I'm always on the go, working from trains, light rails, cafes with bad internet etc.

iPhone hotspot is slow, unreliable and drains the phone's battery quickly

Luckily i'm in a country where a 600GB 5G plan costs the equivalent of 15$ a month, with 3$ per extra eSIM (watch/computer/car/whatever)

No cellular which is literally the only thing missing from the macbook pro :(

So cool. I've fired up pumas (energy monitor) and it seems to run almost fully on the neural engine and not the GPU so it plays really nicely with CoreML

Pre-AI internet data is like pre-war steel

The slop would multiply if we keep feeding it to new models in a loop

I don’t see this as an option in their website

You could theoretically ask “what is the next appropriate character?” and add the entire ascii charset but i doubt it’d work well and you’d be implementing autoregressive churn across network latency…

Probably a beken chip, should be easy enough to flash OpenBeken using the pins if they're exposed You can usually take over tuya devices if you sign up for a developer account and go some sort of verification process, it's pretty easy, sometimes it's possible to get a token for local control (tuya-local)

Their portal gave me a warm feeling of internet nostalgia Also the file claiming to be PDF while actually being DOCX is pretty amusing

I really like the improvements to satelite connectivity, brings us one step closer to a future where LEO broadband like Starlink/OneWeb is a commodity
