You realize the models you’re running locally had to be trained the same way as the proprietary ones, right?

They basically skipped cards and moved from cash to app transfers. QR code is a natural extension of the app to make contactless payments accessible.

I bet I could come up with some contenders… I won’t though, because I hate that M$ controls the major open-source repository.

I’m one of those. I have a phone, but use it rarely. On the other hand, the tablet is always at the ready. I’ve only ever wished I could put it in my pocket and ditch the phone. My brother has the Fold 3 and it’s intriguing, but my tablet has almost double the screen size and a more common aspect ratio. The new tri-fold actually looks quite promising, if only it could support a pen (which is a silly wish for a plastic screen).

I’ll do one better: UniGetUI. It handles Chocolatey, Winget, Python system packages and even other managers. All in a neat UI, nice search, auto updates.

The requirement for Recall is a neural coprocessor with substantial performance, specifically to be able to run the model locally.

I collect unfinished projects.

Getting a used mid-range printer is quite affordable. Or try looking for your local maker space, so you don’t have to buy your own. It’s never been easier to get into 3D printing than today.

Also, it’s quite easy to sell custom 3D prints. Thus it’s not that hard to cover the cost of materials (or even the printer itself).

I hate using Excel for this reason. ALMOST all functions are translated, so you’re never sure what to look for. If you find a solution for a problem online? Doesn’t work, you’d have to rewrite it in your language. And you can’t even switch the language in settings, because it’s tied to the OS language (maybe you can in recent versions, haven’t bothered to check for a while).

There’s OSTRAJava, a parody esoteric language based on a very specific regional accent of the Czech language.

Teaching programming for kids, 3D printing, photography, playing the saxophone, gaming (pretty much exclusively coop), playing board games.

Hi, I found the game giveaway post. I’d love to give Super Cable Guy a try with my friend. Thanks for the giveaway!

I know it’s not a good advice, but having something very serious happen in your life might shift your perspective. In my case, getting (through) cancer made me realize it’s not worth stressing for stupid little things and greatly deepened my stoicism.

Always check Twitter, Fox News, and ask ChatGPT. Am I doing this right?

They don’t want you to see the tiny people doing all the hard work licking.
