A phone CPU challenging a top of the line desktop GPU is crazy.

I hope the latter.

The food in couche tard is just so uninspiring. Not downright terrible, but pretty overpriced for what they are.

Homicide rate in Winnipeg is 5/100k: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=3510007101&pickMembers%5B0%5D=2.2&cubeTimeFrame.startYear=2020&cubeTimeFrame.endYear=2023&referencePeriods=20200101%2C20230101

Definitely much worse than being in Poland, where the rate is 0.68, one of the lowest in Europe.

This attack comes less than eight months after another incident where a Ukrainian newcomer was stabbed and killed on his way to work at the corner of Talbot Avenue and Watt Street, several blocks from where Sokolova was attacked.

I'm starting to think those attacks could be ethnically-motivated. Especially asking if they are Ukrainian before attacking. I wonder if the two events are connected.

Tbh this is probably for things like DLSS, captions, etc. Not necessarily for chatbots or generative art.

Yeah I forgot Manitoba was mostly relying on hydro!

I don't think it's fair to look at Canada as a monolith. Quebec is generating most of its energy from hydro, whereas Ontario relies on a well established nuclear energy infrastructure. Provinces that need to change are Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta.

Edit: Manitoba actually relies on hydro for 97% of their usage. So correction: only Alberta and Saskatchewan!

Might look good, but with price of mobo and ram it's not worth it (i.e. might as well spend more to get a better CPU).

Yeah with a docker container running 24/7 and a phone app it's much better. they also have a setting where deleted files on phone are simply moved to archive on the server.
