Once its dialed in, its as good as Kagi. But I still haven't tried to integrate it into all my devices outside of my computer. I still need to try it with tailscale. I also feel like a really good local LLM can be better. I'd love

Web scraping for LLMs has almost completely ruined the search experience. In the past I could search for simple questions, and quickly get an answer without even having to click through to the links. This was horrible for web traffic, but t

Imagine if we had laws that required all LLM compute to come from solar, or other sustainable power sources. We could have used the market's thirst for AI as a backchannel way to force creation of new sustainable energy. In contrast to

Its like a motor bike, except it doesn't take you where you steer. It take you where it wants to take you. If you tell it you want to go somewhere continents away, it will happily agree and drive you right into the ocean. And this is

I honestly think its a symptom of having almost no "career mobility". If it's impossible to get promoted / find better jobs, then being skilled doesn't go as far as brown-nosing. People will only apply themselves if

Here's the most stripped down launcher in the world: https://github.com/fandreuz/TUI-ConsoleLauncher I don't need icons, swiping, widgets, or any of that nonsense. This one works great and you can ssh, use tm

I would love for an audit of sites to see if any popular sites still do collect the data when you click no. Or if you just land on the banner page, and close the tab.

Yeah, you're really not going to find many people blasting gustav mahler in the forest for example. It's always pop music.

My exact complaint. What is the "handmade" community? At first I thought he was talking about woodworking or knitting. Also the reddit comparison is great, but I wish he would have talked about why the slop is there in the first

To play devils advocate, telling other people to turn off thier music is also "imposing preferences on other people". I do agree with what they're saying though.

Why would you upskill as a QA when you can become a dev? Every single QA person I know only became a QA as a stepping stone. That's now it's seen. Companies don't care about QA, so of course you don't see any QA wizards

At least in my area, WFH is going away and RTO is increasing. More and more of my friends can not meet up for lunch breaks for example. It seems counterintuitive to restrict where people can be, and expect them to meet new people. I don&#x2

As someone that makes my own keyboard firmware, 100% agree. For most people, typing speed isn't a bottleneck. There is a whole community of people that type faster than 250wpm on custom, chording-enabled keyboards. The tradeoff is that

Only speaking for myself, but I have "front end exhaustion". Text based sites like this are the only ones I spend any time on anymore. There's no reason to "learn" a UI or use shortcuts on most sites, because they c

1. Pass a law letting people WFH where its reasonably possible. I WFH in a walkable city and me and my friends try new restaurants every week, always around noon. I've met lots of new people, and joined new groups that I wouldn't

Im talking about making full melt distillate. Crappy dab sludge can't go in a cart. It requires actual distillation to make what they put in the carts. QWISO is a joke. I promise you, if it was easy, you would see more people making ca

Weed disposables are a whole rabbit hole by themselves. You want to buy a disposable? Ok, here, $20 and you're done. But if you want to make the oil at home? Ok, $2000 for lights, timers, nutrients, seeds, and a grow tent. Plus anoth

There definitely are "alcohol junkies"; we just call them alcoholics

Yeah, in my state, with disposable I can get any flavor. But if I want juice or pods, I can only get nasty tobacco flavor. It's an easy choice. Also, when you do get juice online or from other states, it doesn't hit as hard /

Let me ask you, is TOR even still safe or worth it? I'm seriously asking cause I don't know. I heard that the US govt runs a lot of the exit nodes now. So maybe it's safe, as long as you don't live in the US?

This is amazing! I think this could actually catch on! Plz give an easy way to follow some tags so it's not showing me football stuff. If it was just topics I was interested in, I could scroll this for hours.

Yep, hardware attestation is becomming more common, even with websites. This is why LineageOS is actually dead in the water, even though they're "in talks with hardware vendors". It doesn't matter when people can't
