Putting a local LLM into a product that doesn’t need it, just like other businesses do, is just one step too far for me. I hate this AI trend with a passion.

Seconded, the pushing AI trend is just off putting and is something that literally no-one asked for. It reminds me of that brief trend of 3D TVs.

Fuck right off Netanyahu!

Using comments as an excuse for writing shitty code.

Alien 2 if I remember correctly.

No, I am actually just saddened by it. I know people voted for him and it’s easy to say they deserved it, but the misery caused by his politics goes so profoundly deep into a society that already have so many people struggling, that I just find it depressing.

Currently trying to figure out how to create and maintain an internal CA in order to enable pod to pod TLS communication, while using letsencrypt for my public ingresses.

I love to read but have a really hard time choosing a book over television.

Have you tried audio books or podcasts? I usually switch off my screens around two hours prior to sleep and tend to listen to podcasts and audio books until I fall asleep. Important to remember is that the voice of the narrator is super important, so make you get one that make you feel comfortable.

No of course not.

I still pay for things I can actually own, however subscription services routinely change, limit or simple remove items that you supposedly bought.

Piracy equals culture preservation in an age of subscription services.
