Coral and others had this figured out before Apple. Not to downplay the significant effect they will have, but it was clear from the first little text and image classification pop after deep dream that the technology would bifurcate into little ml that runs on phones and computers and big ml that they use to trade watt hours in rural areas.

If you could read youd be very upset by my reply.

E: it’s really cruel to just make a funny one liner response to you. Reading and listening are two wildly different types of cognition. There is no argument against that and I don’t intend to engage with anything you present claiming otherwise. If you want to win an internet argument by having the last word about it, here’s your chance.

For your own sake please incorporate reading, actual looking at the written word and translating it into ideas, into your life especially if you’ve moved away from doing so. The process of reading has been linked in many studies with improved cognition as you age. For your own sake and the sake of the people around you, read. Do not fool yourself into believing that listening or watching is the same as reading. It will only hurt you and people who go by your example.

If you’re just worried about your computer or whatever getting stolen, whole partition encryption at rest is the way to go.

That process also requires that you log out of or turn off your computer when not using it. Not everyone understands that part. If your computer is on and logged in when it gets stolen then someone could just not turn it off or log out and read all the data.

Of course that’s assuming you mean stolen by a criminal as opposed to confiscated. That’s a different thing altogether.

From Portuguese to English.

You could look at the screen, but there’s also braille terminal support.

Some people do tts but that’s questionable, even if you don’t recognize that audiobooks aren’t reading, why burn power doing tts when you could just dl the mp3s instead and make it easier on yourself.

People will get all 3-2-1 about backups tbh you can just have a backup you know works and an older backup you know works stored somewhere else.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Don’t use a system you don’t understand.

There is no difference between deleting a file and encrypting it and losing the key.

Don’t start encrypting your shit if you don’t have a functional, operational, tested backup system in place.

Read the three sentences above again and make sure you understand them. Ask questions if you do not. It’s okay if you do not understand.

Looks like a 24 pin to me, but it’s blurry and who can say.

Either way an old oem psu isn’t the way to go.

It really seems like replacing that with a higher rated name brand psu will resolve your problem. You’re running up against the maximum power the pcie slot is rated to deliver. Claimed wattage only tells part of the story. All that power for the card has to come through the 24 pin connector along with everything else.

If you wanna prove me wrong plug the motherboard/cpu/gpu into someone else’s higher rated power supply and show that it has the same behavior.

If there’s a computer shop near you they’ll probably do this test in front of you with one of their power supplies for a couple of bucks. If there’s a gamer friend they’ll do it for free to help you figure out the problem.

You don’t have enough power supply.

Here’s how to do what you’re trying to do:

Get a pen and pad of paper. Transcribe all your expenses last month from bank records, cc statements, cash receipts etc. write it like 7/23/26 citgo $17.45. Now total it up at the bottom. that total is the money you spent.

Flip over to the next page, transcribe all your income last month from payroll checks, pensions, investments, yard sales etc. write it the same way. When you total that up at the bottom you know your income.

When you compare those two, you will find out if you’re spending more than you make.

Now flip to the next page. Take all your expenses and transcribe them by category, like “food”, “gas” etc. now you know how much you’re spending on different things and can (if you have a shortfall, a situation where you’re spending more than you make) figure out where to find savings. Perhaps you spend time preparing take and go meals at home instead of eating fast food, or cancel some streaming subscriptions.

If you just did all that, and I did not intend this as a rhetorical device: stop and actually do what I just outlined, you will have a budget.

The point of doing this process isn’t to shake the austerity dead chicken at you, but to help you figure out what your version of the budget process outlined above looks like.

Did you find it time consuming to manually transcribe transactions from ledger to ledger? Perhaps your “budget software” is a spreadsheet package with csv formatted imports from your bank and credit card comapnies.

Did you have a hard time handling lots of cash receipts? Perhaps you need to switch to a debit card or use a receipt scanner or ocr software at the point of purchase.

Is it not clear what category something fits into? A software package that automatically sorts things into categories or a name lookup table in your spreadsheet will make that faster and easier.

Maybe the pen and paper method worked out just fine for you but you could benefit from an accounting ruled pad and a more comfortable pen.

You should be choosing software to solve a problem, but you don’t know what the problem is. The problem isnt that you don’t have a budget. Getting a budget is the goal. Working it out on paper will help you understand what is standing between you and that goal. That thing is the problem your software needs to solve.

There’s no point in auditioning software or taking software suggestions if you don’t know what the problem is. It’s like asking how best to move your dirt pile. Komatsu makes a phenomenal solution to this, but it’s 300k to buy and 2k to rent for a day. A shovel and wheelbarrow might be a better approach but if you just ask for the best software you’re gonna get people pointing you at very complex bulldozer packages like actual or intuit in the commercial accounting software world.
