My favorite hypothesis is we just didn’t invent something akin to subspace radio yet. It’s like thinking your little remote island is the only populated place in the world because no one responds to your smoke signals, while the rest of the world uses radio.
At this point just use streamio-web. Make the server go through a vpn and all your apps will be protected. Then just make the server public. (Although a warning about making services like this open to the whole web is probably needed)
But they offer a new API. Any disadvantages with the new one?
I didn’t see anyone else say this, but 7200 rpm disks are way louder than 5400. Where my server is it would be annoying, but if it’s in a closed room somewhere you’ll be fine.
Also, these drives are probably not made to run 24/7/365. First 1 or 2 years or so it will probably be fine, but after you can expect some sudden dead drives.
So it will be locally hosted on the phone? I seriously doubt it will be very useful in offline only mode. Even relativity small language models (7B or 13B) struggle on even desktop pc’s if you don’t have a high end graphics card with 12+ GB of vram. Analyzing can be relatively fast, but generating will be terribly slow, especially images.
Edit: So after some reading, the snapdragon gen 3 has some impressive specs, but can someone explain how a phone can generate fast ai content while a PC needs let’s say 24GB’s of vram? I get the phone has an ai-specialized chip, but you still need to load the model into memory.
I just read about Solidworks. Don’t pirate that, it still contacts home and gives them all the info it can pull from your pc: ip, your name, company info, etc. and then they send you a huge bill for the costs of 5 years or so of licensing. Also don’t have an illegal copy next to a legal one, because then the legal one will detect the illegal one and send the info. Or open projects created with pirated software with a legal version.
Of course this data snooping would be illegal in the EU, but outside that I would be careful.
Iew, using the word normies seriously makes you sound like an incel.
