I'm currently using whey powder for protein. I can see that. Add some sugars and Vanilla flavour. Increase my protein. I'm sold

I am traveling Australia in a caravan, so no luxury of that much power draw.

So I use a small, battery powered fan. It cranks. Super fast. And dries stuff quickly.

I like it has no heat, so warping is reduced. I've grown to love it.

Not all. Manufacturers supply light fast ratings on their pigments. So watercolour artists are keenly aware of, and look for this.

Commonly, by memory, yellows are not so light fast. And others as well.

If for example, you look up a Schminke (brand) of watercolours, you'll see their ratings.

There are galleries, many of them, that hide their watercolours away in the dark of storage. Which is a cultural crime. As long as the artist used professional grade paint, that is light fast.

This is a whole, contentious topic. And part of why you'll rarely see the masters of watercolour in a gallery.

Driving up the road, about 2400km, over a couple of days, to say gday to my old mum. Bless her. She'll have some lovely baked goods for me on my arrival.

Oh, hell no. We are absolutely tiny.

It's very much a trust-based situation as we all work together and in a small team.

I would actually love to know how to handle remote shutdown of PCs and lock out and things like that, for as we do grow, we are getting busier, and starting to expand.

Surely though if it is fully GPL, then new assets can be created by the community and the originals are no longer required?

They seem happy to farm themselves in any place that I don't want them to be.

I think the proliferation of them is part of the point.

They are very eager little creatures to reproduce in large numbers.

I have done quite a bit of traditional photography back in the day.

This one is one of those move with the car and click and click and click and you get a nice blurred background if your settings are correct.

Back then though, film was super cheap so I could snap off ten photos and it cost me basically nothing.

However, that motion blur is required, and with modern software, you could do that in post-production relatively easily.

Is this a shitpost? She is using discord.

Edit: I'm an idiot. This is literally a shitpost.

I have to say if I was one of the Pacific nations and I had to choose between China and Trump Gaza, I'd be looking quite seriously at China.

The absolute irony of this article coming from a UK organization.

The UK is the most surveilled country in the entire world.

You can't scratch yourself there, without the AI reporting how many scratches, and at what angle you scratched.

So what have these asshats been doing lately that they need good publicity to hide behind?

Our work is the opposite. As soon as a new machine arrives we go straight to BIOS at boot, switch the settings and install Linux immediately. Windows never sees the light of day. I do feel for you as we do do sales calls and in the middle of sales calls the people that we are calling have their computers reboot on them, do an update, or I've just got to restart and on restart it does an update and huge amounts of time are wasted on those people.

Windows probably costs the world millions a day in wasted, for time for shit like that.

I've blocked so so many. It can be tiring

I spent about two years trying and giving up to get my fingerprint reader working on my X1 Carbon.

Then chat gpt comes out and I ask that how to do it.

It gives me a one-line bash / script thingy, and my fingerprint reader has worked ever since.

That was a pretty cool day.

Fantastic!

The dive into fascism

It might well have been, I guess somebody might know the answer.

From somebody who's trying to improve their art skills, it is an incredible piece. I can't even fathom getting to that level in my skill set. I don't know how large it is, but it is really quite something.

This is what machines are for.

That person is going to get repetitive stress injury very quickly.

this is a gen6 e14. Thank you. That's what I needed to hear. Turns out the intel has a bit more to it, will udpate my post. So undecided
