You can actually host your own data now. There are still centralized parts, but they have been getting progressively fewer. ATproto is fundamentally a sane way to do stuff. Choosing to grow the network and the tech stack at the same time is an interesting decision, but it seems to be working.

Anyway, what keeps me on blue sky is not the tech, it’s the fact that it’s a thoroughly nice place to hang out. The nuclear block works wonders against jerks, and the focus on accessibility is very very nice.

Maybe so. But keep in mind that part of being a good officer is making sure you are not put in a position where you have to issue orders your men are not going to follow.

Do you feel lucky?

I feel your frustration man. There’s exactly one manufacturer that gets this mostly right, but it’s famously not FOSS and not super compatible/customizable.

I didn’t say it was a manufactured conspiracy. I said it was a manufactured controversy.

Yes, there is an inherent tension. Most voters have resolved this months ago.

Manufactured controversy. Everyone knows what’s up and has made up their mind months ago. One way or the other.

Why do all windows/Linux laptops have crappy power management?

This should not be your problem. The manufacturer should have handled this for you.

A bit, but not meaningfully so. And he’s off E s as far as I know.

The YouTube video is a thing of beauty though.

“Apolitical” is a well known euphemism for “reactionary”, so yeah I guess.

Intel is just a stock market listed disappointment at this point.

“Best CPU for LLM” is like “best city bus for racetrack driving”.

It’s great that it’s better than the other one, but there are better options out there than either of them.
