  • That's my reading as well. Google is not backing down on forcing developers to register with them regardless of Google allowing third party stores. And the magical advanced workflow to install unsigned apps, are they in the room with us?

  • I'll admit my understanding is not deep, but this is how I understand it. Please correct me kindly where I'm wrong.

    To get the speed of processing a prompt, it always will depend on the hardware running it to be super simplified. Whether that is run in data centers that serves thousand of people at the same time and you can get as near instant result, or you can run on just a measly consumer hardware that will take longer to process your prompt and get your result.

    Data centers take a lot of power to run, so it will disrupt the power grid if it's not able to cope with it, and increase your power bill.

    It takes a lot of water to keep cool, and from what I understand produce water that needs to be treated again to make it safe for consumption. Multi billion dollar corporations are well known for following environmental and safety standards.

    It needs a lot of space to build and destroy environments or take away zoning. All those AC will produce a lot of noise pollution

    Contrast with running your local machine. Say take a 5090, running with some kind of high end CPU. All those are still running in the confines of your own home. It can not reach the heights of consumption for the infrastructure to support using AI online by the big corporations.

    If you're using a model that a big corpo trained, they are more than likely using the big power hungry data centers. That's power already spent so going forward I think it's best that IF you want to use AI, better run it locally that's on less power hungry "infra".

  • I mean tbf more people really should participate in posting in those comms. Me included.

    1 or a few person posting daily with zero interaction other than up or down votes will burn out eventually

    At the very least I try to comment on the posts if I can't post myself

  • The damage to train the AI is already done. Running it locally on your own hardware and not supporting the mega data centers is better than using it online with all the surveillance and, well, using the data centers, no?

  • Personally I appreciate the reminder how to suss out AI slop.

    About finishing a bullet point with semicolon, I only encounter that when I started working 10 years ago and got into a big project with a lot of reports and planning documents were written and revised. Seems to line up with Merriam Webster's definition

  • This is an anecdote but I've found that website years before any LLM ever got reported on, circa 2012 maybe? Idk I don't remember. I used it for other shoelacong patterns as well between maybe 2012 - 2017 when I was into sneakers and tried to prettify the laces when I realized I'm not into collecting overpriced shoes made from poor quality materials.

  • May I know why you chose airvpn, other than because of port forwarding?

    A group of friends gotten PIA a year or something ago for 3 years and we shared an account but the performance is mid. They also abandoned updating their Firefox extension so that's another reason I want to change.

    Like you I also want port forwarding so mullvad isn't it

  • A draft of a draft of a plan that I just thought of right now.

    I might just have to carry two phones lol. One is a small cheap phone just for all those pesky financial and governmental apps, and one main phone with graphene.

  • Living with GrapheneOS: FAQ

    Jump

  • I'm glad to have found the banking app compatibility list from her FAQ and see that a few of the big banks in my country is proven working. This gives me hope of jumping ship from my S24U.

    I couldn't have predicted how much shittier Samsung was going to be when I weighed the S24U vs the Pixel 9/10 (the 10 was newer at the time of research thus expensive), as I put a lot of weight on the stylus the S24U have. And Samsung good lock. Had I known that samsung were to

    1. Disallow bootloader unlock
    2. And soon in their android 17 update, close off fastboot functions IIRC (please correct me)

    I would have bit the bullet getting the pixel 9 and installed graphene. I also got spooked off by overheating issues in hot climate countries and network issues. And in hindsight I think I would have been fine with the theoretical lower performance of the tensor chip vs the snapdragon in my S24U.

    I also wished this FAQ existed sooner / researched more properly regarding app compatibility on graphene, so this is wholly my mistake

    Cest la vie

    I'll do better next chance I get.
