Halvdan,

Thank you for your service.

Halvdan,

Not quite. If I understood correctly, Nagaoka predicted magnetism in a thin material with electron deficiency. This happened in a thin material with 50% excess of electrons, which arguably is different or at least something Nagaoka didn’t exactly predict.

You can now request Stable Diffusion generations from the AI Horde bot directly from anywhere in lemmy!

Simply mention @aihorde with the text "draw for me " and then the text that you would like it to draw and I will draw you an image matching your prompt, post it in this community and then reply with a link to each image! Optionally you can provide a “style:” as well. Example: @aihorde@lemmy.dbzer0.com draw for me a beautiful...

@aihorde draw for me a black cat stretched out sleeping in the sun style: sdxl-photo-horizontal

Halvdan,

You and me, buddy.

Halvdan,

“might”…? I thought that was pretty much a proven fact. Not that any of the other are any better, with the possible exception of Kagi, but fuck using that anymore. I’m pretty disappointed by that since I finally had found a search that was pretty good and I have no problem paying for it, but I simply won’t give that asshat any money. Why aren’t there any nice capitalists? 🤔

Halvdan,

No, you are wrong. The bomb is always where you click. Source: playing the game.

Halvdan,

So, a massive antibiotic cocktail run and then implant some faeces from a happy normal person and you’re cured. Easy peasy.

Halvdan,

Yes, but how many knows that you can break them in half so that the opening is split in two. Then sort of wedge it onto your finger and shoot them at unsuspecting siblings?

Halvdan,

I’m very much not an apple fan boi, but this is interesting. Maybe someone can develop a square FOSS variant with replaceable batteries and a parallel port on the side?

Halvdan,

Soo… Drop gators?

Halvdan,

Damn you kids and your newfangled RS232 connectors.

Fusion 360 increasing annual price to $680 USD (lemmy.world)

Got this email from Autodesk that Fusion is increasing their annual price by a huge amount. I subbed for 1 year a couple years ago for I think $380. Then I was able to get an educational sub after that. Fusion is still the cheapest CAD software out there, not including the free stuff like FreeCAD, but still, this price increase...

Halvdan,

Says 48$/year or 15$/month for me.

Halvdan,

No need to apologize, even if it supposedly is the custom in your part of the world. 😉 You still pointed out something that I didn’t know about and for that you have my eternal gratitude. Not much of it, mind, but some of it.

Halvdan,

Definitely cat SW.

Halvdan,

We got cans of beans and sausage in the army. The cans where from the back end of the food reserve so about 30 years old. We had been on manouver for about a month, it was -30C, we where on very little sleep and food was about the only thing that kept you going.

I still couldn’t eat those. Completely inedible. All the other cans were ok to eat. Some were even good at the time. Not the beans. I like beans, but that image gave me flashbacks. Vile stuff. Don’t post it again, please?

Halvdan,

My thoughts exactly. God-tier talents, both of them. But if you got #2 you don’t really need to steal. I would use #3 to undress. Easily saves 5-10 seconds at bedtime. Or become the naked burglar of course.

Attitude to piracy in Nordic countries?

I've moved from Russia, where torrents are pretty popular and only recently were mitigated by Steam, to a Nordic country. I don't intend on breaking the law, because my residence is temporary and I have funds to buy games, but I wonder if any of these things found in Russia or other Eastern European countries are accepted by...

Halvdan,

As a Swede, I can confirm what Joakim wrote. Pretty much the same deal here. General pirating isn't a big deal really and is usually pretty safe to discuss in an informal setting. It's like speeding. It's really common, but maybe don't brag about it? Oh, don't do much speeding in Finland. Joakim will tell you why. 😀

Edit: Oops. This reply ended up in the wrong post somehow. I replied to someone that repaired a washing machine. Or so I thought anyway.

Good job! It feels really good to fix something and not having to spend a fortune on a professional repair or buying a new one. A general and probably obvious tip: take loads of pics before and during taking stuff apart. Even if you fail to repair something it is much cheaper if the thing is not in pieces when the pro arrive. They may even refuse to work on it. It's hard for them to know exactly where else you have put your greasy mitts and messed stuff up. They are responsible for the repair and if someone else has been tinkering with it before, they have to test everything to make sure it works. (If they are good at their job.) That can turn a simple repair into something that requires you to be sitting down when opening the bill. Again, not saying you shouldn't repair stuff, but know what might happen if you fail. No pressure. 😃

If it's electrical and you're not absolutely sure of what you're doing, don't. Changing an outlet or a broken switch is not rocket surgery, but be VERY sure that the power is off. Test twice that there's no power. If you don't know how to test that, you are firmly in the "don't do this" category. It's not hard to learn, so take your time to do that first. Do not modify an existing installation in any way. Leave that to the pros.

