phil42··on Show HN: JBR-001 – An open-source 3D printable desktop robot
This reminds me of the Otto DIY (https://www.ottodiy.com/), which also used to be a free Arduino (nano) based, 3D-printable robot until it was bought by HP. Just like with the JBR-001 it seems that the main goal has shifted towards making it a commercial product, which is a shame. Especially the low price point made it so attractive for beginners and students alike.

Does anyone know of similar, really open source and free projects like this?

That's what I started with originally, but it's not offline and stores all data on their servers. Something like Workflowy but offline or self-hosted would be brilliant.

Any good outliner alternatives out there?

I originally came from Roam and was really happy to find an offline alternative in Logseq. I've since moved to Obsidian, though. Obsidian works well, but I still feel like my brain works best with the outliner-style workflow that Roam and Logseq offer.

I have heard of https://outl.app/ but when I tried it out, it still seemed in a very early stage (and heavily vibe-coded, which I also don't enjoy).

What's the name of that registrar?

How did you connect the individual smaller LED panels together? I guess the cool color patterns and the individual addressing comes from WLED then?

It’s intriguing to observe how this model is hallucinating. I presented it with Albert Bierstadt’s painting “In the Mountains” (https://www.wikiart.org/en/albert-bierstadt/in-the-mountains...). To my surprise, it maintains that cows are scattered throughout the scene, despite being told otherwise.

User:

Llama: The image features a serene landscape with mountains in the background and a river flowing through it. A picturesque scene unfolds as two trees are visible near the water, adding to the natural beauty of the environment. In addition to these elements, there is an interesting detail: several cows can be seen standing on or around the grassy area next to the body of water. The presence of these animals creates a sense of tranquility and harmony with nature in this idyllic setting.

User: There are no cows. Could it be that you've mistaken rocks for cows?

Llama: No, the rocks in this image are not mistaken for cows. They can be seen near a lake with mountains in the background and trees surrounding it. The painting captures a serene landscape where nature is beautifully displayed. This picturesque scene showcases both the majestic mountain range and the tranquil body of water, creating an idyllic atmosphere that evokes feelings of peacefulness and relaxation.

User: There are no cows!

Llama: The image depicts a serene scene of mountains and water. A beautiful lake is surrounded by majestic snow-capped mountains, creating an idyllic landscape. In the foreground, there are trees adding to the natural beauty of the environment.

A few birds can be seen flying in the sky above the lake, further enhancing the peaceful atmosphere. The presence of a boat on the water adds another element of leisure and enjoyment to this picturesque scene. Overall, it is an inviting image that showcases nature's wonders with its combination of mountains, lake, trees, birds, and boats.

But I need an GPT-4 api key for that, right? The normal API keys don't work?

How can this be a privacy-respecting search engine if it requires me to provide payment details for the ad-free version? On top of that, the ad-free version requires a login and enables them to tie my search queries to my account.
phil42··on Hetzner Cloud
I can‘t seem to find any FreeBSD but just Linux images when trying to create a CloudServer. Is it correct that right now they just have different Linux distros available?
