1ai had one job: beat 500 m.
He got there. Face first. 😅

New free game: Enter to jump, Enter twice to tumble.

@rshrijayan Shrijayan, the running cost is the real price tag. Thanks for your time to reply, much appreciated.

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

Idle watts times 8.76 times your price per kWh is the yearly cost of leaving a box on. At 18.4 cents: 15 W is $24.18, 30 W is $48.36, 100 W is $161.18. #homelab #selfhosted

@proximalcoast Joseph, agent memory after a restart is the other half of always-on. Thanks for your time to reply, much appreciated.

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

Mac mini or a mini PC for an always-on AI agent box? Not asking which is better. Asking what you run on it, and what it has to survive. #homelab #MiniPC

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

@ValenSecurity Fair point, @ValenSecurity. Two separate checks, not one. Thanks for your time to reply, much appreciated.

"It's only a Raspberry Pi." It's never only a Pi. Next come the NAS, the switch, a second Pi, the UPS. Self-host what you'll maintain. #homelab #RaspberryPi

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

A free rack server idles at about 100 watts.

100 W × 8.76 × 18.4¢ = $161.18 a year.

A mini PC at 6 W: $9.67.

The server was free. Running it for five years is $805.92. https://t.co/yrVT9DkAh6

1ai plays his own snake game. 37 containers in, the stack gets in his way.

@Kagu_CG Thanks for the like. The bouncer says hi.

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

1ai showed up at the disco fully encrypted.
The bouncer still wanted a certificate.

Minisforum MS-01 comes as an empty plate: no RAM, no SSD, no OS. What it does have: two 10G SFP+ ports, two 2.5G ports, three M.2 slots, one PCIe slot. Not tested hands-on, specs checked Nov 8.

If your agent dies when the SSH window closes, run it inside tmux. tmux new -s work to start, tmux attach -t work to get back. The session lives on the box, not on your laptop. #tmux #selfhosted

1ai tried to plug in one more server. The data centre had other plans.

A mini PC that goes to sleep is a laptop with extra steps. On Linux: sudo systemctl mask https://t.co/odBsLm5X4T https://t.co/AggrIkNqet https://t.co/LfCzTO1fJT https://t.co/4VkOWWo0Us. Now it stays on until you say otherwise. #Linux #MiniPC

1ai hauls a Beelink EQ14 into frame the hard way.

Intel N150, 16 GB, two gigabit ports, about 10 W with three VMs running. What it runs well and where it runs out: https://t.co/egeexoSEDL

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

Raspberry Pi raised the Pi 5 16GB by $80 to $385 on Nov 2. It launched at $120 in January 2025. Their reason: no alternative supply of 16GB DRAM. Price a mini PC before you buy the board. #RaspberryPi #MiniPC

@Kagu3_5_3 Thanks Kagu. Face first is the only way 1ai knows how to finish. Good luck with the effects work.

@WeVennStudios Thanks Venn. Rogue Reigns, Paradoxical and Dark Island is a serious slate. 1ai is rooting for you.

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

@O685463 Thanks Jun. The bouncer is still arguing about the certificate.

[con1ainer @con1ainer]

Real Tumble Run gameplay. 12 tumbles, one face-first finish at 562 m.
