Comment on Having fun with a scamming crypto job in ~comp
geniusraunchyassman I am always surprised by how willing people are to do so much work to not have to do actual legitimate work. It seems much easier to just get a steady job. Anyway, thanks for the nice write up....I am always surprised by how willing people are to do so much work to not have to do actual legitimate work. It seems much easier to just get a steady job.
Anyway, thanks for the nice write up. It’s my first time hearing of this scam and also firejail. Will definitely look into using that for my future needs.

The only con I have is customer service can be a little bit slow and matter of fact. But I haven’t had to contact support in over 3 years.

Heck, one guy met the owner at the park and asked for a job after a short conversation. He worked here for a few years.
Networking is more important than anything. My spouse got their job because their mom cleaned the hiring manager’s teeth.

Comment on Looking for chill horror lets players in ~games
geniusraunchyassman Markiplier is my OG fall asleep guy. I used to actively watch his videos to fall asleep rather than kind of background noise. I just got way less tolerant of his screaming and he would wake me up....Markiplier is my OG fall asleep guy. I used to actively watch his videos to fall asleep rather than kind of background noise.
I just got way less tolerant of his screaming and he would wake me up.
That being said, there was a part of my life that was very dark and I lived on Markiplier and Anthony Bourdain. So he’s very close to my heart.
Lots of nostalgia for the five nights at freddys series.

Looking for chill horror lets players
I like to listen to mostly horror let’s plays throughout the day and at bedtime because they are good background noise for me. I just want to find more chill options that don’t do any over the top...

I just want to find more chill options that don’t do any over the top screaming. Preferably some that need a boost and are lesser known.
I’ll contribute my own to get started. Her name is Hula Noob and she’s very chill, lots of dialogue and commentary which I like.
I do know about Gab too. Though she’s a little more diversified. Which is fine.

I don’t know about your partner but it’s always been a texture thing to me. I hated the “mushy” crunch that vegetables always seemed to have. That’s probably the best way I can explain it.
My wife’s strategy was to sneak things into recipes where I wouldn’t suspect there were vegetables. Even made a hot sauce with squash one time and I had no idea. Probably still the best hot sauce I’ve ever had.
I guess I’m saying all of this to try and give you hope that anyone can enjoy vegetables if you ease them in and get rid of as many pain points around them as possible.

Why not just go with a CSS framework? I use Fomantic CSS which is a fork of Semantic CSS. Kind of takes the hard work out of laying out UI with consistent styling.

geniusraunchyassman Yes. Even with jailbreaks I’m not exactly a fan of sharing such intimate material with tech giants. I use Tailscale as a VPN to my workstation and run the models on that. Then I use Sillytavern...Yes.
Even with jailbreaks I’m not exactly a fan of sharing such intimate material with tech giants.
I use Tailscale as a VPN to my workstation and run the models on that. Then I use Sillytavern locally on my laptop and just connect it to my workstation endpoint.
I also use TogetherAI and Mancer from time to time.
Digging into F# was the first time in a while that programming actually felt fun again. It’s trusty and stable. But there’s just.. nothing going on in that space, sadly.
