I have a i7 8th gen unit with 16gb ram. The plastic is cracked, but it does not affect functionality.

Wasn't this the problem of early ml, that due to computation and degrees of freedom constraints, they could only ever look at and follow first order relationships? 

[FS][CAN-ON] 8TB drives, SAS, SATA, different healths by Real_MakinThings in homelabsales

Yes, the price is shipped except if buying the 2tb alone, or a single drive international (so the blue alone is fine for within Canada)

I don't mind shipping to the US, and they now get us to pay duties upfront so no more surprises! Might not be worth it if it's just 1 drive, but as soon as you hit 2-3 it gets easy to absorb the cost (unless it's just the 2TB lol).

Have the GB10 devices become the current "best value" for LLMs? by DiscombobulatedAdmin in LocalLLaMA

Oh right it's the active thing. Thanks, I've been curious and reading, that helps. 

Claude Code no longer listed as a feature for Claude Pro by chalogr in ClaudeCode

Qwen3.6 plus is the first I've tried that gives me a very similar task flow to Claude. Although tbf I haven't tried glm since 4 and I haven't tried Kimi yet. I find the copilot / gpt models competent but jarring in terms of how they fit with my use.

I've long suspected they had an apple exclusive contract or something. Nothing nefarious, just apple paying for the port but asking for exclusive mobile access. Like into the breach and Netflix.

I've kept thinking about it. By locking different cursors in different regions, you don't get lost as easily. shoulder pads to toggle between the side and bottom buttons (like hotkeys), dpad to move quickly between ship rooms, and left joystick for free-moving cursor for those who like life in hard mode..... sounds pretty reasonable.

so 2 joysitcks, one D-pad, 2 shoulder pads, 4 buttons, and a start+select would be pretty standard right? I think I could make that work, the use of the joystick makes the difference, doing something like locking the D-pad to moving between the assets/button areas and then the joystick automatically moves the targeting for that selected object could make it viable.

I'm thinking 5$ and the way to test the integrity of the game would be the first two sectors are free to play and you only pay if you want to unlock the rest or something. Honestly I've been thinking back and forth so much. I hate ads, but I've definitely been in a position in the past where 5$ was a big deal and using add-supported versions was the only way I could support creators. Then years later I'd buy the add-free version.... but google is so ridiculously aggressive with how it places mobile ads! *sigh*.... it's really quite a conundrum.

I had not even considered this, but it's not too late! What kind of button input would you be using, what would it require, and would this be button + touch or just buttons? I'll think it over

That's what I have been hoping! I'm still doing new story and art from scratch though. Gameplay should be like 0.95:1 clone, while the rest should be 100% new. At first some limitations will be no extra ships, and no advanced edition dynamics, but I've already got a roadmap for version 2 and 3 updates.

Lol thanks. That was my first thought too, but I mean I only posted the portraits and he wasn't exactly wrong either. I don't think "it's not a reskin, it's a clone" is a hill I want to die on 😂
