This would have been better received if they just didn’t use AI in the name. Sure, it’s just using an LLM under the hood, but it’s running purely locally. It also betters Linux since it helps address an accessibility issue.

Makes it easier for us to not preorder.

If they could get a closed system where the intake air doesn’t become contaminated, this could work well with things like recon drones where they would be able to stay up in the air indefinitely.

Yet somehow less valuable. Isn’t it just a fork of VSCode with more AI tools built in?

Just drop the AUR and swap those packages to flatpak/appimage.

I use button remapper to intercept the home button to go to Projetovity. You can also remove the Google launcher which can help with resources on the system too.

Firestick is moving away from android to their own thing.

If you choose to get an Nvidia Shield, I would recommend the Projectivy Launcher to avoid the “recommended” content from Google on the home screen.

Won’t helium be affected by this change? They bundle Unlock Origin, so they will not be able to do that if they want to follow chromium still. They may have to swap to forking off Brave who uses their own blocking engine.

Great game. I have yet to play the sequel, but it’s on my list.

Military is too unstable with the frequent government shutdowns. You would have to be part of something that is mission critical avoid inconsistencies.

One of the largest issues is the American mindset when it comes to buying vehicles. Many people consider all of their needs, even those that might be yearly. Most EVs have the range to handle 99% of most peoples trips, but they consider that last 1% of a yearly road trip when thinking about range. It’s one of the reasons that Trucks and SUVs are so popular with their higher capability.

I wouldn’t call what we have now as true artificial intelligence. That doesn’t mean that we will not achieve it in the future.

It’s stupid how much they are pouring into hardware that might be vastly obsolete. By the time AI becomes truly intelligent, there may be specialized chips that are efficient at running models that blow GPUs out of the water.

Look at how it happened to bitcoin mining. Nobody serious is using a GPU to mine when ASIC is available.

However, I don’t see all this hardware hitting the second hand market once a better solution is found. I’m sure they will keep trying to make compute hard to get for the average person so they can rent out their servers for a crazy price.

I use Zed with either Sonnet or Gemini. I do plan to swap to using Qwen locally since my hardware has no issues running it.

I’m excited for the frame, just worried about the cost.

Down to 3.99% for those looking for Linux numbers.

They are so close to understanding a solution, but they failed to choose the correct one.

The real issue is that it is legal for these companies to stalk us then sell that data freely. Limit data collection for all citizens and heavily punish companies who continue to track.

Good on Canada to protect their media industries instead of letting American firms drown them out.

If you want to do businesses in a country, don’t complain when they ask you to invest a bit back.

I can kind of understand why they don’t want users buying a lifetime pass. It means they will not get any further funding from that person. It’s worth the tradeoff when you are smaller and need funding, but kind of a hinderance once you are more established.

Either way, I’m glad I purchased the lifetime pass when it was much cheaper years ago.

ChimeraOS is immutable and still alive. Bazzite with gaming mode ended up taking a lot of users from them(myself included).

For VanillaOS you could modify the image used just like Bazzite to get the packages and configuration that you want. I’m just not sure if there is enough of a desire to have something Debian based compared to what is offered by Bazzite.
