absolutely! no shade towards contributors, my impression was that compiling for iOS is just a bit of a moving target. everyone was willing and ready to help where they could, I just had a lot of trouble.

kivy, which does the same thing, has been around for over 10 years. I built my thesis in it a few years ago. not recommended—too many limitations and build issues in practice. given that this one is less mature...I'm not optimistic.

sorry, what? servo existing as a mozilla side project did not give it broad adoption

waterfox is downstream of firefox and can't meaningfully match mozilla's maintenance of the core browser librewolf devs are just more honest about it

I do believe it makes sense in this particular case. xPaw made it clear in his other half of the announcement that he's been burnt out for years, and a big portion of burnout is being asked to do things, whether you love them or not, f

you should read the other half of the announcement in which the founder talked about the burnout he was experiencing https://steamdb.info/blog/steamdb-nexus-mods/

I think that's perfectly reasonable if it means a more sustainable future

that's optimistic

need this for android. on average, it takes genuinely about five minutes to open—I think it reindexes my entire micro sd card every time.

enrico, at this point you're knowingly spreading misinformation. I corrected you in my last comment: the yandex search index is owned by the russian entity. there is no non-russian "yandex" anymore, period. > After a short

by bjord 2mo ago
this is absolutely not true. yandex IS the russia-related business that got sold in 2024, the dutch entity (now known as "nebius group") is basically just data centers now.

by bjord 2mo ago
I'm not saying I agree with it, but I think this comment > Yandex does not add any special feature or functionality that is so great they should make it obligatory to include as a default option. kind of captures kagi's argumen

by bjord 2mo ago
they're conflating yandex with the international entity that sold it off to russian investors (now known as "nebius group"). the entire basis of the argument is wrong.
16.
by bjord 2mo ago
no it didn't. the international entity sold off the vast majority of yandex businesses and assets to russian investors, then rebranded to "nebius group". that is to say that the yandex index/api used by kagi is wholly ru

I'm aware. regardless, when it comes to models, the advice to "not use Google in Production" falls short.

there was a community of people who used (famously sycophantic) gpt 4o as—for lack of a better word—a friend, who were devastated when it was shut down I suppose at least in this case the loss is not an emotional one?

have you experimented at all with the deepseek flash models?
20.
by bjord 3mo ago
in this case, the other frontier shops are all doing the same thing, so maybe the advice here should be "don't use closed weight models in production"?

firefox 149+ actually bundles brave's adblock-rust as well, it just doesn't really use it. waterfox does enable it and use it, though they're still testing ( https://github.com/BrowserWorks/waterfox/i

by bjord 3mo ago
this is not correct. neither brave nor edge has committed to that. as of yet, there's no (publicly stated) contingency plan if the upstream mv2 code is excised, but I could be mistaken.

I meant if you wanted to update the maps in your gauge cluster. https://update.kia.com you said they bothered you, so I suggested a fix. no obligation to do it if you don't care.

by bjord 3mo ago
you actually may be able to update these. it's worth looking into.

they're not saying it's fair to consumers, they're saying "it's not just apple, microsoft does it too", i.e. that judgement on apple should be made in the context of how its competitors behaved

valve themselves also personally employ multiple major contributors to the amd linux drivers https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-Marek-Joins-Valve
28.
by bjord 3mo ago
drivers for what else, exactly? valve is already regularly upstreaming work in major open source linux drivers (and has been for a long time) for example: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Valve-Old-AMD-Linux-Love-Song

this is sarcasm, right?

by bjord 4mo ago
I'm aware that it was marketing. I was trying to make the point that if it were really so dangerous, they wouldn't have released it at all, (prompt injectable) "safeguards" or otherwise.
