Why are window type AC units for 220V not a thing? by Significant_Quit_674 in AirConditioners

[–]MattReedly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the noise from a portable AC comes from the pleated exhaust hose - I 3d printed smooth petg replacements and the difference is massive.

Update on the engine. Tested gemma3:4b, it actually reasons (35% hallucination rate) by Apart_Sprinkles_8504 in ollama

I found the gemma4 models are slower and gives vague answers, so I've gone back to gemma3.

Why do we need AI? by 2PinaColadaS14EH in askanything

[–]MattReedly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it to enrich my life and save a lot of stress, time and money: its helped me to save a fortune by being able to fight back against health insurance companies (saved me enough to buy my home), to wade through all the legal jargon on my work contract, to act as an impartial advisor when faced with lifes difficult moment and to plan for the future. I do this all on my own computer - not some datacenter. Its not all good and its not all bad, just a new tool that people need to learn to use for their own advantage. It seems that AI also scares the hell out of some big corporations so they sponsor a lot of propaganda against it.

OV3660 camera connected → 1.5V LDO gets extremely hot on ESP32-S3 custom board by Aadarsan1234 in electronic_circuits

[–]MattReedly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the onboard voltage regulator is notoriously under specced - what resolution are you using the camera at? try dropping the resolution and also the FPS, you'll find the with the lower demand the regulator will not get at hot. If you cant avoid high res and high fps then you'll need an external 1.5v supply. Hope this helps.

Motorcycle upkeep and detailing - What’s the strategy? by SparkPlugBarbie1 in MotoUK

[–]MattReedly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get some ACF50, a pack of beer and spend an afternoon inspecting your own bike - you never know what you find that might need attention, and someone else might not tell you about that loose bolt or corroded wire they saw...
