@PawelK Gboard should be open source as part of AOSP. I could be wrong though.

@PawelK Those paw type latches are really easy to get out of alignment or something bends. A half circle pick works wonders on the wafers but a good hook will work well too.

I want to say it's 4 or 5 wafers by the key hole shape. I usually just use graphite powder on stubborn locks. The rotating paw mechanism is more robust and can handle more damage than the other designs. I've seen where people tried to force them open and the paw had partially ripped through the sheet metal.

Locks are lovely.

@PawelK A wafer tumbler cam style lock. Bypass or picked?

@thor I felt the same when I was homeless, I had back up plans but they fell through. I ended up homeless on my birthday and I remember hot tears going down my face as I tried to get some sleep. I've been homeless a few more times since then.

Making the right choices, doing what I was advised to do and doing what I was told led me there. This is why I am so insistent on not ending up on the street. Something inside me snapped and I got to see a lot of the bad side of humanity. There's no scrubbing it from my mind. I still struggle with that experience and what I had to do to survive.

@thor I have PTSD from a long time ago and it seems that people know how to set me off. I need to be around people so I don't forget how to live in a society. Part of me just wants to get away and work on heavy equipment or operate it. To be around people who respect the talk shit and get hit ideology.

@thor I had some shit happen around 2015 and it's been a lot of hardship and trauma since then. Employment is difficult for me too. I'm a good employee but getting in a position is the difficult part.

@thor I don't have an official diagnosis as that is a painful process to go through here. I've been through the gruelling 8-10h interrogation sessions before for other things.

One doctor implied that I had an anti-social disorder and something else.

@thor Hahaha same here. My HFA wasn't diagnosed until a doctor got something wrong about medicine and I lost my mind. No one suspected it or believed it.

@thor I've only heard of it in reference to Autism and later ADHD.

@thor Is this a reference to Autism?

@Amikke My bad, I accidentally confused Manjaro with the god like Gentoo. Ubuntu is sketchy, Mint is bloated Ubuntu and Manjaro is just not good. Manjaro has only impressed me on two very specific devices and that's because it was custom made for them.

Debian used to be my recommendation but I hate flatpacks and a lot of garbage that has been tossed into distros.

Gentoo is actually worth the effort. I run Guix because it's FSF Approved and it really has a lot of new and interesting features.

Yeah so this is definitely going to require custom ML algorithms. I believe I found a way to further optimize these algorithms and perhaps get better results.

The training sets are likely going to be even more efficient now thanks to this development.

I had a thought and recalled how the original project was supposed to be released a year or two ago. It didn't feel good to remember that but I'm glad it didn't work out. The current project is something that I can be proud of.

The former project was a quagmire. The current project is almost entirely focused on designing new ML algorithms and Training Sets that are starting to look much different than what I've seen before.

It's not close to being ready yet. I'll likely be refining the ML portions until I see it fit for release. The multiple ML algorithm approach is rather bold but there's a good reason why. It is made to work as is or integrated with other solutions.

I'll reveal more when the time comes. I've said it before and I'll say it more clearly this time, this project would destroy the older version. The one thing I am concerned about is the rather demanding load on a system during the operation of this.

As always, feel free to ask questions. I'll answer them if I can.

@igelsQTs Not on public roads not legally.

@info_activism Submachine gun? That's a Kalashnikov design with a suppressor.

@thor Finding out if the delay is a constant or variable is going to be important.

Designing this ML algorithm is fun. To be a Mathematician is beneficial at times when dealing with Computer Science. I have done far more complex modeling in my coursework and even more complex modeling in my free time.

Making the custom ML algorithms for this project and getting them to work well is definitely going to be an experience. If it works how I hope, the training sets should be a breeze.

So why two months until the release of the early version? The ML portion is going to take around that much time to get working well enough.

Oh I said that it was simplified and it is. The ML portion is more complex than it was originally. It's far more advanced and a mix of different areas of ML. The initial release isn't going to include the full ML portion as I need to have something that functions. Releases after the initial release will likely be to address problems but mainly expansions and optimizations.

It's modeled to more than live up to the name. So approximately 2 months to the initial release.

@thor Can you call libstagefright from the webapp?

@thor The sound of a floppy drive.

@thor Glad to hear that it's working well even if it's the path you didn't want to go.
