  • Huh. Thought it was stock standard AOSP - perhaps the Aussie version is different? There are a few rebranded versions of the same hardware; you might be able to find something non proprietary. I think the underlying model is UNIWA if you want to go spelunk direct listings

    Where did you find the info that the TTFone uses a fork - XDA? Possibly it can take CFW?

    In any case, if it’s no go, it’s no go.

    PS: The other target might be a the Cat 22 flip but that thing has a face only a mother could love. I have seen clean CFW of the Duoquin models too - multiple threads on XDA - but that’s candybar not flip

    PPS: let me spelunk the 8020 for a minute. I have to imagine it’s an off the shelf re-badge. EDIT: Hmm…looks like it’s bespoke enough to NOT be a simple Shenzhen rebadge job.









  • You know the fun part is you could just about use a 750 zip disk to steam video. Read speeds are about 7.5mb/s…enough for 1-2 simultaneous 480p Jellyfin streams.

    Shit…everybody about RAID and here we are suggesting RAIT. No school like old school.

    I still think the “DVD shuffler clockwork JF server with AI upscale” idea would be more fun to build tho, because as stupid as it sounds, the maths adds up. It would be gloriously cursed, but 3000+ hours of video is 3000 + hours of video.



  • Depends what era but generally yes. Xbox 360 seem to be in the 3-6GB range, Wii / GameCube in the 1-2GB range. Older gens are ofc smaller.

    My entire gaming library is approx 200gb, but it’s curated, retro / indy focused (early 2000s to mid 2010’s)

    (Mind you, those top out at 320GB per cartridge)

    Kidding aside, for deep storage…?

    LTO-8 is 12TB native per cartridge. A used LTO can be as little as $300 USD with a 12TB cart $65ish. Ancient LTO-3 can be had for like…$5…and stores upto 800GB per tape.

    So…if it’s deep storage you want…that’s one insane option.

    OTOH if you’re looking for a Jellyfin streamer…they’re tape, so random access would suck bad. You’d genuinely be better off optical media at that point lol

    Though if we’re time travelling… DVD shufflers (400+ DVDs) were a thing for a minute. You’d have to write bridge software because they’re HDMI and com port only…hmm. Checking quickly, they seem to go for $100 USD…is this even possible…? You’d be limited to 1 stream at a time, but I can see a way to share that across multiple TVs with HDMI splitter…hmm…how do I carry RF remote signal from each room back to main unit…oh, I don’t need to, could I make a web ui that controls the shuffler via a Pi to RS-232, that you access on your phone?..Shit…i could do this.

    $300…I could do this. I could make a clock work Jellyfin server…

    No, stop. This is a dangerous rabbit hole.

    PS: shit - I just thought of two better options - and one of them is even semi sane (store video at 480-540p on DVD as mkv, use Nvidia shield to upscale on fly to 1080p). Back of envelope maths suggests this would be around 3000 movies.

    I should not be online this late at night with easy access to credit card.


  • Oh, it’s a MoE? That makes sense.

    If you’re getting MiMo at -ctx 85K … you’re within spitting distance of SOTA. You can do real work with that.

    I take it MiMo doesn’t do the Qwen “hyperventilate into a paper bag” loop as --ctx increases. Qwen’s seem to be really sensitive to that at lower quants.

    I’m using 27B via OR API and I swear the diff providers use entirely diff quants. Sometimes you get a genius and other times a drooling mess.

    You know, after last week, I’ve landed on the position that this is an intractable debate. Both sides have valid points and neither side is willing to concede or meet in the middle. That’s just people.

    Ironically, I think both sides want he same thing - no bots, no slop.

    To that end, for the proper functioning of this group, I think that the wisdom of having an AI tag (even though I personally think it’s a blunt tool) is probably the only productive way forward. The pro and anti sides will not see eye to eye…but at least with [AI] tag, maybe the worst excesses of both may be mitigated.

    Cynically, if we look at Reddit as a “what not to do” example…the only thing that stops Lemmy from becoming Reddit 2.0 is friction. The tag provides friction.

    Anything that stops the real slop invasion (ala r/localllm et al) is a big plus. I’d like to think that almost all of the users here are savvy enough to tell slop from real, but at the end of the day, if every other post becomes slop, it gets exhausting to deal with.

    Bot posts on Lemmy have been on the rise, as (presumably) people migrate from Reddit and bots follow.

    If the new community rules + AI tags can mitigate both slop and the FuckAI crowd, I’m for trying it.

    EDIT: I think the [AIT] proposed else where is better than straight [AI] tag.
