what are your favorite tech grifts? mine is every few years someone tries to invent a "smart gun" like in metal gear solid and then literally not a single person wants to buy it and all the police unions have said they will go on strike if they are mandated on cops and then the company goes bankrupt. I think the only exception was mossberg somehow survived without a bankruptcy but even bigger companies like smith and wesson. The smith and wesson one was hilarious

that's not a smart gun. "smart guns" are guns with some kind of electronic lock that blocks anyone other than the designated user from firing the gun, see the guns in metal gear solid. so like a fingerprint detector or some kind of RIFD chip

>range data
small cheap laser range finders already exist
>wind data
probably impossible to get in most situations unless you send drones out to measure the wind along the path you want to shoot
otherwise you can measure the wind at the location of the gun but that's not that accurate
either way you don't need a "smart gun" for that bullshit you just need a "smart scope" but of course that's not such a juicy idea and doesn't make as much profit so Amerimutt corporations won't consider it

I think it was pretty much all through hole back then. Through hole is optimized for ease of doing it by hand. You poke the legs through the holes, and can bend the legs to hold a bunch of them in place so you can place a lot and then flip it and quickly solder all of them. Surface mount is possible to do by hand but kind of a pain in the ass, and is really optimized for machines. Humans could precisely set all the components with their ends in the little beads of pre-tinned or paste solder and then put it in an oven, but it's tedious and too easy to bump already placed components. You can also solder a lot of them with an iron, but that's a pain in the ass and only really done for repairs.

These chips don’t typically run LLMs, they do stuff like background blur, computer vision models for photo tagging, noise reduction, OCR, maybe audio transcription. In short they’re used for actually useful things, but are useless for any of the shit people are marketing to death. You’re not running an LLM on them. The issue is of course, you do not need an NPU to run any of these models, and they’re typically annoying to get stuff running on that isn’t built specifically for them.

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

I got a house recently and want to move in later on this year.
But the walls are all made of concrete.
what would be best to get some cable running?
I want to have cams around the house and 2-3 AP in roaming mode, and if possible direct wire connection to the server.
Any ideas?
I don't want to spend some large sum of money on removing plaster to put some cables.
I was thinking of setting some sort of wireless bridge to handle connection to the outside without drilling holes.
What do you think?
