This doesn't ring true coming from the UK. I like in the US now and the healthcare is not comparable.
The UK health care system is an absolute joke, it's a running joke among a lot of the population. It's not free for a start, the taxes the population have to pay are eye watering. You have to wait weeks, if not months for a specialist, hospital beds are few, there is no accountability for regular fuck ups (I've been on the bad end of a horrific one).
The US system from what I have seen so far is a dream. It's cheaper and the service is top notch.
For context I've moved from the Midlands in the UK to the Research Triangle in North Carolina.
I'm no Trump fan, I have to say that many of these evidences have been debunked and quantifiably false. The raw and hours upon hours of Capitol Hill footage odeant show what the media historically lies about for example.
Have you thought that there was a massive physical infrastructure left behind by the original railroad builders, all compatible with future vehicles? Other companies were able to buy the railroads for low prices and use.
Large Language Models change their power consumption requirements monthly, the hardware required to run them is replaced at a rapid rate too. If it were to stop tomorrow, what would you be left with? Out of date hardware, massively wasted power, and a gigantic hole in your wallet.
You could argue you have the blueprints for LLM building, known solutions, and it could all be rebuilt. The thing is, would you want to rebuild, and invest so much again for arguably little actual, tangible output? There isn't anything you can reuse, like others that came after could reuse the railroads.
I've been using GrapheneOS for years, I can't go back to another OS due to its ease of use, speed, and awesome features baked into my day to day use now.
There is one banking app that stopped working, and you know what? I dont use it now. I'm not about to let a bank dictate how I use my most personal device. I use a desktop if I need to access that info, and it forces me to be deliberate about it too.
Works for me, using Fedora with Plasma. Just fire it up in Brave, and install it as a PWA.
The one thing that bothers me is it can't tell if I'm at my machine when I'm not actively using it. People keep thinging I've bugered off from my desk.
