It includes costs for retired personnel and social security (social security is not in the military budget in most or any European countries) for example.

The usa military budget is non comparable to european military budgets, they pay for different things. IMO.

Or steganographically leaks back the keys …

Nitpicking; even if they have the keys, the messages can be encrypted. It’s just worthless as they can now decrypt them.

Well not more than the obvious?

Yeah the system isn’t protecting you (like it does preventing a normal user accessing another user), “only” the docker code does.

Or so I have understood it.

This is just the printout?

Too late I already patented it.

With the exception of LLM it’s just a bit incrementally better? Like I game on full hd, I have an old pc that can compile anything (why do it on a rpi 😁?!)… A simple web page can be done on an esp, and way less if you want the hassle of course.

I mean go ahead, but for me it’s not really better enough to be worthwhile.

And LLM hardware is way too expensive still, IMO.

I don’t really know what to say, but thank you is a start, I might actually be a bit down.

So thank you for taking the time (and whaat is Inconel 😁 TIL) writing an uplifting post for me 🙂‍↕️.

I did tensorflow in 2016(2017?) and LEO is still in over 10-20k a cubsat no? Cool stuff though for real. I do feel like LLM is going too fast to follow in depth, but it is interesting to follow regardless.

I went for a walk, touched grass, and remembered one of my old inventions that I never had the time to build (and my homemade 3D printer wasn’t up to the job, but my new store bought one is, probably).

So thanks again!

My point is that you don’t actually need that extra speed or ram or whatever. And my orange 1GB PI from a decade ago can do anything I want still.

Yes, it might be just me but I liked tinkering (and no need for surface mounted parts, legged ones were quite ok!) and coding, writing communication stuff in c++, driving loads of servos by smart interrupt code etc. and feel not so interested in just following say how a meshstatic works or just buy one.

“Everything” also has been built which doesn’t help. Or so I feel!

Can young people even link?

Will do, thank you very much!

Ha ha ha thank you so much!

I have seen the “are we the baddies” meme many times, anyone know where it’s from?

New band just dropped.

Okay so those new buttons only have downsides.

But they are cheaper.

Ooh 🤑🤑🤑 let’s go!!

Tech has also somewhat grinded to a halt IMO. A 8GB raspberry? Not so much better than a 4GB one. ESP32 with dual core? Not so much more to do with than an ESP single core. 3D printers? More reliable. Etc.

It’s all true and cool if you stumble upon that today, but IMO that’s a bit what OP talks about, esp(or the original 8266), pi and 3d printers were new and fun ages ago. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a fun space but not much has happened the last ten years there (or prove me wrong 😁!)
