In general I agree, but recycling old power hungry gear may be better for the environment in the long term.

Cable ISPs such as Spectrum sell capacity on their customers routers for such situations, including ‘smart’ appliances.

I meant catch me crossing and take photos, scans, etc.

They snap me crossing the street almost daily, nothing I can do about since sometimes they take me by surprise.

systemd-oomd works reasonably well and there is source code. Perhaps claude can help add more detailed policy support to it.

Just found this comment:

They look dead to me, not flagged. Most seem to be about tor or onion.

Yes, believe they can down weight certain topics by keywords, let’s hope they do. This doesn’t stop the posts but just flushes them more quickly.

Reading this on my 6s, and it’s still great.

I recently tried to hook up a few games and was sadly surprised they make it hard to work on a LAN, even old FOSS games push you towards internet play.

They have permission from the provider, why they are able to log in.

Looks like it has USB3 unlike the Fairphone. How does the SOC/Camera compare?

That's interesting, is it any farther ahead of the others?

My TDKs from ’96 are still fine.

For stuck mechanical disks I remember a modest bump to the side with a screwdriver handle was sometimes enough to get it going.

Would like to hear more about the longevity of recordable blurays.

Why are the comments below flagged/dead?

Doing the “right thing” has come with inconvenience since time immemorial. It takes a strong personality to persevere.

Doesn’t matter how many times it happens, it is still rude and creepy.

They haven’t allowed a recession to happen since ~2009 when they massively inflated their way out of the worst of the last one. Learned to have the cake and eat it too.

The only problem is after a few rounds of this the currency becomes worthless, and we’re well on our way. Inflation is a major component of those numbers rising.

Maybe something used to keep you running for a few more years.

It's not surprising marketing for a large corporation leans toward the bland. This is not the scrappy Apple from the turn of the century.

I thought the discussion was about "frontier labs" in the cloud versus open at home.

Others running open models in the cloud is a nice third alternative, but not a solution for those that need frontier models, which I believe continue to need training as well as inference. These are currently heavily subsidized and hardware constrained several years out.

The big providers are losing on average tens of billions a year on these services, so yes prices must go up. Even Moore’s won’t help in the medium-term due to shortages and difficulty/reluctance to vastly increase capacity.

Not sure, as I don't have any wasted screen space, due to the techniques mentioned above. On really bad sites I try reader view first, View/Page Style/No Style (on Firefox) second, and if that doesn't work I close the tab. Pretty rare though.

Learn how to resize windows, multitasking, tiling, etc. I prefer to have one monitor in portrait but understand many don’t have or not able.

If you don't want to be seen as against a thing, don't argue against it repeatedly.

Also your phrasing needs a lot of work. I recommend the Dale Carnegie books on communicating with others.

That hasn’t been enough in almost twenty years. Most things are in the cloud now. Try running OpenSnitch for a demonstration.

There have been numerous examples of malware and spyware in proprietary firmware.

Best to clean house completely, starting with hardware you can trust. And everyone’s purchases compound due to investment.

Yes, you repeatedly tried to refuse training as a possibility. My initial statement was relatively conservative so can’t be easily disproven, but you made many attempts anyway.

Others discounted the exaggerated emergency above so no need to repeat. And we know training worked for centuries up to my example of two years ago. Most people don’t study exactly what they end up doing and learn as they go. The US has a couple hundred million workers. All which point to training being more economically efficient than importing from abroad except in extreme cases.

Your closed-mindset, anti-worker ideas and position continue to harm the economy and wages. Enjoy the fruits of your war on the middle class, having to live in a luxury bunker.

(Oh and gas and steel prices don’t materially affect tech either.)

You pay with your data and self-respect, dealing with a micro-abusive partner. This continues as the purchase cycle repeats, including the tendency to get locked into proprietary software contracts.

These are as good or better than the majority of PCs, though not yet Macs, and improving. But what you gain in freedom, privacy, and informed consent is priceless. Enjoy the golden handcuffs if feature X is more important to you than respect. It may be, who knows.

Wasn't easy to find!
