  • Is there a specific version of Qbit to use? Asking for a friend...

  • Glad to share, I just hope it's something that helps users and screws over Meta, if even just a little.

  • Sorry for the poor phrasing on my part, as others clarified Vanced was killed and ReVanced came along but I haven't liked it as much and have been wanting to move away from MicroG services anyway.

    ReVanced still lives and works great! I just have been slowly moving to Piped and LibreTube connects right to my account there, so it just made sense for me to make the move over.

  • My mistake, can't believe I forgot to include it! Sony Xperia 1IV, standard issue.

  • FWIW I don't think I bought mine from a carrier, I bought it direct from Sony (thought that's kind of just a stepping stone away). It was pretty light on bloatware, but Facebook was preinstalled and is eternally in the package list (adb aside of course :D)

  • Ah good, I've been looking for something better than Waifu2x. Thanks!

  • Your body feels hungover because you were taking something that your body was using and then you stopped providing it. That's not really a hangover so much as a previous source of nutrition that's no longer being had!

    Taking CBD compounds helps start and regulate our endocannabinoid system which helps with chronic nerve pain, gastrointestinal issues, issues with insomnia, mood, and anxiety.

    Basically, it's not like you were taking some acetaminophen for a headache to literally stop you from feeling its presence. It's still there, regardless of the medication or not. It's more like you were taking something that acted as a muscle relaxant, which removed the pressure from the thing preventing the headache from happening in the first place.

  • I think the important distinction here is the percentages of THC present with whatever you're taking.

    If you and @danielton are just talking about getting stoned with cannabis, well yeah it's going to get you high.

    If you guys are talking about taking CBD compound supplements with THC present, that's very different. THC at low percentages have little to no actual psychoactive effects (talking sub 10% which is way higher than any CBD-specific product can legally be sold as). THC only acts as a catalyst in this fashion.

    CDB, CBG, CBC, and CBN, which all occur in different stages of degradation of the THC and CBD compound molecules. CBN is one of the last stages of degradation of THC and is associated with the almost-narcoleptic like sleep and is generally responsible for times that weed knocks you out, which is what I'm guessing happens for you! Not to be one of those vocal enjoyers, moreso highlighting the science behind why you felt the way you have with various strains. It's certainly the high doses of THC affecting you, but without any CBD compounds there's nothing to ease the THC.

    It's similar to how we can take an NSAID and an analgesic. Of course we can just have one or the other to get the specific effect, but taking them combined delivers a wider range of effects that go beyond what they were originally meant for. edit The difference is that we have an endocannabinoid system that's meant to be active and using these theoretically helping prevent the issues in the first place - whereas NSAID and analgesics something we take as a suppressive.

  • On the other hand, I’ve had friends swear by CBD tinctures. They were doing large doses (like 50mg+) daily and claimed it had all sorts of benefits for their chronic pain or upset stomach.

    That's because their endocannabinoid system is actively in use, unlike people who do not take CBD supplements. We metabolized CBD very well and our bodies will use it when it's there, so for a lot of people taking CBD they need to jump-start the endocannabinoid system to start processing it.

    Often times people will take 1000mg for the first week (or two), then cut that in half to 500mg, then in half for until you are down to 50mg or 15mg doses. Normally we'd have been getting our CBD compounds from the things we eat that eat hemp, something that was prevalent as a feed in the U.S. and is still prevalent in other countries (Nepal, for example). However since we stopped using hemp, animals stopped passing on CBD compounds to us and here we are today with a society full of symptoms of a non-working endocannabinoid system (and well, signs of lead poisoning but lets just move past that...) which include - chronic nerve pain, gastrointestinal issues, issues with insomnia, mood and anxiety. You know, everything that we attribute to just the daily struggles of society today.

    Of course, they most likely are just that, but it seems pretty crazy to me that we have a whole system in our body that is essentially on the backburner with very high correlation to many of the health problems.

    Just remember, don't be afraid of THC. They need each other to work effectively, and THC doesn't have to mean high. Obviously, if it's a legality issue that's a different story, but in regards to an edible that has 5% or uses the letters LOC then don't even think about it for a second - it's fine. Think of its present as the catalyst for the reaction.

  • I refer to them as the CBD compounds. Like you said, these work with the entourage effect and so having just one isn't nearly as effective as getting the full, or at least a wider, spectrum.

  • Fry definitely sounds different, Hermes I didn't notice.

    Honestly though, it's not something that matters or bothers me especially with the actual context of the episode. The same timejoke for Benders beer being flat is why Fry's voice aged, for reasons! lol

  • It has to be a joke lol, there's no way someone would put in this much effort to screenshot every row of movies, upload them and post it here... unless...

  • Yeah their comment is very subjective lol. I started my Plex server when It's Always Sunny was taken off Netflix. I've had to reset my server a few times so I don't have total plays, but they're well past the hundreds.

    Chores just aren't the same without something happening in the background.

    And shucked drives make it fairly reasonably priced. I get my 5TB's for around $35

  • I found quite a few at nyaa

  • I was seeing a lot on chat for a while?

  • Seems like the only option for something that can be on a multipurpose PC.

    Set up your folders, get your devices synced, and it pretty much sorts itself from there.

    I've had minor temporary issues with Syncthing, nothing that hasn't been fixed quickly (and have yet to had them happen again).

    Great for music and photos between PC and phone and for transfers between music production PC and gaming PC. Better than Dropbox and GDrive for most purposes (lacking support for online link sharing, which isn't very important)

  • You can see model biases by using a model with a blank positive prompt and a negative prompt to "low quality". Run 20 gens and you'll see what the model likes to lean into.

    You can also do gentle inferences with a token for positive prompt. For example, if you are trying to find color biases something like RedOutfit with the low quality negative prompt. However once you start adding more tokens it mostly goes out the window so it's not something to rely on so much as to get a sense for what might be more likely to occur.

    Very helpful for testing models you get from civitai or wherever else

  • I saw the article here but typing plexamp free nets a lot of few hour olds articles. Here's just one :)

  • That's fair, I'm with you there. The thread was talking about paying for these services, like some Plex shares ask for donations, Usenet, etc all have paid options that make it faster/whatever. Those are still costs, even if it's smaller $10 monthly ones. They also add up, so setting up your own server is well within that pricerage, which was what I was getting at.

    You can set up the arrs for private trackers and yes you'd want ratio for those to stay in, but you don't need it. 1337 is plenty and anything that's not on there is usually on archive. That's all I use and I like the weird niche stuff. Personally, I don't even use the arr programs, I've set them up and have used them but I just end up doing it the old fashioned way.

    Also fair in regards to the delete as you go. That's just our use cases :) I like having my media permanently and I store a fair amount of rare/unusual things as well as any shows I consistently rewatch. At a certain point it was just less work and wear to keep everything than it was to try and manage storage. I mean, I have it anyway, it wrote to the disk, it's more data and read/write loss to delete and redownload than it is to just keep it stored.

    Anyway, just putting it out there that running a server doesn't have to be expensive, time consuming, or difficult to have other people use. But like with many things, there's more than one way of doing something and both being perfectly cromulent ways to live.

  • Plexamp just or is recently releasing a free version, so may not need the subscription anymore.
