I would also note that for people who want to download these models, you can find MLX versions of just about everything popular on huggingface these days. For instance go look at the "main" …

I still am not quite sure what value something like Plex offers for my personal HTPC media needs. I have a large collection of disk space that's an SMB file share on my local LAN, on a server in …

> - PCs destroyed minicomputers. What's weird is that with "store your everything in the cloud and pay a monthly recurring subscription", we have now regressed to a 1960s/1970s …

It's not, really, it's a basic commodity CPU with some RAM for the purposes of running the OS and management plane, glued to a layer 2 switch chip by a very narrow bandwidth path. A mikrotik…

Reading the title, for a moment I thought this would be something about a LoRA serial data bridge over RF and an actual physical wall clock, possibly some novel new homebuilt piece of hardware to disp…

Re: the moist towelettes, I love that the person who runs this website hasn't seen any need to change the HTML design since probably 1997. See also, matchbook and matchbox museum: https:/…

I've had supposedly credible professional network engineers send me their PRIVATE ssh keys for access to something more than once. As a response to "please send me your ssh key for access to…

> The little print at the end says "Currently only available in India." I think that was made obvious by the big thing on the marketing website scroll about checking cricket scores.

I really would question any "professional" network engineer that can't tell the difference between a switch and a router... https://mikrotik.com/product/crs305_1g_4…

I've always wondered about these when I see bars in tiny towns in rural parts of WA, OR, ID because the only way to get home is to drive drunk (I seriously doubt that the locals are organizing …

> My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? Thi…

GLM5.2 being released is also likely a factor

Given the tiny size of this, I wonder about possible future integration with esphome compatible hardware https://esphome.io/ …

But should it be? Verisign having control over it is a weird historical artifact of the early days of the internet.

The anonymity of people giving aggressive and confrontational "answers" to a question reminds me of: https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2004/03/19/green-b…

Multiple times now in this thread you've parroted "might makes right" as if it's some universal axiom or law of physics (such as gravity, or the speed of light). This is what you a…

Take a look at the list of new generic TLDs that are run by Donuts LLC now Identity Digital, a US based company. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_Digital …

I mean he's probably fine as long as he does absolutely nothing to challenge the status quo or anyone powerful in India. Which doesn't really seem like an optimal situation for a censorship …

I work for an ISP and we host several LGBTQ activist sites and non profits, does the Ugandan government have jurisdiction over the company I work for because the content is illegal in Uganda? I'm…

Was anyone who broke the law in texas ? It's a euro porn site publishing content on servers outside of Texas. With a domain name whose ultimate root is a company in Virginia. The fact that veris…

The best possible use I can think of for one is disassembled and with just the screen and motherboard, running something like a full screen browser that auto refreshes a certain web page like the weat…

So as I said, the matter gets escalated to a federal court. Texas law enforcement doesn't get to just roll into another state and start grabbing servers. Nor is another state likely to obey such …

If this was true in factual implementation, then Washington state's assault weapon ban would apply nationwide, which it decidedly does not. Or some particularly red state laws on abortion bans or…

> Even better would be for a trusted non-profit to run this, like the EFF or the ACLU. You're seriously proposing that organizations along the same general lines as the EFF or ACLU would be ok…

Correct, I was referring to the websites that have implemented only the most basic fig leaf of legal compliance (ca. 2001 era HTML popup of "are you over 18?") to be able to browse the produ…

Your .IN domain is probably one of the worst possible choices of all ccTLD to claim that you can publish things on it without fear of reprisals or censorship, be assured that something bad would happe…

It also makes complete and total sense that you can sell your body by joining the Marines as an 0311 MOS rifleman/grunt on your 18th birthday, but you're going straight to hell if you have a…
