OnePlus has pretty much become irrelevant since Carl Pei left the company. Its more or less just a rebranded Oppo nowadays. I'm not an android user anymore but I'm rooting for his new(ish) Nothing company. Hopefully it carries the

I’m on Comcast and I strongly believe they’re selling my data to brokers from the targeted ads I see. I paid for WARP+ from cloudflare and the targeted ads dropped noticeably.

BMW had a heated seat subscription. This example is enough to explain why we have “smart cars”

While it sucks, I had great results replacing Sonnet 4.5 with GLM 4.7 in Claude code. Vastly more affordable too ($3 a month for the pro equivalent). Can’t say much about Opus though. Claude code forces me to put a credit card on file so th

Serious question, why is codex and mistral(vibe) not a real alternative?

Wow super fun read, I love how it went into the technical details. Any way to make it work with vscode?

First time I heard about DJI investing in Elegoo. That’s super interesting

I’m more curious how these “future” contract will work out. Supposedly, a bunch of RAM is paid and allocated for that isn’t even made yet. If the bubble ever pops, the collateral is going to be on the order of 2007 subprime mortgage crisis

Huh? 3D printers haven been cheap and reliable for a while now. You can get an Bambulab A1 mini for $200 USD and it’s a work horse. If things break, get a new part online from them and it’s usually plug and play. I’m north of a thousand hou

Hoping a 30-A3B runs circles around a 117-A5.1B is a bit hopeful thinking, especially when you’re testing embedded knowledge. From the numbers, I think this model excels at agent calls compared to GPT-20B. The rest are about the same in ter

I find GLM models so good. Better than Qwen IMO. I wish they released a new GLM air so I can run on my framework desktop

I used to think similarly as well. But realistically speaking, the military weapons and civilian weapons are just too far apart nowadays. The military would absolutely smoke us compared to the intent when it was written into the bill of rig

Fun read! How long does the script take to run? I’m curious if you would have noticed any performance increase if you wrote it in C++.

While bitchat was originally iOS only during release, they released the Android version shortly after https://bitchat.free/ (scroll down)

Whoa, I was just mentioning in another post how I have my family member install bitchat just in case for emergencies. This is a very interesting alternative. With a travel router, I can significantly expand the chat radius compared to bitch

Is there something similar for STT? I’m using whisper distill models and they work ok. Sometimes it gets what I say completely wrong.

I think I get what you’re trying to say but realistically, it doesn’t add up. The draft was 33 years. The US is only 250 years old (give or take) so over 10% of our history had conscription. The Vietnam and Korean War was widely unpopular b

Hmm interesting, what is the American way? We had conscription between 1940-1973. What makes it non American?
229.
by syntaxing 9mo ago
Are you talking about the US? If so, I heard this proposed on a podcast “Grey Area”. Mandatory two year draft for all, regardless of gender. It sounds crazy at first but it kind makes sense the more you think about it.

Interesting idea. I think the Jetson Orin Nano is a better purchase for this application. The main downside is the RAM is shared so you lose about 1G from the OS overhead.

Interesting! I always just assumed sites used geoDNS to figure out where the user is. I like the "Controversy over lack of support" section in the wikipage. I've been mainly using NextDNS and learned that they anonymized this

Wouldn’t most of the savings be done on the server side anyway? I would be very surprised if Claude code does those on the client side.

While Anthropic can choose whatever tool uses their api or subscription but I never fully understood what they gain from having the subscription explicitly only work for claude code. Is the issue that it disincentivizes the use of their API

I’m on Comcast with a UniFi cloud gateway max with my DNS pointed towards adguard. I have not noticed any rate limiting. I actually don’t know how they would rate limit against DoH.

Nope, not sarcastic. Would love to know where my understanding is incorrect!

That’s really weird that’s the case. DNS simply resolves “google.com” to an IP address (8.8.8.8 or something). Shouldn’t impact anything download related. I’m pretty sure DNS isn’t used for geolocating either

Unfortunately as you said, the range is abysmal since it uses BLE. It’s barely enough for a box store but it’s better than nothing. I like the idea of the lilygo pager too. I first thought it was e-ink from some of the pictures but sadly it

Recently downloaded bitchat so I can contact my family members if outages like this happen when we’re out and about. I got a few T1000 cards for meshtastic but there’s just too much friction to teach my spouse and others how and when to use

I’m somewhat surprised you’re still using your ISP’s DNS when there’s ton of better free or paid options.

I’m 100% on the same boat. The only competitor I can see is Amazon Leo. Having options is great but they both suck.
