I didn't use google's image search for a long time so I don't know that. But I think kagi pays to use google's data as one of their source. So it's possible the image search results are the same. However the different order/ranking is what separated kagi and google.

Try jmp.chat, you can use an XMPP client to receive phone calls and sms.

I use the following services:

- phone number: jmp.chat and a textnow number as backup

- email: fastmail

- search: kagi

- map: apple map

try combining a type c male to USB female adapter and a USB A to type c cable together to get a working type c to type c cable

I use a docker image as my whole development environment and the experience is similar. I can do whatever I want inside the container, and all will gone after I restart it. For the changes I like it, I edit the dockerfile and build a new image. When I get a new machine, I just install docker and pull the image and start coding.

Not the same but there's a netlabel called 20kbps[0]. Most of their albums are mp3s around 10-20 MB in total.

Lockfile does not work perfectly for me because it does not lock python version. Using a lock file with different python version or even same version but different OS may fail.

I'd like to add that most of these text only talking about inference part. This book (I also purchased the draft version) has training and finetuning in the TOC. I assume it will include materials about how to do training and finetuning from scratch.

It's just a fucking book. Don't push your shits like js or SPA or d3 or webgpu to a fucking book. I just want to read it like a dead tree book.

You can buy DRM-free music from iTunes store or bandcamp. There's no excuse to pirate music with a valid way to purchase.

For ebook the situation is worse but for many technical books there's a way to purchase a DRM version.

Movie/TV series is unique in a way that there's no option to buy a DRM-free version.

If you are not using kitty, some programs like chafa can convert image formats into ascii color code + unicode characters. It's very handy in many cases.

For me the use cases of offpunk (or any cli/tui program) are mainly 2 things:

1. keep my computer environment on a remote VPS. So I have an always-on machine with high-speed internet access. I read books, visit websites and write codes on the same machine. These are mainly text works so a mosh connection is enough. Occasionally when I want to view some images, I use chafa to preview the images. Because the machine is always on, syncing and backup is eaiser to do.

2. But sometimes either you are offline or the VPS is offline. In this situation I will switch to a raspberry pi zero (packed inside a mint tin). The computation resource is limited so do everything in cli/tui will make things faster.

I use w3m in terminal, better pair with emacs via emacs-w3m so you can copy from web page and paste to emacs buffer when do codings

I love my zero 2w as a development machine. For web browsing I try to use w3m when possible. In headless model (using mosh to access), I can even disable 2 cpu cores with acceptable performance.

"Each part upgradable and replaceable" -> super agree this point. You can clone microsd easily. So if microsd die, you swap the microsd. And if the board die, you just insert the microsd to another zero 2w and everything comes back the same as before. It's just like a "physical" vps.

can you use mosh instead of ssh?

I even built earlier zig compiler on zero1 because zig has no official 32bit arm release. I don't recall any significant wifi dropout with mosh.

Another work around is connect zero to a usb port of your computer/ipad/iphone and enable usb gadget on zero. Then you have a ethernet connect between zero and host that is more reliable than wifi?

I'm surprised that this comment gets slightly more upvotes. I want to clarify one thing: I'm not saying apple is the good guy. Apple and google are 2 monster companies. As a user I want them to fight. That's the only way we can reduce the harm done by these monster companies.

However web developers go one side: the google side. Reason? They can do half the work and get twice the money. What a gain! They sell the web to google for their dirty money.

small enterprise companies/upstarts can design their apps more like the traditional dynamic web site. For 95% use case that's good enough. And for the rest 5% case that requires a heavy web "app", you will find out that it's usually not what a small company can do. It's more likely uber or starbuck or facebook or google or microsoft.

Apple delaying the progress of "web" (or just another kind of app) is good for users. Because user don't need another OS between the host os and their apps.

Web developers are so self-centered. You are developers, not users, don't speak like you are doing good things for users. You are just doing things for yourselves so you can extract money/data from your users.

Most web developers nowadays are just enemy of web users.

My strategy of fighting RSI is mapping modifier keys so that you can press them using your thumbs and outer part of your palms.

Like I said in another thread, I use a rpi zero2 as the backup of a VPS so I can program on it with my iPad even no internet is available. The reasons I use it is that:

1. You can configure the zero2 so that when it is connected to the iPad with a usb cable, 2 machine will construct an ethernet over usb and you can mosh from iPad to zero2 without any external network. zero2 also get both the data and power from a single usb cable

2. zero2 is cheap to replace. Micro sd card is cheap and easy to be cloned. You don't worry about software or hardware loss.

3. zero2 is actually quite usable in headless/ssh mode. I used to do the same thing on zero1 and it's a little bit sluggish.

I actually have my entire setup stored in a mint tin box.

things micro pcs cannot do:

- rpi has GPIO pins

- many rpi boards' max power consumption is around the idling power consumption of a pc, rpi zero 2 can run off a standard usb A port of a laptop

- rpi zero 1/2, rpi 3A and rpi 4 has usb gadget mode which means it can be plugged to a notebook and two machines will connect over usb ethernet. That is especially helpful for debugging headless machines when in a hotel room (no wifi under your control, no ethernet cable).

- yes microsd is slow, but it's also cheap and easy to swap. That means you can: 1. if a board is broken then take out the card and insert it into another board. It will take you 2 minutes max and then everything will be exactly the same. 2. clone your entire microsd card as backup 3. you can swap different OS by swapping microsd. No need to partition your harddisk.

I do my development works on my iPad connecting to a remote VPS. And I always has a rpi zero 2 as my backup when I have no internet connection. You just connect ipad to zero2 using a usb-c to usb-c cable with a usb-c to micro usb adapter, then you can mosh from ipad to zero2 and keep programming. How wonderful!

It used to be. But not anymore. Web browser + js are too bloat for any serious documentation usage.

It think this should still work for Kobo ebook?

Sometimes I daydream about getting a fuck-it amount of money.

During this thought process I always make a plan of what open source software project I should donate, and debian is always one of the first several candidates.

Now I just need the money! (meanwhile I donate to debian anyway)

This actually happens in China and every phone manufactures has their own app store. It's a shitshow

Lesser of two evils principle maybe? I defend apple in this one appstore topic not because I think apple is good, but just better than google and facebook.

Of course the longterm solution is to get better legalization on privacy protection etc. But before that, I really prefer apple as a proxy between me and google/facebook/etc.

big corps (including apple itself) are powerful enough to force you to do everything if they really want.
