can you recommend a setup with ollama and a cli tool? Do you know if I need a licence for Claude if I only use my own local LLM?

It seems that this is only in place at the security entering the terminal. I landed in Heathrow a few days ago and had to empty out my water bottle (which I got given on the flight to the UK) for the transfer security check.

We once stayed in a beach house with an outdoor shower in South Africa. One morning I got up, took a shower (without my glasses, I am very short sighted) and went in for breakfast. About 20 minutes later my sister-in-law comes running into

Fully agree. Walking towards the address I came around a corner and my jaw dropped. Still get goosebumps thinking of that moment. Sadly inside was a construction site with no lighting (this was around 2003), would love to go back and see it

Around 2001 I worked for one of the big dot com news outlets. In our reception we had a PC with a browser set up where people could "use the internet" while they waited. One day the receptionist asked me to fix the PC as it wasn&#

As others have mentioned, this resonates well. But for me, not only biology. Looking back, I wish my history teacher had done something similar; taken me by the shoulders and shook me until I really understood what we were learning. Instead

That's a very good idea, probably also the easiest to implement since my set up is API driven.

I LOVE the simplicity of it!

Would pumping up into a tank in the roof work? Any idea of the amount of energy vs weight can be stored?

I have a heat pump driven boiler and I do run it when the excess is available - it uses 500W, so I'm still left with a potential 2-2.5kW. I can of course set the boiler hotter, but then I'm just wearing out the components to lose

Sure, 30kW storage is fine, but it implies you use all the energy every day (or night). In the summer months my current set up uses basically 0 grid hours (as I already have some storage for night time). The 30% really is an excess after st

Looking through some of the points above, I was somehow reminded of Johnny Mnemonic, where he puts together a computer to get online. Based on today's reality he wouldn't need all the most modern, hard core parts, but actually as

They have similar limits in Europe already. Is this also the case in the US?

Generally you lie in the water in a wetsuit for buoyancy. The spotter holds on to you to make sure you don't float out to sea (in our case). They also check on you by prompting you to give an "okay" indication (by lifting a f

I think the difference is that in the US you are allowed to turn right (in many cases) on red. Here in Germany it generally isn't allowed, so bikes have right of way over traffic turning / crossing over the bike lane
