I read that they would also make a “beeline” for the best food option, which if it’s that, means they wouldn’t be pollinating flowers, just feeding on the new food. So probably better as a tool for beekeepers, so they can still go pollinate flowers

Ublock origin has been working for YouTube for me, they’ve had some rough patches where YouTube updated and then they had to update, but it’s been smooth for the past couple years.

I went with quantized Gemma

Well, was it quantized in a way that iphone 16 supports?

Often it’s the quantization where things break down, and the hardware needs to support the quantization, can’t run FP16 on int8 hardware… And sometimes the act of quantization can cause problems too.

And yeah, LLMs are likely going to be very hit or miss anyway.

Store Wars was great when it was the new thing.

Grats on the 10k stars!

Unfortunately I’m also in the camp of “when would I need this” but maybe I’ll try to set it up anyways/just in case. I never need to do anything to pdfs that Firefox can’t do…

We believe the ultimate moral defense of markets is that they divert people who otherwise would raise armies and start religions into peacefully productive pursuits.

Um. Hmm. Pretty sure that didn’t work and those in politics are raising armies and not doing peaceful pursuits…

Also a lot of the stuff about willing buyer and seller assumes that the buyer has options, I don’t think from the perspective of real people that everyone has that many options, so they end up with loans or other things which are not good, just to be able to afford vehicles to get to work or a place to live.

So a lot if this seems written by a rich person who has always been able to buy everything they needed and more, not someone who is having to go take loans or go into debt just to be able to get to work.

I’ve not found them useful yet for more than basic things. I tried Ollama, it let’s you run locally, has simple setup, stays out of the way.

Only “up to one third can be fixed by avoiding inflammation”

So, he’s going to give almost the same advice as everyone else and not even help the other ~66%, and that’s “up to” so it could actually only fix less than that, he didn’t give a lower bound, could be less than 1%.

Blogging, Newsletter & Co.: Well, as you can see, I’m writing on Substack. There are no alternatives except to host it entirely yourself, but that doesn’t make sense to me right now.

Let me introduce you to bear blog: bearblog.dev

I don’t yet use it, but I read a few of the blogs. Very RSS feed reader friendly and it’s simple without excess crap.

Thanks for the info! Tbh I never looked into extensions, honestly like 90% of the point was to get the hundreds of photos off my phone and into somewhere else.

But I’ll have to look into that.

Honestly syncthing was very attractive at first, and then I went for next cloud because it looked to me more complete and more full. I’m trying to find something my wife could possibly also use, so next cloud having online editing with collabora was nice to try to have it feel like Google docs, but since I’m migrating away from that then maybe sync thing is worth a try too.
