I bought a Beelink PC for $125 off Amazon when I was considering an RPi. It's hooked up to my 65" TV. It runs plex, Youtube and Spotify and they is about all I want it for. I usually view 1080p movies but have done 4k without any

This isn't completely answering the question you asked but https://www.blackbox.ai/ was my favorite after testing out some free ones. I know I liked it better than TabNine, CodeGPT and Codeium in VS Code. I'm pret

Do you have the same empathy for lamp lighters? Would you have condemned electric street lights in favor for the sake of lamplighters and oil lamp makers having jobs?

Wow, from the article, it sounds rather damning. I wonder if that is the true course of events.

"like being honest and prompt with notification etc," On the Wyze subreddit, people have been griping about the fact that it took them days to even acknowledge something happened. When I read the Wyze email about it, there was no

Right, is it possible he was on wifi and not using end to end?

I thought I read another article that said it was caught because he was connected to and using the airport's wifi.

I like the way he comments on what he repos are. He types them as if he is standing over your shoulder, pointing at the screen and explaining them to you excitedly.

Could you link it here? It's hard to say without knowing what we are talking about.

Uh...correct. The computer tells you if it is possible. Isn't that the whole point of the exercise?

It depends on what you deem as a failure. We are talking buying something for about $13 US and reassembling it to theoretically up to about $17,600 US. Even if only, I don't know, 1/4 of the pieces are there, the potential to turn

I'm not sure what the "this" in "start this" is. What problem would you be solving or addressing for him?

Has the monetization been successful?

"Boring" just means it isn't a super sexy or exciting business idea. There's often a lower technical bar, but not always.
