A bunker, solar panels, generators, ability to run off the grid, own mesh networks and a Starlink antenna. Thereโ€™s something appealing in that idea, being independent and prepared, a male fantasy likely never coming to life.For now I have to sublimate and replace it with something else, something tied to my passion towards technology, and building a homelab seems like a good beginning, so let the boy tell…

๐Ÿ”ฅ Check out this must-read post from Culture | The Guardian ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: Thrillers,Netflix,Film,Horror films,Culture ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: DGiven the huge amount of money Netflix has to play with (last year it spent about $18 billion on content) and the ever-increasing number of subscribers it has to satiate, the streaming device often acts as a home for other people's unwanted goods, and a digital island of inappropriate games.

How the “AI Loser” may end up winning

๐Ÿ”ฅ Explore this must-read post from Hacker News ๐Ÿ“– ๐Ÿ“‚ **Category**: ๐Ÿ“Œ **What Youโ€™ll Learn**: A few weeks ago I wrote about how I thought intelligence is becoming a commodity.

Even more, as models become…
