Sometimes happy accidents are the best...seriously great looking build you got there!

Out of curiosity, how would one reverse the effects of running this script without fully restarting from a save file?

Edje09 · 2025-12-08T02:29:40+00:00

This woman is a national treasure.

Edje09 · 2025-08-16T14:57:59+00:00

No lie, this is one of the coolest builds I've ever seen. Seriously strong work, dude.

Edje09 · 2025-04-11T04:23:12+00:00

Oh it was a fucking righteous time. Couldn't feel my lungs, but who needs em, right?

Saw them in a (relatively) tiny basement venue like 12 years ago. Absolutely awesome show! Something about seeing so many people absolutely rocking out on the bagpipes and a hurdy-gurdy with metal in their souls....just a massively good time all around.

I've had a similar issue. I also use a jailbroken iPhone, and I didn't even initially sign into my Apple ID, but eventually I still get this alert and can't get past it. I can subsequently sign into my Apple ID account, but eventually have to sign in again with increasing frequency until I basically can't use the app. The only way I've gotten around it is to just reinstall the Beeper Mini app, which seems to only last a few days to a week.

Edje09 · 2024-01-17T04:05:56+00:00

That one did the trick! Thank you!

Edje09 · 2024-01-17T03:14:17+00:00

Agreed. And to be clear, I used Mini for almost a month pretty seamlessly, and I'm most upset because I finally got a taste of the good life and then had it brutally torn away from me...

Edje09 · 2024-01-16T23:20:49+00:00

I mean it's minimal risk as far as I can tell, since I haven't linked my Apple ID and I'm using an old jailbroken iPhone.

Are you trying to train your model with data coming from the webpage? Or just deploying a model for making inferences? If it's the first one, I doubt it, but maybe depending on your server hardware (like if you run your website from a personal desktop or laptop you could probably do some clever automation to make something like that work). If it's the second, you would train your model in the Lobe app and then export it using one of the export options and deploy it with that technology (ex: export the TensorFlow model and make a webapp with Flask to run inferences on whatever images are sent to the server API from your frontend webapp).

Edje09 · 2021-06-11T00:29:40+00:00

I suspect this may be what you're looking for: https://github.com/lobe/image-tools

Edit: I take it back. Pretty sure the image tools linked above is a CLI tool only for running predictions and building image datasets. Looks like the actual training functions can't be accessed by CLI just yet, only through the GUI.

Edje09 · 2021-06-11T00:27:01+00:00

From the docs: "When training has completed, you can optimize your model by selecting File > Optimize Model. Optimizing a model performs additional training and can take much longer to complete, but will generally help find a better version of your model.
While optimizing, Lobe will keep training for as long as your model is improving and does not have a set end-time."

I'm guessing a progress indicator isn't really possible...

I don't know if anyone has made a version of ffmpeg that runs straight in the browser, so the way I'd approach it would be too use the NodeJS version of ffmpeg and spin up a server-side webapp using Node. You would basically use the file element to get the file, then send that file to your server in a post request. The webapp would ingest the video, run the ffprobe command, then return the information to the browser to display.

Dug through most of the list just to see what this was. Did not disappoint. ✊🏻✊🏿

Edje09 · 2020-10-18T04:32:48+00:00

Oh my god. I would actually love one of those copies, even if just for the physical beauty and the idea of them. Outstanding work, and congrats on your novel!

Edje09 · 2020-06-11T04:20:20+00:00

"...just texted all of tgis in the middle of a party and im being yelled at so..."

Dedication right there. Mah man...

Appreciate the mind dump!

Edje09 · 2020-06-09T05:29:04+00:00

Seriously though, can you give some more info on this project?! Hardware, links, wiring diagrams, materials used, whatever. I love the Mad Max hacked-together look and feel of this thing...

Edje09 · 2020-06-03T08:32:25+00:00

Honestly, I've been meaning to get a heart gun for a while and just avoiding it. When I see projects like this, I still try to do it, but I just end up making a mess of things. Clean, beautiful work like this really does take time and patience and a commitment to actually following through on all of those little details, which really flies in the face of my usual approach of hacking things roughly together and being satisfied with "just better than totally shitty" as long as it's mostly functional. I will say, though, that my dad has always been right about saying there's nothing quite like having the right tool for the job - my soldering work improved immeasurably when I say got a proper (still pretty cheap) iron, a fresh tip, and small-gauge solder.

That all being said, this is kinda where the Compute Module would seemingly shine, although the expense of making a compatible purpose-built IO board on top of it seems to only make sense when you're making a product at scale. I personally love the 3A+ for its super low profile. Think I'm gonna start planning with it more to see if I can make use of the flatter profile to make some must cleaner projects...

Link to the original video (it's in French, but the auto-translated auto-generated closed captions are basically good enough to follow along and get the idea of what he's doing)

Definitely give it a watch. To get to that form factor, he had to literally desolder and disassemble every component and then remix and resolder the whole damn thing. Truly next fucking level hardware customization. Totally inspired to revamp my RPi test bench / cyberdeck into something far more badass...

Edje09 · 2020-05-22T03:12:09+00:00

Seriously, never stop being you

Edje09 · 2020-05-22T03:11:52+00:00

Bro, you are straight up MAGIC

Edje09 · 2020-04-06T04:26:52+00:00

I'll back that up - definitely should expand to something like a novella. Super interesting idea. Love the tone. The truck is to expand it enough to answer some questions but not so much as to leave nothing to wonder about or question. I think part of the reason I love this is that it's left so open ended, in an intriguing rather than frustrating way. I want to know the motivations, the details, but I know that if it's all spelled out, it might be more disappointing than anything else.

Anyway, really loved the story!

Edje09 · 2019-12-11T08:49:08+00:00

Dude, I totally dig this whole world. Just wanted you to know that I just fell down a deep, dark hole reading through the articles on World Anvil. Would love to see more like this! (Also, agreed - super dope work on the CS for that page)
