connecting to labs via VPN with their own network. dnsmasq is way better at handling subdomains than the hosts file and it feels way more reliable than just hoping the minimal DNS routing system works properly.

there is one separating detail that is not shared between most of us. It really depends on how long that tenant lives there. if they are living there for a long period of time and like the place, then yes you are a leech, but a good one since they enjoy living there enough to stay. On the other hand, if you switch tenants often because of high rent costs or bad housing(maintenance included), then you are just simply a leech and not a good one because you are not even providing anything, you instead are holding the property that is simply rotting away with no way for the family holding it to be able to make changes or work towards making it better as they don’t own it. If they leave for other reasons outside of your control, then you are not a leech and provided good housing for someone.

Since this isn’t usually known by most and takes time to build that moral ideal, it is usually up to you to consider how to act and there is not really an incentive or demand for you to act morally good. Your current living arrangements, life choices and poor job market is not applicable here, you held a home and still operate on living on someone’s paycheck. I hope the best for you and anyone who might be put in a bad spot, I know I am in my own bad spot. Would I try to hold myself to a moral high ground? maybe, though pain is short and I will likely still act not morally good at times, though I am not going to consider myself otherwise but a leech if I do. I would rather make sure I can get new tenants by making sure I get the current one is able to get one that is better or their own property, and help someone new with housing. That is what I think a good landlord could do but if the family likes the house then I can help them afford to buy it off me. See it is just business.

That is only for leeching aspects. I bet there are more complex thinking involved but this is what I think who a financial/real state leech is.

There are way dirtier things being done in a bedroom or playing outside sports. Why does it matter if you are clean? Why is a woman asking that silly question like as if we don’t kiss the mouth of someone who just gargle them balls

Ok 👍

And yet I still believe there were kids who had good tasting vegetables. I already agreed that some didn’t but the ones who did? It was still common for kids to not step up and learn. Oh well, how about I just accept whatever you say but not actually believe your narrow view of life?

Fr I don’t think you want to think about it much past the surface level. I agree to some points but not the myth that kids all kids can’t taste good vegetables at all. Conversation ran it’s course, I don’t mind. It is what it is. I believe differently.

I guess, but really I had some bad habits and didn’t know how to make anything more than simple dishes like spaghetti and meatballs. Salads seemed like way too much effort until you get the proper technique to chop them up. I understand what you mean but I still wish I had learned it as a kid. The muscle memory/technique to hone in on would have been nice before I became an adult and had to rely on eating out or eating random stuff at home because I also never learned to plan out meals properly. I guess there is more to it than cooking is what I am saying.

idk, am I privileged to have a family who cared enough to go to eat out once in while like once a month ?

I fail to see how you can think I am trying to relate to someone who never had decent vegetables. It’s not like it is impossible for many of us to eat decent vegetables at one point. I clearly am not trying to be relating to everyone’s background. You are simply nitpicking and didn’t bother reading or understanding my comment.

Many LLM operations rely on fast memory and gpus seem to have that. Even though their memory is soldered and vbios is practically a black box that is tightly controlled. Nothing on a GPU is modular or repairable without soldering skills(and tools).

This is so true. I find there are plenty of ways to enjoy vegetables on the cheap or lower the effects of rot on foods. I feel like people don’t realize that 2000s is the year that current adults as kids grew up in. It is so much better back than after 2008 and 2020(current generation) are having to deal with but still it was a solved problem.

Yet people don’t really see what was talking about. I wasn’t alluding to the vegetables, but rather how kids are not willing enough to learn to cook or take initiative when they don’t enjoy something.

It isn’t easy to cook but I still helped my little brother. I wish when I was a kid, I learned to cook. My mom made the best foods though, and I lived pretty much happy with vegetables. I love salads. It is sad how many are not liking salads or vegetables as much.

I don’t know where this came from. I am talking about how as kids we grow up too shy to pickup cooking as a skill, even though we find it not taste right for us. It is fine to accept the food cause hard work and all that about love, but if you feel like it’s not good enough, we don’t seem to try. But you know I don’t deny it’s like that, yet people can still talk to their parents as kids, spice exists and canned veggies or frozen ones can taste decent. All basic truths.

