GPU farms are such a fascinating type of data center cause they have a lot of things they're really useful for in little bursts at a time, but solving computationally demanding science problems isn't exciting enough for techbros so they keep trying to find an infinite money algorithm to run instead

yo can someone go check on Taylor's merch team their new drop actually has some good designs? very unusual I'm worried

(might still be them tho because it's mostly super expensive hoodies/sweaters with insane washing instructions)

ok so maybe I ordered machine care fluid for my dryer (and an additional rubber plug I lost) just to realise that the description in the app is slightly misleading and you don't even need it for normal use 😭

Secure Boot with Arch Linux is so annoying when you don't have access to the firmware setup utility 😭 (otherwise also, but ESPECIALLY in this case)

does anyone else have the issue where if you try to set up a passkey for the paypal app the sms code is always rejected and then it insists on a photo id?

I'm not sure if it's just broken or this is a weird way to get my data 🙁

when i first started writing Rust, i thought i'd be building well-oiled performant libraries that run like with the intricacies of a Swiss watch.

what i end up making is a loud, clunky, diesel-powered monstrosity that's in some desperate need of WD40

but boy does it run well
