Has anyone here checked the 3D live in the usopen.org page? https://www.usopen.org/en_US/scores/

I must say I was impressed. It is not perfect, but if what you to want to watch is just the sport being played, it might very well meet your needs. Add a little sound to it and I could watch a whole tennis match that way.

That made me think how one could convert any sports event to 3D and stream it. I don't know how many cameras IBM uses for that 3D stream, but a handful of volunteers recording the game with their phones and uploading it to a server that would process it could, in theory, generate a 3D version of the match. Maybe even the cameras of the official stream itself could be enough to create this.

The best part of this is that the 3D stream would be untraceable. It can't be watermarked, it's just the movement of the players and the ball, nothing else. And it also would have a ridiculously low bit rate. You could watch a match in 4K using a 100 kbps stream. You could even customize the assets to remove ads and make the players wear the uniform of your choice.

I'm probably dreaming too much, but a man can dream, right?

A few weeks ago I reached out to Lbrpdx, who is the developer of Batocera, asking him if he's okay with the idea of an interview.

Batocera itself is a free, plug-and-play operating system that turns a PC, handheld, or single-board computer into a retro gaming console with built-in emulators. I've used it on my PC's, and I've used it on my Steam Deck - everything from the ROMs to bios, emulators and files all stored on a SD card without any performance issues. It's pure magic to me.

Anyway, Lbrpdx said he's very much okay with chatting to me, so I got the chance to ask him a bunch of questions!

If you're interested in reading what he and I talked about (how Batocera began, how it is developing, the community and the future of things!), then you can follow this link to read all about it

Pretty much the title. Is my account treated like a bot account? My ISP gives me new IP addresses often, there is no way to get a fixed address.

I've been self-hosting Home Assistant for over a year, and I want to take the dive into more self-hosting. I want to start by converting an old laptop into a home server. Assuming that goes well, I'll probably want to upgrade to a more modern, purpose built server and NAS fairly soon. How can I make sure that what I set up on the laptop can be easily moved to my upgraded hardware later?

Additional notes:

  • I'm already using Tailscale (it's what prompted me to want to do more self-hosting)
  • I want to be able to access my server via Tailscale, but I want everything mapped to my own custom domain via a reverse proxy
  • I'm planning on using Proxmox

Thanks in advance for the advice! :)

Original Title: Overweight people had a 14% lower risk of developing dementia compared to those with normal weight, while obese participants had a 19% lower risk. However, those who lost weight from midlife to late life had an increased risk of dementia. This is the so-called obesity paradox.
