"So the interesting question isn't whether personal hardware is coming. It's who gets to write the software that runs on it."

It's not that I don't like your point of view. It's that I can't stand AI slop.

I would avoid sentences of the form "It's not A. It's B." It reads very LLM-like.

I'd like to gently push back because this is a misconception that is worth untangling. It's not that no one is talking about it. It's that there's a genuine silence about the subject.

Open youtube through a browser with uBlock origin, with this line in the filter:

m.youtube.com##.rich-section-content

This blocks the shorts bar. I also block the other algorithmic surfaces and have only the search bar available.

I have been using Emacs+git on termux on an Android phone for more than 5 years.

I don't even use a third party software-keyboard, I just use termux's special key bar. To set it up, add the following to ~/.termux/termux.properties

  extra-keys = [['TAB','CTRL','ALT','ESC','HOME','END','LEFT','UP','DOWN','RIGHT']]

This has been enough for using org mode in everyday life tasks, and I don't need to keep swapping keyboards.

Brian Lopes - Mastering Mountain Bike Skills. Taught me that the sound of my tires rolling on gravel is more rewarding than a place in the podium.

Patrick King - The Art of Witty Banter. Taught me how to be entertaining among non-engineers.
