Working with a new #acting #coaching client, had them do 2 takes with the same goal, but a different attitude/assumption about the other character. Discovered the primary tension totally shifted. We get to build and place that discovered tension as we want now.

Explored with an #acting #coaching client their character's physicality directly. With more specifics, the relationship to the other characters and what happens was clarified. Really cool to experience.

A fresh delivery of slackosundries, my totally random collection of Slackware sw packages.
The latest version of Brave Origin (1.91.149-1) is there for the taking.
Also: a desktop client for Filen encrypted cloud storage is included in slackosundries now. I use that myself. The other packages had no updates.

Nuclear AI Startup Fermi Promised Land and Ample Power. But It Couldn't Sign a Single Client

The pitch ticked so many boxes — artificial intelligence, nuclear energy, political connections — that some investors found it irresistible. Fermi went public in October worth more than $19 billion in market value, despite reporting no revenue or signed customers.
Now, the startup’s board has fired its top executive, Toby Neugebauer, after months of negotiations failed to s…

the world’s dumbest form of transportation
sad little system

Well this was not expected.
The 100G optics I ordered for my desk came in, and swapping the pipe to my desk from 40 to 100G gave a huge improvement in Ceph performance.
But I don't understand *why*.
Baseline config from earlier in the year: client on 40G, cluster nodes on dual 10G, 1558 MB/s on linear reads
Moving cluster nodes to 40G, client on 40G: 1864 MB/s
Moving client to 100G, cluster nodes on 40G: 3787 MB/s.
The confusing thing is, even 3787 MB/…

Ok - here's my #macOS (Tahoe) specific #steamcontroller #gaming #steam personal experience, having tried it out:
So - it works!
BUT
The setup process from Valve does you no favors. While their help guide (help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/) has a Mac specific setup section - the on-screen setup in the Steam client itself does not help out Mac users at all
The guide mentions you need to grant Steam "Input Monitoring" permission - but until I did this, Steam didn't even agree the controller was connected (via USB directly or via the Puck)
And then the second permission "Accessibility" was explicitly necessary if you wanted to do a mouse and keyboard game and it needed to move the cursor (I chose Scritchy Scratchy as a test for this specific reason, especially since they just added macOS support)
Another downside: the default keyboard and mouse layout for the controller maps shoulder buttons to scroll up and down - but only a single increment per press! I had to reconfigure it to enable turbo/repeated scrolling events.
(1/2)

This week on #ProFed: the web client has its first non-public page: the settings page, complete with login. It's also the first page that doesn't just display data but saves it too. Small step, but it means the full web client stack is now tested end to end.

#ComputerSupport #Parents
My elderly Mom uses #Thunderbird as her client for gmail. Yay for #SilverFOSS !
This is the second time it's become unusable.
The culprit? the same as the last time...she has an ungodly amount of emails open in tabs and it just crashes. Troubleshoot mode seems to get by that to let me 'Close Other Tabs' on a tab.
Boggles my mind it doesn't have some way to 'open clean' without loading the open emails...or at least a setting.
