Even I got an SE at the start . Foundation stuff is critical. Even if I posted on here still want an SE to spec and check . So op post details for sure . But get an SE aswell . This isn’t going to be a few hundred quid if you (expletive deleted) up . Once foundations are done you can just wing it like me and not give a (expletive deleted) .

All testing completed! No issues . Full deployment tomorrow!

Got my new probe . Cant wait to stick it in .

The fitting at the wall end is fixed to the spring base - so it is just 1 hole .

This spring gate closer was a tough (expletive deleted) to install . After under a year it’s pulling out the quoin . Assume quoin is quite soft . What fixing do I need so this mofo doesn’t pull out ?

Yeah I meant about the bar keepers friend 😉

Tell me more!

Tested uma8 . Really good . Sensitive enough and direction of speech can be retrieved .

Already ahead of you . Got a usb powered fan to install

Don’t know ; “ Andrews a nonce “ ???

First proper test … A few issues ( software and hardware ) but my ugly newborn lives !

Dr. Frankenstein would be proud of my beast . Work in progress but getting there .

(expletive deleted)ing depth sensor ! It’s shite ! Or at least the beam is so wide it’s useless in a water barrel

Ain’t got any . Using abs

My cad skills limited

No . The box is bought. The internal white support thing to house cores3 , speaker , amp etc - needs redesigning

Deployed ! Loads of issues with the 3d printed case . I’ll rethink that .

M5 soonish . But marginal gain ? Price hikes because of inflated ram costs ? 2nd or “ opened but never used “ m3 ultra on ebay . What do we prioritise ? ram , gpu , cpu 64gb good - but more is better for larger models newer architecture ( m4 latest ) give a performance boost at a cost gpu more cores oh ! Apple have finance options …. That’s trouble . I won’t look …. 0% finance upto 12 months , or 4.9% for longer . That’s pretty low interest . I won’t look I’m not looking Could order . Then if m5 “ better “ relative to cost could cancel I won’t look looked , ordered !

Yes and yes

My other thread “ voice control “ is bollocks Anyone looked at how these work ? (expletive deleted)ing amazing ! . I mean what a LLM does engineering wise ! Been reading non stop all weekend! The possibilities are mind boggling . Local llm is going to be insane …. I’m so excited ! (expletive deleted) me ! Couple this with multiple microphone arrays . Jesus ! Stay tuned for insanity and “ Wow (expletive deleted) me “ moments . Nerds only need respond to this thread others can (expletive deleted) about with dpc and which happy meal to order .

Now you can (expletive deleted) about for another 10 yrs like me on other projects !

Seriously I thought he was skimming it with that deliberate non evenness - because most of the house is that style anyway .

Swmbo’s friend ( I don’t have any myself ) asked me to look at some skimming they were having done . It’s a 1800 cottage or something - you know exposed brick , exposed timbers . I went in the lounge where the plasterer was . ” Alright mate , that looks good I like how you’ve made it look uneven to fit the character of the house “ I said His face dropped and he responded “ that’s flat mate “ I said no more . Perhaps it was the light . But I think my cocks flatter than that (expletive deleted)ing wall !

(expletive deleted) ! That’s smart mate !!

Then you shouldn’t be (expletive deleted)ing about on a chimney stack . Jump over a few streets and get it in there my man ! 💪
