Its not hard to see what they’re doing…

First they add negative comments, then follow up with a positive post to seem like they’re being Impartial!

It’d be interesting to see how often the negative comments are put before the positive comments though because i’d guess it’s a lot higher than the reverse!

I’m also in the PI 4 group. Its worth watching ebay, etc for people selling pi clusters. I picked up my 8 node 4GB pi cluster fairly cheap.

Also if you’re learning and find yourself struggling with yaml files, I found Claude helped a lot to get running. Create the file, dump it into Claude and let it re-output the file. Give it the error log helps if it gets stuck.

Also if you explain your cluster setup, I built mine with Talos Linux so setup VIP, etc and it’s pretty good at generating a working setup.

I’m not a huge fan of AI but I struggled with yaml formatting so it might suck for a lot of stuff but formatting stuff properly is great… that and scanning logs for errors! 😎

I don’t fully understand it but Big Clive explained it once while tearing one of them apart.

Erm… yeah, i’m not en electrical engineer but slapping capacitors on things still increases power use slightly because capacitors have losses themselves. So that doesn’t make any sense. I get the smoothing out voltage side but voltage and amps can change as much as they want but the watts is always constant. So I still don’t see anything they do can reduce the wattage.

But i’m an uneducated idiot so who knows!

They aren’t actually looking for smart people.

I’m not smart and still see through the corporate bs! 🤨

Ugh, most of mine are usually “I’m 23 and I made 3m on tiktok in 12 months…”

If you really made 3m then wtf are you making no quality tiktok videos instead of enjoying life are ruining tiktok even more by cluttering it up with even more god awful videos?

Because you didn’t… and this is the critical thinking no-one bothers to taught themselves so get easily scammed.

Like the “Voltage harmonisers” that “cut you’re bill by ½”. Anyone with 1 braincell would understand electric is charged by watts because its the value that doesn’t change when voltage or amps change!

I normally only watch tiktok when waiting for something to finish but I’m almost at the point now where it’s more interesting to watch paint dry than try find anything fun on tiktok. 😞

If tiktok videos where honest they’d be saying “If don’t have any conscience or empathy, you too can get rich by ripping morons off and conning them into re-selling your garbage so you don’t have to.”

I bought the Beelink SER9 MAX, mainly because it’s the only one I saw with 64GB Ram.

It came with windows, but binned that for debian running Ollama and openclaw pretty well. I looked at others but according to Claude, the A1 Pro that i looked at only really supports Windows and I emailed minisforum who confirmed it so kinda went off there PC’s.

I’m not aiming for speed though, i’m aiming for learning but the only issue i’ve run into a few times is:

⚠️ Something went wrong while processing your request. Please try again, or use /new to start a fresh session.

But running /compact seems to fix it. I’d love a few more beelink’s to run a cluster though.

Edit: Also I’m also messing with openclaw and openclaw can’t seem to spawn agents to do tasks. Not sure if thats hardware related or config issue. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t really have much to backup tbh, what I do have is backed up to another drive but unfortunately hosting that offsite because I don’t have friends, lol.

If you aren’t running it yourself, you’ll always be held hostage by toxic companies!

Time and time again, from account closures to account locking… if you value anything, you should really look at self hosting it. Yes it’s a learning curve, but now is actually a good time because you have claude to help, but don’t expect that to last!

I am and will only ever use the free tier of claude but even that is actually pretty useful. Just don’t reuse the same chat, create new ones, delete ones no longer needed and you rarely hit the usage limits.

I’ve used claude to get my own AI server running on a low power beelink PC and while i’m still learning, it runs pretty well so Imcan now bounce between my own AI, to claude for the few issues I can’t solve.

Where did this ‘never wash your jeans!’ mentality come from?

The same place all religious and other propaganda comes from. Plus it’s useful to spot the gullible and easily led people so you can avoid them to save your sanity!

You can now add elements on tablet by long-pressing on an empty space

I’m guessing unless you’re on an iPad?

I’ll try later on the dell 7210 but sadly Apple has screwed up so many things with touch so i’m not surprised when stuff no longer “just works” on Apple!😞🤦‍♂️

Thanks for the quick changes though. I did seem to get a ‘dot’ to show up by tapping and holding but haven’t managed to reproduce how I actually did it and it wouldn’t move when dragging things around so 🤷‍♂️ lol

Sounds good and put a whatsit in for an enhancement.

I don’t pay much attention to shithub so if you want someone to test anything out it’ll probably be easier to shout on here.

Thats cool, I don’t care much for portrait mode tbh, and was just curious if i was missing something.

Would it not be easier just to have an ‘add element’ button that has options for adding a component? Moving stuff around works fine. I’m not even fussed about linking stuff. Just looking for something to visualise the various docker services because i forget whats running on what PI, lol.

Hmm, am I missing something or does it not work on tablets?

Demo looks kinda cool but can’t seem to add anything to the existing projects. 😞

All I want is software that I can put DD’s and known regulars in and it can tell me how much I’ll have in 3 or 6 months time.

I’ve tried firefly, actual budget and most of the docker based ones but still stuck using the forecast app on the ipad.

They’re all just way to over complicated for what anyone I know wants and given how AI can’t get the simplest things right, I’d rather someone just work on simplicity that works, like microsoft money didn’t before they killed it. 🙄😕

Edit: Well I gave up trying to find something that was simple to use so I built one!

https://money.paulcdb.com/ is going to be free to anyone interested with the caveat that I’ve built it for myself, I host it myself and runs on kubernetes. At some point I’ll likely put it up on forgego for others to self host but right now I’m trying to see if theres any major issues.

My workflow is add any credit cards, add scheduled transactions, then link the payments to the card.

If you add in APR, 0% periods, etc, it should calculate it all and give you a “projected debt free” and warning: It isn’t pretty! 😳 If you add a 0% periods, it’ll also calculate how much you’d need to pay to clear it off before the period ends. Hopefully all these calculations are correct although if they are, it’s depressing looking at the graph! 😞

There’s also a demo login: demo/demome if you just want to experiment!
