At this point I simply don't care about Anthropic or OAI in the slightest, the exciting stuff is coming from China with great, cheap SOTA models and local AI that people can run themselves.

I use bubblewrap directly, never liked Flatpak.

> 90% of features for systems half a decade old This can be a good tradeoff. An M1 Ultra still runs circles around 90% of consumer hardware sold today, and with Linux it has easily another 10+ years. Now support for M3 is coming. > As

Yeah for a lot of us macOS really gets in the way of using the otherwise excellent hardware. My daily driver is an M1 Pro with Asahi and it's easily my favorite computer ever. It's a real shame that the newer M models can't r

I get ~10 tok/sec on a M1 Ultra, but the real issue is abysmal prompt processing which makes it unusable. On the M1 and M2 series MTP is actively harmful for performance.

What signals? Looking more like a tiered release.

Any good LLM should be able to come up with the equivalent git and curl commands fairly easily.

I'm doing much the same, avoid the long thinking loops and instead have more iterations on the plan with reviews from different angles.

When I set up my local AI server I tried different harnesses and one prompt was to build a site for a consultancy in my domain. Not long after an actual agency I know had a website redesign and it was the exact same thing I got from my loca

6 or 7 years here, no news or socials. I keep telling people the same thing, you find out about the important stuff real quick regardless. The rest is noise and rage bait.

He is well aware. This is just another pathetic attempt at being handed a monopoly based on fear-mongering and protectionism.

Indeed, and I kinda miss it. My first couple IT jobs were right in Central London and we would all religiously meet at the pub after work, along with hundreds from other companies of all kinds. The banter was glorious.

Don't be so naive. He only wants a monopoly and a massive IPO.

Most hated company in record time, this Dario is insufferable.

> there is plenty of reporting suggesting their response will be similar There is? Xi Jinping himself openly talked very recently about China's commitment to open weights models.

They are lobbying hard for a monopoly, or duopoly at best, in AI, based on protectionism rather than merit.

I have that setup for my home network regardless. And my TV is the original C1 OLED, nothing compared when I got it. I wouldn't buy LG today.

They hardcode DNS servers into the TV. You need a firewall in front of the pihole intercepting that traffic, I use OpenWrt.

OAI and HF basically saying that Chinese models are the only practical countermeasure available to us plebs. Got it.

I won't be giving a dime to the companies that stole all the IP in the world and are now gatekeeping it, acting as the rightful owners, and trashing the hardware market for everyone else in the process. So it's Chinese models or n

Same here. Tried MLX twice at different times after reading the claims here but it always does considerably worse for me than llamacpp.

by regexorcist 2mo ago
Thanks for that, I've been using it but some of these are bad. Specially that it sends data to the cloud by default for session titles, since I use my local model exclusively. So I'm done with it, trying maki now which seems promi

Also don't agree with the optional policies, they can be unchecked if you already did. That disables a bunch of crap too.

There is plenty of malware for Linux. The difference is that the OS won't install it for you.

I have a pihole in front of my LG TV blocking nearly every DNS query it tries. I only allow a couple streaming apps I do use and see zero ads.

Seriously, why use Windows in 2026? Such a hideous OS and ecosystem with endless malware, backdoors, and dark patterns.

Arch is also great for Intel macbooks around that age.

I honestly don't know how people manage without it. Most of us sit all day for work. My body will literally demand that I hit the weight room after a few days, otherwise I'll have trouble sitting for hours, sleeping, etc.
