Zed is totally open source, and the AI “features” are optional. When you set it up - at least when I did - it’s one checkbox to disable. I don’t remember about the telemetry you will have to have a look, I’m usually ok with that myself.
I came from VSCode and haven’t found anything I miss. I especially don’t miss the poor performance of VSCode, Zed is extremely lightweight!
That information about text editors is out of date - we now have Zed. Just ignore the “AI integration” bs, it’s entirely optional
It’s not apartheid - it’s much worse
Our lighting setup (rented accommodation) is a hodge-podge of mixed fittings, including fluorescent tubes and halogen. All of the actual screw (and Edison) fittings have led bulbs in though.
Part of me wishes for the good old days of cheap incandescent bulbs though. The decent LED bulbs are still 10x the price we used to pay for incandescent, so we buy “cheap” ones (4x the price) which don’t last any longer than the old tech. Of course you can’t get incandescent bulbs anymore…
From an Android developer perspective, this is a big PIA. Most of my apps are open source and distributed outside of the Play Store, to ordinary users who are savvy and motivated enough to check “Unknown sources” but wouldn’t know what developer mode or ADB is, never mind a custom rom.
I looked at the requirements, I will have to register EVERY app with Google if I want anyone to be able to install it apart from myself. It’s just crazy but it’s that or give up.
I like the stats - 14 million ads and malicious web requests blocked today!
I tried that (tailscale -> pi-hole) but experienced terrible lag and drop-outs while surfing on mobile, probably due to the raspberry pi being overloaded or more likely my son playing Fortnite and saturating the connection
As someone who rides a unicycle professionally: what type of unicycle? Is the company specifying a particular brand because I only ride Nimbus.
Yes, CloudFlare blocks agents completely if they ignore it’s restrictions. The key is scale - CloudFlare has a birds eye view of traffic patterns across millions of sites and can do statistical analysis to determine who is a bot.
I hate the necessity but it works
3 that I’m actually using, on my “Home Server” (Raspberry Pi).
One day I will be migrating the work stuff on VPS over to Docker, and then we’ll see who has the most!
Love Ed Zitrons podcast, been listening for a while now. Nobody does a rant like him - I may totally disagree with him about the usefulness of AI but for sheer entertainment it has me hooked
That old huh? Amazing!
Professional magician here - when I do my show for kids I always get them to shout out “Boom!” and explain that it’s like a special effect in the movies.
Whenever I say I’m going to teach my favourite magic word, some kid always chimes in with “Abracadabra”. I think it’s from Vaudeville - some magician made it up and everyone copied them ever since.
I run pi-hole in docker in the background of our libreelec (Kodi) home entertainment system and it works great. It’s a MUST if you have kids, my son has more freedom to use the internet since I know he is mostly covered by extensive block lists. Using raspberry pi 400, we watch Netflix, play Nintendo games, watch YouTube and have a family hard drive for shared photos and files.
I have a paranoid fear that some day I will be required to write an ampersand…
I have two accounts that went dark. The main mastodon website with the list of all instances really needs to filter by popularity and longevity so people can make an informed choice!
Or 3 branches…
I prefer to just delete the whole .git and start a new repository with the new version. We are pivoting the project, new name and new repo
I’m guessing not - Google probably wants the data for itself.
Embedded programmer here: C/C++ is not going away any time soon. Rust just isn’t ready yet (on microcontrollers anyway)
