Now if the market was reasonable...

lol. I am the market, and I am reasonable.

I've got actual use cases for AI, and I've got a local model running on my own hardware.

In short - I'm the long term buyer after the hype wave ends, and I ain't buying shit from these assholes.

That said, if a nice fully open source home appliance gets announced, by a company that hasn't burned all available goodwill and trust with random acts of assholery, I'll probably join a wait list for it.

In other words, I'm saying there's a chance.
