You know that if you are just using a cloud service and not running local models, you could have just bought a raspberry pi.

Yeah. I know it’s dumb but it’s also a very expensive machine to run BlueBubbles, because iMessage requires a real Mac signed into an Apple ID, and I want a persistent macOS automation host with native Messages, AppleScript, and direct access to my local dev environment, not just a headless Linux box calling APIs.

My M2 macbook pro runs qwen fine, and so will any mac mini with maxed out ram.

Harder to get at the Apple ecosystem. I have an old Macbook that just serves my reminders over the internet.

who knows when Apple decides to enter the game, but they will absolutely crush the personal agent market when they do.

Apple has been doing personal agents for a while. They're crushing it so hard they must be tired of winning at this point.

For instance, the other day, the Siri button in maps told me it couldn't start navigation because it didn't know where it was. It was animating a blue dot with my real time position at the same time.

Don't get me started about the new iOS 26 notification and messaging filters. Those are causing real harm multiple times a day.
