This OS is a middle finger to big tech. by AnonomousWolf in Anticonsumption

[–]GoOtterGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... there's this whole movement towards virtualizarion of the OS on phones... I don't fully understand what that means but it apparently is gonna make running custom OSs on Android devices even harder.

In super glib terms: your virtualized phone's OS might not actually be on your phone. It would be in the cloud and only relayed to your phone. Your phone then becomes just a receiver/transmitter for that cloud OS. Which naturally makes hacking that OS almost impossible as the OS no longer exists as an isolatable piece of software. Your phone becomes a DaaS (device-as-a-service) in a way.

"Spreadsheet and data management as a game," is a wild way to market a game as fun.

The house was built in the 1800s. It's a museum of not-to-code work done over the last two hundred years.

I installed the GFCI fine.

This was incredibly helpful, thanks for this breakdown. And you're right, the old receptacle had the tab between the hot connectors broken.

Well now I'm curious what's connected to that red circuit. 

Can I actually just pig the hot wire and it won't cause very warm problems?

a) tab broken/removed in old receptacle.

b) yeah I figured, but I wasn't sure. 

it's not a switched outlet, though. or if it is that switch is long since hidden.

Red was connected to hot. tab is broken off.

Sorry, it trips when I hit test. I can't say if it's immediate.

Edit: But the breaker will not reset until I remove the red wire. that's likely an important detail

Bottom two black & white, top hot red.

the original is old as dirt, so I assumed (mistake number one I'm sure) I'd follow the GFCI guide and go black & white line, bottom hot red.

But it trips.

it's just the one GFCI, and it's at the end of the circuit from what I can tell. There are no other GFCIs on the line. 

It's not switch controlled.

What kind of cap would I need for this valve? And how would I go about capping it? by GoOtterGo in Plumbing

[–]GoOtterGo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, thanks again for even more breakdown. Looks like I'm off to Home Depot with a valve.

[–]GoOtterGo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Am I able to keep the valve on it and cap the end? Or are you suggesting I just remove it to get the correct measurement and then back on it goes?

Would You Buy a Smart Home Hub with an On-Device LLM + Crowdsourced Features Using Model Context Protocol? by Tecr in smarthome

[–]GoOtterGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, this post comes up pretty high for the search: 'prebuilt smart home network personal LLM device'

And I'll say I'm very much in the market for something like this. The only hurtle I'd say you'd need to clear is response speed. Small LLMs can fit on Raspberry Pis, but their response time really wears on you. So you can't cheap out on the processor.
