  • It’s possible to reduce the privacy issues by using APIs with a local frontend. Given that APIs usually cater to companies instead of end consumers they actually have simple opt-outs for information logging.

    Requires a bit of know-how, and you’ll be paying for your llm per use (not that bad actually, I’ve personally averaged <10$/yr in api costs) but at least you get to have all your personal issues on your local device instead.

    For a chatGPT-like experience you probably want the ooga booga web generation ui but there’s others too.



  • Honestly from the point where

    Walter was offered to have his entire treatment paid for and turned it down in favour of selling drugs…

    …he lost all my sympathy. I was increasingly curious about how things were going to go wrong for him. More fascinating train wreck, less investment in him personally.




  • where they are stuck picking up the tab for people who never contributed to the local economy and are now draining it of resources

    Pensions in the EU are entirely different from how it works in the US. I don’t know how it is there, but here it is the nation you worked in that coughs up the pension money. Additionally, from what I’ve heard from retirees who did move to Spain, they have to pay income tax on their pensions to the Spanish government which means that these people would actually be contributing to the state coffers similarly to someone who was working. So, in other words you have money coming in from abroad, being contributed in taxes and spent on goods & services locally, boosting the economy.

    Besides, the people who can afford to move abroad for retirement usually are the wealthier sort, so not the burden you make it out to be.


  • Had a quick look at their statements. The IRGC claimed to target “IDF C4I, along with a military intelligence facility located in the Gav-Yam Technology Park”.

    The edge of the technology center area is 1.2km from the location of the missile strike, which seems to have been the main hospital building of the medical center. Whilst I don’t know where in the tech center area the “intended” target is, this puts the hospital area as a whole at a distance of 900m-1.5km. This is within the CEP (circular error probable) for some of Iran’s ballistic missiles, but at least from a cursory search they appear to have armaments with enough accuracy to not risk hitting the hospital when aiming at their supposed target and sufficient range to hit Israel.
