Should have emboldened the ecosystem by providing incentives for web-based government services instead of forcing users to only depend on two primary entities in this space.

INT8/FP8 benchmarks would've been great, both cards could have loaded them with around 60GB VRAM instead of TP=2 on H100.

Not being able to renew domains beyond 10yrs could also be a factor

Off the bat I can see on-device assistants be more capable & allow customized handsfree browser/PDF interaction

On: MicroSD cards' SBC days are numbered

[iAkashPaul]

Samsung & Transcend SD/mSD have always errored/failed on me with power outages on Pi without additional power management hardware & software.

Having push to eject NVMEs brings forth a future where you can swap out LLMs/brains in K2SO type droid

Some USB charging cables are just rubbish. I measured a few of mine to be over 1 Ohm, ie supplying 4V at 1A current draw!

After measuring and throwing away all the rubbish cables, I've not had any weird power issues with my Pis, and not any issues with SDcards.

Replacing my RPi with an ODROID with eMMC slot has been such a massive improvement to reliability for my SBC use - it's running much cooler, doesn't have bizarre power problems, is way more performant and seems much more stable. Price was about the same too.

When I have to, I used Sandisk (WD) Industrial XI SD cards that have to be purchased from an electronics supplier. Zero problems ever.

Yeah heard about these in the latest Geerling video

Summarisation & SDXL run just fine on M1 & above Macs. Probably the video editing features like Google/Pixel might need cloud compute.

Realtime translation of text in signage & other things is going to be one of the killer apps for pass-thru AR!

[iAkashPaul]

Is this applicable to public & private buckets alike? Like if I keep making requests with the wrong token?

[easton → iAkashPaul]

Yes. If a request is unauthorized, the bucket owner pays for the API operation anyway.

My go to for lightweight deployments is HuggingFace's Spaces, free 2-core CPU, anything else can go to either serverless container images on runpod or baseten.
