@MichaelRoss I liked the idea that yotaphone had, backside was low energy screen (black and white), and then the main screen was a traditional screen, the thing I didn't like was that spyware was built into the hardware, no matter where in the world, FSB could access your phone.
@MichaelRoss read that postgresql performance regression in kernel 7 at the moment.
@BrideOfLinux the AI generating websites that you can randomly surf while offline? 😜
@MichaelRoss maybe better to migrate all the mail accounts for free to proton 😜
@sjvn my Easter Sunday high light 😸

@geerlingguy I have looked quite many time on building a SoC cluster, but in the end I just drop the idea as it's quite costy, sure you have the NanoCluster reviewed by a great guy, but which the network switch was a bit better than 1Gb.

Sipeed NanoCluster fits 7-node Pi cluster in 6cm

Sipeed's NanoCluster is a tiny compute module clusterboard with room for up to 7 tiny computers. Each slot has two inline M.2 (NGFF) slots which accept either a custom-designed SoM (System on Module) or an adapter board to adapt a standard Compute Module form-factor board into the slot (as pictured above). One end has a large fan for cooling, and the other end has power and IO. You can power the board via either PoE++ (60W) or through USB-C PD (65W). Or both, with redundant power fail-over.

@timbray when someone comes with a "Extra-LLM version 2+" and calls it GenAI, what will actual AI be called?
@pawpower I hope all will go according to your plan. Have a nice day and don't stress, I'm sure it will go well.
