Yeah there is something in his writing that often overwhelms me. I found his books by accident, and now I'm thinking I should change my reading habits towards his kind of books (I'm usually a Stephen King kind of person)

Nice, I'll add these to the list, thank you!

Thank you. I've heard good things about wonder in the past. I'll try that next. I usually read action and horror, but the few times I read books like these, I feel like may be I should read more of these and less of those.

 

Just finished reading this book, and it was very moving. I've read one other book by Frederick Backman (And every day the way home gets longer), and loved it as well. Please suggest some books in the same style of these books (a bit more feel good like Ove would be great, but fine either way)

That "This farmer is evel" by the pig and the "sic" by the hen gives me a sensible chuckle

Yeah I used deepstack before, and it had a lot better detection times, but recently BI switched to using CodeProjectAI as the supported ai, so I moved over to that. It's not as performant as Deepstack. Maybe I should try going back to deepstack even if it's not officially supported.

I bought that desktop exactly for that reason. The video recording itself seems to work fine, but the ai model seems to be struggling sometimes, and even when it works, it takes about half a second or more to make a classification. That's what I want to improve with the gpu. I'm reading up on openvio, and it seems impressive, but only on frigate. Do you have any experience with Frigate vs Blue iris? What are your thoughts?

[–] nieceandtows 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's running windows 10. The software code project ai supports gpus with cuda support, which I assume are Nvidia cards. I'm using it currently only for blue iris to monitor my security cameras. Blue iris uses code project ai for object detections like human, animals, etc. It has been running okay for a couple of years without GPU, but I think adding a GPU would definitely improve performance and speed.

I'm currently getting a lot of timeout errors and delays processing the analysis. What GPU can I add to this? Please advise.

And enough cooling to drain a lake

 

Apparently my factory alignment was shit, and the tires are already up for replacement. The workshop I went to gives me three options. Please let me know if the prices look good, and which among the three would be the best choice.

  1. KENDA - 235/60R18 XL VEZDA TOURING 4S (KR211)

    • Good (according to the workshop)
    • $148 each, $724.67 total, $100 extra for alignment
    • 60,000 mile limited treadwear warranty
  2. BRIDGESTONE - 235/60R18 XL ALENZA AS ULTRA

    • Better
    • $259 each, $1256.14 total, $100 extra for alignment
    • 80,000 mile limited treadwear warranty
  3. YOKOHAMA - 235/60R18 AVID ASCEND LX

    • Best
    • $224 each, $1088.56 total, $100 extra for alignment
    • 85,000 mile limited treadwear warranty

Please recommend which one of these is a better set of tires, or if you have a better recommendation elsewhere.

Thanks!

 

Coming from Pebble, I had no idea this watch has an appstore with so many apps. Anything worthwhile? Please recommend.

 
 

I have been putting part of my paycheck into a high yield savings account, but haven't bothered with investing it in a responsible manner partially due a fear of losing the money due to bad investments. I'm finally realizing how much potential money I've lost by letting my money stagnate. Please advise me on how to responsibly invest my money, thanks!

 

I recently bought a refurbished Mobiscribe Wave for $99 on Amazon, and I'm really liking it so far. What's your favorite cheap note taking device?
