Seems to work really well. I can do obscure searches like Outer Wilds and it will pull up pictures I took from my phone of random gameplay moments, so it's not doing any filename or metadata cheating there.

Nothing more nerve racking than biking up to an intersection and the driver's eyeballs are perfectly hidden behind the windshield pillar. I'm not moving until I know you see me.

Which model would you recommend? I just switched from ViT-B/32 to ViT-SO400M-16-SigLIP2-384__webli since it seemed to be the most popular.

Yeah I refuse to believe this is an ADHD thing

We need better infill policies.

My fear is that we're going to have huge amounts of federal funding coming in to municipalities to build massive swaths of suburban sprawl in the name of additional housing, putting more fuel on the fire that is car dependence.

Even new developments that have "mixed-use" multifamily are depressing to be in when they're completely isolated from the rest of the city and you can only go in or out with a car.

Older showers don't have a pressure balancing valve which adjusts either the hot or cold flow to equalize a loss in pressure on the opposite side.

Without this, flushing a toilet robs the shower of cold water and so the user is scalded, or running a washing machine or dishwasher does the same with the hot supply.

I'm coming up on 10000 for linux mint that I started nearly 300 days ago. 2.7GiB download, 24.8TiB upload.

My next highest is GIMP 3.0 at a little over 400.

It's a time honoured thing from back in the day when you took your camera with you on holiday, your roll of film had 36 exposures that you had to ration and think carefully about where and when to use them.

So when you got back and had your photos developed and printed, you had 36 photos to share with people.

Now you can take thousands of pictures per day with your phone and there's no life to any of them as you force people to swipe through them.

The rationale in the OP is that with archinstall, an inexperienced user will have no idea where to even begin diagnosing any issues post install. Whereas installing manually is sort of a barrier to entry that ensures you know what you're doing.

When Below Zero came out it was clear that they had no idea what made Subnautica special, something that a sequel had no hope of replicating. Fear of the unknown and the drive to explore deeper. Once you've completed Subnautica you are a god of the sea, and that knowledge and experience cannot be lost.

Mobius Digital was able to make a successful DLC for Outer Wilds because they understood what made their game work, which is the player's own curiosity.

The fun of birding isn't necessarily the chase. Searching for a single bird species for years with no luck can be draining.

With eBird this is easier than ever. One centralized and publicly available database of bird sightings means you can find out exactly where and when a species was last spotted.

I may have been a bit bold trying to jump straight in to nighttime photography on my very first roll of film but I think I was able to get away with it. This was shot at EV+1 which I think held the shutter open longer than I expected, causing some shake.

Tire bead (lemmy.ca)
submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by apprehensively_human@lemmy.ca to c/bikewrench@lemmy.world
 

This is a Schwalbe studded winter tire I bought a few months ago, and I'm not sure what exactly I did to get it like this but for some reason the bead seems to be warped or stretched. It doesn't want to fit my rims. There's a small section of the tire that's popped out of the rim, and when I try to lever it back into place the bead pulls out further down.

I've tried this tire on two different rims with the same results, and to make doubly sure it isn't the rims I put on one of my old Schwalbe Marathon tires which fit perfectly. Both tires are 40-635 700b.

Is this repairable? I don't have much experience dealing with tires but I find it unusual that this tire seemed to be fine until now when I changed out the wheel.

 

iam8bit is coming out with a new Collector's Edition as well as the Echoes of the Eye soundtrack on vinyl. Pre-orders start on February 29th.

 

I counted conservatively just shy of 50 of these little guys on an hour long walk.

 

When my stubble grows in, I just have to play with it. When I shave it off, I just have to feel how smooth it is.

It's maddening and I recognize that people must think I look ridiculous with my hand always stroking my chin.

 

When getting an android system notification for a new comment reply, tapping the notification slide takes me to the Mentions tab of the inbox instead of to the Replies tab.

Not sure if this is intended behaviour but seems like a bug.

Thanks for the hard work!
