jupyter notebook Xbox used as Jupyter Notebook Server?

[CyanideDaydreams]

Should I use my xbox 1 as  a jupyter notebook server for google colab?

Is that even possible? Consoles are pretty useless pieces of tech (outside of gaming of course).

technically it is since cmd is a uwp app but i dont know whether its worth it or not

 

edit when in Dev mode it is possible since it is a UWP app

Idk, should you? The server colab offers has a better config that an xbox one, with an useable GPU if you're dealing with ML.

 

Otherwise, why not use your regular pc/laptop as the server itself with regular jupyter notebook?

My laptop isn't strong enough to run code, google colab pro costs money and i use my pc constantly so i cant have it running in the background without it lagging it out. running jupyter off of my xbox is cheaper and i dont  have to pay for longer run times so i can have something running 24/7 without any extra costs (other than electricity)  or unexpected stops. basically its seems like a good idea to run on the xbox but idk.

Keep in mind that even if you manage to get a jupyter server running on your xbox, you still won't be able to do anything GPU-accelerated, so performance will still be really poor.

hey @igormp, why is that? Because I was wondering if I could do the same thing myself.

First of all, the Xbox one has an AMD GPU, so it's already DOA for anything ML 

 

Second, you'd need to get the proper software tools installed to get GPU-accelerated stuff going on (CUDA for nvidia, ROCm or something similar for AMD).
