I'd love to hook my development tools into a fully-local LLM. The question is context window and cost. If the context window isn't big enough, it won't be helpful for me. I'm not gonna drop $500 on RPis unless I know it'll be worth the money. I could try getting my employer to pay for it, but I'll probably have a much easier time convincing them to pay for Claude or whatever.

It's sad that Pis are now so overpriced. They used to be fun little tinker boards that were semi-cheap.

That might be because GrapheneOS by default scrambles your GPS location but I think you should be able to turn that off?

throaway920181 · 6 months ago

I used GrapheneOS for about half a year as my primary phone OS. It does not scramble your GPS in any way (it has the same course/fine-grained GPS permissions as regular Android), but it does allow you to block a lot more app permissions. It's more likely that they haven't set the correct permission(s) for that information to bubble through to emergency services.

I would also be surprised if there weren't cell phone system-based fallbacks for emergency services. The carriers have a good idea of where you're at based on the towers you're connected to. There are plenty of situations where GPS doesn't work.

Does Google ever care about petitions? Maybe stop using Google products is a better start.

throaway920181 · 6 months ago

So what phone manufacturer should we go to? Apple, who has always heavily restricted software installation on their devices?

It's frustrating and sad to see the road that Google is headed down with Android and Pixels. The recent AOSP changes were a big red flag, now this.

I've had many Nexus and Pixel devices because I like the freedom that they offer me. I don't use Apple devices because they're so locked down and I can't use the hardware and software in ways that I'd like to use it. Google's about to be added to that shitlist, and there aren't really many alternatives.

I really love a workflow where the host OS is as stock as possible (I just run Debian) and everything else runs in Docker.

A while ago I created Harbormaster[1] a very simple and opinionated single-host container Orchestrator, and run everything on there. It just needs a Compose file, and that's it. Harbormaster takes care of the pulling from git repos/updating, restarting containers, etc, as well as provides a centralised config file for what's running on a machine. It's ideal for me.

I was running k3s locally for all home infra stuff because I too enjoy containers (and some of the things that Kubernetes provides.) Recently I found NixOS and am greatly enjoying that. The container dance gets tiring after a while and having a declarative system is extremely powerful.

Not to mention situations where I specifically don't want security. Like:

> your password must be at least 20 characters long, contain mixed-case letters, digits, five kanji, and at least one byte that isn't a valid UTF-8 codepoint

> but I'm setting up a small VM on my private PC to run a script that scrapes porn

> DID I FUCKING STUTTER

> ok ok I'm sorry calm down

The worst are forms that don't tell you there are complexity requirements until they're submitted.

Have they fixed font rendering yet? cmd.exe looks better on my laptop

I've only used it through RDP on Wayland and it's been fine visually. Downloading it can be a challenge if you don't know where to look (Github, not Microsoft's App Store...)

Ever since Windows gained Terminal and OpenSSH, my usage of Putty has almost entirely ceased except for serial for embedded systems work.

Then I realised Putty ships with a CLI version which I now use in Terminal for accessing serial.

throaway920181 · 6 months ago

I haven't used Putty since I stopped using Windows for anything serious (in the early 00s.) It was my favorite quick and dirty SSH and serial client before then though!

Cool, but hachyderm.io also is not a trusted/recognizable domain for me. Trust issues all the way down!
