You should consider using signal as texting app?

Graphene made me like using a phone. It behave like a computer. Really lovely

I can say the same. Been using LineageOS and GrapheneOS for most of my life. Some things are not super convenient (I generally dont install non-free-software applications and don't have Google Play services enabled), but the rest of the experience is great. No crashes, no bugs, no unexpected behavior. Currently I'm using the Pixel 9 Pro XL.

I can also recommend Gadgetbridge for BLE smartwatch integration.

What about deep sea mining ? What about those poly metallic nodules there ?

We definitively have stuff to fuck up over there. Those ecosystem that do not know noise or light need disruption and market capitalization

Only when we have reached the far reaches of this planet, life as it used to be will cease to exist. Some may argue that it's the natural course of the universe but others would argue that a paradise should be left untouched when found, as it may be the only one.

Why do you think its wild ? I find that easy to understand and grounded in facts.

Was called community

Been using Google since they exists. I stopped without any issue and even thinking too much about it 2 years ago.

This include work.

I use DDG, kagy and the LLM du jour .

Again, no friction. No plan. No transition période. I just changed the default search engine on a whim.

I'm playing with PI as a custom harness ( for Claude code because that what is provided to me )

I will try that ! It make sense and I'm curious to see results, for this or any similar projects mentioned in the thread

allegedly this one is good for PI https://pi.dev/packages/@ff-labs/pi-fff

I have a related question on the domain archive.org

I've noticed that this domain now host content subject to copyright.

As a example : entire season of startrek "voyager" are randomly hosted there in direct download.

Why? Is that not a liability?

Internet Archive is a library. Libraries host copyrighted content. Libraries are good.

Libraries license the content they host. Internet Archive didn't. And nearly got sued out of existence because of it.

They've always had tons of copyrighted material on there. People report it, sometimes they take it down. Sometimes they pick fights and lose.

“We survived,” Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle told Ars. “But it wiped out the Library.” https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/11/the-internet-arc...

Have you look at student generated code ?

I mean, maybe it changed in the last 10 years. But I was a TA grading CS majors for a while. Their C capstone or what have you.

Some were decent but naively coded. Most were pile of shit half hazardly put together so it output what is needed to get passing grade.

But I agree with you in spirit!

I'm running workshops to install linux on laptop or grapheneOS on pixels.

The cool kids are doing it.
