baking myself egg+fish fat sauce+rice+lentil batter granola crackers on a whim and out of necessity
I was going to add milk, but I actually had to add lentil instead. not very confident it won't be just crumble piles, it's not very flippable when it should be, and so I lowered the temp and added more time. the price for preferring to avoid cooking with any wheat (because of health, and wheat gives me bad food management and cooking technique habits)

it was flippable enough thanks to demarcation attempts beforehand during the initial spreading
but the layer is really thick, and so, still moist. moist and flippable is hopeful, and nothing that can't be fixed by evening it out again with physical pressure, and more low temp long time baking (probably)

I do unlisted livestreams for some friends. I generally play singleplayer games, so it's fun to be able to share it with my friends. Also nice to verbally talk sometimes, otherwise I only ever write.

Sometimes I upload playthroughs of retro games played in the "original" hardware without any commentary, other times I will stream to Twitch just for one or two friends . If suddenly I start seeing a lot of people I don't know, I will panic and cut the stream.

While you can be unlisted on Youtube, you can't do the same thing on Twitch and it's annoying as heck.

This is an odd one, but would anyone happen to know if manually blacklisted users and terms set by an uploader show up anywhere in the source code of a video page?
The reason I'm asking is because I know there are a few people subscribed to me that did so in order to spread sensitive information in the comments, which is something that can actually get worrisome on tiny channels where every comment gets seen. To my knowledge, you can't remove subscribers and I remember many years back when YT freshly removed public video tags, you were able to still check for those in the source code of video pages. I wouldn't want to expose my worries by having my blacklisted terms and users show up there as well.
I also remember not having been able to do anything against reuploads back then, though that is a different story entirely and I hope you have more options for that nowadays.

What does "competency" for kbowledge-based fields look like in a post-AI world? Before search engines, competency meant being able to recall certain information or at least be able to search through relevant reference material and so forth to find whatever you're looking for. With search engines, that changed to finding relevant information from trusted websites, but relying on them heavily (e.g. copy-pasting solutions from Stack Overflow) was discouraged. Now with modern LLMs, you can mostly trust the information they provide to be mostly correct, but they can essentially do all the work with enough proding in the right direction. So, what does competency look like when an LLM can be trusted to get things ~80% the way done?

Same with anything that gets mostly automated (IE CNC machines, sewing machines? printers..??), competence mostly falls down to how well you can operate the machine spirit.
Using search engines as a comparison point, you could be considered more competent than others if you can filter out answers you don't want from answers you do want. Ever had a case where you're searching for a niche problem, but had to word it in a very specific way and use word blacklists because otherwise you'd get dozens of thousands of answers on extremely basic things instead? It takes a specific type of wrangling to make the computer spirit interpret your question question the way you actually want it to.

Some people even with all the information in the world wouldn't be able to apply it in a way that mattered or sort it for those who will be using it later. 100% just a knowledge check style jobs don't really exist, but some certainly come close to it. Competency was never about just regurgitating facts it was about implementing or using them effectively. The jobs I would say AI would be most able to take at the point that its in is secretarial work since it just involves handling existing data. A rando can program with AI now, but I wouldn't trust an app they make with any of my information because a rando hasn't been taught anything about cyber security and won't even realize they need to work that in. AI still needs someone who knows what to ask it, then what to do with what it spits out.

Was watching this and it reminded me that I've really loved in the past going outdoors and relaxing in nature when I've been stresssed.I haven't done it that much recently because it's about a 10 minute walk to the nearest park while it used to be right in my backyard when I was a kid, but I bet the feeling would probably be quite similar. I know that recently on my hike to Mt. Fuji, for the parts where I wasn't dead tired or short on breath because of the atmosphere, I really enjoyed just the scenery around me and just the epic scale of the mountain altogether. Maybe I should go and stroll through that park nearby while Autumn's still in full swing.

I know that we're on an imageboard for people that generally stay on the PC all day, but I think usually there's a shared sentiment on /qa/ so I wonder how many more of you like to simply enjoy and appreciate nature inside of it too? When was the last time that you really just went out of your way to go and relax in a forest or something for no reason?

I'm bothered by that being a fake 'live' thing since the lighting never changes. What a shame.

But yes, I love hanging around in nature. Unfortunately I'd have to travel to get to it so I don't really do it. There are a couple "parks" nearby with playgrounds for kids and stuff and it's surrounded by trees, but it's not the same thing as actual nature with larger animals running around. I am very much not a people person and get very anxious around crowds, but nature and animals are very soothing and calming.
Garden is really fun for this reason, too. Too bad it takes so long for trees to grow or I'd plant a miniature privacy forest. (Well and I'm sure it'd be against zoning laws)

Same, I used it because I looked at it for 5 seconds and thought it was nice but it's definitely either AI or on a loop and that's annoying. Says it's footage from a camera, but the internet lies a lot so could be either.

