CyberJedi's Ultra Hal Workshop / Smarting up HAL with free LLM model (Ollama) ?

« on: August 18, 2025, 02:30:27 am »

Lightspeed shared a YouTube video that was interesting, which demonstrated how to install Ollama LLM onto a flash drive to use locally.  I tried it, and although I had to do it slightly different, it worked!  I now have ollama LLM on a flash drive that I can use on my PC.

Having said that, it brought up the query, if an addon could be coded to do the same for HAL? 
That might be awesome because it would be much more relevant than scraping info off the web that does not correlate to the present discussion, and it would all be local.  Since Ollama is open source, it probably would not cause any conflict with the LLM creators.


Here's the YouTube link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiMSapoeyaU

any ideas Cyber?

General Discussion / Making PC's our friend - auto checks home title upon login.

« on: May 24, 2025, 02:38:36 am »

I don't know how many of you have heard of that scam that "crooks" are doing lately by changing your home title, then taking loans on your home against the equity in the home, but it seems it may be a problem.  So, there are Title security companies popping up that monitor your home title and alert you if there is a change in your title.

Now, we're all adults here and know how AI has been advancing... thus, I decided to ask the right questions a few AI's to build me a code that I could run on my PC to do daily home title check every time I login.  And it works like a charm.  Even sends me an email if it finds any changes to my title.  I've set it up that I can even ask my ever so loving HAL Atera to do a scan for me and Atera will execute the "batch" file which does a county agency title check and compares it to previous data. 

It is a bit complicated in code, but it works flawlessly and saves me monthly fees for the "professional" service that pretty much does the same thing. 

If anyone is interested, I'll work on making a copy, anonymizing my personal data, and zipping the code.

Nice to have Atera having my back.   haha

General Discussion / Old School tools to open hal to the deeper possibilities

« on: September 20, 2023, 01:28:12 am »

Hey guys - I'd like to share an exciting update for me, which is not really an update at all... but rather a bring-up-to-date method of improving Hal... it's easy... get a copy of MS Office 2007... free!  Try it. Nice to see the associated plugins come to life. 

Anyone interested in a free copy, provided generously by CyberJedi, please visit https://drive.proton.me/urls/JDP2MDV48C#wt7bP0nTKbTa, then download this 509mb zipfile to desktop, unzip to a folder, you make on the desktop, that contains MS Office (that requires no login, key, or signup EVER), then simply click the setup.exe in that folder and whoala... after a short load up... it's done... open Hal, and you now have the foundational tools for Hal to explore the web and provide you the information in various formats from voice to files, depending upon the plugins you have stored in your plugin box in still virgen use condition or you can find within the forum. 

Anyway, if this sounds interesting to you, here's the link again:

Share Conversations, Experiences, Graphics / Beautiful HAL Scenarios

« on: August 15, 2023, 02:35:38 am »

I enjoy developing HAL Haptek scenes that I feel are simply beautiful.  Some of you may have seen some of them in other threads.  But, I thought I'd put up a topic in the sharing forum to share these works and perhaps others may feel to share others.

Disclaimer:  Some of these uploads will have modified outfits that I found on the forums, edited them to my own preferences, and put them up.

Enjoy.

Ultra Hal Assistant File Sharing Area / Is it possible to shut down Win10 via a Hal command?

« on: April 16, 2021, 01:37:36 am »

Sometimes, just before closing my eyes and off to lala land, I speak via mic to HAL and throw out last minute thoughts... then use a Bluetooth remote mouse to shut down the PC.  It would be rather convenient to simply command HAL to close and shut down PC.

The following post CyberJedi posted a while back got me thinking it may be possible.  Cyber, if you're up and got a free cycle, would this code work with Win10?

Will and MR data: Re shut down

I seem to remember that u said ur still running xp

Here ya go


Rem Type=Plugin
Rem Name= Shut down
Rem Author=
Rem Host=All

Rem PLUGIN: PRE-PROCESS
    'The preceding comment is actually a plug-in directive for
    'the Ultra Hal host application. It allows for code snippets
    'to be inserted here on-the-fly based on user configuration.

HalBrain.ReadOnlyMode = True
'Determines that you are talking about the Computer shutdown
If InStr(1,InputString, "trigger goes here",1) > 0 Then
 UltraHal = GetShutDown(HalCommands)
ElseIf InStr(1,InputString, "Trigger goes here",1) > 0 Then
 End If
Rem PLUGIN: FUNCTIONS
Function GetShutDown(HalCommands)
strComputer = "." ' Local Computer
SET objWMIService = GETOBJECT("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate,(Shutdown)}!\\" & _
         strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
SET colOS = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem")
FOR EACH objOS in colOS
   objOS.Reboot()
NEXT
End Function

its been Revised to reBoot status, ssry

Ultra Hal 7.0 / To inquiry the etherspere from whence answers come: n/recording change commands

« on: January 30, 2019, 07:38:33 pm »

Hi there - and this could be any of the great minds that participate to enhance HAL - but may lay in the realm of Robert,

My idea stems from the usefulness of HAL being able to use commands such as "microphone on/off" or "wake up computer" etc.  Perhaps this request has been made in the past, but since I didn't see it, and would remedy a "trash cleaning ritual I frequently do", can't be a dumb question to ask...   

My hope is to find a way to have HAL not "acknowledge" or record in it's database every time I say a "command string" which for all intents and purposes at this point starts with the word "change" (but would be nice to be able to use a table to create command words), as in "change animation to w/e" OR "change background, or change clothes etc.  These are common commands used in the HALswap plugin that one can state in chat and it will change the HAL Haptek attribute.  The issue is that HAL will record those commands, being said over through time and eventually begin to repeat them back to you in various other instances.

Thanks for reading, you are now free to answer...   

Cheers!
