Okay, thanks for chiming in. Because I also game on PC, I think I’ll scrap the AI server idea and stick with a desktop workstation that will do both gaming and AI tasks.

ETA good point about being able to remote into the desktop workstation from other devices.

Gotcha, so for AI and gaming (dual purpose), I may as well incorporate both into one rig (a desktop workstation) is what you’re suggesting, right?

try to sneakily make me register passcodes

Can you expand on this? I’m not sure what this means. Is it like instead of a full fledged password, just a four digit PIN or something? Thanks.

How does one find such retired laptops? As an individual hobbyist in the US, would I just monitor eBay, Craigslist, or Facebook?

No, no limits, we’ll reach for the skyyyy

Noice! I am able to find this very thread through searxng, which seems to behave like an actual search engine with its own search results page, but I couldn’t find it through fedi-search, which seems to be little more than an auto redirect tool.

https://fedi-search.com/

Hmm, this sounds like a really cool idea, but it doesn’t seem to do what I thought it would. For example, I went to https://fedi-search.com/ and searched for “stop internet searching” expecting to find this very thread, but alas, no dice.

Photos, we need photos!

cute cat, thanks for sharing!

Suppose those of us who’ve missed the bus want to get a copy of the content from before the 20th, is that still available? In other words, do they offer downloads of older versions of the content?

You find the nopic version is still usable? I haven’t used the offline content, but I feel like no images would leave me wanting more. Then again, for what it is, it’s still pretty awesome, and I understand that storage space is a consideration.

Well said. People all over the internet recommend Logseq as a FOSS Obsidian clone. It has a lot going for it, but the biggest thing stopping me from using Logseq is the forced bullet lists. Ugh

Those cats are notorious for over heating. You’ll wanna invest in a nice case with good air flow, maybe spring for a new cooler.

We walked uphill both ways.

Is she an only cat?

Does PipePipe allow the user to log into their Google account, though?

Other responses have covered the “not without being logged into Google” part, so I’ll just add that if you don’t care about being logged into Google and the thing you want from a front end is Sponsor Block, then yes: YouTube in a browser with the Sponsor Block extension. On Android, the YouTube app w/ Revanced accomplishes the same thing.
