  @JMW_BOYZ The problem is that in places like here we have voices and the absolute fraction of us that comment seem to think in one certain way. I love going to CeX and buying bags full of DvD's for a buck a pop. I picked up a PS1/PS3/XboxOG and have a mountain of old games that I used to play or want to play for mere fraction of the price. But those are brick and mortar with things like rent/employees/insurance/utilities. Massive overhead. The real truth is that it's pretty clear CeX gets the majority of their stuff for nothing or close to it, with a lot of 'new' stuff being overstock/damage from high street retail. Physical media has been dying for ages, and I get it. I have a massive amount in steam. When I had lost everything I physically owned it was so nice to login to steam, and still retain everything. The larger issue is that Valve is the outlyer, I don't think people would mind so much if it wasn't for megacorps like SONY who treat a 'sale' more like a decade rental. Even my Apple store stuff is mostly all gone now. Funny how people don't cry about that one.

  I had to get some more alerts before I could reply to you since I can only use the bottom half of my touchscreen. Problems I never thought of in the year 2005! I do have to give a shout out to the Apple Store. They helped me when I was totally locked out of my account even though I bought my phone from a third-party and walked in with a cracked screen I honestly thought they were gonna be the worst and turned me away and the guy spent like an hour and a half with me

  Reclaiming Your Device The man walked out of the Apple Store that afternoon with his original battery still inside his phone and his eighty nine dollars still safely tucked into his pocket. A week later, he sent the Genius Bar worker a short message. He was finishing his entire work day with forty percent of his battery still remaining. He had not touched the Low Power Mode button a single time. We have somehow accepted a strange reality where we think our expensive modern devices just naturally degrade in a few short months. But the truth is much simpler than that. Tech companies design these phones to constantly harvest data, build their corporate networks, and serve their massive ecosystems silently in the background. They are actively using your hardware and your battery life to do their heavy lifting. Stop letting your own phone work against you. Take fifteen minutes tonight, sit down on the couch, and go through this list. You bought the phone to serve you, so make absolutely sure it actually does.

  Did he said free money? Under fractional banking, $20 million means the bank can lending $2 billion to people previously had been redlining. I hope they hire good underwriters, to prevent unsound deals. I sure there are biz are sound and needs money but their biz is too small or according to data, they live in redlining areas. Hope these loans are going towards good biz and good people. I heard app developers said Apple Store pays them after 45 days, so despite they made a lot of money, but as fast they grow the bigger negative cash flow they had encountered. To small biz owners, negative cash flow due to growth happened to every one of us, so this should be a good problem to solve for them, as they should be able to collateralize their account receivables, if the payers are top rating biz like Apple or Amazon.

