So regular demotica/hone automation light switches it is

Light switches can also not be wifi. Hell, id personally prefer them not to

This is why i played around with mcp over the holidays. The fact its a standard to allow an ai to talk to an api is kinda cool. And nothing is stopping you from making the api do some ai call in itself.
Personally, i find the tech behind ai’s, and even llm’s, super interesting but companies are just fucking it up and pushing it way ti fucking hard and in ways its not meant to be -_-
Thanks for the info and ill have to look into those non-llm ai’s :)

Oh derp, misread sorry! Now im curious though, what ai alternatives are there that are decent in processing/using a neural network?

Debatable. The basics of an llm might not need much, but the actual models do need it to be anywhere near decent or usefull. Im talking minutes for a simple reply.
Source: ran few <=5b models on my system with ollama yesterday and gave it access to a mcp server to do stuff with

Derp, misread. sorry!

As much as i hate ai, and dont want it in any of my tools and programs, as a business it is a different thing.
I believe it is a bubble and it needs to burst so bad atm, but as a business you do not want to be left behind on the hype train. Its a risk you are taking if you dont, and that if the bubble doesnt burst ( which it might not ) your company is left in the dust and dies.

The more reasons i want it to pop, because businesses are not taking the risk (obviously) and its killing their program for me

And boooyyyy did it get worse haha

Tools are always useful. If its a good thing to (ab)use said tool depends on the tool and if its human or not :p
… And the job for the tool ofc

Alex horne? But why? Greg davies is so much better :')

Right, so basically he removed the software aspect in his tests which removes systems to protect the battery. I assume without them, it is damaging, like what great scott found.

Ye, he should have continued his experiments then!

Ok, before i watch the video, no damage is not what great scott found from his testings… ( https://youtu.be/iMn2yVoEqPs ).

so i have no idea what to believe anymore, but my (based) experience is that it does damage it. Ill have to watch later.

Imo there is a difference between script.kiddie and coding junkie

Its imo the difference between being a code junkie and a senior dev/architect :/

The benelux media tweakers.net has tested the failing ssd on linux, and yes it did fail there too. They were saying temperature might have been a factor since in windows the temperatures were higher than linux, but something was off ye.
If this is a case of prerelease firmware being shipped and killing it under load because of temps, thats baaaddd.

Ye derp, im used to 32, not 32k lol.

Cache man, its a fun thing. 32k 32 (derp, 32 not 32k) is a common cache line size. Some compilers realise that your data might be hit often and aligns it to a cache line start to make its access fast and easy. So yes, it might allocate more memory than it should need, but then its to align the data to something like a cache line.
There is also a hardware reasons that might also be the case. I know the wii’s main processor communicates with the co processor over memory locations that should be 32k aligned because of access speed, not only because of cache. Sometimes, more is less :')

Hell, might even be a cause of instruction speed that loading and handling 32k of data might be faster than a single byte :').

Then there is also the minimum heap allocation size that might factor in. Though a 32k minimum memory block seems… Excessive xD

The limitations isnt in the lpddr5x ram, but in the sodimm interface.

Iirc this was due to the design of the chip. Framework said the bandwidth needed for the strix halo is waaaaaaayyyyy faster than the bandwidth of the sodimms that laptops have.
Hence they made the desktop, only thing they could think of doing with those classes of apu’s

They made a new webcam , but im not sure if they shipped recent models of the 16 with the new webcam or if you have to buy the new module :/

The yoink is not needed. We have a policy to get a new laptop every 4 years. After that the laptop is all ours once formatted on site ( to make sure no company or customer details get leaked ). This is how my brother got my old dell xps, which he really needed for his education
Edit: apparently they are working on it, same with a case for the gpu to convert it into a e-gpu