A few years ago I worked outside of town and ended up living in a cabin for the duration of the job. It wasn't exactly isolated, but there was plenty of forest and water surrounding it, and honestly, I really miss just walking the local area on the weekends. There's something really relaxing about being surrounded by silence and nature compared to the city.
Normal life doesn't seem to work out so I might just aim to become a forest hermit instead. At least run down rural properties are fairly cheap where I live.

What are some essentials we'd need to make the /qa/ mansion? Personally, I'm leaning towards a farm plot at the very least for self-sufficiency. With a chicken pen too and maybe more animals but definitely chickens because we ALL need eggs. Maybe some moo cows too for milk. But above all, we need very fluffy and soft beds for good sleep everynight.

I'm back from my trip. Didn't end up visiting Suwa because of time restraints but I really loved Takamatsu, everybody there was very kind and I got lots of nihongo jyouzus. I checked out the islands of Megijima and Ogijima but I fucked up and forgot to bring enough money to stretch out the visit so I ended up making a bit of my own fun by ditching the buses and most of the arts and just hiking through the islands. I walked to the Oni cave on Megijima and it was very beautiful, saw a derelict shrine at the start of the path and a few nature paths and then on the way down I had to haul ass because I saw a wild boar gaining in my direction behind me. Ogijima was pretty, sat around with cats and then saw all the cool sights. And then spent another day just hanging out around Tamachi arcade in Takamatsu and visiting Ritsurin gardens, the local castle and then admiring the Kotoden trains. And then I finished up in Tokyo and did the usual stuff.

Heres the loot. I picked up lots of kemono friend and rozen maiden goods.

Our time on this earth isn't infinite. And it's impossible for one person to do everything in the span of one lifetime. Realizing this I find that I'm a bit less shy about admitting I've missed classics over the years due to spending my time on something else. Like that I've never touched the Wild Arms series since I was playing other RPGs, fighting games, and later wasted too much time on MMOs before just moving onto other anime/games in general. What are some classics that you feel guilty about skipping, /qa/?

I do definitely care about cuteness when it comes to animals and such, 2D or 3D, which is why I love watching Koupen. For human characters I think I'm just wired differently and don't really perceive it unless the character comes off as very helpless, like the elephant man from the live-action movie of the same name.
In 2D I tend to be more drawn to "cool" things or concepts, like robots or Berserk; Black Lagoon; Sakuya and her powers or the game of wits in Death Note.

Neat I forgot about your stuff. Going to see how easy it'll be to port some to BSD without relying on the GNU tools.

I wrote my own terminal client for youtube called moetube. It works really well and I can do everything I could do from the browser version through it. It downloads content with yt-dlp and pipes it into mpv. I can search and see my watch history and all that stuff. Only thing it can't do is give me the trending list because I haven't figured out how to do that without allowing the account to have a watch history (my watch history is 100% on the local machine).

I didn't realize how much BSD sed and GNU sed differed until I wrote that client. I initially wrote it for GNU sed and had to resort to using it on BSD for a long time until I finally figured out how to do what I wanted without relying on the GNU's non-standard behavior.

>Going to see how easy it'll be to port some to BSD without relying on the GNU tools.
they are all written in posix c without any gnu extensions so they compile and just work on bsd without modification
i have already tested on freebsd and openbsd
>It downloads content with yt-dlp and pipes it into mpv.
this breaks seeking, you should extract the video links and play with mpv directly
>Only thing it can't do is give me the trending list because I haven't figured out how to do that without allowing the account to have a watch history
you can't do it without an account, youtube intentionally changed it
it's useless for me anyway
>I didn't realize how much BSD sed and GNU sed differed until I wrote that client.
even though i daily drive linux, i always refer to posix spec for all shell scripts i write
i also don't use bash and pay lots of attention to portability so my shell scripts just work dash, bsd sh, busybox sh etc
>What are you using to draw the GUI? Qt?
i use my own gui toolkit to make sure it's lightweight and portable
my programs only depend on libc and libx11 so they work out of box everywhere, less than 500kb with all other dependencies static linked
qt is too dependency heavy like most gui toolkits

Is /qa/ spiritual? I'm a bit spiritual in my own way. I like to create my own rituals and I read lots of books on eastern spirituality, mainly buddhism and daoism. I have my own little shrine on a wall shelf. It's just a big Buddha statue, two framed pictures of my grandparents and a couple objects to represent them. I offer them water and flowers and I sometimes meditate while facing them. Although I don't consider myself a buddhist, I try to incorporate some elements of buddhism into my life: generosity, detachment, meditation... Same thing with daoism. I study the Dao and try to live with the flow. What about you guys?

"Experts" say it's just phosphenes, because I rubbed my eyes, but I never had phosphenes this big, vivid, and slowly forming up right as I've been seeing them. I don't think it's directly spiritual or some ophthalmological pathology though. Even if I know my brain neurotransmitter receptors are weird, that's a bit too much.

I am lazy. I'll believe whatever gets people off my back. So I am Christian.
