This is victim blaming. The customer is not the one deciding make the batteries non-removable. This is protection from Nintendo.

It's not that they didn't care, it's that they did care in the wrong way. A non-replacable battery means people will be more likely to buy a whole new device if (when) the battery fails.

What does "AGI" mean to you such that we have not had it for years already? Whenever I see people mention AGI it's in the future tense, as if we don't have artificial machines that can apply intelligence to general domai

Not sure why this was flagged, Anthropic has obviously been burning bridges. I thought this line was funny though: > If you want to autocomplete, like I do, you don’t need Fable, or even Opus; Sonnet works fine. It reads like "if yo

"Very often" sounds like a lot more than I would say. I've been using Qwen 3.6 27b Q4 in Pi (with out any anti-looping extension) daily for weeks now, and I've had it get stuck in an infinite loop maybe 3 or 4 times.

The most promising alternative is making it legal to build housing near where people want to be (commercial districts) and make it legal to build places people want to be near where they live (build cafes, shops, etc in suburbia). Any help

It's not wrong in the US. https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/transportation-sector-emiss... I'm also not breaking out personal SUVs and light trucks from "cars" because that'd be stupid.

It's important to emphasize that cars are the leading source of carbon emissions. Anyone fighting against AI on the basis of climate change should be fighting for safe and reliable alternatives to driving everywhere.

I read it as "Google is indifferent to me" rather than "Google specifically dislikes me", as a point of clarification that they didn't get access by being personally selected.

Can you link the model? I also have a 24gb card (7900 XTX). I've been having success with the dense 27b model, but I'd like to see if the 35b iq4 is any better.

I have been using pi (and previously the codex cli) with Qwen 3.6 27b with 100k context for my development at work, and I have been very blown away by how well it works. It's not perfect, but it's enough to accelerate my normal de

Parents would have a better chance at fighting back. Both with the time gained to communicate their disapproval, and a better relationship with their kids to be more likely to disapprove of it.

Facebook does seem to be falling behind. Does anyone here use Llama over more recent options for any technical reasons?

Or we could have UBI and parents could parent their kids without corporations babysitting for them.

Thanks for this link. I've been using jj for 2 years now. Whenever people ask me why, it's hard to explain. I'll have to keep this in my pocket for the future.

Yes. The difference is obviously that full, fat Linux runs on a superset of anything a layperson would call a computer, and can be built from source on roughly the same set of hardware. Running the full, fat Deepseek (as in the 1.6T model,

https://pi.dev specifically prides itself on having many extensions hook points. Is that one you've looked at? If so, it might be something they'd be willing to add a hook for if you open an issue.

Zig 0.16.0 was the big, recent async update. Go channels are handled as std.Io.Queue, the select keyword is handled with std.Io.Select, and goroutines are handled with std.Io.async and std.Io.concurrent. The difference between async and con

While a fun poc, surely it would be better to just use the API (see the footer)? Or just `curl | x2j | jq` and map the HTML directly to JSON?
