(On Android), if you don't care about the (old) WhatsApp media, just delete it from your phone. It's all just loose files in `/storage/android/data/com.whatsapp` (or thereabouts). The text content of the chats

iTerm2: cmd+shift+a = select output of last command. I can then cmd+c, open whatever editor I want (or `pbpaste | less` if I want `less`).

The recovery codes I've seen tend to have been 10 8-digit sequences. If you don't have a printer and care about recovery codes, those are easy enough to transfer manually onto dead-tree material using a stylus-like handheld device

Heh, I used to get the best of both worlds with a patched uxtheme.dll... Took a bit of digging, but yeah, SlanXP was a theme I used a lot. https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/i/4b...

You'll be happy to know that Diskcache is backed by SQLite (and/or spill files for large enough (size configurable) blobs).

What if I run Stable Diffusion locally without paying anyone anything? Is it less immoral?

I didn't directly mention burning down the house, but I did say "The takeaway of this is that given the plug looks exactly like a standard USB-C phone charger's plug, it's easy for a novice user (say, a child whose phone

Lidl does this too – the rotary tool Parkside PFBS 12 B3 comes with a charger that's obviously not USB-PD, but has an USB-C plug and it puts out a solid 13 volts at all times. (See https://www.kompernass.com/en/acc

This would be a less-than-an-hour hack/prototype for a competent frontend engineer, FWIW.

This software won't help you. If you already have a .vtt, this is not a hard exercise to do e.g. entirely in a browser: parse the .vtt (they're simple text), lay out the text as you like with each segment being a clickable element

Yegh, old (occasionally not even 5 years old) soft-touch plastic turning sticky goopy. I cleaned that up off an old handheld vacuum with rough salt and water, of course turning it non-soft-touch in the process, but better than sticky goopy.

Just compile llama.cpp's server example, and you have a local HTTP API. It also has a simple UI (disclaimer: to which I've contributed). https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/exampl

Heh, I once wrote a script that disabled pretty much every darn service I could get away with on XP, and ended up with an estimated 7 hours (or so, it's been a while) of offline battery life on an Eee PC 901...
