I would agree with that, except I don’t want my electricity bill to go 50%+ for the same service and no choice of my own. That is the definition of stupid.

And finished his life due to it for those unfamiliar with the matter.


TBH if the same story had been told at the same pace as the first few seasons (and had actual consequences for dumb decisions), it could have worked.
I forced myself to rewatch it recently since someone at home wanted to and it certainly was a let down, but mostly because of how it was clearly rushed and turned into a Hollywood blockbuster. E.g. people charging into an army and surviving every time, which I know he was strongly against.
It felt like the broader strokes were there, but the show runners had no imagination of their own to make it flow properly, and might have kept more characters alive than needed to avoid upsetting fans instead of telling the story as it was meant to be told.


Why not see both as the stupid thing that they are?


That sounds wonderful, even the lonely part. I feel we don’t appreciate the valance that some time alone can bring since we are social (ish) animals.


Probably trained on JavaScript or some other weakly typed language with side effects and poor code. Or some meme from reddit:
3+2=5
“1”+5=15


While I don’t speak Chinese, I saw some comment mentioning that the protagonist of the apothecary diaries Maomao’s name means literally “cat cat”. She is latter called Xiaomao meaning something like little cat. I wonder if the first one had some similar roots to the way it is used in Thai meaning big cat 😺


Giving it too much credit by calling it AI. LLM auto complete seems more accurate.


For people living with others it might not be a choice though. The lights not working for a day the way they normally do is all it takes for someone to lose all faith in automation. It’s easier when you plan for a specific time and day to update things, as long as you are not exposed to the internet, slightly out of date apps are not a big worry


I get that, but the services listed by the other comment run just fine in docker with less hassle by throwing in some bind mounts.
The 4 VMs dedicated dockge instances is exactly the kind of thing I had in mind for people that want to avoid something that sounds more like work than a hobby when starting out. Building the knowledge takes time and each product introduced reduces the likelihood of it being completed anytime soon.


I would give docker compose a try instead. I found Proxmox to be too much, when a simple yaml file (that can be checked into a repo) can do the job.
Pay attention to when people say things can be improved (secrets/passwords, rootless/podman, backups), etc. And come back to them later.
Just don’t expose things to the internet until you understand the risks and don’t check in secrets to a public git repo and go from there. It is a lot more manageable and feels like a hobby vs feeling like I’m still at work trying to get high availability, concurrency and all this other stuff that does not matter for a home setup.
Don’t forget IoT, where the S stands for security! Or “The Cloud”! Make sure to rebuy the junk we will deprecate in 2 years time because we love electronic waste and planned obsolescence ;)
After getting a NAS to replace my raspberry pi 4 as a home server, I literally just SCPd the bind mounts and docker compose folder, adjusted a few env variables (and found out of a few I needed to add for things like the uid/guid the NAS used as default for the media user I created) and it took maybe 30 minutes total to be back and running. Highly agree with you from experience.


They are also way too small in terms of storage given that they don’t support external cards (Apple is similar). Google/Apple definitely want buyers to also buy their subscription storage services or pay the high premium for the next storage level.
I’m on an XR right now and it feels older, but still very much usable. I wish companies offered options to only get security patches instead of having to buy new phones every few years, that’s the 1 thing I hope Google keeps around and doesn’t walk back in the future.


Sounds like Microsoft had better lawyers and more foresight written on the contract and now OpenAI (ClosedAI soon from the sounds of it) is butt hurt they can’t get the company notorious for profiting from profiting.


The city is literally sinking, global warming is not helping and billionaires disproportionately contribute to it.


So fraud. It would be nice to get another FTX verdict at the very least. It could make those shit CEOs thinking twice before lying to peoples faces if it means years in prison.


I suppose I agree with your statement, but was just trying to (poorly) mention how it is sometimes hard to separate the company or product from the executive/CEO decisions.
OpenAI early investors that cash out win to be more precise.
