  • Im pretty skeptical of any “will be common by 2030” or well see this in a “year or two.”

    There are dozens, if not hundreds of “humanoid” robot startups out there, some with billions of investments and very impressive videos, but not even 1 model for sale anywhere from anyone that fits this niche.

    Id throttle back on the timelines and expectations a ways. I did appreciate that this video looked real time and sounded like actual audio, so its main robot was very slow and had loud actuators. Most of these slick videos are sped up and have no real sound. I appreciate their honesty, but most people likely wont want that repetitious noise happening in their home all day, especially for very slow task completion at a cost around $30-150k, with likely $$$ monthly subscriptions.

    Still likely a huge market for the above in assisted living to start, especially with the lack of care workers due to high stress and abysmal pay, but “common by 2030” isn’t super likely.







  • That’s a pretty good methodology. Threads are still distinct, but all on the same page at least. Hopefully lemmy can implement something similair.

    I would reduce the distinctiveness of the threads, personally. Lemmy/reddit/etc commonly have separate subthreads on the topic same page, so its not like it needs to be a prominent feature that each subthread is from a different comm. Note it maybe, but less prominent seems better.




  • Look into podman quadlets. Its containers as systemd services, and its excellent. They run as root by default, but can be run at a user level pretty easily. Ive had no permissions issues as long as you define the user/group in the config and ensure they habe the correct rights to the required folders.

    It does take translation from docker compose files, but it’s entirely doable. Most of the environmental variables translate straight across.










  • SpaceX isn’t an Uber model, its a goverment leech model. It’s had heavily, heavily goverment subsidies to the tune of 18 billion dollars over its 10yr lifetime.

    Terminal prices are likely just an economy of scale issue. Much cheaper per unit to make 100,000 than 1,000. Im sure as eutelsat grows the prices will come down.

    If Eutelsat and the EU rocket program get 18 billion in goverment investment like SpaceX, im betting they can also accelerate all of the above.

    SpaceX doesnt have a moat, it just has the lead. Rocket labs in new Zealand is already hot on their tails. No reason the EU cant join or surpass them.
