  Huh, yeah. 50% cost in tokens could be 1 very expensive token or 1 million tokens. Who knows?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well, That’s One Way to Sell Americans on Electric Cars. The U.S. has been wary of EVs. As the cost of gas soars, we’re now paying the price.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Its actually crazy how little is done for energy efficeny and EV preparedness for high denisty housing in the midwest US to me. There is just next to no incentive for most places because 1 they dont pay for electricty and 2 they dont have to tell potential tenets just how bad the bills tend to be in a place.

  The EV preparedness is mostly just the lack of rent seeking potential vs any effort most rental companies are willing to put in.

  Theoretically those bastards could be upselling power from meters they installed on the property and be making money from it, but that would require running a buisness with skilled and valued workers and not a constant revolving door of underpaid under trained employees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Steam Beta can run the Linux client inside a container with 64bit⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I run most of my software in containers. Firefox is in a flatpak. My terminal shells are all containers using distrobox. My homelab services are all containers. My few VMs (i run a few vituralized rke2 clusters, sometimes a test version of my baremetal harvester cluster, and test versions of my desktops)? Also running in containers. My desktop OSs are also containers (ublue, SteamOS, and SUSE Elemental).

  The future is now old man! :p

  But honestly linux namespaces and overlay filesystems are the bees knees. Create reusable layers of filesystems, use just the ones needed for a given app/service. Expose just what a service or app needs to for a given function. You end up with an extemly portable, and consistent system that has cleaner seperations of concerns. For basically free. From an app dev perspective you remove a whole matrix of supported configurations to worry about (distro/version/packages installed/etc).

  Right! GraphRAG, VectorDBs, larger context windows, MCP servers, “tools”, “skills”, and now “using the cli as a user” still havent really solved some of the inherent flaws of even the latest frontier models. SLMs and fining tuning gives me hope on addressing the learning part of machine learning. At least a little more

  Fair. I guess all air borne thibg suffer from being a potential energy battery (they fall) and have to be made much lighter to be reasonably energy effecrive.

  Honstly RC car is probally better most of the time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Soon: Watch any YouTube video on Odysee⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly 100% for Odysee and Peertube adopting this plus if we could get proxing for each other too.

  Opensource can win because we can do what google cant afford to do (their investors would flip).

  Tbh different tolerences. Drones can be smaller and can fly but also more ways to fail. I bet these (i mean for the price they better be) are more reliable. Even if its windy, snowy, or raining.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Agent based backup server?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have my shared data on Longhorn, so for services that’s just longhorn as a PVC on rke2(k8s) and for clients I expose the NFS for mounts from a longhorn PVC to them to mount to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's AI wants to be your medical middleman, but is a "Secure by Design" promise really enough for Copilot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Microsoft’s push to make Copilot a kind of AI medical middleman—especially through the newly announced Copilot Health—raises a real tension: the company is loudly promoting a Secure by Design philosophy, but the sensitivity of health data means the bar is far higher than a general security promise. The short version is that Secure by Design is necessary, but nowhere near sufficient for something that sits between you, your clinicians, your medical records, and your wearables.

  Agreed!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now wheres my option to avoid women drivers on the road? /jk

  Honestly is this sexist discrimination in order to further secure corperate markey dominance? Yeah, completly. Do i get what need is being met by it as an option? Also yes.

  Of the issues with Uber this isnt one of then is all i am saying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. Solar Installations Fell in 2025 as Trump Attacked Clean Energy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Insane to see PV being side tracked when arguablly DC based power systems a seeing a massive boom in production (OpenCompute data centers for example are lookinh towards 800vdc facility to compute setups using the hardware EVs are getting standardized on). No to mention the EU big push on eletric rail and HVDC lines.

  Honestly they are just trying to set back a whole country because they dont know how to gatekeep it well enough to be personally enriched while imporvershing everyone else.

  Much worse is when people very confindently ask things with a fundemental misunderstanding basis for the question.

  I love explaing kubernetes in 5 year old terms. I panic when someone says “its a container so do we really need any more security?”.
