The problem is that it can only be speculated how they work, because they have not published it. That is quite suspicious in my book.

I personally would avoid reolink and use rtsp + frigate + ha, to have full control with known open source selfhosting solution.

I understand that people like the easy setup, but if you already do selfhosting, it isn't that big jump.

Be careful with reolink, their P2P solution is pretty suspicious. No body really knows how it works and who it shares the data with.

You can disable those features, but it will stop reolink app from working.

They have never explained how the peer-2-peer network works, and it security and privacy is quite unknown.

Reolink is Chinese, which doesn't really help these concerns.

Better to selfhost frigate and just rtsp cameras there.

Google is so shit nowadays, it's main purpose is to sell you things, not to actually retrieve the things you ask.

Mainly you see this with coding related questions, they were much better 5 years ago. Now only way to get results is to ask LLM and hope it doesn't hallusinate some library that doesn't exist.

Part of the issue is that SEO got better and google stopped changing things to avoid SEO manipulation.

I must admit, my home rack server runs hyper-v, it is free and I have MSDN. Of course inside the hyper-v I run ten linux boxes.

Proxmox really didn't exists before and I didn't want to use VMware.

Next one I will do with proxmox.

Please dont judge me.

Did you miss that open ai released the oss model few days prior to gpt5?

Larger model: https://huggingface.co/openai/gpt-oss-120b Smaller model: https://huggingface.co/openai/gpt-oss-20b

They seem to be quite good

Not saying that openai would be the good guys here, but I believe they are realizing that they are behind on local models.

Using a bad translation/transcript as base for professional translator is still better than nothing. Like I said, translators are still going to be needed, but lots of the heavy manual work can be now automated.

Also often when very domain specific language is used, the translation made by human can be bad, because they don't know the proper terms. Of course good professional translators will ask these. It is also something that must be done with these dummy LLM models, you cannot just throw text into it and expect good results.

That is probably true in many case, buy to be fair there are some jobs that have had huge impacts due to LLM's, like translation.

These jobs have been changing quite a lot before this AI bubble mainly because advances in speech-to-text, but I see the LLM's as final step. The translator need doesn't fully disappear, but the workflow changes quite drastically and some labor heavy parts are going away.

Note: I am not talking as AI being some hype AGI, just the LLM tech, which is basically advanced auto complete.

If microtransactions are part of gameplay, they always lead to grind design that pushes to purchase to avoid the grind. If gameplay is fun without grind, why would anyone buy microtransactions.

Cosmetics can be done well with transactions, but those are near non-existent today. There was few in the beginning, but probably they don't sell enough for corporate overlords.

No Internet Explorer (replaced by probably JavaScript app)

Calling these new LLM's just if statements is quite a over simplification. These are technically something that has not existed before, they do enable use cases that previously were impossible to implement.

This is far from General Intelligence, but there are solutions now to few coding issues that were near impossible 5 years ago

5 years ago I would have laughed in your face if you came to suggest that can you code a code that summarizes this description that was inputed by user. Now I laugh that give me your wallet because I need to call API or buy few GPU's.
