Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the most controversial TV finale?
1·5 days agoIf you don’t mind saying, where in the show are you currently? Because depending on that, “MC last Minute heel turn” can mean drastically different things

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Say your partner is gone for around a week, and you're home alone. What are you going to do that you wouldn't normally with someone around?
15·7 days agoNah. She is a night-owl and always stays up for hours later than myself. Which makes it really hard to get up from the couch and go to bed for me in turn.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Don't fix the problem just change the parameters
2·7 days agoFWIW, I went to school in mid-2000. My sibling even later. They still taught it back then, and at least here, I am pretty sure they still do. (And why would they not, after all…)

71·7 days agoLiterally noone I know in real life has any problem whatsoever reading analog clocks, no matter the “brain capacity”, neuro-typicality, state of drunkenness,… It is an extremely simple “skill”.

151·7 days agoDisagree - it rarely matters to me if it’s 13:24:56 or 13:25:05, but I do find the instant and intuitive gauging of time deltas super useful (as in, how long it’s going to be to the full hour / to quarter past / … ). Not saying you can’t get that info from a digital clock as well, of course you can; but the physicality of analog clocks lends a good bit of intuition to this, I feel.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a Lemmy instance worth using yet?
13·7 days agoOK, so what you want is for other people to volunteer their time and money to keep an instance running. That, by itself, is honestly fine, and many people are happy to do so.
But you then also do not want to play by their rules. That part is not fine.

11·7 days agoJust host your own instance.
Others are luckily always free to block you, but you do not need to worry about losing your account.
There is not really any downside to hosting your own instance either, thanks to federation, you get to participate in the wider Lemmy community as an equal member.

643·7 days agoI feel like I’m going insane reading these comments about how difficult it is to read analog clocks, how it needs too much understanding of maths, how it takes too long,…
Can someone please confirm: you just look, for a fraction of a second, at the clock face and know the time, right?
Learning to read the clock was like… A couple of lessons and some homework in the 2nd grade, and everyone got it.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Intent recognition for HomeAssistant without an LLM?English
1·10 days agoActually… Just tried it. I am on 2025.10, so newer than what was mentioned there. It still does not understand any better than from what I remember. Bummer.
But hey, at least the acknowledge that there’s the need for something between dumb pattern matching and an LLM.

1·10 days agoHoly shit YES!
That article is from yesterday, and the relevant section is: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2025/10/22/voice-chapter-11/#improved-sentence-matching
Awesome to see improvements there. Thanks a lot for linking!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Besides self pleasure, how do you single men cope without months or years without sex?
4·11 days agoSounds like you never wanted to be friends, just fuck them.

9·11 days agoI’m almost sorry to be blunt, but…
Women don’t want to be chased. You’re a misogynist who has reduced women to “people to have sex with” in your own mind.
If you change that, you gain the possibility of actual connections, including intimacy, with them; if you don’t, you don’t. Either way it’s up to you if you want the status quo to continue or to improve.

Yeah. I just put the media location on my nas, and that is being mirrored to hetzner.
