IDK what exactly you’re not understanding but I suspect it’s the difference between a gift and a purchase. The US will not be purchasing this 50% stake in OpenAI with additional money. It will be free. It was technically paid for with all the (not public) IP they used to create these models in the first place.
When you get something in return for nothing, that something is always a positive value even if it’s just a fraction of what it started as.
There is no “investing”, they stole the IP so they owe the People a 50% stake. If the whole company is only worth $100 in a year then the American people will get to split the last $50 amongst ourselves, not be on the hook for bailing out yet another failure.
lol Bernie was talking about 50% and their counter is apparently 5%. What’s say we meet in the middle with… oh, 55%? (math by ChatGPT)
Then you’re just going to have the FCC regulating the high-throughput bandwidths until you’re left with the unregulated ones for consumers… like LoRa… and Meshtastic lol.
Going to be hard since the hardware sitting between all those wires cost money to run and… that’s pretty much what ISPs get paid do. They’re assholes who shouldn’t have a say in what goes through those connections but their job isn’t redundant, someone has to do it to maintain those connections.
Meshtastic? LoRa?
Or do you mean something like VPN tunneling?
Same, but don’t buy Xero, they’re trash. Basically flip-flops with a fabric covering imo. And the ones that have survived 2yrs had their rubber harden up like decades old tires.
I’ve been trying “Rutsu” out based on an ad recommendation (yeah yeah, sue me). Time will tell for sure but they’re definitely made better at least.
Not until you buy your calls with your 401k to save the rest of us.
That’s giving them way too much credit tbh, these guys are too far down (technically “up”) the totem pole. They’ve offloaded their critical thinking and public responsibilities to the first company that said the right keywords. And now that they’re entrenched, they defend them because their ego says they must.
It’s fascism via the convenience-stupidity pipeline.
Sounds like you’ve gone down all the paths I can help with lol. Mine streams just fine using Frigate in HAOS and using RTSP. The two way audio doesn’t work quite yet but I also haven’t tried too hard to diagnose since the audio otherwise functions, so I’m assuming it’s just a configuration issue.
I also 3D printed a mount I found on Thingiverse since the ones it came with didn’t angle it far enough for my needs.
I guess I should’ve said “on its own dedicated hardware” too but, still.
I think I remember reading somewhere about a firmware update that was pretty recent (8/2025) specifically for latency issues, you might want to check that out if you’ve had it awhile.
It’s probably just scrolling speed or debounce or something silly like that lol. Like moving from Android to iOS. I’d bet if you used FF for a couple days you wouldn’t even notice it anymore without something to compare it to.
Have you thought about moving your HA off your server and onto a miniPC? I know you weren’t really looking for advice but that seems like the move to me tbh, doesn’t take long to migrate and it might clear up a lot of headaches.
lol, as if anyone pays for QA anymore.
The do-nothings are always eternally perfect because they never commit to anything.
The real world isn’t a Disney movie or an anime. You don’t know someone’s true motivations most of the time and, even if you did, they can change after a while. But doing nothing IS a decision, and the wrong one most of the time.
When you miss all the nuance of a story, of course it doesn’t make any sense lol.
Paul having prescience is a central axiom of the entire novel. They’re his golden chains and the true antagonist of the entire story. Not having it means a very mundane Dune imo.
Have you seen this one? https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=44467
You won’t find a “simple adapter” with those specs, you’re solidly in dock territory and you’re going to pay a lot extra for something capable of HDMI 2.1.
Happens to the best of us. Sounds like burnout to me though.
Making lists and setting goals usually jumpstarts me out of a jam like that. Well, it gives me something to agonize over until it’s perfect and then something to feel guilty about later until I complete it lol. But… I’m definitely supposed to be in here lmao.
It is and it isn’t. Like everything it depends on frequency and consistency.
Is this you every day for weeks at a time, even for activities that used to give you joy? Yeah you’re probably burnt out. Is this you, constantly, in a cycle you can’t seem to break? Over a period of months and changing circumstances? Keep an eye out for other symptoms and maybe go get checked.
They’re consolidating their marketshare and decreasing cost through every method available to increase revenue. All the avenues of piracy have just become the lowest hanging fruit now that these companies aren’t growing anymore.
