There is a cool self-hosted version of Perplexity out there now, called Perplexica. It can be configured to use Ollama (local inferencing) and your own, self-hosted SearXNG instance to do the actual search and collation.

I have been using it for a week and it really works.

Funkwhale works nice, but honestly, I am a big fan of just using mpd and piping the audio over a networked speaker, but I’m a simple boy with simple needs.

my advice, personally? if you’re curious, get a Botox injection. it is temporary, exceedingly well-studied, and generally does not interact with any other precription medicine. If you don’t like it, it will wear off, just don’t get it again and you’re gold.

however, do NOT get fillers done, because from what research has been coming out over the past few years, the general consensus is that fillers do not break down in the body, and merely migrate when the dermis loses tensity. you will almost certainly need to get them surgically removed, and that shit isn’t as easy as just injecting it back out. Though, I understand that recent studies have opened up a method of using some new kind of radio wave mapping to determine where all the filler went so that they can actually suck it back out piece by piece.

cheap, too. it’s just processed Clostridium botulinum poison; you can brew that in large vats for pennies on the dose. In some cases, it’s cheaper to make than pills.

well… this is going to cause a chilling effect. :/

Yeesh, even beyond the obvious, sticking around after that probably puts a real target on your back for a few years later. I would do the same thing.

Seriously, folks. I was born here, grew up here, and never left. Do not come into the country. Basically, we will all let you know when the coast is clear. 🤷 Until then, please, do not risk it, even if you think you are from a friendly country.

I’m so frustrated. It’s happening exactly like everyone said it would. I wanted to think everyone was smarter than this, but this is the Executive equivalent of yelling, “IT’S COMING RIGHT FOR US” right before you kill illegal game.

Yeah.

fun fact, the years 1999, 2000, and 2001 were actually all the same year.

hey, this is the plot of Children of Men…

it’s a random event that happens sometime in the beginning of any new game — in story, it’s a military black hawk helicopter flying over the Knox County area looking for survivors.

The effect in-game is that the zombies in the world all gather around to follow the noise source, which controls and drives a gigantic crowd of zombies around where you’re at. It can be very overwhelming, especially when you’re just starting out and don’t have much by way of structures built.

my friends and I utilize a mod that records your skills in a notebook that stays on your zombie after you die. so you actually have a motivation to go back into somewhere dangerous and clean it up.

still eagerly waiting for the stable release of the next version.

Finally, somebody looking out for the faceless among us.
