  • You would go for a Raspberry Pi when you need something it was invented for.

    Putting a computer on your motorcycle or robot or solar powered RV. Super small space or low-low power availability things, or direct GPIO control.

    A MiniMicro will run laps around a Pi for general compute, but you can’t run it off a cell phone battery pack. People only related Pis to general compute because of the push to sell them as affordable school computers, not because they were awesome at it, because they were cheap and just barely enough.

    Onboard AI chips will allow this to be local.

    Phones do not have the power to ~~~

    Perhaps this is why these features will only be available on iPhone 15 Pro/Max and newer? Gotta have those latest and greatest chips.

    It will be fun to see how it all shakes out. If the AI can’t run most queries on the phone with all this advertising of local processing…there’ll be one hell of a lawsuit coming up.

    EDIT: Finished looking for what I thought I remembered…

    Additionally, Siri has been locally processed since iOS 15.

    I think there’s a larger picture at play here that is being missed.

    Getting the weather is a standard feature for years now. Nothing AI about it.

    What is “AI” is, Hey Siri, what is the weather at my daughter’s recital coming up?

    The AI processing, calculated on-device if what they claim is true, is:

    1. the determination of who your daughter is
    2. What is a recital? An event? Are there any upcoming calendar events that match this concept?
    3. Is the “daughter” associated with this event by description or invitation? Yes? OK, what’s the address?
    4. Submit zip code of recital calendar event involving the kid to the weather API, and churn out a reply that includes all this information…

    Well {Your phone contact name}, it looks like it will {remote weather response} during your {calendar event from phone} with {daughter from contacts} on {event date}.

    That is the idea between on-device and cloud processing. The phone already has your contacts and calendar and does that work offline rather than educating an online server about your family, events and location, and requests the bare minimum from the internet, in this case nothing more than if you opened the weather app yourself and put in a zip code.


  • Plug it into a monitor or TV and keep an eye on the console.

    I have an older NUC that will not cooperate with certain brands of NVMe drive under PVE…the issue sounds like yours where it would work for an arbitrary amount of time before crashing the file system, attempting to remount read-only and rendering the system inert and unable to handle changes like plugging a monitor in later, yet it would still be “on”.


  • Perhaps because of Imgur, my and perhaps others clients aren’t even loading the image. I just see a long rectangle with a question mark box.

    I just assumed it was a dead/broken link and kept scrolling at first…

    EDIT: taking a quick scroll through your posts, I see this is true for all but two of your posts, and those working ones have hundreds of upvotes, so we may be onto something here…


  • My understanding is that this is a rage-baitey misunderstanding.

    Yes, they are renaming the base game (to improve search results, it is speculated) but otherwise this is more of a soft-reboot, a free DLC(for owners of current DLC) with some core mechanic overhauls.

    It’s not even going to stop being an MMORPG, the marketing team was just allergic to the acronym for some reason.

    In fact, it was confirmed that for base game players without DLC, this is all just a big nothing. We’ll still keep our progress and data, just not get any new DLC content(obviously), though the rebalancing will still trickle down.

    New World isn’t shutting down, it’s getting a new DLC and a less generic name, the marketing guys just tried to oversell it like a new game. Guess they earned their bonus because everyone is talking about it now…
