In what way failed? Because it's like saying P2P failed because the big corps don't like it and try their best to stop it, while still existing for quite a while.

For me they worked, you need to change the capture date when viewed within IA.

Downloads and scans are generally trash unless deemed important. For the phones and cameras, setup Nextcloud and have it automatically sync to your own home network. Then have a nightly backup to another disk with a health check after it fi

If I've got to side blindly with any entity it is definitely not going to be Meta. That's all there is.

What else should they do then? GPL is a good call. Most keep the output under their own personal/company IP.

We are not really doing anything about climate change which has maybe 0.001% of NOT happening, do you think we would do anything for the reverse? It was and it is always going to be business as usual.

Off-topic but I'd totally read a blog from you where you use this pent-up bitterness against the current system to present bs nobody really talks about. It's quite refreshing. Just for your information.

Not sure but one requires you to keep on paying the tax.

Just to argue reading vs doing: I know lots of heavy readers who can't absolutely do something new. They only read and read. On the other hand, doing is a totally different skillset. I'm not against reading just that it's ver

Of course, you cannot summarise something which doesn't exist. Even with a perfect summary, the source is still going to give something more. Nobody is arguing against that.

Present both and you'd have a pretty decent summary of the Odyssey.

So, if you don't fancy Python you must be labeled a Ruby developer? Weird take.

LLMs have already been absolutely worthwhile in many of my projects, so I guess it's already inevitable for me.

And then wait for when the well-funded and publicly supported A decides that B is evil and needs to be taken down.

Shouldn't surprise absolutely nobody, once you become the gatekeeper of the Internet, you're going to gatekeep. Now it's torrent sites and next it's going to be other things the party in charge doesn't like.

I think it depends on the upbringing on such kids: if you collect alone in the dark and share none of it with your kids before you're gone then it's not surprising that they wouldn't know what to do with any of those.

I re-read your comment 5 times and I still don't see the difference you're trying to highlight. What I got is: people buy games and they don't play most of them. Is it wrong?

To be fair, if they manage to play the Frozen song on a classic Game boy color, I'd let them.

Great way to allow your kid to play the Frozen song on repeat every hour of the day :D

One could try to be poetic with LLMs in order to make their point stronger and still convince absolutely no one who wasn't already convinced. I'm sure nobody really reject the notion of LLMs but sure as hell do like to moan if the

On the other hand if you don't use vim, emacs, and other spawns from hell, you get labeled a noob and nothing can ever be said about their terrible UX. I think we can be more open minded that an absolutely brand new technology (literal

I think you are seeing it slightly skewed: in the past, for a variety of reasons, the US got at the forefront of tech and got even richer in some pockets of the country. The EU and other countries had some pretty compelling competitors whic

Sane computer design, in what way? I still see unopenable devices, batteries glued to death and even more closed systems. Next they reverted to liquid glass UI, is that sane?

Where would you place it? I'm curious because centre-right is quite spot on.
