   I've got some idle servers in my basement in Bulgaria with lots of GPUS. I'm actually in Cambodia at the moment. I've actually been playing with some similar ideas. Message me if you like. :)

   I'd be surprised if more 'hackable' watches didn't pop up around the Sifli chips. Lilygo have an upcoming device with Sifli 52 chip. There's the SF32LB52-ULP smartwatch development board.

    I'll drop this here: If anyone wants to work on Language Reactor (well compensated), my email is in my profile. I'm planning to start open-sourcing much of it soon.

    I use Firebase SDK with the FirebaseUI library on languagereactor.com. When users access the /login page, if the extension is detected, the signInSuccessWithAuthResult callback triggers getFirebaseSignInToken to obtain a custom token.

    The security against downloading audio from YouTube has been upped recently with 'PO tokens'. Whisper is only a few tenths of a cent per hour transcribed if transcribing on your gpu though, at about 30x real-time on a 3080 etc. wi

    Is it possible a similar patch would work for P2P on 3090s? btw, I found a Gigabyte board on Taobao that is unlisted on their site: MZF2-AC0, costs $900. 2 socket Epyc and 10 PCIE slots, may be of interest. A case that should fit, with 2x 2

    You can fit a SAS card (like LSI 9207-8e) and hook up external disk shelves (like ds4246). This gear is on ebay and is mostly plug and play on linux.
