  • I mean the automatic speech recognition and transcription capabilities are quite useful. But that’s about it, for me for now.

    It could be interesting for frame interpolation in movies at some point maybe, I guess.

    I dream of using it for the reliable classification of things. But I haven’t seen it working reliably, yet.

    For the creation of abstracts and as a dialog system for information retrieval it doesn’t feel exact/correct / congruent enough to me.

    Also: A working business plan to make money with actual AI services has yet to be found. Right now it is playing with a shiny new toy and the expectations and money of their investors. Right now they fail to deliver and the investors might get restless. Selling the business while it is still massively overrated, seems like the only way forward. But that’s just my opinion.





  • The h4 already can be a managed switch itself (2" 2,5gbit + 4*1gbit with the nic addon.) if you want it to be one. Linux as the host OS (VLANs, bridges) - netplan works well for me. Some VMs and containers on top (lxd, incus, some use proxmox) for router/ firewall/ vpn-gateway (opnsense, ipfire,…) and other functionality which you don’t want to run on the host OS directly. The cpu is fast enough to run all your services at once. It all comes down to RAM.

    IMO there is not one right way. It all depends on what you want to achieve. Also a lot depends on, whether you want results fast or if you enjoy the tinkering while learning.



  • Pictures of cats are always appreciated. Dash does it right. :)

    I always struggle with the date components sort order: month, day, year. They need to be in ascending or descending order. But that’s just me.

    And then I try to stop myself from thinking too much about years, months, days and hours having inconsistent lengths - forced by celestial mechanics. And the lack of a consistent number system: Sometimes it’s decimal - because that’s the way it was done in the 1800s and 1900s. Sometimes the base-60 system is used - which is rumoured to stem from the babylonian times or before (Sexagesimal). And someone put the 2*12 for 24h clock on top of it, because… I don’t know. And after all, where does the 7 day week come from? 7?

    To my surprise the 24h system is not a modern invention because of digital clocks. And in the medieval ages some people used to start their clock at sunrise not midnight. Huh. 24h clock.

    Let’s not start with the the AM/PM system where they start counting with 12, 1, 2,… because that’s how a clock face is built and there is no 0.

    Ah, let’s get back to cat pictures. Shall we? ;)
