There’s a psychic in the movie that tells Peewee that the bicycle he lost is in the basement of the Alamo – the joke being that this is one of many instances where Peewee’s naivety gets the better of him, sending him off in another odd direction. The plot continually plays off his innocence.

Nowadays, visitors to the Alamo reference the question on tours as a running joke.

Here’s the post so you don’t have to hop into the article

I own this hat and it is everything I hoped it would be

OP is hittin’ us with the moth-related content we crave (and deserve)

Loved these ridiculous films, as they never once purported to be anything other than the fun, over-the-top robo-action roller coasters that they were – not too serious, but not too shlocky. A blast, all around.

It’s all computer

Based on how much the institutions of the US will continue to uphold, I think we’ll see the impact in 10 years or more. Hopefully, though – granted, hope isn’t an operational term, just an ideal – there will be some measure of course correction within that decade.

Last I recall, friendica was the most solid alternative. It is a fairly feature-complete analogue of Facebook and a few other social platforms. Maybe give it a look!

What a fantastic shot!

Ah, suck face, get sad

Plug the power into a 4090 RTX improperly, and you may get that burning for free!

Nexus phones were the best

GrapheneOS affords you the ability to have completely isolated and distinct phone profiles, where you can install all your required work apps. They are installed separate from your main profile, kind of like second or third phone. No need for a completely different device.

GrapheneOS instantiates an improved version of this feature that Android already offers. It’s a great way to keep things separate. I do the same. Who wants to stuff their pockets or bags with more phones?

You can read about that here.

1. Pixel, and immediately install GrapheneOS.
2. A Linux based phone, like the PinePhone or Purism 5, and run your Android apps (if desired) inside Waydroid.

HELL YEAH BROTHER

Hello! I recently deployed GPUStack, a self-hosted GPU resource manager.

It helps you deploy AI models across clusters of GPUs, regardless of network or device. Got a Mac? It can toss a model on there and route it into an interface. Got a VM on a sever somewhere? Same. How about your home PC, with that beefy gaming GPU? No prob. GPUStack is great at scaling what you have on hand, without having to deploy a bunch of independent instances of ollama, llama.ccp, etc.

I use it to route pre-run LLMs into Open WebUI, another self-hosted interface for AI interactions, via the OpenAI API that both GPUStack and Open WebUI support!

Yes! There are a lot of interesting intersections of emerging tech with XR, like AI-assisted digital engineering / model-based system engineering, millimeter-accurate training in some newer headsets, and data visualization with AI-assisted decision making for digital twins / digital threads. The news isn’t quick to pick up on this, though.

I have come across a lot of this new tech that, on its own, may not have many cases for regular use, but together put it all at a tipping point for greater adoption. Goes well beyond gaming.
