No, there's just a very serious reason to push AI - to help out their rich buddies by discrediting any possible Epstein connections (and also any other evidence down the line)

Having someone to carry like that is also peak :3

tbf there was a fair amount of bush visible too.

It's the old gang coming together, highly unlikely they'll mess it up.

Joe alone is the heart and soul of the top episodes in all three series. Top ten episodes, he's a writer for most, and heavily consulted on the rest. And creative producers... they do exactly that, keep the show on track. I don't see THE Mallozzi giving his name to a show if it's not up to par with what he'd write and produce.

Oh, it is causation though. You're just forgetting an important element - namely that Dear Leader can do no wrong. If he's making fun of a seemingly person person, then Dear Leader must know something that brings this somebody below personhood, therefore is right to make fun of them.

It's apparently a brand new pilot written by Gero, with Wright and Mallozzi onboard as creative producers.

To me this means they'll hire some new talent (giving new writers the same chance they got with SG1 and Atlantis back in the day), but the creative process will be bound to the oldschool masters who know what makes Stargate tick as a franchise.

I've actually been eyeing lemonade, but the lack of Dockerisation is still an issue... guess I'll just DIY it at one point.

Luckily that's the only frontal nudity bit

Laptop speakers work with being small by adding a large sound cavity around it, which allows for the sound to be amplified.

You can't jam that into a combadge size while also keeping space for battery and electronics.

Our tech is simply not there to put proper speakers and microphones AND a well sized battery in something so small.

Especially speakers. Volume is determined by the amount of air the diaphragm can move - and there's an exponential relationship between the size of the diaphragm and the volume of air it moves. Large diaphragm: even small movements (low amplification) can be loud because of how much air you move. Small diaphragm: even at high amplification, the volume will be low.

Smartphone speakers work this around by having an actually large speaker with appropriate sized cavity tucked away. Like, look at an iPhone teardown and see just how big the speakers are for the mediocre volume they can output. A combadge is what, 1/5 the size of the largest iPhone, in volume? And you still need to put electronics AND a battery in there.

It could work as a microphone, but not as a speaker.

Why, the pretense of hope of course!

Then livestream their evil little faces as they realise they're about to run out of oxygen and there's nothing they can do about it 😈

Piper does chunking for TTS, and could utilise the NPU with the right drivers.

And the idea of running them on the NPU is not about memory usage but hardware capacity/parallelism. Although I guess it would have some benefits when I don't have to constantly load/unload GPU models.
