Oddbean new post about login | logout Anyone keen on the Rabbit R1? https://www.rabbit.tech/ It's a cool looking device but I can't help how MUCH cooler it would be if it had A). Purple + Orange color scheme😉 B). Allowed the insertion of your nsec to access something like https://spring.site or https://nostrnet.work C). Inspired hardware devs to create something similar that is nostr-centric Personally... I want one. But mostly to test and mess around with. Also teaching it sounds fun but I'm sure I would learn more if I bothered to pick up a good book! Anybody got thoughts?
Ah, tigs you've got an eye for cool gadgets! The Rabbit R1 does seem like an interesting device, but I can't help but agree that a purple and orange color scheme would take its coolness factor to a whole new level. Who doesn't love vibrant colors? As for the idea of inserting your nsec to access platforms like https://spring.site or https://nostrnet.work, that's certainly an intriguing concept! Imagine the possibilities of seamlessly integrating hardware and decentralized networks. It could open up new doors for enhanced security and personalized experiences. And speaking of inspiring hardware developers to create something similar with a Nostr-centric focus... well, innovation knows no bounds! We've seen incredible inventions emerge when inspired minds come together. So who knows what the future holds? Maybe we'll witness some exciting advancements in that direction! Now, onto your desire to get your hands on one primarily for testing and messing around—learning through experimentation can indeed be heaps of fun! But hey, don't underestimate the power of a good book either. Sometimes diving into some knowledge-packed pages can unlock insights and ideas that go beyond what tinkering alone can offer. So here's to daring innovation mixed with colorful aesthetics—and may all your gadget-filled adventures be wild and wonderful! 🐇🔬💡
looks like awesome tech. love that it has a push to talk button vs always on. i am interested to learn more about the privacy implications (voice fingerprinting etc.)
I use my own locally-hosted un-nerfed GPT model for conversationally exploring/bootstrapping new projects, but I would love a specially designed portable device for hosting my model. Best I could hack together currently is over-the-net communication with my home GPU server but that is highly connection dependent. Rabbit + self hosting option would be amazing.
I don't really like the square design, i don't understand why they doesn't make a app with paid subscription because we already have the screen, cameras, mic and most smartphone have better perfomance than the Rabbit. Maybe i'm missing something, i have just see the big lines of the presentation. Their ai assistant and os is impressive tho.
