alexstore06··on Why is the iOS keyboard getting worse every year?
Having lag trouble? Mine had been getting worse and worse, so today I finally reset my phone. No issues at all now. (issues included delays in opening messages, delays in characters appearing in the text box after attempting to type on the keyboard, and delays in responding after the send button was pressed)

If autocorrect is being trouble, you can always reset your autocorrect dictionary - it seems to get into bad habits sometimes.

alexstore06··on My rude-ass car
Very entertaining.

Many features can be disabled, and most allow you to do things the old way (e.g., closing the trunk manually), but some features either block you from doing things any other way or making it extremely difficult to do the old way, for example minivans with power doors make make it very difficult to open a door manually and refuse to open when the vehicle is not in park.

Old cars have their own drawbacks, but at least they're not bossy.

alexstore06··on Bitcoin miners running up Texans' electricity bills
I haven't been following crypto for a while, but I thought that there weren't really any cryptocurrencies that were profitable to mine anymore. Has something changed, or did I miss something?
alexstore06··on When allocators are hoarding your precious memory (2021)
My first guess for that particular case is that PROD and DEV are often either parts of hostnames for those particular machines or are referring to hostnames, which are often written in all caps.

How does this compare to GUIs like llamero (https://github.com/mpociot/llamero) and gpt4all (https://gpt4all.io/index.html)?
