I cannot help wondering if the 'we won't train on your data' applies across the fence over there in pentagon land, where the classified contracts be. Yeah, of course they are not connected. Or.. Present user-llm activity is a

Serious question (for me): How would you rate fastmail strictly in terms of perseverence over time, ie will it still be here a decade from now? Confidence in that alone would move me there.

I am in Florida, where as little as a summer week in a hot vehicle can destroy a fine pen. Not a Fisher though. My work-pen has seen two years now and still writes. And a Fisher draws a substantially longer line than just about any other pe

The mechanical pencil, though disclaimed by the webmaster as not an exclusive theme, is a subject worthy of worship. I have a handcrafted cocobolo holder for my Pentel GraphGear 500, and a protective travel case too. Despite not being very

I had excellent results using a large section of black bamboo, though I forget the exact taxonomy (lako?). I meticulously beat out the segment walls, then with a rasp fastened to a long stick, filed down the ridges. After sanding, I finishe

I appreciate the offer, and I am seriously interested in testing. I'm not able to right now. If the offer stands in the future, I have a lot of material.

For all models I use the best mode offered. But this happens with all of them. Claude, Gemini, GPT, Grok...And even in Perplexity. Perhaps I should not log in.

I concur with the other fellow expressing doubt that folks hate using AI. Not sure though. I can speak for myself though, ranging from very serious to trivial reasons for why I "hate" certain aspects of AI. I've seen both end

Exactly. But there's ideology, and there's reality. You know how pervasive and colossal the black budget is. We could be, as a society, almost unimaginably advanced of where we are, sans such things, sans the modern patent system,
