I have a good experience with Aoostar mini PCs, you can get them barebone by $300 with pretty powerfull CPU and GPU for the price.

I installed it but I don’t see how you start the download of a video

Awesome thanks! Please consider a step by step self-host installation guide for non-technical people. I’m confortable with the command line but know nothing about docker.

Do you need a YT account or it’s like Freetube?

Las Lenovo Thinkpad son lo mas recomendado con razón, pero suelen ser bastantes caras aquí en Latinoamerica. Una buena opción más económica son las Lenovo Thinkbook, tengo una con Debían instalado y funciona todo.

LineageOS, good enough to degoogle and if it’s possible for you to use F-Droid-only apps you are out of the surveillance machinery (with the exception of the TSP if you use a SIM card) and it’s a huge step from stock Android in terms of privacy.

Check Posteo. Working great for me since I left gmail.

You shouldn’t use an LLM to do your homework but you can certainly use it to learn and clarify things you don’t understand. I teach math and physics and tested local LLMs for learning and I can say they really help, at least in these subjects. The best option is to learn from books and making your homework, but when you’re stuck with something that you don’t understand, ask a good LLM to clarify things, give examples and context. I tested myself while learning about differential geometry and relativity, it really speeds up the learning process and understanding. But don’t use them as a primary source, nothing beats a good book and practice on that. I wish there was something like that when I was in college, I wouldn’t have carried some misunderstandings so many years. Being just a tool it’s up to you if you use it responsibly or not, as any other tool.

Awesome. Any known public instance working?
