Help/advise needed for ultrasonic humidifiers white dust problem

Hello people,

Indoor summer humidity in my city/apartment drops to 10% and my goal is to maintain at least 30–35%.

My first attempt was optimistic of buying desktop 3 liter humidifiers. Used to ran them 24x7 but humidity barely moved on my meter. Small tank required frequent filling and cleaning until I decided to go for larger humidifiers.

Second and current attempt was a replacement of small ones with three units of 25 liters each which helped me elevate indoor humidity to 25-27% level, still below my target but then I started to note some strange white-power all over the furniture, inside PC, on TV screens, even inside the glass bed of my scanner which is literally impossible to penetrate and impossible to clean unless I disassemble whole scanner to get under the glass.

A bit of Googling/Reddting reveal that tap water is the culprit (which is heavy) and many people suggested either going for "evaporative humidifiers" (something I didn't knew and it's too late anyways as I have invested $300 in 25L humidifiers). I noted some people suggesting the use of distilled water but it's not affordable in my case because I need 75 liters (25 x 3) water refill daily so my costs will just skyrocket.

I Googled and used GPTs to seek options and only cost effective outcome is under-sink RO system because according to these tools things like activated charcoal, descale resins, demineralization cartridges won't help, and so on. Now before I invest time, money and efforts in RO system, did anyone tried this solution or have some advise before I go for RO system?

Thanks.

EU Ultimatum to Antigua and Barbuda: Close CBI by June 1st, 2028

I have always called out not investing in random islands in desperation to have a travel document so here is goes:

The European Union intends to suspend visa-free access to the Schengen Area for citizens of Antigua and Barbuda if the country does not stop granting citizenship by investment. More: https://immigrantinvest.com/insider/antigua-keep-cbi/

Antigravity + Opencode + Local LLM = help me improve

Update: Forgot to mention that to be fair and support `opencode` I plan to upgrade to their $10 /month plan.

I have successfully setup a combo of Antigravity + Opencode + Local LLM but I still believe there is a room for improvement. Please share if possible:

  1. Ideas/tips to help me improve.
  2. How much this setup is helping me save cloud tokens? Since we don't know the exact Google AI Pro qu*ta in absolute terms.

Details are below:

  1. Setup MCP customization in Antigravity on Google AI Pro plan to share coding workload with Opencode (free plan) and Local LLM specifically the donkey work like searching and exploring local files, scanning logs, etc.
  2. I am using Ubuntu WSL on Windows 11 to run Qwen 3.6 via LLAMA.cpp with Opencode and Antigravity installed in Windows 11.

Most recent task:

Here is a summary of the token usage and division of labor:

1. Division of Labor

* Antigravity (Cloud - Google AI Pro): Acted as the Manager. Architected the solutions, researched repository structures, generated the revised implementation/verification plans, and wrote detailed orchestration instructions.

* OpenCode (Local Agent): Acted as the Implementer. Executed the multi-file coding task to modify flow.js and flow_panel.html under explicit manager guidelines.

* Local LLM (ask_local - Qwen 32k on RTX 3090): Acted as the Inspector. Used for git commit analysis, file content analysis, and log reviews, keeping mechanical token queries off the cloud.

2. Approximate Token Breakdown

* Antigravity (Cloud): ~18,000 input / ~2,500 output tokens (high-level reasoning & planning).

* OpenCode (Local): ~15,000 local tokens (code modifications and git staging).

* Local LLM (Local): ~12,000 local tokens (inspecting codebases, git history, and summaries).

By routing code analysis and implementation to ask_local and ask_opencode, nearly 60% of the total token volume was processed locally on your RTX 3090 instead of consuming cloud qu*tas (`f**k mods for blanket filtering this word`).

Monitor running in WSL:

OpenCode GO + Local LLM (Qwen 3.6 or better) with Google AI Pro

Hi,

I am a Google AI Pro user, thinking to supplement with OpenCode Go ($10 /month) and local LLM as I have RTX 3090 (24 GB) with 64 GB RAM, etc.

While working on a mid-sized project, I note that my Google AI Pro quota dries out while agents scans files, directories, log scans, etc. So I am thinking to use my hardware and run LLM using Ollama, let it help OpenCode Go while use Google AI Pro (Antigravity mainly) to do architect work:

>Architect/planner (Google AI Pro models) > OpenCode executioner > Local LLM helper

Has anyone done something similar? Please share some points. I have previously ran local LLMs for basic things like using as code assistant in Pycharm or use in browser automation, but have zero experience with OpenCode.

I am flexible to use Pycharm, Vscode, or Antigravity IDE.

Pointers would be helpful. Thanks

Example of how agents burn tokens:

I'll investigate the issue systematically. Let me start by understanding the codebase structure and then trace the custom columns feature and its impact on reports.

