A tractor is still something on my list I want. I think I’d only ever be able to afford a old one like yourself and I imagine the relationship with the tractor to be adversarial at all times. Never use it until you need it and then you have to fight with it to work.
I meant more or less don’t buy a WiFi garage door opener that sends data off to your servers install a ZigBee switch yourself.
I do not care to reread my long over opinionated posts they’re full of spelling and grammatical errors.
You want to look into frigate, and you don’t need much of a graphics card. You could use a old gaming PC with a gtx 1060 from 10 years ago.
There’s cameras with tensor cores in them too. I only played around with the pi ai camera but frigate uses the same yolo models. so you can have your camera process the image detection or the server’s GPU.
It doesn’t take as much as you think. Its when you want to generate content that its important you need lots of vram or cram the entire model into context.
I am the biggest ai hater I know but local models, and old school ai technologies before LLMs are pretty cool.
I like how they are trying to drag down other platforms with them. Not that they don’t deserve it, just shows they really do stop at nothing to tarnish their name at every turn.
Just fucking take the slap on the wrist, apologize and lie and say you’ll do better like every other corperation and maybe people will at best forget about you.
This is the way to go. Once you get a stand up air compressor that spits out enough cfm its a real game changer. I don’t even have that many air tools outside of nail guns. Just having solid air for dusting made it worth while for me. I’ll get distracted for hours using my tornado air whip and airsolizer.
Hardwired tools are generally better in both terms of performance and reliability. If you really want get Amish about it you can convert a lot of eletric tools into gas tools and buy them like that.
That being said I will still grab my ryobi battery power tools before anything else.
Before you buy anything make sure you research it first. Start buying things that you own the infustructure for. Don’t buy a 3d printer that doesn’t support Linux, or buy a 3d printer that won’t be effected by the 3d printing laws that try to stop gun parts from being printed.
That logic should apply to everything. If you are buying a IP camera make sure to get one that does PoE and doesn’t connect and ping hone to a server before sending you your data. Don’t buy a WiFi garage door opener unless you installed the ZigBee switch yourself. You should aim to be able to do everything yourself without needing subscription models or useless internet of things devices.
Things you likely want now before they get further ruined:
A google pixel phone to flash and de google.
A car before ~2013 that you plan on learning how yo repair when it breaks down.
A AMD based PC with a a 16gig GPU. Thats like the absolute lowest end you can use LLM’s and defuision models locally that don’t completely suck ass. And if you’re not much of a gamer or desktop user you can turn this PC into a server and run your own services in docker so you reduce your dependency on apps.
Its only bad once it takes the form of Communism/socialism.
Lol.
I had vr in the semi early days and I know that feeling. There was really something special about just the scale and perspective that brings child like wonder.
I would love for a second wave of vr games to become popular but if that would of happened it would of happened through meta because they have the actual sales numbers to support it somewhat.
I don’t think enough people are going to buy the steam frame and inspire a second big wave of vr devs. Its going to help the older games get a short burst of sales and those devs will just have to make a patch to be playable on the frame.
I think at most the frame will do decent, but more importantly all the work that went Into fex/lepton will get fleshed out more and more to the point you are playing full PC games on your phone.
In my opinion the steam frame is a wash and I want it only as a steam fan boy. I’d still get it if it was going to be cheap but with how thongs are going I just don’t see it being a success. I can’t justify spending 1200+ USD on something to play a unsupported/abandonded 20 dollar game from 8+ years ago. And there’s only maybe 3 games I see as worth while, and aren’t just a tech demo like the walking the plank simulator.
The only thing I can see being a turning point is if there was a way to convert games into vr kind of like that unreal engine mod. And that would have to be universal and easy to use like proton is.
I’m not sure I even really want one. Not much in terms of software once meta started buying all the game companies and shutting them down.
You will be able to run both PC versions of games, and the arm apks similar to what the meta headsets use. It will also do streaming really well.
I make an exception for Minnesota.
I’d actually be okay with texas breaking off to do their own thing, so they can build a million data centers with their shitty power grid, only to regret it when the next mild winter hits.
Then they can do their Republican version of sharia law where they hunt down any female who has a penis or an aborted baby with flock cameras and bounty hunters. Oh and the armed masked unmarked millitas roaming the streets to fill detention centers like its some third world country that has CIA backed insurgencies.
I’m all about that life
Yeah, you are right and I know it. I more or less don’t trust that to happen though.
Literally the only way they can make any of this right when the bubble pops and shit starts hitting the fan is public execution.
Musk, bezos, Altmann, zuckerman, etc.
Nothing they do short of that is going justify all the damage they caused to the world, I don’t think we will be able to move past it unless they where executed, or at the very least have to spend 5 counts of life time sentences in solitary confinement with no parole, work release, etc.
I can only hope the west gets absorbed by Canada and labled a new terrority of cascadia. Anything east of that mountain range can get fucked.
Maybe 40 minutes.
Saudi Arabia is our ally who helped coordinate 9/11.
The Saudis only want ea for the kernal level anticheat in ea games.
Which is odd because we are considering banning tencent due to these concerns.
F2p cow boss would of been a better goal. Short quest all done in lumbridge, I killed the cow on a account with 1 attack 1 def 40 str and was using goblin cannon as a weapon.
Anything worth while takes effort
