His idea would be cool if not for the lindy effect: each one of his "tests" has a somewhat low probability of extending his life by a few months / years.

However each of his tests, as they are new, also has a smaller probability of having ruin effect: killing him or leaving him disabled in the process. Multiplying the treatments increases significantly the downside risks (1 failure is enough) while the positive will not compound (you will need many of them to work to see a significant effect).

No, but protecting x/xAI from bankruptcy by linking it to the most promising company in Musk's portfolio does. You just need a justification.

This is while they try to find a solution to earn money with it.

I discovered "secret level" on prime recently where there is an episode on UT2004 (with the original sound effects like "killing spree !!!" ). With this additional news, I now want to run it again...

Looking at the fact there are currently no active electricity generating fusion power plants, and we do not know which technology will "win", how likely is this a waste of money ? Or am I missing a point ?

Really nice tutorial, and great experiment, however, at home, I would prefer to stay within a much narrower power budget like 5-10 watts max for the router. This one seems in the 40watts-60watts.

50 machines at hetzner

- install machines with ansible (using hetzner scripts for OS install)

- machines communicate over vswitch/vlans, external interfaces disabled whenever possible. Pay attention to the custom mtu trick.

- harden machines, unattended-upgrades mandatory on each machine

- ssh open with IP whitelists from iptables on gateways

- machines organized as k8s clusters, took ~1 year to have everything working cleanly

- everything deployed as k8s resources (kustomize, fluxcd, gitops)

- use keepalived for external IPs with floating IPs for ingress on 3 machines per cluster

Machines are managed as cattle, it takes <1h+ hetzner provisioning time to add as many machines as we need.

Works great for me as is. The fact that no android app is necessary is so great. The improvements I would see:

- have a qrcode when running the server instead of displaying the url, much more practical

- have a "relative cursor mode" to behave like a usual trackpad, where you move the cursor from its current position. I am not interested in seeing my display on the phone, just use it as a trackpad while looking at my display.

The 40% Keyboard 7 years ago

Actually, a programmable keyboard is great for lefties, you can have a numpad on a layer on the left part of your keyboard. Ah, and move the WASD and gaming keys to the right of the keyboard without having to modify all the games each time you play.
