Didn't Google and such have access to much more training data than open source solutions? I would think that would give them an advantage, unless it's the raw algorithms that are better.

 

I'm really looking forward to this. Love Racket: Nx and I play pickleball irl. Resolution Games has a great track record too.

Both, yealink for physical phones. Ground wire for mobile app. You could always sign up for a test number before you port yours over.

Voip.ms is great, been using them for businesses for years. It's dirt cheap - probably cost you like $3/month.

Carmack is the man, masters of doom is a great read.

Diva Swan speakers - they were one of the early internet speaker companies. They had a deal if you bought 2 floorstanding and 2 bookshelf speakers they threw in the $500 center channel for free. I've upgraded receivers with newer surround processing over the years, but the the core 5.1 holds up great for 20+ years now. https://hometheaterhifi.com/volume_8_2/diva-swans-41-speakers-5-2001.html

 

The best site to find new games. You can sort through all the app lab and other games by a variety of factors. I just wish they had a gorilla tag exclusion filter.

Sorry I don't.

 

This isn't my spreadsheet - but has incredibly detailed reviews of almost every add-on for Half Life. Great way to find the best maps to start out with.

Check this site for the most accurate weather provider in your area. Then choose an app that can use that as a source. https://www.forecastadvisor.com/
