Come to think of it, would it also be possible to remove (or at least physically disconnect on motherboard) microphone and camera from an ideapad?

Yeah it’s an M1 16GB, sounds awesome I’ll try, thanks a lot for the guide it’s super helpful. I just got the Mac Mini for jellyfin but this is an unexpected use case where the server comes in very handy.

I run a Mac Mini as a home server because it’s great for hardware transcoding, I was wondering if I could host an LLM locally. I work with python so that wouldn’t be an issue but I have no idea how to do CUDA or work on low level code. Is there anything I need to consider? Would probably start with a really small model.

Very interesting. How secure is this against having a compromised device? I‘m really paranoid that someone would somehow have a backdoor into my systems and snatch stuff I host on my own

I would definitely take some selfies if I just headshotted Osama. Like they were allegedly doing some epic firefight with him inside his bedroom? Least you can do is pose with him. But no pictures at all? I smell bullshit.

Okay that was me shitposting, but seriously, if you take down Osama out of nowhere after 10 years of silence, the lack of any kind of proof is very fishy imo.

The Bin Laden killing was a hoax. That guy died year ago because he was on dialysis machines that wouldn’t really function well somewhere deep in the Pakistani mountains. Or maybe he was actually in that house they raided at some point. But the message came out of nowhere like around the time of the reelection campaign. And they never showed a body. But then they even came up with some BS excuse that a sea burial would be Islamic tradition. Also if they really found him why wouldn’t they just arrest him and give him a process? I’m not buying it.

Next to what everyone already said let me just mention I also returned recently after being out for like 10 years and the progress is amazing. If you’re willing to selfhost, Servarr is super amazing, my whole family got away from Netflix and I have a huge bullshit free library of stuff to watch.

Ah got it: https://simplex.chat/downloads/#desktop-app

You can link your mobile device with desktop to use the same profile remotely, but this is only possible when both devices are connected to the same local network.

That’s cool I’ll look into that, any alternative to a centralized service that requires phone number auth is appreciated and I think competition will make these apps only better.

I like SimpleX because you can self host, create hidden profiles and even throwaway invite links. What platforms are you missing for SimpleX? I think you can run it on Android, iPhone and through Fdroid plus you could even run it on Tails. I don’t really need interconnectivity so never tried it, but I think it exists.

Anyway, for me it really doesn’t matter, just stumbled upon SimpleX and liked it. But the more alternatives the better.

Simplex works without a phone number though.
