What?

Pretty sure I hugged it to death with the post. Was working fine for the last couple of days.

Ok cool, but I’ll still support this initiative, because as FUTO states, a keyboard should not connect to the internet.

You’re missing the whole anonymization layer they’ve implemented here. If actual typing data is used, the app can’t guarantee user control of the data after opt-in. The data they’re using here is not private user typing data to begin with.

I’d recommend listening to Louis Rossman’s talks on the subject.

Data is data! You’re a use case, regardless of swipe ability.

The entire point of the keyboard is that it’s not built in. The philosophy behind the organization making it says that it shouldn’t be built in.

Nope

No noticeable difference.

Do you have the LLM fine tuning enabled? Mine is pretty good after a few months of training it.

I thought so too! FUTO is a project worth supporting in my opinion.

This is not the brat summer I’ve been hearing about, I assume?

Can it be implied that they’re very graphic?

I’ve worked for and with some famous people. It doesn’t look like fun, I wouldn’t want it for myself. You’re surrounded by enablers who will reinforce your worst character traits. The public gets exhausting to deal with after a while. Sometimes you’re just having a bad day and don’t feel like taking selfies with random strangers instead of going about your day. Public figures can be difficult to get along with in close settings because of all these reasons and more.

Wouldn’t want to be one, I’ll happily take their money though.

The first one I remember using was good old Windows 98.

I hope Framework takes note and is working on their own ARM laptop.

I don’t know, you seem to be using more advanced vocabulary and word choice in this thread than could be explained just with autocorrect.

Sending love to you brother. I wish I knew the right magic words to say that would help you love yourself like you should. I hope one day you find what you need.

I’m throwing shots in the dark here, but your English seems very proficient. Is there a possibility that your excellent English skills could be an avenue to making money in your home country? Forgive my ignorance. I can feel your pain through your posts. Just wanna help.

I appreciate you taking my question in the spirit it was meant, and the thoughtful response.

I guess what rubbed me the wrong way about CEO Douchebag’s comment was that it discounts just how relatively enormous of an expense production can be for the small artists trying to make a living. I’ve spent some time in the music industry and it has left me with a bad taste in my mouth. The necessary evil of commerce intersecting with art is a big reason for that, especially coming to the realization of just how necessary that evil is.

But yes I agree, it is definitely possible to create excellent art of high technical quality from home.

I totally get where you’re coming from, have done the DIY production thing, etc. And with full respect to the piece of art you put your soul into, I have to ask, was it a commercial success? As in, paying the bills at home? Because in my experience, you do end up having to invest those kinds of sums if you want to make a return at that level. I hate how music is commerce, trust me. But that’s just what I’ve seen so far.

Production cost for a full length album STARTS at around $10-15k.

That’s a lot more than “zero” in my book.
