Very! I can consistently reach D2, though only barely and with a lot of air and not a lot of volume. If I had a lot of alcohol and/or not a lot of sleep the night before, I can *sometimes* reach C2, but it's rare.
I once sang with someone who could reach G1 (not a typo). Now *that* was impressive. And beautiful.

I can reach E4 without warm-up. With warm-up I can get a little bit higher than that, sometimes up to G4.
I however did not say it was easy, nor that it is something I can sustain for long stretches of time without hurting my throat 😉
@bytebro
Well during my recent audition I got to F above middle C without resorting to falsetto, which when the conductor told me (I don't have absolute pitch) surprised me, but only a bit.
Would have been able to get a bit higher but that probable would've hurt my voice so I didn't

GCC at the time was thought of as something no volunteer could build.
They did it anyway.
There is nothing inherent about the technology behind LLMs that can't be built by a sufficiently determined group of volunteers.
The fact that current LLMs require whole data centres to run has more to do with (a) the fact that companies take performance shortcuts because they have money to burn and it takes them to market faster,

I mentioned it in the post, but: 2nd bass, ever since I was 18 or so.

Ooohh, can I join the club? Been in choirs since I was 16, almost continuously until my early 40s, went on a break 'for a few months' after my Intercontinental move that ended up being 7 years...
2nd bass at scct.co.za since a few months now and loving it!

My introvert 19yo daughter has been accepted for a student exchange program in #exeter university (Health & Life Sciences) in 26Q3 but has cold feet due to rumors it's a posh, partying and racist place.
Anyone know anyone who could comment on how #ExeterUni is like nowadays (as opposed to 2018 when there was a public racist issue in a student chat group)?
(boosts help reach so they are greatly appreciated)
You are aware that there's a rust frontend to GCC in progress, right?

I misread something just now as "enshitticanoe" but I think maybe I'll keep it.
An apparent North Korean worker was caught visibly stumped during a remote job interview when asked to insult the country's leader. https://techcrunch.com/2026/04/06/watch-this-video-of-how-a-job-interviewer-exposes-a-north-korean-fake-it-worker/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Is nextcloud actively engaging with governments to try and promote what you do? If so is there anything public on that that I can read?
Oh my.
In my case the problem was "your prepaid data bundle was supposed to be activated but it wasn't and now my 50-something megabytes of data usage was charged by the megabyte which cost me nearly 30 euros".
It took only a few minutes to get an actual human on the line, then a further few minutes for her to confirm and fix on their side and refund me 30 euros, so at least there was *some* competence there...
Yeah, there isn't a packages.debian.org equivalent, indeed extrepo search is your best bet.
