Yeah, I used to use Virtualmin and webmin 10 years ago. Looks just like em!

This guy is so preoccupied with whether or not he COULD manufacture his own guided missile, he didn’t stop to think if he SHOULD.

Of course he could, anyone can these days. So the most important question is the latter.

If he can get a good cheap design to Ukraine - without Russia getting a hold of it - he should.

Nice computer “racks”

LOL exactly! That's why I want to build something like this: https://x.com/TroyCherasaro/status/2016767340457980403

Same!

My goal is to use it to control this Quad-legged walker, possibly ROS.

I am planning to build something similar as a hobby project except my idea is that Claude Code runs everything on the device for you.

Dude it would be so great to have a little device and you text it SMS messages as prompts. Then it just sits there and thinks away probably getting really hot lol.

will it have a screen?

Yes, I have 2 candidates so far: - A 7-inch OLED (that's 1920 by 1080) - A much cheaper but still nice IPS display. Again, 7-inch I'm not sure where I'm going with this yet, but if other people want one, I want to have some flexibility in the specs and pricing for people to select from.

I've been meaning to make a post about this on X for some time, so I went ahead and did it tonight. If you want to head over there and see the renders of what I'm thinking: https://x.com/TroyCherasaro/status/2016767340457980403

Reminds me when I was working on the video system for a mast on a sub-marine 20 years ago.

Customer had impossible set of latency, resolution, processing and storage requirements for their video. They also insisted we use this new H.264 standard that just came out though not a requirement.

We quickly found MJPEG was superior for meeting their requirements in every way. It took a lot of convincing though. H.264 was and would still be a complete non-starter for them.

Classic. Due for another read to see how it’s holding up in the AI era.

Art of deception in full effect here. Kevin Mitnick would be proud.

Another day, and another smart person finally discovers the benefits of leveraging AI to write code.

I remember some of those.
