yes. a movie nothing to do with netflix. Not any english translation for the Three Body Day event
sorry i meant oct 24
Re:I Met Cixin Liu on Three Body day today. New movie is coming on Saturday October 24, 2026 @02:10PM (#50223683)
excited so I wrote an article staying up late! today Oct 10 2026 is the first time I met Big Liu in person. Also excited about the new movie Zhang Yimou is good. For more photos i took you can DM me
powerful enough models are becoming a reality on personal hardware. Olares is an open-source personal AI cloud OS, supporting local AI, Ollama, Open WebUI, Hermes etc

Here is a open source OS to allow you to self host immich with 1 click https://www.olares.com/docs/use-cases/immich
Not so sure about the shadowban policy so i won't paste the github link but you can search Olares. It is an AI OS for one click AI deployment and more.

try if out if you wanted AI woven into the OS itself: the model runs on your machine, your files and chats never leave your walls, and the agent layer talks to the system natively instead of through a browser tab.

isolated container per run, no mounted secrets, vault at runtime, egress off. Open Source Olares (biased) runs agents as isolated workloads on your own hardware.

a lighter-weight alternative of docker and python is the Rust+Wasm stack https://github.com/LlamaEdge/LlamaEdge
covers how to wire up the components to run a real-time voice agent that you can actually talk to via an ESP32 client, keeping the heavy lifting on your local machine.

This post summarizes WasmEdge's recent talks at OSSummit Korea and KubeCon NA 2025, focusing on its new role as a premier AI runtime. Key technical highlights include expanded multi-GPU support (NVIDIA, AMD, Apple), multi-backend inference (TensorRT, OpenVINO), and the use of Embedded Rust/Wasm for building real-time voice AI agents (EchoKit project).

customize both hardware and software. Their voice cloning lets you recreate your own voice for truly personal AI experiences.

Voice is the next frontier of conversational AI. It is the most natural modality for people to chat and interact with another intelligent being.

why they don't prompt ai to avoid using dashes. and bullet points etc

Show HN: EchoKit – An open-source, ESP32-based AI voice agent with a Rust server

https://www.instructables.com/Create-Your-Own-AI-Voice-Agent-Using-EchoKit-ESP32/

Have you wanted a voice AI agent that you could fully control, customize, and understand from the ground up—not just a black box.EchoKit is a DIY, open-source voice agent running on an ESP32-S3. The fun part is the server backend, which I wrote entirely in Rust to handle the AI pipeline (ASR, LLM, TTS).The stack is:Hardware: EchoKit board (ESP32-S3)Firmware: ESP-IDFServer: Rust (Actix...

The talk explores the idea that while human-centric languages like Python are popular for their ease of use, they are suboptimal for AI-driven development. Rust, with its strict compiler and strong type system, provides an excellent reward function and a tight feedback loop for LLMs, forcing them to generate correct, efficient code. This could make Rust the de facto language in a future where most code is written by AI. The video demonstrates this with a voice AI agent built with Echokit and Rust. the orignal tak is there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbq0b_FpYEY

Show HN: EchoKit –Fully Open Source AI Voice Agent Hardware and Server

https://echokit.dev/

It is powered by Rust most “open” AI devices are actually closed on the backend, limiting customization and privacy. EchoKit is fully open—from ESP32-S3 hardware to the Rust-based server. You can customize ASR, TTS (including voice cloning), LLM prompts, and even add your own MCP actions. We’d love your feedback, ideas, and contributions. Try it out, check the code, and let us know what you think!
