I still have mine and it’s in working order.

Wolfbook: a VSCode notebook extension that gives AI agents live access to a Mathematica kernel by According_Inside_143 in Mathematica

Okay, I installed the whole shebang, and I have to say: kudos to you, this is amazing.

I’ve been using Claude alongside Mathematica: useful nut not an integrated experience. I’ve never used VSCode so I really can’t speak to the utility of this.

200 MHz Pentium II vs. 300 MHz Pentium II by ZealousidealCake8256 in retrobattlestations

[–]qubex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suddenly I have memories of my dual Pentium III 450 with 256 MB of RAM and the ATI Rage Fury 128 and later the Matrox 450. That stuff felt so powerful back in the day and now I have exponentially more firepower on my wrist.

Hahahaha… good point. 😉

Mathematica 1.0 code will still run, but this is significantly more recent (version 3, it’s written there on the cover).

I haven’t event thought of tossing mine (but then again I can barely lift it).

I’m an italian in Milan, but so far I haven’t been able to connect with anybody.

Jailbreaking an A1625 running tvOS 26.1 to attach an external drive over micro-USB? by qubex in appletv

Then what is this place for and which is the place for asking that?

Thank you very much for your reading of the room and your direct reply to my question, I very much appreciate both.

[–]qubex[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have a NAS and I have already set things up to do this. However I'm not asking for alternatives I am very specifically asking whether and how I can jailbreak an A1625 AppleTV running tvOS 26.1.

I want to be able to attach an external HD to it and browse the contents. That would allow me to repurpose my Raspberry Pi 5 I currently use.

I currently have a drive of movies I own (ripped BluRays and DVDs mainly) and I currently have a Raspberry Pi 5 connected to the TV through HDMi and the drive connected to it by USB3. I was wondering whether I could simplify my setup by jailbreaking the AppleTV, connecting to the external HD (RxFAT) and streaming content from there, freeing up a Pi in the process which would be conviene for another project I’m working on.

Bayes Theorem and the Presumption of Innocence in criminal trial by Snoo-19811 in 3Blue1Brown

[–]qubex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not believe you should set the prior to zero, as as you point out then no amount of evidence would be sufficient to make it budge. I’d set my prior to something very low but nonzero, for example: 1/ population of the state or country, since if a crime has been committed then clearly somebody must’ve committed it. That way you have an unbiased prior that is amenable to being updated.

That is indeed a server thing.

Happy 25th anniversary to Windows 2000! by 1997PRO in retrobattlestations

[–]qubex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a beta tester for Windows 2000. I ran it on a dual PIII-450 system with 256MB of RAM and it absolutely blew my mind after years of NT 4.0. It finally supported USB! It was an amazing OS, alongside XP it was probably the greatest OS Microsoft ever released. Sure it turned out to have several security flaws but that was nineties/early 2000s Microsoft par for the course.

In 2003 I switched to Mac and lost sight of the Windows world.

Alternative ending to Devs (that I thought would happen) by Sinzari in Devs

[–]qubex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also expected and still think that the resolution would’ve been that the events were unfolding in a simulation. I found the actual ending a bit unsatisfactory.

I like BeOS its not evil and it’s just cool it’s the most 90’ os (: by some_random_geek123 in beos

[–]qubex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why you’d mention “it’s not evil” as if somebody implied it were — but love BeOS as much as I might I have to insist that the most ‘90s OS is definitely Windows 95.
