Where is “here”?

Offshore wind can power the data center too. Your dichotomy is not relevant

Thank god

I’m no tech expert like a lot of people here, but I find Gemini 3.0 insanely good for my regular daily questions. Hoping this one is great too. I’m kind of at the point where many …

I just need the Gemini app to allow push to talk :( Otherwise it’s not usable for me in the way I want it to be

The left has been authoritarian. Rewind the clock to 2018, and speak your mind freely on a college campus and at some point you’ll say something that makes you lose your job. That’…

Yeah I have to manually hold it down every time I talk. I have a lot of pauses and simply would not be able to interface with that without that option. It’s why I essentially can’t…

Perplexity has already been doing this for a long time and it’s pretty excellent. I use it daily

I bought a portable AC battery for my Mac mini for $65. Hard agree though that it would be a lot cooler if the conversion was in the cable so I could just do dc in. The thing is, M…

If I’m someone who does not super high intensity photo and video work, is a usb 3.2 gen 2 aka ~1 GB/s speeds fine in a hard drive?

I got the Mac mini m1 as my first Apple computer recently (used). It’s really cool. It never heats up ever

Weird, because in Trump’s last presidency he was pretty anti Jeff Bezos. But I guess however they feel about each other, the assumed business tax benefits of a trump presidency mak…

Agreed. I use perplexity and chat gpt daily, but if I understand correctly that’s all done off device which is fine with me. I don’t need to generate weird images, or have my phone…
