I just bought 5 Mac Studios to replace my video editing PCs… but before I hand them over to my editors, I had to play with them first. So, I did something crazy– I clustered them together to build a super powerful AI cluster. My goal? Run Llama 3.1 405B, one of the biggest AI models out there. Normally, you’d need an AI server that costs more than my HOUSE to run something like this. In this video, I’ll show you exactly how I clustered my Mac Studios together using Exo Labs.

Your Remote Desktop SUCKS. Windows Remote Desktop? Locked behind Windows Pro. Windows to Mac? Nope. My editors just switched to Mac, and now they need to remote in from home—but there’s no way to do it. Linux? xRDP? VNC? Too clunky, too complicated.

I want one remote desktop to rule them all—free, open-source, and working seamlessly on Mac, Linux, AND Windows. And guess what? I found it. In this video, I’ll show you the BEST remote-desktop solution you’ve never heard of. Plus, I’ll walk you through setting it up step-by-step so you can finally have a remote desktop that just WORKS.

Is it actually safe to run DeepSeek R1—or any local AI model—on your computer? Everyone says local AI is better for privacy, but… is it really? How do we know it's not secretly sending data to the internet? And what about file access—can it peek into your personal stuff? In this video, I’ll show you how to run DeepSeek R1 LOCALLY. It’s time to ditch Cloud AI.
