How does this compare to mymind? I really really wanna stop paying for something I can absolutely self host especially since I have all the hardware and setup mostly done already with other things I selfhost.

I imagine most of these models have all kinds of nefarious things in them, sucking up all the info they could find indiscriminately.

This has got to be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard.

I’ve said this before…

toilet. camera.

ummm… no thanks

Well crap it was taken already…

Pointless and maybe a little reckless.

Drunkenslug and nzbgeek are my gotos. Technically you can run your own as well but it’s a PITA honestly.

Well… I guess you’re right … dang. 🤯

Don’t let AI generate recipes. Recipes are generally tried, tweaked a little, tried again, etc until it’s consistently reproducible, and well good. The AI recipes I’ve tried get proportions wrong, skips steps, has stuff cooked in the wrong order, etc. There is no trial and error or iterations.

Human bodies are terrible electrical power sources…even if you harvested all their metabolic heat or chemical energy, you would get far less usable electricity than a comparable mass of conventional fuel or batteries. Much more efficient ways to turn biochemicals or biomass into energy exist.

And to use us as batteries we need food. I would venture to say at least 99% or more of human food production requires sunlight. So just use sunlight for energy. No sunlight because of horrible nuclear winter or something else blocking the sun? Create satellites to collect it and beam it down with microwave lasers.

Anytime you convert a form of energy to another you lose energy. So sunlight->food->human->electricity is not only inefficient but dumb. An AI would never do this. The Wachowskis were writers, not scientists or engineers, and it shows. What would we be good at? The human brain is exceptionally good at massively parallel, low‑power pattern processing: recognizing, predicting, and adapting in complex, noisy environments. This sounds like the exact sorta thing you’d need if you were creating a virtual world. The trick would be getting the interface right. Assuming they had enough time that could be accomplished. So the whole reason the rumor of us being used as processors instead of batteries, is because it makes WAY more sense.

I love seafile. And if you need access on the main server there is a server-side FUSE filesystem which exposes all libraries at a mount point as a regular directory hierarchy.

Um … no thanks.

You don’t crush the robot revolution, in Russia the robot revolution crushes you, apparently by falling on you.

Or just give all your money away to poor people. By my calculations that would be about $25k per poor adult.

I was driving to the store on Sunday around 5:30ish and I wondered why it was so dark. That’s when it hit me. The only clock I have in the house that doesn’t set itself is the coffee pot and I rarely drink coffee.

Fuck Spez

And anytime a wall looked a little weird I’d be trying to smash through it.

I wish I could upvote this 100 times

I’m already on a bunch of lists. What’s a few more. I should collect them like steam cards.

Honestly I’d pay as much as $50 to unlock my Microsoft sync to CarPlay on my old explorer.
