that's pretty cool. I have a hope that despite the giant mountain of shit that is going to be produced from LLMs in the future, there's going to be a small number of people out there doing cool things with them. I am completely ignorant on the gaming hardware front, but I hope we see more/better emulators and old games being brought back to life with improved performance and compatibility with modern OSs.

  I think like any technology it can be used for positive or negative outcomes. It certainly makes either easier.

Is OpenClaw / Hermes doing anything better than another harness for RE stuff ? I'm using Kimi Code with few skills, MCPs and that's basically everything I need. Am I missing something ?

  In my case it has its own Docker container it can do as it pleases in, is more usable from a smartphone on the go, and has tooling geared toward long-lived loops, including automatic session resumption after power loss.

    My OpenCode setup has most of this. Automatic resumption is kind of cool. Could you go into the the tooling for long-lived loops?

      Kanban boards, in-system cron tasks, automatic skill creation and improvement, automatic context compression, and more. Herems is better suited as an independent agent in my opinion, and I still see OpenCode as primarily an interactive one. Sure, you can hammer OpenCode into an independent agent I'm sure, but I'd rather use a system someone else has put more hours of thought and design into.

And publishing them in F-Droid?

  I don't think the licensing would allow for that. I might get away with archive.org, but I'm still looking into that.
