I agree, history always repeats itself. But perhaps the timing is different, it could be 20 years, 10 years, or 50 years who knows

Fun fact, the aliens didn't build the first pyramids. It was in fact the work of extra terrestrial beings

Lol, well obviously it would be cheaper to host an LLM that is smaller. Imagine the cost of hosting o1

Why don't you just use real debrid or something and stream the torrents remotely?

I think the single biggest issue I have with Linux is package management. Maybe this is purely distribution dependent, but for example in Ubuntu most of the packages are way outdated, not even on the latest stable version. Then I either have to:

  1. Build from source which means I gotta also install all dependencies and pray that the thing builds
  2. Add some rando PPA which I have no idea if I should trust
  3. Use "flatpaks" or "appimages"

None of those options are appealing. And along with these multiple options I end up having multiple versions of things installed in different locations in different ways and also my PATH ends up a big mess, I think I'm just doing something very wrong.

This is just stupid. The point is having options. It's not like having a 3.5mm jack stopped you from having wireless buds. What do you mean “prefer wired over wireless” when everyone had the choice of both since fucking forever

Why switch if you don't need to?

These things are unreliable, I had 3 seagate HDDs in a row fail on me. Never had an issue with SSDs and never looked back.

Yeah I don't understand why they don't just use SDL3 to make their own engine.

Nice, I was looking for something like this a few years ago on another project, at the time I settled for DBeaver, but this looks like it might be better fit for the job.

You can, but I like using an app, because for example I can use pip with grayjay (watch video while doing something else), I'm not sure if that is possible with firefox + ublock
