I mean, it’s still missing a bunch of important info, it’s just that it’s not saying anything incorrect necessarily. In general anyway I’d just always steer clear of LLMs though regardless of the situation.

As someone who actually knows a thing or two about automatic watches, I decided to give it a read. While the info is actually not as awful as I thought (no hallucinations surprisingly), I still would not recommend it as a guide, even if it were written by a human. Especially this part:

2.  Demagnetize:
If your watch suddenly starts running fast, have it demagnetized.

While, yes, a magnetized movement will cause it to suddenly run fast, demagnetizing a movement isn’t completely harmless. If you’re wrong and the movement isn’t magnetized and instead a different type of damage, attempting to demagnetize it will actually magnetize it, and the combination of a magnetized movement plus whatever other damage caused the movement to run fast suddenly could be far worse. I think an added disclaimer would be helpful here. There are ways to test if a movement is magnetized, that should be mentioned. Blanket recommending demagnetizing a movement without a disclaimer is dangerous. I know this is written by AI and not a human but that part really bugged me.

Touché.

For the bedroom, a baby monitor makes sense. Not sure why you need one connected to the Internet though.

I’m not very techie at all but after using some guides I learned how to dual boot and distro hop. I’m now all in on CachyOS and have been super happy with it. Ditched windows for good a few months ago.

+1 for CachyOS, I’ve been running it for a few months now and it’s my new favourite. I’ve run Mint, Ubuntu, and Bazzite but none of them felt right to me. Cachy has been great since day one. I mostly use it for gaming but also like to do non-gaming tasks too and it handles it all very well and very quick and smooth.

You can get a used Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Tourbillon for around 30k at the low end I think. Not saying JLC is the cheapest on the market (it’s definitely not) but they’re excellent watches without being too bloated in price for what you get. I’m sure brand new is a bit more expensive but if you can get a JLC for a third of the price, that’s saying something.

I mean, at least it has an expensive complication that somewhat justifies its price? Not that a tourbillon is worth 100k but it is still a very expensive complication. I wouldn’t put it past these guys to sell a quartz watch for 100k.

Not super important but just to say, Rolex is far more expensive than these. The most expensive option for the Trump watch is still cheaper than the cheapest model of Rolex. And that’s assuming you can even buy it at retail value, which is impossible in most places. Most jewelry stores won’t sell you a Rolex unless you have purchase history with them, and as such used prices are often way higher than brand new.

Vintage is a different story, some cheaper vintage Rolexes can go for under 5k (and some rare ones can be exponentially more expensive too), but if we’re talking new, they’re all more expensive than these Trump watches.

We need a name for lemmy users running arch on their pc that they’re using to watch stuff on their Jellyfin server

+1 to that. I’m not very tech savvy and I could figure it out with a couple YouTube tutorials.

You can tell I’m very Canadian because I read NB as New Brunswick and was very confused for a minute. Non-binary makes a lot more sense in context.

If you’re actually serious, and if you fall into the LGBTQ+ umbrella, you may be able to come to Canada as a refugee.

I’m not sure if the USA qualifies yet, but I read they’re working on it. That may be in effect already, I’m not sure.

I’m getting the same scores/results for Safari + uBOL and Orion + uBO but I’ll stick with safari for a bit just for a change in pace.

That was my reminder to update my system. Thanks!

I’ll test out Safari + uBO for a bit and see if I prefer it. Do you have any sites you can check for how good your adblocker is? I used to use one but that was ages ago, I don’t remember the name anymore.

That app doesn’t work with the current version of safari. This is what I see when trying to enable:

“uBO Lite” is not supported by this version of Safari.

I’ve been using Orion with uBlock and have been satisfied the last few months.

uBlock Origin is also available on iOS/iPadOS but only through the Orion browser. It would be nice if other browsers figured out how to allow Firefox extensions too but so far it looks to just be Orion.

I’ll check that one out, thanks for the link!

I’m going to have to try that. I don’t ever buy mineral water (or any water, my tap works just fine and fuck the bottling industry), but I might have to make an exception and give it a try. I’ll usually add just a touch of water in my whisky and scotch, so maybe I’ll try mineral water next time. I drink more in the winter so it’ll probably be a bit before I give it a shot, but I’ve saved your comment for future reference. Thanks for the recommendation.

I own an M1 MacBook. I don’t use it nearly as much as my main pc (gaming laptop with CachyOS (Arch-based, btw)) but it’s very well built and is well optimized. If I could get the build of a MacBook but with the specs of my gaming pc without spending 2x the price as I would on a pre-build windows machine I would absolutely do it.
