To be fair to OP, that follow-up doesn't appear to be mentioned anywhere in the discussion on #310226, either. They probably should have left a note about that change before locking the thread.
To be honest, I didn't see the follow up. It just incensed me enough that they would do that to begin with.
Right up there with Zed being pretty open that they siphon your code through their API surface and have a "Just Trust Us Bro" data retention policy, along with no way to turn the collaboration features off.
At least that’s what they’re telling you. It’s a ”trust me bro” scenario.
I’d rather use the phone home version (deepseeks own endpoint). The benefit is that I’m fairly certain that they actually host the model I’m paying for.
If you're not Chinese, and you start a company outside of China, and your whole pitch is "We run open weights and we have nothing to do with China", 1) why would send data to China?? 2) why would you risk your business to do a thing that makes no sense?
A fly by night operation created primarily for the purpose of collecting training data and corporate espionage will make whatever claims they think will get them the right traffic.
Well, the context was running the models via open router, not hosting 800B> models yourself. Of course, if given the option I believe most people would pick ”don’t share sensitive data”.
What I’m trying to say is that EVERYONE uses your data, even the sensitive type. So you might aswell use an endpoint that does what it says and treat EVERY endpoint whether that’s OpenAI or anthropic as if it’s collecting all of your data.
Some providers are based in the US or EU and would face legal repercussions for lying about what they do with your data. It's a bit more than "trust me bro". Off the top of my head, you can use Fireworks, for example, which is based in California and would face the same consequences for lying about their data policy as OpenAI or Anthropic would.
What, because they broke the law in one way, they'd break the law in every way? That's not how business works. The way business works is, I steal from other people to make a product, but then I don't steal from my customers, because if they find out, then I no longer have any customers. (Plus all their customers would sue them, which would both legally and financially tank them)
Another vote on niri being just great software. While itss idea (scrolling tiling windows manager) is novel, the software in itself is very polished with a very mature API that doesn't change at every version (looking at you hyprland).
The hyprland developer is extremely talented, for his age, but still the mistakes of youth are very apparent: rash decisions, changing for change sake, my way or the highway, etc.
If he sticks with the project until he grows out of the impulsive phase, hyprland will be in a much better place.
Thanks Dylan for all your work over the years. It has been very influential from Neofetch, Wal/Pywal, KISS Linux, to your own Bible, the Pure Bash one!
Wishing you all the best for the future, may the Greek weather keep you happy!
I use LineageOS on all my devices (it's actually my main criteria when buying a phone) to mainly install apps from F-Droid without relying on the Google Play Store.
It has the same familiar look and feel on all devices and by experience is way snappier than the original ROM.
Curve Pay is a viable option last I checked. I am unaware of any payment options on Amex UK app. Amex expects you to link your card with Google Wallet.
>What does not work? An LG app to control an air conditioner.
I use GrapheneOS. Thankfully I've had few things not work. Google Pay being one of them, the other is the garage door (Liftmaster)[1].
I genuinely find it disgusting. Thankfully I rent the apartment (and attached garage) so I've never given them any money. At the end of the day there's literally zero justification for a garage door opening app to brick itself if it's run on a unapproved platform. The official[2] statement states:
"Our customers rely on us to make access simple without sacrificing quality and reliability. Unauthorized app integrations, stemming from only 0.2% of myQ users, previously accounted for more than half of the traffic to and from the myQ system, and at times constituted a substantial DDOS event that consumed high quantities of resources."
AKA "we are incapable of implementing a basic ratelimit. faulty third-party clients made our AWS bill go up a bit so we are going to go on an irrational crusade against third-party integrations of any kind and expend more resources doing this than would be spent by giving users a simple API to use"
Banking apps that do not require Google Play services, such as Bank of America, run just fine. Besides, you can always open a browser and use the web version. Losing banking apps and "tap to pay" is a small price to pay for avoiding having your data constantly siphoned by Google.
Yeah this is abandonware, idk why it's being posted and upvoted now.
Something similar to real mobile/desktop convergence is still technically possible today with Phosh on PostMarketOS (or Mobian, Mobile NixOS or Arch ARM) and a compatible device with USB-C video out (like the PinePhone).
The hardware is basically the same as self-hosted NAS, the motherboard could even be of a lower quality. The software though is closed source and most consumer NAS only get support for 4-5 years which is outrageous.
The edge Anthropic has on others lies on its models performance. CLI tooling (and obviously pricing) is definitely not better than others.
