  • Advice requested: Repairing a mountain bike, can't calibrate rear derailleur

    Jump

  • We watched a bunch of youtube videos, and that's pretty much what we did. We took the chain off and with the cable disconnected, it's aligned with the smallest cog, and I can push it to the biggest cog but no further. Then we put the chain on and confirmed that. Then we cabled it, and we run into the 1-6 or 3-8 issue.

  • His policy on this sucks, but if he's the nominee, the effort is better spent trying to move his positions than poisoning him so we dive straight into a losing strategy in a 2-party system. I hate the game, but that doesn't mean backing a third party and convincing apathetic voters to stay home if he is the nominee would benefit vulnerable people. Rallying against Harris because she wasn't strong enough on Gaza explicitly harmed the people of Gaza. We need to learn from the lesson soaked in their blood.

  • Yes, and I actually use it to train a local llm so I'm not hammering the internet. I have a ton of storage, and like to keep my kids in the sandbox, so we have wikipedia, project gutenberg, kahn academy, and a bunch of others all hosted behind an apache reverse proxy which is using mellon so there's LDAP auth.

  • That makes sense, and we definitely jumped in headfirst with not enough research. Given what we're learning, I am going to have to replace the shifters, or the casette + derailleun, and the latter is probably better as a different derailleur will be more compatible with 3 gears in the front.

    This is where my research is failing, is there a reasonably priced recommended casette/derailleur I should look for? I don't know brands at all.

  • Hmm ok, the idea here is this is a "forever" project so I'm less worried about its utility for a kid and more want it to be something he is proud of as he grows up, and we own 10 acres up in the mountains where a mountain bike that can go the full range will get used. If we keep the casette and derailleur, how big of an issue do you think it will be if we don't swap the front gear? It seems the we are potentially talking a new derailleur and casette if we want it to stay 3x8.

  • With the cable disconnected it reached the high and low gear, but with the cable connected it only pulled far enough to go 6, we could physically pull the cable further to hit 7 and 8

  • We watched the whole video from Park Tool on the rear adjustment, and I know the set screws are set correctly. I did not see an explicit compatibility except that they are both microshift acolyte andy came up and his frequently bought together ad.

  • Yes, we can manually pull on the cable and get to last gears. I was thinking that the shifter maybe wasn't compatible, but nothing in the Amazon listings made me think it would be a problem. When we bought the second set, I was even looking for things like a distance in mm.

  • JUST IN: Iran Ends Direct Talks With US After Trump Threatens to Destroy ‘Whole Civilization’

    Jump

  • What do you suggest? I take pretty extreme "voting with your dollars" positions that have excluded me from a ton of social and family things. I have protested, taken days off work, marched, signed petitions. I've donated to progressive politicians, I've talked about what's going on to apathetic people to the point where they don't talk to me much anymore or ask to stop talking politics. Everything I've voted for has pretty much passed, and my representatives do the right things for the most part. I actively participate in a local network of people connecting resources to protect immigrants by hosting some services on my self-hosted network for people to organize on (I have personally sponsored meshtastic communicators and provided access to an anti-ice private channel).

    I'm pretty tired of doing what feels like a huge amount of effort, only to be told I should be doing something different or more. I fought so hard against the right, that the flanking snark attacks from the left and the implication that I'm somehow complicit by not doing enough or the right thing are driving me towards apathy. I'm fucking exhausted.

  • Even the local traffic cops have enough firepower to take down a village; the farce of a 2nd amendment does nothing against real tyranny, it's just for meatheads to injure themselves or their loved ones and oppress minorities when they get scared. I'm in California; all my votes go blue and are meaningless on the national scale. No amount of standing in front of buildings or blocking roads will make a dent in the capitol overlords that own the levers of accountability.

  • America’s Largest Public Hospital System Says AI Could Replace Radiologists

    Jump

  • I see it as bulk imaging goes through the ML, which flags things, orders additional more detailed targeted scans, and those elevate to radiologists.

  • America’s Largest Public Hospital System Says AI Could Replace Radiologists

    Jump

  • Devil's advocate...this is one of the few good opportunities for ML. If you train a model on a specific dataset with expert validation, this has the opportunity to save lives.

    First, radiology isn't one thing; different radiologists with different expertise looking at the same imaging can see different things. Second, there are not enough radiologists; my wife is an ER doctor who only does overnights and her hospital network has a central radiology center that reviews all films from all the hospitals, and it's always backlogged and waiting on results impacts outcomes in a real way. Third, there are simply human limits to what we can visually perceive, take a look at this study: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3964612/

    Radiological ML models could change healthcare. Imagine a world where part of your annual preventative care you go and get a full body CT. The ML model can compare your CT with references in your demographics AND your prior years, and find changes/issues before they're crises. That's simply not an amount of data analysis that could be done by an army of radiologists, and has the opportunity to spot things like tumors or organ swelling way earlier. I get that the late stage capitalism reality is "they'll use the data to farm money out of you" but from an actual technological standpoint, this could have real life-saving and improving implications for a lot of people and removes a huge bottleneck in healthcare.

  • It is bad and he needs to face consequences, but the headline made me think it was worse than it was. He was polite, and his team reacted stronger than he did. I wonder how much the suppression was his PR agency over him; when he was in the station and telling the officers he appreciated everything they do, that is as good as you can do in a situation like that. Drunk driving is inexcusable, but that is not a celebrity meltdown which is how it's being shared in a lot of headlines.