  A 31-YEAR-OLD IN BELGRADE IS PULLING $8,400 A MONTH OFF FIVE MAC MINIS RUNNING IN A TOWER ON HIS DESK. The whole stack costs $19 a month in electricity to operate. The hardware paid for itself in week one. The setup is so quiet his girlfriend didn't notice when he turned it on. His name is Stefan. This is the cleanest example of the new solo operator economy I've seen all year and the numbers deserve a full breakdown. The hardware is five M4 Mac Minis stacked in a tower on his desk. Each one has a number written on it in marker, 1 through 5, so he knows which node dropped when one goes silent. A pink dumbbell sits on the shelf above them. A can of compressed air on the windowsill. The whole thing hums quieter than the mini fridge in the corner. The five machines are clustered with EXO into one virtual machine. EXO is the open-source framework that lets you string together consumer hardware into a distributed inference rig without needing a degree in systems engineering. The setup runs Llama 70B locally on MLX, Apple's machine learning framework optimized for unified memory. Nothing he runs ever touches a cloud server. No API costs. No rate limits. No latency tax. The model runs on his desk and answers in milliseconds. Here's the workflow he built around it. A client uploads a raw manuscript. Anywhere from 60,000 to 120,000 words. Indie author novels, self-help books, faceless YouTube channel scripts, the kind of long-form content that needs narration but doesn't have a studio budget. The Llama 70B model does the reading work first. It ingests the raw text, cleans the formatting, splits the chapters automatically, and tags every line of dialogue with the emotional tone it should be read in. Excited. Whispered. Angry. Resigned. Then it writes the chapter descriptions that faceless YouTube channels paste directly under their uploads. All of it done locally. All of it done in one pass. Then an open voice model on the same stack takes over and narrates the entire book in a single locked voice. The voice never gets tired, never asks for a re-record, never raises its day rate, never catches a cold the day before a session. The same voice across every chapter, every book, every client. Consistency that human narrators physically cannot match. A local audio mastering model handles the final polish. Compression, leveling, breath cleanup, room tone matching. The output is studio-quality audio ready for upload. The stack renders 28 hours of clean narration per month while he sleeps. He wakes up, exports the files, sends them to clients, invoices them, and goes back to whatever he wants to do with his day. Now the part that breaks people. The power draw across all five machines running at full load is 180 watts. He has a KUMAN meter plugged into the wall to track it. A single gaming PC idles higher than that. The entire AI studio he built consumes less electricity than a hair dryer on low. At Serbian residential rates that works out to roughly $19 a month in operating cost. Eight thousand four hundred dollars in, nineteen dollars out. A 442x margin on power alone before you account for the fact that the hardware paid for itself the first week he turned it on. His girlfriend asked why the power bill didn't move after he built it. He told her it can't, the machines barely draw anything. She asked what the whole thing cost to set up. He told her. She asked why he didn't build ten. That's the right question. A traditional audiobook studio has a narrator on a day rate, a booth, an engineer, and a monthly power bill that buries solo operators. The cheapest professional narrator in the US charges around $200 per finished hour. The cheapest decent one runs closer to $400. A 10-hour audiobook costs an indie author at least $2,000 in narration alone, plus mastering, plus mixing, plus the three week turnaround time while the narrator fits the project into their schedule. Stefan delivers the same product for a fraction of the cost, in 48 hours, with consistent quality across every chapter, and his only constraint is how fast he can find clients. The economics are completely deranged compared to traditional service businesses. He doesn't pay rent on a studio. He doesn't pay a narrator. He doesn't pay for cloud compute. His marginal cost per audiobook is approximately the electricity it takes to run the cluster for the duration of the render, which is measured in pennies. A few realizations worth sitting with. The frontier of AI economics is no longer in San Francisco. It's in apartments in Belgrade, Lagos, Manila, and Tbilisi, where operators with low overhead and high technical curiosity are quietly running businesses that look impossible from the outside. The geographic distribution of who actually makes money from AI is going to look nothing like the geographic distribution of who funded the labs. Local inference is the quiet revolution nobody on this app is talking about loudly enough. Every workflow that currently runs on OpenAI or Anthropic APIs has a cousin that runs on a Mac cluster for the price of an electrical outlet. The companies paying $30k a month in cloud bills are going to wake up in 18 months and find their margins eaten by operators paying $19. The audiobook market is just the beginning. Every service business with high human labor costs and predictable output requirements is about to get the same treatment. Voiceover work, transcription, translation, copywriting, image editing, video editing, customer support, technical writing. Each one of these has a local-inference version waiting to be built by someone with a stack of Mac Minis and an EXO config file. Stefan didn't invent anything. He just connected the right pieces. The pieces have been sitting on GitHub for over a year. The Mac Minis have been on shelves at every Apple Store. EXO is free. The voice models are open. The orchestration is a weekend project. The only barrier was knowing it was possible. Now you know.

  @ATT Your tech support told me that I should go to the Apple Store because he could not fix my issue. Apple had full access to see my settings. It’s an @ATT problem. It’s not an Apple issue.

  After a 750 km road trip from home, our @cybertruck threw the PCS2_a094 error. Apparently it’s a well-known issue that disables all AC charging. The truck will only charge at a Supercharger. Tesla’s response? A repair appointment 3 weeks from now, and they actually tried to reassure me by saying Supercharging would be free. So I guess I’m supposed to waste an hour every few days driving 9 km to the nearest Supercharger, waiting for an 80% charge, then driving back home. That’s completely absurd. If this is a known failure, why isn’t there a recall? Why are owners expected to live with a vehicle that suddenly loses a core function? And the service experience keeps getting worse. Last time I drove to the Service Center, waited 3 hours, only to be told the tires they had ordered never arrived. I had to come back two weeks later. @Tesla seems to have very little respect for their customers’ time. The attitude is starting to remind me of those teenage Apple Store geniuses who ask whether you’ve installed the latest software update when your battery is physically dead. Love the truck. The service? It’s becoming harder and harder to defend.

  @that_john_doe @aaronp613 Firstly these device are obsolete now, second the firmware that was unsigned was the newest one for the model not some old firmware Also iPhone's slow down and overheat when the battery is bad, change that battery in an Authorized Service or Apple Store and see performance go up
