Unfortunately not, but it does support tab grouping which I use for basically this reason.Althought you can't do a group within a group.

At the very least they could not increase prices while simultaneously putting ads.

The way I think about it is that LLMs are just a tool, and if you trust the tool too much it can backfire. It reminds me of this video [1] that Louis Rossman posted regarding a police officer essentially trusting his AI tool (Flock cameras) too much and falsely accusing a woman of a crime, claiming "you can't take a breath of fresh air without us knowing about it".

A while back I joined this group called OnlineGreatBooks.com which placed you in a cohort of about 10 people who would have monthly seminars via Zoom to discuss the Great Books of the Western World. They started you off with How to Read a Book by Mortimer Adler and it was such a useful guide for me, who had not read a book in about 10 years after graduating high school. Since then I read maybe 10 to 12 books a year!

I particularly enjoy the idea of writing notes in the margin. Adler describes this as "having a conversation with the author". I hope that my son one day picks up my books and writes his own notes to have a conversation with the author and me.

This 100%. For me, the philosophy is not so much a terminal-centric design but a keyboard-centric design. Sure, this could be done in a GUI, but even GUIs with a keyboard-centric design are not as fluid as a TUI.

I'll also add that (like the parent comment) I did not get the appeal. Not until I forced myself to use it more and saw the benefits.

I wouldn't say delusional. At the top of the decade it did seem like it was a plausible evolution as remote work became more popular, what with the pandemic and everything.

In Ready Player One, what made VR so ubiquitous was that the real world had gone to shit. Perhaps that is the true prerequisite for widespread VR adoption?

Yes ;)

This is true. Battlefield 6 is in this boat

I could see Steam creating the OASIS

I snagged a Pixel 8A for around 200 on ebay.

Could either of those be considered a major Android OEM? I was thinking Motorola.

Honestly it's not surprising at all but it's worth discussing as they are the first AI service to announce this.

I understand what sideloading means, as I'm sure the rest of HN knows. But to the layman non-techie, it has indeed been marketed as a boogeyman.

Even in the Android developers blog post:

> We’ve seen how malicious actors hide behind anonymity to harm users by impersonating developers and using their brand image to create convincing fake apps. The scale of this threat is significant: our recent analysis found over 50 times more malware from internet-sideloaded sources than on apps available through Google Play.

The research paper that shows their methodology for discovering these results AHS not been published by Google, to my knowledge. Just a mere "trust me, bro".

Edit to include link to source: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2025/08/elevating-...

Agreed. "Sideloading" has been marketed as a boogeyman opening doors to malware, when in fact malware exists on the play store anyway.

I'm running it on a secondhand pixel 8a I picked up for 200 bucks! It's great

I added a numeric layer where my left thumb activates the layer key and the numbers are arranged like a numpad on my right half. The dedicated number keys at the top row are now f keys. Highly recommend

I had not heard of Lynx, but I am a big fan of Kvaesitso. Looks like I'll need to give Lynx a try!

Kvaesitso! I've been using it for about two years. It takes a little bit getting used to a search based launcher but once you've gotten used to it, everything is so quick. Speed up animation speeds to 0.5x in dev settings and man it's like doing kung fu with your finger tips.

Maybe I'm not understanding something here, but Kvaesitso has wallpaper blur and darkening effects.
