Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Recently started jogging 30 minutes twice a week. When does it stop feeling like I'm dying?English
4·2 days agoIf I had to guess, you’re in need of building up your aerobic base. To do this you’re going to want to aim for having more time on your feet, which of course is tricky since it feels so heavy for you at the moment (I’ve been there).
The key insight for me was that I needed to decrease my intensity during runs. 80% of your runs should be at an easy pace, which is defined as a rate of perceived exertion (RPE) of 4/10 or less.
When I started adopting this, it felt like I was running at an annoyingly slow pace. For some people, it might even mean that you don’t run continuously during your sessions, and instead do a mix of running and walking (X minutes on, X minutes off).

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•I have never created a ChatGPT accountEnglish
2·3 days agoSomeone may be using a form of identity theft to use ChatGPT in your name … likely because they ran out of free tokens for their own account and did this instead of paying for more.
That seems a bit nonsensical to be honest. Why go through the bothersome process of hijacking an email when you can create an unlimited amount of emails for free?

AI@lemmy.ml•Making Claude talk like caveman to cut 75% of tokensEnglish
5·5 days agoIt’s likely that you’ll get reduced performance from this, as blowing up the token count is part of getting a marginal amount of increased performance out of the models.
Funny though, as is most discoveries related to emergent LLM properties

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•For those of you with a living room or multiple rooms; do you have a TV in your bedroom? Why or why not?English
1·6 days agoI used to have a TV in my bedroom a very long time ago, but it had very negative impacts on my sleep. I can’t recommend it.

91·7 days agoMost hardware is only really true if you account for older hardware in circulation, most new hardware will be shipping hardware decoder support for AV1.
On top of this, the software decoder support is remarkable for AV1,
libdav1dis a marvelous piece of software, bringing access to a plethora of devices lacking hardware decoder support.

32·7 days agoThis is only really true if you have extreme throughput requirements, a regular VOD operation can get by fine on software encoding.
If you have the kind of throughput needs that warrant hardware encoders you’re going to want to go ASIC anyway, so regular server hardware won’t cut it. Like YouTube for example had to build their own ASICs because of the downright absurd scale they are running at

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you carry in your pockets or with you daily?English

21·7 days agoIt depends on what the receiving unit can decode. Sometimes there will be transcoding, but it’s usually something you want to avoid.

3·8 days agoHm, maybe the next best thing is to figure out what kind of groupset you have on your bike - that way you can determine what kind of chain you need for replacement.
You’ll need a tool to make the chain the correct size after you’ve bought it though, so maybe bringing the bike to the shop is the way to go however

11·8 days agoHardware encoder support I think is generally less critical. Decoding is the process that needs to happen real-time, while most encoding can be done far in advance, unless you’re live broadcasting or operating at YouTube-scale.

3·8 days agoNow how do I know what chain to use?
Same model as you have now should do the trick. Ask at your local bike shop when in doubt, they will be able to find out for you

78·8 days agoAV1 already wins handily as a codec, and the only thing keeping it from being adopted more broadly than is currently the case is lack of hardware decoders on older hardware. This problem naturally solves itself as old hardware gets replaced.
Even then, dav1d is a remarkable piece of software, and software decoding is pretty viable for AV1 thanks to it. Many places have already adopted AV1, and you should expect to keep seeing it get adopted as time goes on.

Europe@feddit.org•How Sweden’s communal laundries shield renters from rising energy billsEnglish
7·8 days agoCommunal laundry rooms are better for spreading the capital costs among the residents - energy still costs more or less the same on a per-load basis, and it gets charged to the residents in one way or the other at the end of the day.
They’re also successively being replaced by in-home laundry machines. Lots of places offer a communal laundry room, but the residents also have a machine in their homes for the sake of convenience. Some new builds have started omitting a communal laundry room in favour of in-home machines.
A bit of a pity, to be honest. Spreading capital costs is societally good. I say this while having had a laundry machine in-home for the past 10 years (came included with the purchase of the apartments), which I do use and enjoy the convenience of.
