I was thinking you scrape your own website every day in the middle of the night when traffic is low, and make that available. They can come and collect it every day if they want to.

How about a website header with a link to a static zip that contains the whole website in one hit. The Zip could be hosted on some big public sever. Perhaps even mirrored locally for each nation.

I agree, if up-to-data data was available somewhere else and free, there would be no reason to pay hackers and scrape. You could perhaps even get website operators to "push" new data to a common crawl database. The scrapers would

I have an anecdote to contribute. I been doing a lot of Bender. Keyboard on left hand and Mouse on right. The keyboard shortcuts in Blender are excellent, but there are _many_. I know this sounds silly, but what really breaks my flow is mov

My 15 year old kid annoys me because he will do a full shut down just to go eat his dinner. I'm like "just let it sleep" and he's like "No!"

I've been posting under my real name for over 20 years because this was always going to be the case. Using my real name is a constant reminder to not to post things I might later regret.

Yes, but, it has to be done, so we should just get started planting those trees. Keep working on the tech in parallel. It's all well and good to switch to solar, but we also need to capture all the carbon already released. We need to p

I was reading the threads about local AI closely yesterday. Some people seem happy with it. If I had the cash, I'd spend 6-10k on a strix halo with 128 GB and run it local with no internet connection. I think the Framework desktop is s

I thought of an example of how this should work. My parents used to go to the same restaurant every Friday night, for many many years. A little chit chat at the register each visit, it doesn't take long before you actually enjoy seeing

nope, Super Mario is just hard. I set the SNES up for the kids to give it a try. It's all skill and memory and repetition. Modern games just don't want to be to punishing. They want everybody to enjoy themselves.
