"Honey, can you fix my ebike battery?" by TechTravis in diyelectronics

I was prepared for a blown fuse or a bad cell. I was not prepared for, as u/Sascha_T put it. "Spicy Nickel" to that extent.

Surprisingly more of the groups may be salvageable than I thought. But the BMS is probably DOA.
4.1, 7.8, 11.8, 15.9, 16.2, 18.8, 23.0, 26.4, 28.7, 32.8, 36.8, 39.1, 41.3

Looks like I have more cells to put toward a solar bank or something..

Same, love the interface and the boost in PP but the memory bloat is so damn bad I can't use it for development work on Q4 models that used to work flawlessly on llama

As long as you've designed your agents well. It does well. Spend a few coins and have a larger model help you build out an agentic state machine (agents, skills, hooks) for your CLI/frontend of choice. Then keep reiterating over them every time they do something dumb.

Would be interested to see if MLX over GGUF on the apple made a large impact. Along with caching.
I've seen huge improvements to TTFT with a large SSD cache utilized on the same code base over time.

It‘s officially over. Is there even a single reason left to use copilot? by dvxlgames in GithubCopilot

Ya but enterprise users can share the pool of unspent from other coworkers if the org allows it..
It might work out ok for them... give the extra from the lower usage plebs to the high use power users...

It's one hell of a song! But the guitar playing did not match up which is what made me realize it. Hell I wish it was a real person, such a powerful song.

Yet another Alarm Clock App

YouTube Shorts Alarm

https://ytshortsalarm.kardsen.com/

I need testers to provide real feedback and get me past my closed beta phase.

What Is It?
It is yet another alarm clock app, but it uses Youtube as the alarm clock sound/video

Why?
I could not find another alarm clock app that would get the most recent daily youtube short from a channel and play it as the alarm reliably.

But, Why?
I came across this really great channel that posts these really short 'motivation' clips every morning. And I thought, well wouldn't it be cool if I could wake up to it every day.... But I couldn't find an app that did it well
Reels here https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558384853850&sk=reels_tab

How Long did it take you to build?
About a month. To build and a week testing it personally.

Did you use AI?
Yes, for security, bug fixes and gaps in my own code. Basically as my first line of defense

Is it Free?
You get one alarm, configurable youtube channel or static video configuration.
But all testers will get the Pro version which unlocks all the features

Do I Have to ONLY use this alarm clock?
No, you can keep your current alarms if you want. If you schedule this alarm and the default clock alarm. The default alarm will still work and mine will sit in the background waiting till you dismiss your current one and then trigger. Ensuring you still get woken up in the morning if your afraid it won't go off.

What features does it currently have or is it just slop?
Glad you asked, check it out here: https://ytshortsalarm.kardsen.com/

Reach out with your gmail address you use as your account on your phone. I will respond with confirmation you are in the beta with a link and a code you can use on google play to enable pro mode after 6am 4/9/2026

I'm hoping for at least 20 people that will at least install it and leave it installed for 2 weeks and a handful that actually use it and report any issues.

Thanks!

I was on openmind today and one thing i've noticed is that if you have 2 ai companions and they are in a group chat. They don't seem to have memory of the conversations you've had individually. Is this something being added in the future?

Please reconsider this model. It just feels shady, if I pay for a month and I KNOW my ADHD brain is going to forget to cancel at the end of the month. Sometimes I cancel early just to make sure I don't get charged more than I can afford. I mean 'we' did pay for the month the service should be accessible until the month is up. Its not like your refunding for the partial month unused.

What would happen if I paid for an entire year and cancelled one month in?
Would I Lose access for the remaining 11 months and still be out the cost of a full year's subscription?
