I found I need to upload text over multiple entries to get it all into ChatGPT. Guessing how many chunks to break it into based on the number of tokens is not an easy thing to do. I have created this to help simplify the process. Just drop in your text, select the chunk size …
I’ve had the chance to experiment with various AI models, and I’ve conducted some “testing”. I thought I would share my thoughts about the differences and different use cases for each of the listed AIs. These opinions are as of the end of March, 2023. Even a few weeks from now this will probably be …
So as I was working on the Subaru Sambar, I needed to check the fuses. The interior lights aren’t working, and I am thinking that may be the culprit. The only problem is all the listings I found were very tentative and not really good translations. I’m pretty good with Google Translate, so I used …
Well, on a bit of a lark I started looking into bidding on Mini Trucks in Japan. Little did I know I would end up actually winning one. After several months, I now have it here at my house, but not without a number of stories to go along with it. The big thing is, …
I have been using Yunohost as a manager for much of my personal web for several years now, and within that I have my Nextcloud instance. I have really liked it, but there are a few caveats that one needs to take into account when going this route. First, updates are at the pace determined …

The problem is, while there is a module, there is very little documentation, and it doesn’t even tell you how to format the information in the blocks. Right now I am focused on dealing with …
I was browsing the web today, and came across a photo of a cassette adapter. For some reason it just struck me. That little piece of technology was a bridge between two worlds, the analog of tape, and the digital of MP3 and CD players. My one son actually has one in his car. He …
The holidays are over, and I just got a box of goodies. A whole slew of new WiFi dongles featuring the MediaTek MT7612U. I spent the night with my sons shucking the boxes, and assembling them to end up with the box above. I am still waiting on a few critical parts, but I will …
The first issue that I needed to solve was having enough USB 3.0 ports. I looked at many options. I could run a number of Raspberry Pi computers, and link the databases, I could use some crazy expensive cards I found that have as many as 32 USB 3 ports on them, or I could …
As my post said earlier, I was seeing NO 5GHz signals on the RTL8812 dongles. None. Zip. Nada. I am messing with the MediaTek MT7612U dongles now, and I was having the same issue. Not a single AC or 5GHz signal. After messing with trying to get the drivers to work properly, I took a …
