Installed GrapheneOS on my Pixel 10 yesterday, only used the stock rom to start the installer... Am feeling a little unconfortable due to this situation: [0]. Hope this gets better. Really feeling the dislike for Google on this one.

"But Google got caught precisely because of their own file‑restore robot, and this is my technical checkmate against them:"

Claudish (but not all of the text seems to be). Idk, I read this all day and am getting allergic to it. It's always the load-bearing decision worth my thought, and then some contradiction. It's not just this, it's THIS and THIS.

I've been using some GLM5.2 via Mistral lately and it doesn't have this... tone... But it makes some mistakes sometimes that Claude wouldn't.

Idk, just the idea that this was artificial expanded, makes me feel anyone could have written it, I could ask Claude for it directly. There will be no insight, even though there may be. What is happening to me, I am not anti AI.

Yeah I lost my phone some months ago. Quite the panick because I am also MS365 admin for 2 orgs... 3 hr later a trucker called my wife using the iPhone emergency contact feature (what a hero). Now I bought an iPad that stays at home and has all the apps. Honestly, I should also put a second phone somewhere else.

Also frees me up to experiment a bit more on the Phone side (just got a Pixel 10 with GrapheneOS), although, so far it all just works (with Google Services of course).

It's annoying that you really do need either Android or iOS nowadays. If only we could virtualize one of those platforms properly (and free as in freedomly).

I always like Fosdem (in Belgium, very close.)

Yeah, I have some boxes with some actions like: match positions in email to my skill set, make top 10, send on Telegram, and one box makes attachments out of emails and forwards to book keeping.

Sounds like a natural addition to Agentmail [0]

In general I'd like more services to maintain a wall between me and agent, but then again, we can also let the agents build it.

One could argue that effectively Blink is also not open source. At any rate users don't have power over it, as witnessed by the manifest v3 stuff jammed down our throats.

I think it is easy to just roll of a local maximum, however, you may get stuck in a local minimum.

I kid, of course, but I do wonder where the use of local "maximum" comes from, what is maximum there? Why do you not see this as a landscape of hills and valleys where marbles with certain energies may indeed get stuck in deep enough holes... Of course, I just assume and picture gravity pointing down in that landscape, but hey. I'm human, I feel it is expected of me.

Ah, you must be too young to have experienced early Internet Explorer, which attempted just this.

Not sure if the term "full-text helmet" is proof of AI slop, just human sloppiness on the part of the French makers of the site, or that it stands out because of my unfamiliarity with the English language. But the concept looks nice regardless.

Edit: Later is says: "... major segment of motorcycle hhelmets ..." so it's just an extremely sloppy translation, I can't see an LLM making such mistakes, I guess it's proof of human sloppiness (or proof of a prompt: "Add some errors so people won't think this is all genAI". What a time to be alive that one can have such thoughts.)

This is interesting, I also do this, it will not let me remember the commands, but, I will learn what is possible and roughly how. And in this day and age that is more important. Just like stamping knowledge into your head also became less important (but not 0 important) with books and the internet.

Just want to chip in: I love you "yanks", not so much your politics and your imperialistic tendencies, but nearly all Americans I met were nothing but kind (coast to coast, left or right).

The "Common Foe" principle at work.

"Radical Farmer Leaders" are mentioned as stimulating these actions today.

I think national news indeed is somewhat carefully suggesting farmers (ie [0]), actually it looks like it is escalating and they burning hay now. This article speaks of "Radical Farmer Leaders".

It all comes down to " Privatize profits, socialize losses." It's the American way.

Here it is: "We warned you you should have regulated us! Now this mess is your fault and responsibility!"

Previously (~2008) it was "We're too big to fail, save us to save the economy!"

Yes it changed, first it reduced the transparency in many places, most notably in notifications, and made the glass dark. Now it makes the glass just a black plastic, but also in the launcher, where dark icons don't pop out anymore.

The old setting was the perfect balance for me. Ah well, iPhone 12 mini is nearly dead, am eyeballing something with GrapheneOS anyway...

“Hurd Linux”? Maybe leave that judgement to Torvalds.

Canonical is a company they do what the CEO wants. And you are free to do what you want.

Quick question: are the fruits of your labor mostly given away for free?

What happened is that the accessibility setting “reduce transparency” which indeed used to reduce transparency and made glass backgrounds darker, now makes them fully black. So dark icons don’t come out of the background anymore. What we got back is a slider that does not make the glass darker, just more opaque. But notifications are still white on light glass. So it really got worse for me.

In my head the RV was parked and the VR provides a virtual office in the small space :)

Jeez, it's an accessibility feature and they just turned it off!

I don't mind liquid glass and can handle the transparency mostly, but the notifications are just god-awful and difficult to read (white on light glass, using dark mode, who comes up with this stuff?).

But reducing transparency is a much harder setting now (should be "removing transparency"), I don't like it anymore, it also messes with the wallpaper. The previous setting was just right for me. Now the app squares are just black, very bad with dark icons.

Hmm, got the liquid glass slider, put it all the way to the right, but still lost a lot of contrast in my notifications...

Not cinema size, and not with your poor eyes focused on "infinite". And not any of this on a plane, or a train, or a self driving car, or an RV.

I have in claude.md and it has in it's memory that it is my thinking partner. I don't want any action until I explicitly tell it to do so. And I don't want fancy dialogs because the options disappear when you dismiss them... Just recently Claude wrote some bash and changed 3 files even though it was in Plan Mode! It's maddening sometimes. It wastes so many tokens with stuff I have explicitly told it not to do. Sometimes I'll even add to a prompt "remember we're just thinking this through".

Great "elaboration" (actually it's an "example"), indeed pulling everything into the political dimension is one of the concerning things regarding anything Linux nowadays, imho. Next up: DHH!

ok, that's concerning, if you post it here I'll vote for it (after confirming).
