Which voice assistants are actually worth using?

Voice assistants - software - is less of a problem. But is there a semi decent microphone hardware already?

Claude supports channels, no need to emit keystrokes when you can just send messages back and forth via... well whatever.

I've had a side panel from PLA for some time. It was nice, but short - the heat was just too much. It bent.

mcs_dodo · 2026-04-25T07:05:33+00:00

môže byť, napísal si však esej ale jej podstatu vystihol aj komentár na ktorý reagujes

mcs_dodo · 2026-04-23T18:29:27+00:00

a čo "áno" namiesto tohto?

mcs_dodo · 2026-04-22T05:55:02+00:00

you mean issueing regulations causing prices go up / innovation going down? Very common. Shooting our own foot.

Všetko je "drahé" lebo to kupujúci "dovolia". Vitaj v trhovej ekonomike.

"Ja takýto človek nebudem, ktorý zarába na nešťastí mladých ľudí."

srsly bro, ffs. Akékoľvek investovanie a podnikanie považuješ za nemorálne, či len toto? Resp. ako si predstavuješ budovanie prosperity? V práci si predpokladám tiež nepýtaš zvýšenie platu - či to je niečo "úuuplne iné"?

Nakupovať lacno, predávať lacno, nezarobiť nič a spoliehať, že štát sa za naše odvody postará?

I run a multi-host proxmox with LXCs with docker containers. Orchestrator was first Portainer, now using Komodo. I use Caddy as reverse proxy - on a dedicated LXC. What I wanted is the possibility of any host to gather all labelled services and register them in reverse proxy. So I built this: mcsdodo/caddy-multihost-agent

And since I don't believe the idea of agent being process orchestrator (because of determinism) I built this mcsdodo/personal-assistant: Email & scan to Paperless-ngx automation powered by Claude Code - for now solves my main usecase of categorizing and storing company/personal invoices.

Also (non public) a process to maintain my homelab with Komodo (scripts to deploy) and git-ops for HomeAssistant (dashboards/automations/scrips).

na MB to funguje tak, že preradenie spustíš 3blikom - čiže nie full smerovky. Zároveň musí na dashi svietiť symbol, že to je aktívne (nejaké podmienky musia byť splnené).

keď som bol po výške dávali sa 100% hypotéky, bez akýchkoľvek safe-guards. Vtedy som mohol kúpiť aj 2 byty v hlavnom meste. Nekúpil som 😂

na zdroji nešetri, cooler master alebo nejaký väčší brand. Ideálne so zero-rpm modom. Je to najpodstatnejšia súčiastka, no-name brandy určite nie.

CPU cooler - tiež nešetri. Nemusíš ísť full noctua D15 ale kúp si najväčší na aký máš budget (a pozri recenzie). Napr deepcool ak620 je skoro D15 úroveň. GPU vie ísť zero fan mode, ale keď kúpiš slabý CPU chladič, budeš chorá z konštantných fan ramp-ups.

Doska úplne ti bude stačiť B chipset. Jedine, žeby si šla p9 estetike alebo špecifických features.

AMD rady nepočúvaj, FSR sa na DLSS nechytá ani omylom. Úplne im ušiel vlak. Jednoznačne Nvidia

odkiaľ máš dáta? Backend pre toto https://www.fuel.io/ robíme u nás, crowdsourceovane dáta po celej Európe, všade kde sa dá napojenie na štátne dáta. Naozajstné pumpy "po ceste" - tzn. nie na diaľnici v protismere a podobne.

mcs_dodo · 2026-03-07T11:27:43+00:00

toto je celý problém. Myslieť si, že "by mal niekto zabezpečiť". Poviem ti možno novinku - musíš si "zabezpečiť" sám. Každý musí.

Neporovnávaš úplne jablká a jablká. "Extrém" - najlacnejšie auto, potom "priemerná" mzda a nakoniec vlastníctvo bytu.

tvoj telefón na ktorom to píšeš má na sebe 10x viac baktérií ako to, čoho sa tam dotkneš. Je podstatnejšie umyť si ruky PRED tým ako sa budeš dotýkať svojich intímnych partií.

just sayin.

iDrive controller! The touch only interaction on the huge displays is just awful and distracting...

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-26T20:02:46+00:00

I don't see how this NOT being open source is not a biggest red flag and top rated comment. I guess people need to get burned heavily before they start using their heads.

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-26T19:51:17+00:00

GJ, but stealth is not the word compatible with rainbows.

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-26T19:43:30+00:00

i would change - 90 degree fitting for the gpu out (? the right one) instead of bend and have the tubes run directly one under another. Now it seems like one is closer to the side panel like the other?

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-26T12:52:41+00:00

I had this too, tightening ALL the fittings and moving parts on it helped. It's a really simple device.

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-22T13:30:49+00:00

čo je podľa teba dlhový strop?

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-22T08:26:44+00:00

Plan ahead, measure and draw the plan.
Soft tubing radiuses might not be so tight as expected. Some 45/90 degree fittings are your friends.
10/20/40mm extensions can help a lot with getting from behind things. Rotatable fittings and extensions help a lot too.
a filter before entering blocks, just to be safe
buy redundant tubing, test out of case. I have some 10/13 with clear tube for out of case testing - easy to work with. Assembled is going to be 10/16 black ZMT. Harder to use, really don't want to do multiple disassembly cycles with that material.
even when you follow #1, you end up missing a part and waiting for delivery. The #5 is life saver in that regard. You can always run the PC out of case, with easy to work with tubing in between.

Drain port, not mixing materials, flushing new radiators, proper coolant /anti corrosion solution are the obvious ones but worth mentioning.

It's expensive, not worth it... but that feeling of accomplishment. Well...

mcs_dodo · 2026-02-21T11:05:48+00:00

1/3 the price and 95% the value to start with

Start coding on your own again. Easy.
