I hate the religion, I hate that there’s even a pope. But this guy, He’s the fucking best.

The problem is we are very very sensitive to rotten food.

Water and soap will do very little to remove any of that if that’s bound itself to the plastic.

You could use a high pH solution to try to tear up any organics. An extended soak in week hydrogen peroxide or a soak in a light lye solution might get the job done.

Ozone, sunlight, retrobrite, barkeeper’s friend, vinegar they’re all trying to do the same thing destroy those organics left on the plastic. But in some cases that stuff just binds and there’s not that much you can do about it.

To be perfectly honest they’re all fine. Most of the major distributions are install it and run it. If you try one and you don’t like it don’t get discouraged try another. If you have trouble getting your hardware working on one try a different one.

I mean why not, Light, structural. They’re not going to stand up to any damage taken no matter what they make them out of they’re just not big enough

There’s a lot of people out there that hate to hear this, but ubuntu is probably the best gateway to Linux we have at the moment. Go ahead, let them come in on the distro that’s pretty well supported, preconfigured with everything on and newbie friendly, then once they’ve cut their teeth, let they have the option to move to something that’s a little more tweaked.

I dont need them for the smart, I need their menus to be consistently fast for automation. Response time for input changes, menus disappearing timely after boot.

When we buy $300 50" ‘specials’ and I start pumping IR at them for timed remote automation they always get hung up and start missing steps.

Dex could have been the dream. That wm, it’s soo bad. Then the apps have too much control over their resize and only one instance of an app running.

I could have daily driven it if it was just a little more consistent

Play media from USB or local Plex yes.

Display IP cameras

Really expensive alarm clock

Is an airplane still an airplane if it never flies?

Yeah, I needed some 70" for work displays had to spend like hell to go top of the line to get half assed quad cores.

Most likely offline or firewalled to Hades.

It could be that, or they just really know their community. If the cost of getting it working on steam deck and maintaining it is not substantially less than the income brought from the platform It doesn’t make any sense to utilize the platform.

For the most part of the CLI methods are unified. If they’re not exactly the same they are very very close from distro to distro.

But the GUI method to add users and groups is all over the place.

I need to do a simple action in Windows, one search, The control has been there for several versions of Windows not necessarily unchanged but definitely in the same general location.

OSX same deal you need to add users groups modify network it’s all been the same place for ages.

Now someone’s trying out Linux, Where’s my network configuration, where’s my user configuration, where’s my group configuration. When the answer to that becomes well what distro, what window manager, we turn away a lot of neophites.

I will one up you. I’d like to see something that shows body temperature, 02 saturation, and heart rate. Needs to be about the size of a grain of race and implanted in us right after birth. DING, your child has a fever. DING, your child is suffocating in their sleep.

Yes, the answer to how do I create a new user and new groups should not be well, what distro and window manager are you using?

When the conspiracy theory said Gates was doing it, it was the end of days.

Now that musk is doing it, it’ll be sliced bread 2.0.

Tell me, did you miss OP’s actual post “This could be similar to a home inventory app where users only need to capture video and move around the house instead of taking pictures and labeling items. When do you think will there be an Android app for real-time visual inventory?”

Or are you just moving the goal posts to insult me?

Volumetric likeness would make it pretty easy too generate a report of likely false positives., 3D spacial pictures of each individual item detected. 3D special pictures of items not detected.

The reports generated out of it would make it incredibly easy for human to adjust as long as the atoms weren’t tucked away in a box or something.

Honestly for say fire purposes it’s going to be able to detect your fridge, your oven, your TVs, your sound system your computers mostly. If they’re off by a $10 drinking thermos or something they’re not really going to care

So, this is totally doable right now. The resolution and frame rates are there, AI being able to look at individual items on a screen and figure out what’s in the picture is already a mostly solved problem. It would probably make the most sense to turn the space into a 3D representation so you don’t accidentally double catch an item from a parallax error. It might not be able to tell the day TV is a frame versus a q LED, but it’ll be able to tell that it’s a 75-in TV and they can probably assign an average price to it.

The hard part is the horsepower required to do the AI work. It would need to be trained on pictures and sizes everything and of the things that are too complicated it would prompt you for what this item actually is. Lots of CPU, lots of GPU and would most likely need to head off to a beefy server farm where would need to spend a non-trivial amount of time sorting your stuff out.

Of course the real loser in all this is your insurance company. The less stuff you have on your inventory less stuff they pay out. To convince them too create the training data and host or pay for hosting the engines, There would have to be some clear advantage in it for them.

Other people’s software is great, what was asked is why the Apple hate.

Apple doesn’t provide Homebrew, Apple updates *in the past have occasionally broken it horribly. (Looking at you El Capitan)

But while we are taking a look at home brew, If you need a specific version of something you are occasionally up a creek. It’s been a hot few years since I was daily driving OSX *as my primary, but when I needed a certain version of memcache or a certain version of netcat for a feature, It just wasn’t there and then compiling it for the OS was a far bigger pain in the ass than it is on any Linux distro.

Oh god yeah that’s the fate of snap and flat pack.

Install OBS studio, current version has some issues oh look there’s a flat pack install the flat pack instead. OBS runs great. Oh, I need some plugins Go to install the plugins, The plugins folder isn’t where it belongs. I scrape along and find the plugins folder I try to shove them in there doesn’t work. Oh I need to find the flat pack installer for the plugin… But half the s*** I want isn’t available.

I truly appreciate them trying to make things more universal and easier. But it’s a fine line we’re walking between easy but unconfigurable and non-standard complicated but flexible.
