    Well, considering the UK is not interested in helping him, and you’re probably right, we should perhaps be more concerned with Russia or a similar country picking him up for state sponsored cyberattacks or some shit.

    Kid seems to be in it for the chaos and notoriety. That could cause quite a bit of harm in the right state environment.

    I recently used it to update my resume with great success. But I also didn’t just blindly trust it.

    Gave it my resume and then asked it to edit my resume to more closely align with a guide I found on Harvards website. Gave it the guide as well and it spit out a version of mine that much more closely resembled the provided guide.

    Spent roughly 5 minutes editing the new version to correct for any problems it had and boom. Half an hour of worked parsed down to sub 10

    I then had it use my new resume (I gave it a copy of the edited version) and asked it to write me a cover letter for a job (I provided the job description)

    Boom. Cover letter. I spent about 10 minutes editing that piece. And then that new resume and cover letter lead to an interview and subsequent job offer.

    AI is a tool not an all in one solution.

    They’ve seemed rather committed to replaceable parts. I think they’ll keep supporting it. Guess I’ll have to keep hoping a third party higher refresh rate screen comes out sometime. Im sure higher capacity batteries will eventually too

    Wonder if they’ll release the OLED screen as it’s own part so previous owners can upgrade themselves.

    I’ve no interest in the third party 1200p screen since I don’t need the hardware to struggle even more more resolution but a 90hz refresh rate would be great

    I can get several terabytes of storage on it. If I end up making heavy use of this I can migrate the library to a NAS using the Thinkserver afterwards

    Seems from some rudimentary googling here that I may have drastically overestimated the hardware requirements for 2 or 3 4k streams. Seems the UHD 630 may be the move so I can save on power

    I’m a PC gaming enthusiast and work in IT support so I’m very comfortable working on PC’s etc but just have never gotten into media encoding/decoding so I really am unfamiliar with the capabilities of UHD 630 and if it can handle the load

    Using the external HDD mounts I could give it several terabytes of storage (though many more on the TD340 of course)

    Plex noob looking for advice

    Hey guys, I’ve never used Plex before but am looking to set up a server this week for me and my family as streaming bills are getting out of control. I have a small library of legally acquired media that will work as a good test before I go sailing for the rest. I have a Thinkserver TD340 desktop with dual xeons and space for many hard drives that I was going to use simply due to its HDD capacity (12c24t combined and 64gb RAM) However they’re sandy bridge Xeon’s and not very power efficient. However I can put a Quadro P2000 GPU in it for hardware accelerated transcoding The other idea I have is I have access to an HP SFF PC with an i5 8400T and a few external hard drive mounts I could plug into power in the wall and USB to the PC This is smaller and saves power but forgoes GPU acceleration leaving me with only Intel UHD 630 graphics. It’s also only 6 cores/threads but they are much faster. I also want whichever system I use to run pi-hole for DNS level ad blocking. But that’s very light and shouldn’t be an issue to run at the same time. Am I overthinking this? I have access to both systems. Which would be best. At most maybe 3 people would be accessing it at once. Across iPhones, smart TVs etc

    The prequels had a great overarching story but suffered from poor dialogue and a lack of details. The story beats were there. They just needed to be fleshed out.

    I’m not sure sure the sequel trilogy can be fleshed out in a way that resolves it. But I’ll certainly watch any attempts they make!

    Well that explains why Ahsoka wasn’t around for the sequel trilogy lol

    Leaves some questions about Ezra though. And as pleased as I am with what their story did and where it ended it leaves a lot to be desired from the sequel trilogy. More than it already left.

    You’re going to tell me that Thrawn showed up with an undead army from another galaxy and there’s not even a mention of that in the trilogy?

    I really enjoyed this show. But it just frustrates me with the sequels more than I already was.
