If this project sees the value of privacy & security for local & self-hosted LLM chat, why does this project only offer proprietary, corpo means for contributions & communications?

My phone, laptop, & DAP all conveniently have a headphone jack so I can enjoy better quality sound, with no lantency, no spotty connectivity, no pairing lag, no need for firmware upgrades or proprietary apps, a cheaper price, easy to find the monitors since they are tethered together, & with better sustainability without lithium ion batteries while never have to worry about charge either.

What was the upside of wireless again?

These are much less efficient than a cable & put additional strain on the battery

Bunked sleeping buses like Vietnam should be more normalized too so you can lay down for long hauls.

I bring this up regularly. Trading a doctor for a doctor seems like a fair enough trade & many folks want mobility. The irony of “if you don’t like it here, then leave” being met with your & other nations making it exceedingly difficult to do that. I know several folks would love to have my US passport but where I am at, I would get a lot more value & ease in having a local passport form entry to nearby countries, to visa woes + residency, to opening accounts (dealing with the IRS+SEC means many, many places refuse service), dual pricing, & actually getting some semblence of integration.

He pointed out a bunch of JavaScript plugins don’t work in WINE but I’m not following what it does that Picard + ffmpeg + many other audio players can’t do. It seems worth losing a feature or two or having to adopt a small composition of tools …or building it yourself / paying a bounty for a feature.

git send-xmpp & darcs send --xmpp for realtime, decentralized collaborative patches. The extensibility could fix the UX issues with patches by email & wouldn’t require accounts on someone else’s server or using the severely flawed ‘pull request’ model.

He’s the perfect size—they shouldn’t make YouTubers bigger than that

Yup. That is the tradoff. I’m willing to accept that one.

The hardware is good & you can get phones under 6".

They have 2 big flaws: price & years of continued support. The catch 22 is you can get a good price on them after the support window (2 years, but looks like 5 will be going forward). Luckily LineageOS always picks up after the support window if willing to take on possible firmware vulnerabilities knowing software will continue to be updated—but the camera requires the proprietary apps/libs or it looks low-end.

Not in my ideal spot but tolerating Android via LineageOS for microG on a Sony Xperia 5 III as their ROMs make microG painless & hardware-wise I get a fast-enough CPU, OLED, a headphone jack, & microSD.

The appeal would be with a limited albeit large set of characters, items, & rules, you can have effectively an infinite set of outcomes due to the dice rolls of teammates but also champions/heroes chosen on team. It is almost impossible to see the same game twice unlike. There is skill expression & build mechanics that allow a player to outplay or recover matchups & adjust to the state of the game on the fly. With every game starting over at zero, you don’t get invested in building a specific character, but in mastering the gameplay which can go from micro mechanics to macro. I think a lot of folks liked it coincidentally at a time with better broadband for communications for this style of game, developers doing frequent patches to force meta shakeups & e-sports + streaming also taking off. But also a sunk cost fallacy of having invested the time to git gud not bothering to learn any game too similar.

I just had a nice cup of Thai white tea, which induced the opposite of rage 🍵

💯

It’s not the standard tho. Every style guide says this is an error it with the optional exception of single-character capital letters …such as Oakland A’s.

The rage-inducing MOBA’s what? Real cliffhanger at the end of this meme.

I hate that I still fall for it year after year… I love pizza 😂

The first page I went to was: https://ente.io/community/ where the big 3 priority links are Discord, Figma, Microsoft GitHub–these are Ente’s priority platforms. Seeing no alternative to the code forge under ‘Community’, I was curious if ‘Contact’ had listed another forge or a mailing list since this page is generally where you find email addresses. The page did not have an alt forge or mailing list, but there was a call to how they prioritize communications for their free software on nonfree Discord & MS GitHub.

Matrix sucks, but it as a chat option in the ‘better’ category. Bugs can be reported via email according to the ‘Contact’ page …but there is no other option for sending patches–not one of your 10 links.

Start with good, accesible tools you can have control of—either by self-hosting or that they have their source code available so you can suggest fixes, or migrate off later. Choosing proprietary software like this leads to inevitable lock-in so why start there if we have seen this play out many times?
