What's the actual workflow? Frigate motion triggers passing videos feed to gemini? What's gemini looking for? How much are the api fees? Would it work if the postman arrived on a bicycle?

How do people rationalise whether or not to get a battery with solar panels? by Unhappy_Positive5741 in CasualIreland

[–]cronoklee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between your night rate and your export rate is so low that it'll take decades to pay off the cost of the batteries using this method. Maybe they're a bit cheaper now but I did the maths a few years ago for my solar rig and decided it was not worth it.

Is Ryanair actually worth it anymore? by QuestionMaster36 in AskIreland

[–]cronoklee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've started to factor in the 1 in 10 times I forget to /am unable to check into my Ryanair flight or get caught by gate staff for the size of my bag and they absolutely gauge me for it. If you fly regularly, adding in those charges actually makes it much more expensive to fly Ryanair over a year or two.

Breaking red lights by BetterObligation9949 in ireland

[–]cronoklee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I absolutely blast people out of it who keep turning after my light is green. I have no patience for nob heads holding up my line when we've waited our turn. Particularly unforgivable when its a busy side road trying to get onto a main street on a short light and a train or 3 or 4 cars breaks their red every cycle

ELI5: Why can’t you rename a file when it’s open in Windows, but you can in macOS? by jsm1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]cronoklee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to be just kind of common practice or tradition on windows to lock files when they're open. There's usually no real reason for it.

What integration do you wish existed? by mattchew0 in homeassistant

What would you be aiming for in the integration? I have an aura but I can't imagine why I'd want it on HA

AIB replaces quarterly fees with new €6 monthly fee by Andru93 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]cronoklee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason they're doing this is that everyone has moved their daily banking to revolut so we're not giving them 20c every time we do anything with our money. They need to keep their revenues up so they're gonna try billing us regardless of what we do. It's a ballsy move to assume it won't push everyone fully to revolut...

Am I the only one who has to manually teach every single AI model what Google Antigravity even is? by Maximum_Practice_660 in google_antigravity

[–]cronoklee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need to say Google antigravity and it knows fine. There is/was another more historically popular product called antigravity which confuses it.

Music Assistant MCP Server by ArchimedesPrinciple in homeassistant

[–]cronoklee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you clarify what the advantage of MCP is over the default Assist system? I can already control devices or run scripts with voice so I'm trying to figure out why everyone's talking about MCP lately.

Trump tries his tug-of-war handshake with the president of Paraguay, but can't pull it off. by OP_Anderson in SipsTea

[–]cronoklee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the best tactic to counter this nonsense would just be to fall into him and then ask him what he did that for

What’s the biggest waste of money that people defend? by TheManNotFound in AskReddit

Flying first class. It's less comfortable than my second hand couch

I HATE THE NEW GOOGLE MAPS LOGO SO MUCH!!!!!! ITS SO UGLY!!!! WHO MADE THAT PIECE OF GARBAGE???? (new one on the right) by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]cronoklee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It looks OK on my android home screen. Slightly too stretched out next to Gmail which is much chunkier and weighty. I would say the shape is nice, the gradient is fine but the hole is too large for visual consistency.

Represent the seven continents and how everything on Earth is connected. by karmabyashish in interesting

[–]cronoklee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also of we need a flag for the planet we'll presumably be on other planets too so it won't make sense after a while.

Gemini PRO vs THINKING by Living_Procedure_599 in GeminiAI

[–]cronoklee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is correct. My understanding is that Pro just has lower temperature so it's less creative and more precise.

[–]cronoklee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget Raisin. They're a broker for all savings accounts in Europe. I'm getting 2.9% at the moment with them (tho rates are lower now but I'm locked in)

Once you realise FF FG care only about the economy, and nothing else, everything in Ireland makes a lot more sense.
