What went well for you? Today or this week. No matter how small, let's celebrate the good things in our lives!

I'll try to post this regularly.

My disability got boosted to the next level which means more money and it will be easier to organise transportation should I need to go anywhere. And I think applications for future stuff will get easier.

Take that, lady who wrote I could wash my hair because I could lift my hand above my head once!

I think we could increase the number of stem phds just by changing the title from Doctor to Ultimate Grandmaster.

Bonus panel

I'd like something to describe images for me and also recognise any text contained in them. I've tried llama3. 2-vision, llava and minicpm-v but they all get the text recognition laughably wrong.

Or maybe I should lay my image recognition dreams to rest with my measly 8 GB RAM card.

Edit: gemma3:4b is even worse than the others. It doesn't even find the text and hallucinates others.

In our eternal quest to declutter our life we found an approach that seems to work better than "does it spark joy?".

"Would I take it with me if I were to move to a 1 room apartment?"

Offener Brief an Abgeordnete von Union und SPD zur Aufnahme von MEcfs in den Koalitionsvertrag

Ich hoffe dieser offene Brief kann etwas erreichen. ME ist die häufigste Ausprägung von Long Covid. War aber schon vorher Jahrzehnte lang bekannt. Trotzdem wissen noch nicht einmal die meisten Ärzte, dass es existiert oder tun es als Depression oder andere psychische Erkrankung ab.

Einfach nur mehr Bekanntheit würde mir und anderen Betroffenen viel bringen.

Summary of the latest study on oxaloacetate, a food supplement found in nutmeg among others. The supplement is pretty expensive.

I've been taking 1000 mg per day for about a month and haven't noticed any change. I think I will raise that to 2000 mg when my current bottle is empty and then decide if I will keep taking it. Currently not very optimistic.

In my quest to tame my pict-rs instance I've disabled thumbnail proxying, deleted all thumbnails and images not uploaded by me and still the files folder is several GB big. And growing.

I am the only user of my instance. But iotop shows constant disc activity for pict-rs. It's writing stuff at about 1 MB/s. The webserver logs only show my own activity and occasionally someone requesting an image. But not nearly enough to explain this constant activity.

When I'm looking at the actual files at random it seems to be mostly memes and stuff, but not what I uploaded myself.

Does anyone have an idea how I can find out what is causing all this activity?

Edit: I've opened an issue at https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/issues/79

I'm currently migrating pictrs' database from sled to PostgreSQL and even during that it seems to be constantly writing data to sled. Doesn't feel right to me.