I helped my little brother cook, he started pretty terribly and to be encouraging everything was, well, not gonna be effective for him to learn. I always made it clear I admired his work but clearly put how cooking skill takes patience and dedication to do. He learned how hard it was for me to cook. I wish I learned to cook when I was a kid.

Oh well people here got whooshed on the real story I laid out.

I kept it short cause I didn’t think there much else to talk about. I expressed my opinion, big no-no on the internet but whatever

What’s even more silly about this is that you never bothered to cook it yourself to experience better cooked food and the reason is? Idk for me it was because I am lame and too shy to ask to change the established way of life. On the other hand I have adjusted to eat food of all sorts even though it is displeasing. Except foods that have capsaicin or or peppers, I’m allergic to them.

I think the biggest limiting factor for your mini PC will always be the VRAM and any workload that enjoys that fast RAM speed. Really, I think this mini PC from framework is only sensible for certain workloads. It was poised as a mobile chip and certainly is majorly power efficient. On the other hand I don’t think it is for large scaling but more for testing at home or working at home on the cheap. It isn’t something I expected from framework though as I expected them to maintain modularity and the only modularity here is the little USB cards and the 3D printed front panel designs lol

Edit
Personally I am in that niche market of high RAM speed. Also, access to high VRAM for occasional LLM testing. Though it is an AMD and I don’t know if am comfortable switching from Nvidia for that workload just yet. Renting a GPU is just barely cheap enough.

I haven’t played the game but I seen some gameplay and I can see that appeal of finding a synergy or pattern of execution that you can play for big rolls but aside from that, it is quick, flashy and seemingly has enough variety to complement the art style

Huh I guess some people consider kissing as more intimate than just getting their rocks off

I know right, they are cheaping out because why bother subsidizing new bikes when trading in an old bike? Just sell a cheap shittier e bike. If only the citizens were able to pay the government some cash to help make their community more safe and better than before. /s

It felt better knowing you can be without the internet, now we all stay connected for better or for worse.

I deleted my other comment because dogs jumped on me and somehow in the mix up, I pressed the post button, so I removed the partially malformed comment.

On the first topic, your reasoning to differentiate what the goals of competitive games and “chasing higher something” is just not well put into words here. From what I am reading, you tried to make them look different on the higher level view but failed to showcase that, which for both sides you claim one is competitive and the other side is not competitive. However, most definitions for being competitive is to chase ever higher “somethings” for which is mostly points but in other aspects can be money. Hence your reasoning has basically equated them even more deeply. So your point to make them different needs to be redone with that can make your point more clear and is reasonably opposites.

Moving on, I didn’t agree completely that playing with cash is strictly adult. More or less, anything that requires express consent, such as decisions that involve risk of self hurting activities (playing with cash is one of these activities because of our dependency on money), and other adult topics that are not relevant here. There are things that kids can buy to play games for or gain cosmetics for RP or whatever, however I understand the problem will be account selling shenanigans, but that at least raises the bar on barrier of entry too, and most not doing it. Kids need to learn to be less impulsive and I think that is more of what is the root of the problem in this case. We need regulations that would punish companies that try to exploit this.

Yeah, gateway drugs… Look, I know that actual hard to quit drugs are not close to the same as these psychological only addictive activities. Physical withdrawal from those drugs are miles more deadly and impactful on someone’s body and brain. I do think people can take some addictions too far but those cases are more likely to be popular in the news than the more tame stories that highlight what the majority will experience. I am still adamant that balatro is no where close to this topic. It is not able to transition you to something else and this is more on an individual basis and not really generalizable. If someone is being socially pressured by friends or others to do it then balatro will better prepare someone to not make bigger mistakes, so in reality it has a positive than a negative.

This is why I have a hard time reasoning with you on this. I will like to move on, so I will end it here. I feel like we have made our points and we will decide for our own. When it comes down to it, I will more than likely vote for any regulation to pass on restricting gambling and other forms of negative addictions, while weighing in any freedoms that may be reduced or affected. We will see, happy holidays.
