Hilarious, I love this take. I’d guess that “covert ops” using ChatGPT are amateurs, by definition (because it’s clearly not covert). Surely, the serious operators would use offline local LLMs.

I think Apple minimizes the importance of Lockdown Mode because nontechnical users will be confused when some things break when it is enabled, resulting in poor user experience and increased support burden. Lockdown Mode does effectively bl

Is it possible to use Ente just for the album sharing feature? I would like to upload a couple dozen images to a gallery and shared the link on social media. It’s not clear if I have save to give it access to all my photos to be able to use

Apple Photos is pretty good. Sync works well, the apps are decent, and the automatic OCR/AI search is very helpful. I’m disappointed that sharing an album isn’t possible with Lockdown Mode enabled.

What does paying for Pro provide that isn’t included in the free version? Free/Pro feature comparison isn’t included in the app description.

Until Starlink can lower prices to < $10/month, community-level ISPs will still be relevant to many locations (LatAm, etc). Starlink uplinks might even be used by the ISPs. I lived in a village in Colombia, population about 2000, wh

The author evaluates existing podcatcher apps, pointing out how they fail for newbies who may want to listen to a podcast starting with episode 1. There are some valid criticisms that apply to non-fiction podcasts too.

That's a good one, thanks. It gives me `18:09 UT`, which is `12:09 CST`. The Precision Eclipse calculator does seem to provide correct results in the US (e.g., 1:40 PM for Dallas TX). So, it must be a Mexico timezone calculation error.

Wolfram’s Precision Eclipse website gives the wrong time for the eclipse at my location (23.7188, -105.6706). It says, “Total Eclipse begins at 1:09:31 PM CST”: https://precisioneclipse.com/Results/46/b7/46b7e

That’s probably because many people have not enabled search indexing on their Mastodon accounts. If instead you search for the #PAG31 hashtag you’ll find nine different posters (still too few, but more than two).

I haven’t used the app yet, so I’m not exactly sure how it works. But I imagine it might be useful (It seems it’s always useful) to be able for it to export to structured plain text files so that it can be integrated in a note taking app li
