It's slower but more power efficient. I think only some form of onyx models are available and I couldnt get anything to run on the first gen NPU's in the 7940HS cpu.

I have a hugely integrated smart home. 2 rules; 1. Everything can still be manually operated in the way people expect it to. 2. Local only.

My kids love something like this we see every year at the traveling fair. It's the same idea but with rubber duckies floating around and having to catch them with a small pole with a hook attached. It's €20 for 2 kids to have 2 minutes of fun and the payoff is a €1 Aliexpress/Temu pollution generator disguised as a toy. They play with it for a day before it ends up in the trash.

The first few years I hated this for exactly the reasons you mention, but now I'm just happy they are happy. I think I have a few more years left before they don't want to go rubber ducky fishing with their dad no more and I doubt by then €20 gets me 2 minutes of joy with them.

It wouldn't accept it was the Glimmer model and I had to stop when I realized I was arguing with my GPU. Was a surreal moment, lol.

I worry about this myself but find some solace and peace in my backup strategy. I treat the harness as a user and set permissive authorizations where needed. I even let it suggest why and which permissions it would need for specific items and note these down in the wiki as well. The idea is that the LLMs takes into consideration why it has the permissions it has and doesn't try and work around them.

Local Qwen3.8 27B pointed to my local Silverbullet wiki coupled with a harness makes it so smart in my environment. It knows my network and homelab better than me. It can find things in an instant, troubleshoot problems on its own. Magic.

Deus Ex is such a sad story though. I really loved the first one but then was dissapointed by Invisible War. Fast forward a decade and there is Deus Ex Human Revolution which hit all the right notes for me. Fell in love with the series all over again. Mankind Divided was everything I wanted from the sequel until it just stopped. Read all the novels, even played The Fall and love everything about the universe. Shame how it died without a resolution to the Jensen story.

We Dutch just hate both. If I'm on bike I hate all car drivers. If I'm in car I hate all bicycle drivers.

This is how it starts my friend. Before you know it you have a lot of projects 90% done and living in production without ever getting the last 10% before you think of something new! Currently I'm refactoring a lot of homebrew ESPhome devices to use the ESP32-H2 as it supports Thread. This allows me to remove weak IoT SSIDs while expanding my Thread network node count for better mesh.

And I didn't even mind. Rather watch 15s of black screen than an obnoxious ad.

Wow, I remember specifically buying a sound card and CD-rom drive for my 486 so I could run the GB emulator. It wouldn't boot without a sound card and I really wanted to play the non-translated version of Pokemon Gold. People wouldn't believe me when I told them I had a newer Pokemon game than Red/Blue/Yellow.

In my case, co-pilot will be training on co-pilot code. I'm probably not alone so I don't think they're getting what they hope they're getting.

But the bad bacteria know how to tell me what to eat. The good ones never do!