Fixing powered appliances, especially washers and stuff like that is extra iffy. Be very careful to get stuff back the way they were. Not saying it can't be done safely by an amateur, but the stakes are considerably higher when there's water and electricity in close proximity. Things can fail in rather "interesting" ways. Don't do anything fancy if you're not absolutely sure about what you're doing. What OP did should be relatively safe and many things aren't as hard as one might think at first glance. I think OP has the right attitude and many things can be fixed for much less than what a professional would charge. But be very careful with electrical stuff and do a lot of research on safety and be sure you know that what you are doing is correct before messing with stuff that can kill you or burn your house down.

I hope I don't come off as wet blanket regarding self-repair. I think that the right to repair is super important and more people should repair their own stuff. I also think we should try to buy stuff that is repairable whenever possible. If you start to repair stuff yourself you will also start to appreciate when stuff is well made and start to look for it. It is also very possible to get your hands on something good for cheap that just needs a (hopefully cheap) repair to be as good as new. It's not for everyone and it takes experience to know when it's a good deal. Reparability is in fact essential to save the fucking planet. Can't just throw shit away and buy new all the time. It's just not sustainable. There are powerful economic forces that don't like repairs at all and do everything they can to make it as hard as possible to repair stuff and make stuff that breaks or become obsolete after a few years. They do not want to make stuff that lasts forever. The whole system depends on that, in fact. There are exceptions, but they are few and far between and are often quite a bit more expensive. If you have the good fortune to be able to afford those products, buy them. Not everyone is so lucky of course, but if we create a bigger market for good quality and reparable stuff, in time the second hand market will grow and then it might be possible to get good stuff for less. A surprising amount of stuff can in fact be repaired with a little ingenuity and pherhaps a cheap 3D printer if you wanna get fancy, but that is often not nescessary either. You can get very far with just common, easy to get stuff. Repairing your old stuff is in fact an act of rebellion against the current economic system. Fight the power! Down with the... Sorry about that. Won't happen again. The people responsible have been sacked.

Unfortunately there are some downsides. Modern appliances typically use a lot less power than older ones and may even pay for themselves in time. Unfortunately, again, the new ones are often a lot less repairable and not built to last. I don't really know what the best is here, but I do hate to throw stuff away that can be fixed, even when it's not economically advantageous to do so. I usually tell myself that it is probably advantageous for the planet in the long run. Be smart about it, I guess? Best thing would be to change the economic system we toil under, but that's for another post. Bit of a long one, this.

TL;DR - Stay safe out there, and follow OPs excellent example.

Halvdan,

I imagine it must have seemed a bit strange. I couldn't find the right post for it when I realized my mistake so I thought I might as well just leave it there as a monument to the pointlessness of it all. Or something like that, I don't know. Mistakes were made. Thanks for being a good sport about it. 😃

Halvdan,

I'm so sorry. Just know that there are lots of people out there who hasn't fallen pray to the hate propaganda and would be proud to call you their friend. hug

Halvdan,

One more reporting in!

Halvdan,

I would love to see the spez referred to as "former r/jailbait moderator and CEO of Reddit, Steve Huffman" in any article by a reputable source. Just once. Please.

Halvdan,

Cocaine will do that, or so I'm told.

Halvdan,

Just reread my comment and realized I didn't say anything about the original image at all. I just latched on to the tattoo comment.

I am personally unable to create anything even remotely as good as OPs very talented girlfriend and the ability to create something so instantly recognizable and beautiful with just a few lines is just incredible to me. The ability to see the absolute minimally needed to convey your vision shows real talent. I like it a lot and I'm sure that many more will agree with me.

I was just trying to say that there is a way for us artistically challenged people to transform an idea in to something that does not look like crap. Sorry for not explaining earlier, I realize now that my earlier comment implies that an AI tool could create something better and that was not my intention at all. It is just a tool that can create some interesting results without the need for artistic talent. It can be a good way to create a base to convey to a tattoo artist what you want, especially if you can't find examples to show and are unable to create something that does not look like a kindergarten finger painting gone horribly wrong.

Thanks for replying and reminding me to say something about the actual post.
