As a resident of the UK, the international Eyes coallitions are unfortunately unavoidable for me, so that is mostly moot.

But I agree with everything else, especially the AI API, I would consider allowing a local open-source and open-weight SLM access to my inbox for summarisations / weekly digests, among various other ideas.

Been using Fastmail for a couple years now, previously bouced between Proton and Tuta.

I cannot fault Fastmail, yes, like the name suggests, it is fast (sending is almost instant and new email comes through quickly too), but their features for inbox sorting, rules, and custom domains is incredble.

I have my own domain name that I wildcard in Fastmail, which means I can enter whateverthefuckIwant@domain.com and it’ll be delivered.

Then I have several rules set-up to autotag depending on the address the email is going to.

Their interface is slick, easy to use, not too cramped and not too spacious, lovely contrast, just pleasant to be in.

All of that, along with a calendar with easy CalDAV support, notes in Markdown, and generous cloud storage which I mainly use for file transfer between my devices make the £5.40 I spend on it monthly an absolute steal.

I hate, with a burning passion, the term “biological sex”.

We have frankly, no fucking clue how our genetics and gender are intertwined.

We used to think it was “just chromosomes”, but then we discovered “biological men” with double-X, or double-X and a Y, or vice-versa.

Or intersex individuals.

Then, we also got to consider that, say, a “biological woman” can transition to a “transgender man”, which renders no change to their genes, just hormone levels, and they see physical development, voice deepening, hair growth, etc, just like a “biological man”, or vice-versa.

In conclusion, “biological sex” is just another gross simplification created by people who’s minds are so pathetic they can’t comprehend reality and so choose to live by mantra founded in disproven pseudo-sciences, religion, and other excuses to avoid critical thinking, and then put themselves in positions of power.

You’ve already made this point, and I’ve already given my counterpoint.

Looks like you’re the one stuck in a boot loop.

Bub.

Nope. This issue has been well reported, just one search about recent Bitwarden controversy and you’ll find dozens of articles, this was just the first one I found.

I’ve already made my mind up, just trying to show you that this is how it starts.

Eh, even if it was a “mistake” I want to know why they’re even tinkering with it in the first place.

Just a weird vibe, I’ll be moving off it when I get some time.

Stay away from BitWarden.

Bitwarden scrubs ‘Always free’ and ‘Inclusion’ values from its website as longtime execs step down.

It’s great actually!

Before, I would make my coffee before turning on my computer, now I can streamline this as with Windows my computer isn’t ready until my coffee is too, saving me valuable minutes.

And right when I’m in the middle of my work, I’ll get exciting pop-ups about the new AI capabilities coming to Office 365, far beyond what LibreOffice could ever dream of. I didn’t even ask for the adverts, they just feed me new content all the time!

Most of my work now involves prompting Copilot and waiting for it’s response, downloading Windows Updates, or waiting for my Google Chrome with it’s own bundled 4GB AI model to install. With that much waiting, I’ve increased my coffee consumption 5x so far this week, hit my move goal 3x over every day (I go for a short 20 mile hike while the Updates download), and generated some absolutely hilarious images with ChatGPT and my friends!

And this is it too, I feel safe knowing that if needs be, the proper authorities and Microsoft can access my device’a data to help catch terrorists and protect the children.

Besides, what have I got to hide anyway?

This came exactly when I needed it, thank you, recently my computer has been too fast for my liking, and I felt like I controlled something I owned (which is just too much responsibility for me right now), and all of that was solved when I replaced my OS with Windows. Glory to Microsoft, forced updates, Copilot, and outdated code!

Your political landscape is still enough of a joke that this sorry excuse for a human being can garner enough public prevelance to be meaningful in an election.

And I think that’s because everyone is very well written and has a full profile rather than being one-or-two dimensional good/evil.

Not at all, it’s a Markdown file, plaintext. You just instruct your agent to assimilate that file into it’s context.

Trust me my code aint worthy of being “art”.

If yours is, I totally get where you’re coming from, AI-generated code is pretty bad right now, albeit it does often work.

The way I often do things is have an agent create a rough first implementation according to my own architecture, so I have done all that high-level thinking that it currently struggles with; then I have a dedicated improvement agent come and clear that up substantially, and then I review whatever is left.

Which, yeah, isn’t great, but I stand with my intsance’s viewpoint on generative AI:

In other words, we’re not against Generative AI as a technology but we are against Generative AI as promoted by capitalism and corporate interests. To put this into perspective, it’s like saying: We’re not against using camera equipment, but we’re against the surveillance industry.

Just a lot homonculi people see AI and start screaming “AI slop” from the hilltops.

Grow up.

I appreciate the attention to detail for not putting the degrees symbol on the Kelvin values, that often gets overlooked.

Yeah, sure, let’s try actually storing more than… hmm… I’ll be generous and say 16GB of data and see what happens 0-0

It is rather trivial to flash the firmware on the USB to have it report as whatever capacity to the OS.
