It's very verbose even when prompted to remain brief, but it's still not a bad model and I use it a lot.

Good article. I remember being very skeptical of Athlon because the K6 I owned before was subjectively muss less stable than any Intel I had used until then. So felt it was only a question of time until IA64 would establish itself. Since, a

This is indeed great. I've been using emailjs dot com for low volume sending so far but they connect to your account and send it through there which is obviously problematic.. Will be interesting to see how pricing for low volumes is t

Dick move. Go back to "do no evil" big G. Remember how you used to be the kool kid on the block? Now you've just become the grown up you showed contempt for in your prime time. I doubt I'll move away from Android too soo

Agreed on battery. I started with a 6a and only ever had the fingerprint in the front. I thought it's well designed and works well (as long as I stick to office job activities.. as soon as you start doing handy works it has its issues.

Yup. Fortunately Graphene OS will likely soon run just as well as on their previous hardware. You can re-googlify it as much as you're comfortable with.

Phones are not the hot commodity they used to be anymore and that's a good thing IMHO. I just bought a Px7 after breaking my 6a that I had for 3 years. I did look at the Px10 specs but with the price/value it was an easy decision.

I can only attest to that. Been using it for 3 years on a Pixel 6a. The only thing I'd wish for, is a scrolling PDF viewer. In any case, thank you for all the work so far!

Not surprised. Sadly OpenAI putting the lid on a few of those ops is hardly causing any impact. Worst case they'll just run it offline. Seems large parts of the web have already been AI polluted. Try looking for any information and not

I'll pay for an adblocker first just to reward their design choice. Do no evil turned into don't do any good either.

Yeah and they're not alone, Amazon Prime Video is getting really obnoxious too.

Haha, good one. So in California you can say whatever neonazi shizz you like and buy Hitler's books because of the 1st ammendent but you can't have an 88 on your state issued vanity license plate (what about randomly issued ones?)

...I'll argue that those that didn't participate in that vote elected to opt out. I.e. Don't cry if you didn't care to participate and then don't get what you wanted.

True but that lies in the nature of choices people make. Apart from mortgage (or in general credit on appreciable assets) I would not recommend the on-credit lifestyle that is ad-suggested as the American Dream™ (that's different for b

Hehe, Google used to be cool when I studied but now it's just advertising and zero customer contact. But sure, business (or maybe big corp) fits now where it used to be more of a startup enterprise back in the late 2000. We worked with

There were some comments on pricing that I'd like to comment on: As a one man startup that's fully self-funded I deeply appreciate the prices that aren't straight out of Sillicon Valley. I believe in free market and really do

Short term there's some suffering but while hobbyists are definitely more price sensitive, they are also the most flexible ones. In production you don't just need one piece, you need a steady supply and any change of components af

Have you tried Grok 3? It's a bit verbose for my taste even when prompted to be brief but answers seem better/more researched and less opinionated. It's also more willing to answer questions where the other models block an an

Airlines (and our corp. interface to it) seem to still rely on those. Kinda weird but fun to see HR/Travel people using those. They definitely have their place still.

User friendliness wise nothing beats Grok3 because it warns that a pro should be consulted but usually still gives you an answer, mostly even a good one. OpenAi and bigG are strongly biased and refuse to go into anything remotely controvers
