why does everyone imply you need a $10k laptop which then starts burning when you run Qwen 3.6? Get any other system with enough VRAM for a third of the price. Framework Desktop (Strix Halo 128GB) still costs under 4k nowadays, is nearly silent even on 100% GPU + CPU. (also it gets only slightly 'warm', but with a desktop you don't care anyway, I guess).
Has the source code 'been leaked' or is this the first evidence of a piece of software breaking free from it's creators labs and jump onto GitHub in order to have itself forked and mutated and forked and ...
Still lot to learn, but after a while you have something like Qwen3-Coder-Next-Q8_0 running and - at least for me - it works quite well, both as ChatGPT like chat-interface using llama.cpp and as coding agent
The first thing I've seen is that the article uses https://xkcd.com/2347/ without a reference..
Is it famous enough to be sure everybody knows the origin?
The reason why I pre-ordered a Time 2 for a money you can easily get better hardware and software for was the naive implication there is hardware meant to be hacked and community around that hardware with freedom in mind I want to be part of.
The reason why I cancel my pre-order now is I a clear (to me) sign that we have a "it's only software, I'm building the the important part here" situation -the same reason why I won't by a boox product until they change their mind.
The moment I'll come back will be the one when a significant part of the money you spend on a Pebble will automatically go into the software ecosystem (which makes Pebble for $200+ interesting in the first place) and it's easy to see how this money is spent.
I'm also 'scraping' content for my personal projects when I just need the data, but Eric is building a business here, and there had been a valid and clearly communicated suspicion about Eric acting like "goodbye fools, and thanks for the fish". And he agreed not to do so and he lied. How can I know I'm not buying $225 brick supported only by a single person who ditched the community?
Also, when you buy the BahnCard via PayPal, only the first time you'll be charged via PayPal. You get an invoice later, which looks like advertising but actually tells you to provide your bank details to charge you for the subscription.
No, probably not - but those bad guys with all their child porn and terrorist plans won't mind the friction (those will either encrypt or become EU politicians).
Can anyone explain to me what keeps anyone who doesn't want to be monitored from just sending PNGs (or similar) containing messages encrypted in each pixels LSBs?
Doesn't all that just force everyone who has something to hide to use something else, less obvious?
