Ah, I spend an embarrassing amount of time each day just keeping up on the current events. I like to cover the same things from different sources to try to understand perspectives. A hypothetical AI (this doesn't exist) that could summarize news reliably and combine facts from multiple sources would be a huge time saver for me.

Well, it says they went live last year based on technologies that have been redesigned since 2023. I'm not really sure what that means. If I was looking for independence from the United States I'd probably have gone with Mojeek. As I said before, I'm far from an expert on these matters. It just seems weird for a Digital Sovereignty movement trying to escape USian tech to migrate to a service that's still 50% Microsoft with a European veneer. I don't know if there's a better choice.

I used to have that on 5.25" disks!

Some back of the napkin says it's about $145 for 15 gallons, which is about $9.66 a gallon, which is massively expensive. Pretty much 2x more than it is where I live. My wife and I have been kicking around an EV, but if we were paying that much for gas we'd have one already. We're looking to put solar on our roof this summer, which is going to cost us a pretty penny. If we weren't doing that, we'd be buying an EV right now.

Um, if there's a human alive that can be replaced by AI without anyone noticing, it's probably him.

This feels like it might be purely American..

Yep. It's practically my OS. If I have #Vivaldi and a terminal, I'm pretty much set.

Yea, it's still not in a full, production ready version with Firefox so I'm giving them a lot of slack. If it still works like it does now when it's billed as being fully ready, I'll be disappointed.

My thought is their biggest competitor in the field is Google. Google has access to more data than pretty much any other company. These companies NEED data to train their models. If OpenAI hopes to compete with Google, they need a source of more data. They can't do their own smartphone OS. Apple and Google have that market nailed down. Even Microsoft couldn't compete. They've got to find another vector for acquiring more data. This is their shot. Of course, I absolutely could be wrong.

I just don't get the point of this hypothetical device.
"It’s rumored to be screen-free and “roughly the size of a smartphone."
Knowing Ive, this is going to be a black or aluminum rectangle. So far, the only reason I can fathom for the push to be "screen-free" is to separate it from a smartphone, but from the sounds of things a smartphone would be better suited to this task. Seriously? A device roughly the size of a smartphone with no screen. Why? Seriously. Why?

I saw this yesterday. I'm wondering how hard it would be to pair the Mini Lite with a @npub1hn2…kl6z back end and let #HomeAssistant use it for sensors and as a satellite for voice commands. The article says they're "fully programmable in Python", so it FEELS like that should be a possibility, but I don't have the skill set that would be required to do that. I might buy one if I thought I could use one that way.

In my family, I'm considered "imaginative", but I'm not sure that says much. I'm happy to experiment, but I don't tend to mix food groups much, especially fruit with non-fruit food groups. My parents were pretty meat and potatoes (literally), and my mom even described my dad as a "culinary coward", a term I'm not sure he appreciated. Compared to them, I'm wild and crazy. Compared to fruit salad on a burger though, I'm pretty generic.

This isn't an official statement or anything, just some insight into where I am right now. Sorry, it's much longer than it needs to be, but I got off on a tangent and I don't want to rewrite it.

I was realizing this morning it's been a long time since I've done a #ScreenshotSunday. Usually when I do it's of a retro shot of my desktop from years and years ago, so today I thought I'd take a break from digging through the archives and post today's desktop.
Yes, I know it's Monday.
