Interesting, thanks. I've seen NixOS requirements in german military projects. And it is very interesting looking at western downed drone teardowns in the Ukraine. I kept looking for NVidia logo there.

You can tell who is evil by their company being named after Lord of the Rings lore.

Lots of cheap plane-type drones do terrain navigation now. And the Russians are busily deploying their military version of Starlink.

Sure, but it was the best tool for science/technology searches, in the hand of an expert user. I'm still salty all subsequent search engines were inferior in that respect.

AltaVista's advanced search (e.g. the NEAR statement) was extremely effective. Google was never as good even in its best days, nevermind now.

Renewable infra isn't sustainable, since it can't be built with renewable energy alone. As such it's just a fossil multiplier. I make about 2/3rd of my own net power, since my electricity meter is old enough to run backwards. I can't install more orelse my meter would read negative. I intend to run a Qwen model that fits my 8 GB HBM Radeon card as an experiment during the day, starting end of this month.

If this works I consider running something hotter, and double my PV capacity. Adding AC or an EV would be another option. None of this is sustainable, but not exactly a fantasy.

Are you very sheltered? NEETs are sure a hot commodity on the meat market.

You're not understanding what standing on the shoulders of giants means. Locally hosted open weights models are free/libre and puts you in control of your data. Since we're talking about hilariously stupid.

Why should one bother?

The fact that you immediately descend into ad hominems indicates that you're a just another troll that should be posting from hexbear.