Let me search for the custom columns feature and understand how it was implemented:

Now let me look at the key files - the report service, config models, and the wizard service:

Now let me look at the report service and the report blueprint:

Now let me look at the views blueprint (which renders the report pages) and the ingest service (where custom columns are handled):

Now let me look at the report view template to understand how periods and segments are populated:

The periods and segments are loaded dynamically by reports.js. Let me look at that:

Now let me look at the segments API endpoint and the ingest service to understand how custom columns interact:

Now let me look at the wizard service and the wizard JS to understand how custom columns are added:

Now let me look at the ingest service to understand how TB and GL data are ingested and how custom columns affect things:

Now let me look at the wizard layout HTML and wizard JS to understand how custom columns are added:

layout.html#L90-889

layout.html#L750-830

Gemini AI Pro shit user considering Opencode

Hi,

I am just tired and hopeless on current state of Gemini, mainly Antigravity issues. Ever reducing quotas, buggy updates and so on (my recent issues here https://www.reddit.com/r/google\_antigravity/comments/1tx2oyn/antigravity\_20\_ui\_wont\_launch/)

I am considering solace in opencode paid plan $10/month. Please share experiences, quotas, integration with Pycharm or VS Code, and possibility of leveraging local LLM as I have quita powerful GPU (rtx 3090 24 gig, 64 gig ddr5 ram, etc)

Thanks.​

Antigravity 2.0 UI won't launch

Since recent update, AG 2.0 is not launching while AG IDE does. I have tried:

- adding `--ignore-certificate-errors` in target > properties

- deleting %appdata% > AG folder

- deleting `.cache` > AG folder

- uninstall > reinstall

Any ideas to try? Thanks.

How difficult/easy it is to run a DOO in Belgrade?

Hi,

My previous post about moving in and opening a DOO got much unexpected hate and eventual removal by the mods (for no reason given), anyways, I have some questions and would appreciate inputs:

  1. How difficult/easy it is to run a DOO in Belgrade in terms of bureaucracy and delays (if any)?
  2. Is it simpler to establish a DOO from scratch or find and buy an existing one in field of my interests?
  3. What pitfalls should I be aware of?

I will hire a lawyer or consultant but preparing myself to ask right questions when I meet them. I plan to start small and grow from there. For info, I only speak English and from Indian/Pakistani part of the world (hate me if it somehow makes anyone's day great).

Thanks.

Kanduras for Emiratis only on social media: Top UAE official explains reason behind move

Requesting all Emos to stop wearing jeans and formal western suitings... It affacts other's feelings. Based on below wisdom, I am just reversing the logic:

Quoting...
He elaborated on the rationale, emphasising respect for all nationalities while protecting the local identity. “You are presenting content and you’re from another nationality, it’s fine to wear your clothes, we respect that, absolutely. But it is not acceptable to affect people’s feelings when the person presenting this content is wearing Emirati attire and he is not Emirati."

Copilot in Excel doesn't show OneDrive files

Hi, I am stuck in this situation. MSCP is not showing my OneDrive files regardless I open Excel from Web Browser or via MSCP app or Excel 365 Desktop. I can't even upload content. Tried cleaning cache, sign-in/out and re-sign-in but it's not working.

I am on fully updated non-Beta channel with personal/family Premium account.

How this could be fixed? Thanks.

Complain about installing CCTV cams inside building lobbies

One of our paranoid neighbors have installed CCTV at his door but pointing at the door of other neighbors. Talking to him isn't helpful. Me and neighbors are disturbed, because if he wants to watch his house then point the camera at his door not ours.

Any ideas where to complain to?

حي مطار الملك خالد الدولي | King Khalid International Airport District

Hi / Salam,

I am thinking to move to recently built neighborhood حي مطار الملك خالد الدولي | King Khalid International Airport District.

Can anyone please share experience of living there? It's a bit far from city center, close to airport, but units are new, rents are very reasonable, and being new, I expect it to be very clean and peaceful.

One worry I have is the schools then occupancy rates, is it deserted or people started to move there? Thanks.

Copilot in PowerBI Desktop

Hi,

We have this Copilot thing in PowerBI, I have never been able to use it because my personal premium account is not eligible and when I sign-in using my work account, stupid IT guys have blocked/disabled the workspace preventing use of Copilot.

https://preview.redd.it/8yiuviud8yzg1.png?width=469&format=png&auto=webp&s=4442223b2b409bd5d5efd62d9d783dd70e4297a1

I want to ask real experiences if anyone could share. Does copilot only writes the DAX? Then what's the point, we can use any GPT to achieve the same or it also helps with suggestions/ideas to build dashboards/visuals.

Thanks.

D-Visa application, need invitation letter support

Hello people,

A random ask, flame me if it helps but I am going to apply for D-Visa but hit a bummer that my glorious current passport need an invitation letter *source of dafuq moment: https://welcometoserbia.gov.rs/detailed-information-on-the-visa-d-documentation

My purpose of visit is to open a D.O.O. and then apply for residency. Now I can do D.O.O. remotely on line BUT for residency, I must enter Serbia on D-Visa (not even C-Visa which does not require invitation letter) while my D.O.O. cannot invite me because I will be the CEO so a CEO who is currently "non-resident" can't invite himself to become a "resident" hence an individual or a business need to invite me.

While I know Internet is a wild west but I may find a gem so, can anyone connect me to a Serbian business or an individual who could do an invitation letter for me? I'll appreciate anyone may step forward in DM.

Thanks.

PS: Updated post to fix typing errors.
