No reason a car can't still be on the road 100 years after manufacture

Tuning into time radio signals like DCF77?

Apparently the Force Majeure section of the deal is very weak, so if there's the slightest upset, they get out of that.

A single 6MHz channel at the top end of UHF band would be enough to implement a universal cellular telephony service - simple calls and texts - at very low cost if phones had modems for it. I think that would be the better use of spectrum.

It's not a great UI, but for messing with ideas in a VM, the free tier is very hard to beat, otherwise I'd be on Claude Code, but still on a VM, because I won't let them near anything I actually care about.

Easiest to use when sshing into a VM.

I was inspired by that post also, got a Qwen Coder 1.5B up to 27tok/s prompt eval and 13tok/s decode on an e5-2650v2 inside a GNOME box

I aspire to someday move up to an AM5 system, but for now, the Dell T3610 has to do everything. Might get a second GPU for it though.

Or watch and wait as models get denser

I've been watching and waiting for this, interested to see how smart it is, as it fits with my interest of getting the smartest possible model running in 10GB of VRAM (RTX3060 that has to drive 2 monitors and run an llm)
