I was hoping this was minimal enough for somebody with dementia to use to make calls, but when they say "Phone" they don't mean like the old folks do. I kept reading though, kind-of envying the physical keyboard because that

Yeah so like that XKCD, the cops have a post-it in their car with your details. But like fashion it's also making a statement.

I despise Salesforce, but when I landed on this page I was like, huh. wow. honesty. Looks at GitHub So yeah you're exactly right, the snark is not deserved if you ask me, and I'm 82% snark.

I worked for a company with co-CEOs. The ideas CEO left and the company tanked. I think there's a right way to have an ideas CEO but maybe a balance helps keep them from switching everybody to C# on a whim. A CEO without ideas seems li

They did say "less shady" but at this point Anthropic and OpenAI are approaching parity.

I think it'd be cool to compare a modern day life in rural Ethiopia to what I'm used to.

I use Aurora on GOS. I get that they say sandboxed Play is more secure than Aurora, but I prefer it for its lack of toxicity and absence of shitty dark patterns. I think the increased popularity of GOS is going to draw in more users like me

I'm a climber so I'm biased but I really liked your climbing harness example because of the configuration you're able to easily make to the harness. Saying the harness is like a car's chassis doesn't work as well fo

There's more than one model for news and some of those models don't even result in advertising-controlled biases. Public media sites employ journalists for instance.

Maybe you're right. The important thing is to remember this moment the next time you're signing up for a free product that seems just a little too good to be true.

I have another, similar example, though not quite as insidious. I switched to GrapheneOS and it's been mostly great. Unfortunately Graphene's stock camera creates drab shots compared to what the hardware supports. OpenCamera is av

I share a similar feeling. I don't have a Framework but I do self-host Metabase. Reading this headline is how I learned of the 0-day and updated my pod.

I wish we lived in a reality where Framework was anywhere near rich enough to acquire them. I'd love to have models on a chip that I could swap in at a whim. That would do the opposite by eliminating moats. I guess there's a tiny
