Just following up, I bought some white clover and it has really taken off! This fall I'm going to get a huge bag and overseed my entire lawn.

88 is Nazi code for HH (Heil Hitler). H is the 8th letter in the alphabet.

Thanks, I just placed my order!

Can't you just distill it from ketchup potato chips?

Anyone running a newer MacBook Pro can install Ollama and run it with just a few commands:

brew install ollama

ollama run deepseek-r1:14b

Then you can use it at the terminal, but it also has API access, so with a couple more commands you can put a web front end on it, or with a bit more effort you can add it to a new or existing app/service/system.

Unfortunately I think most businesses will still prefer that their AI solution is hosted by a company like OpenAI rather than maintaining their own. There's still going to be a need for these large data centers, but I do hope most people realize that hosting your own LLM isn't that difficult, and it doesn't cost you your privacy.

They just asked a few people if they thought it was written by an LLM. /s

I mean, you can tell when something is written from ChatGPT, especially if the person isn't using it for editing, but is just asking it to write a complaint or request. It is likely they are only counting the most obvious, so the actual count is higher.

Wait, so mandating return to office in the middle of flu season has resulted in more people getting sick? Who could have seen that coming?

You're exactly right. A one day boycott doesn't work. For it to work your need to have a day when you don't consume anything. But even then, that isn't feasible.

Cancel your subscriptions, and don't start them up again.

Divest your 401k from US money markets.

Get involved in your local government and start focusing on ways that your community can provide local services.

If you know where a morally corrupt CEO is going to be staying, let your local Luigi know.

These aren't easy things, but they can be effective.

Yes, that's how it works when one thing is more expensive than another thing. But people do save up money through one part of their life to spend during another part of their life. And they aren't the only people who used to think that Tesla's were cool tech cars.

Think of it as a methadone clinic for doomscrollers.

Is facial hair even cool any more?
