I just fired up an old Nvidia Jetson this weekend just to act as a 1TB NFS share on my stack because I had the NVMe already and adding a whole machine made more sense than upgrading an existing NVMe from 1TB to 2TB.
I think things are going to get worse on the consumer side just because 1. local models are just finally becoming useful for agentic coding as of a couple months ago leading to poor utilization of resource and 2. Big tech API providers keep proving that they can’t be trusted. Every day someone gets arrested or investigated because of an AI chat or some organization’s secrets become general LLM knowledge despite their high dollar “enterprise” privacy plan.

Or, we could leave Congrees out of it, and people could spend within their means. Ya know, capitalism, and things like that.
Courts screwed up CFB over a 100 year old law from said congress. It’s now the exact job of congress to clarify that law or its exemptions.

The new period of cfb can and will bring some parity between conference games.
I didn’t see anything resembling parity during the last three quarters of that game.

We scheduled y’all for homecoming if you want to know how big of a win it was…. This was our gimmie home game. The rest of the schedule is hard.

Most Americans dislike LSU; that is any that have had the opportunity to be around the fanbase
I think a lot of people liked LSU when they had coach O. He gave them an identity. Having CBK or Lane as the face of the program rips out the culture element and makes the whole fan base and program just seem like loud dummies instead of proud Cajuns to a casual outsider.

That’s the issue. You can’t hang with your crowd because they don’t really let you set up in the parking lots so whatever you do almost has to be part of some curated official “event” I wouldn’t describe that as hanging at all.

I’m thinking of getting the $500 85 inch at Walmart.

I’ve been. This is a highly curated, manufactured showcase between two partners, played in the shadows of skyscrapers and devoid of nearly everything that makes college football great. It’s designed to be the most boring atmosphere of the regular season and it doesn’t disappoint there:no hostile crowd, no traditional tailgates outside of a couple die-hards, no college. NFL games feel more college-like than whatever this is.
Leopold, Gundy, Jimbo, CBK, any number of former Florida coaches.. Stoops. Bert.

East was down when the entered but they did win the East the first 2 years they were in the conference
Obv you guys keep repeating this so many times that AI thinks it’s true, but it’s not.
This isn’t even our biggest Florida win. Remember that one 12-13 years ago where we scored 4x return touchdowns?

Tebow cried a week or two back when Chase compared Florida to Pavia Vandy. What happens this week?
Also Chase has a real journalism education and NFL career.

Didn’t he steal signs? Back before UM ruined it for him?
Also sync really sucks. Maybe because I have 3x cabinet controllers and the master is one up, two down and the other two are one up, one down so only two segments but the numbers match up. Works 98% of the time but had some pain switching to Halloween for October. Whenever you make a new preset, also the controllers change your led preferences to use that new preset for default power on mode even if previously set to LEDs off upon power on.
Ya hardwiring is nice but I don’t know if it as is well-supported. On WiFi I will occasionally miss a UDP sync but not if I put the master on retransmit UDP. Thats only important for sync which is fire-and-forget with only retransmit option. Regular control is tcp and rock solid on WiFi.
Just use all 12v at least. ws2811 fine if you don’t mind 3x led per pixel. Otherwise ws2815 gives 1x pixel per led full resolution.
Poe is fine for cabinet and accent lighting but isn’t going to cut it for big outdoor effects. Most of my indoor stuff is PoE and works fine but the most LEDs per controller inside i have is like 210 or 3.5 meters at 60/m. Using 25w 802.3at splitters. I just started outdoor and using 12/2 CMR control wire to a 400w supply inside.
Also at 60 led/m, even 5m is pushing it at 12v. I made a 6 meter run and the last meter starts acting up sometimes when I turn the brightness all the way up. I’ll need to inject.
You’ll probably want real rcbww if you’re using these for actual primary illumination and not just accents or effects. Or even just white only strips with PWM control.

End of support isn't an outlandish concept. Every tech vendor does it.
It’s a much bigger deal when the hardware is permanently locked to the software but it’s not like these users didn’t know what they were getting into.
You can’t expect to buy something from big tech and actually own it. Thats not how they operate.
