krzs9··on Nobody Is Saying Why OpenAI and Anthropic Had Outages
At my company (not massive but not tiny either - I think its about 8000 global employees) we get a choice between pretty much all available Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, XAI models.

Using an agent-agnostic harness like Pi switching is trivial - I run into occasional disconnects and slowdown and switch quite easily.

krzs9··on How to debloat your Xiaomi 15 Ultra without root access
Rather rude tone to take for a reasonable question.

You do note in the article that you are locking at Android 16 - so the cost of following this guide is no security updates thereafter? That is a rather high cost (IMO immediate disqualifier), it is reasonable to discuss it and I don't see why you think it appropriate to rudely dismiss it.

Its great that you use the phone only for the camera. But you decided to post this as a guide and people who use their phones as a general-purpose device might be interested in discussing it too. The specificity of your particular use-case is nowhere visible in the article.

krzs9··on Does the Sumerian King List Align with Paleoclimate Events?
I can certainly recommend :

1. The Literature of Ancient Sumer - Jeremy Black. It is a quite substantial anthology, has myths, hymns, laments, royal praise poetry, proverbs, literary debates, etc.

2. Myths from Mesopotamia - Stephanie Dalley. I bought this for Gilgamesh, loved the rest of it too. One of my most treasured books.

3. Weavers, Scribes, and Kings - Amanda Podany. Not Sumerian literature, but my favorite comprehensive history book covering all of Mesopotamian history. I mention this particularly because all the literature we do have came to us through scribes, and this book gets into whatever we can know about their internal lives really well. Reading about their tutoring and how they learnt to write, what we can deduce about how their lessons were structured - fascinating stuff.

For such an ancient civilization, it is astounding how much we do have and how closely we can meet them.
