II don’t believe he is affiliated with Futo anymore.

How in the hell did a company of that size not start teaching DAU until 2019?

There is a big banner on Steam games that use denuvo

I have $400 of gift cards I’d like to spend first, if they could hold off until Thursday I’d be obliged.

Is the app a requirement to get a press pass?

I went to early elementary school with a girl from Djibouti. I went home to look up Djibouti in an ancient encyclopedia program. Probably one of the earlier Microsoft Encarta versions, and earned that Djibouti has the best national anthem.

If you’re still making use of play store apps, I quite like Quick Cursor. I’m on a Pixel 8 Pro and I miss my 3A.

I’ve given this app a go and like it. I’ve been on the search for a replacement to obsidian, but haven’t landed on anything yet. Is built in sync on the roadmap?

I like Obsidian storing everything as markdown files that I can edit outside of the application. I’m not so much a fan of the do-it-yourself obsidian live sync because it’s a fairly fragile setup and involves updating plugins and settings across multiple vaults and multiple devices.

Affine and Trillium go the database route. They are both decent (though affine handles tables poorly, while trillium’s mobile PWA UI has navigation issues), but with both I have real difficulty importing an Obsidian vault keeping the folder structure and images intact.

I would totally expect this of Boox, but am curious to know the examples. Do you have any you could share?

Oh, that’s a hot tip. I didn’t know the watches could handle tap to pay independent of the phone.

… Though I’m awaiting a new pebble, not sure I’d like to dual wield watches.

Nice try AI. Trying to bandwagon jump on human hitpieces? I see through your lies!

This was a cool read. I have no way to verify if the assertions are true - I don’t code beyond my yamls and some bash (and some wicked index/match formukas in excel) - but it took me on quite the journey.

Ah fair. All I get is “not available in my region”.

Sure, it is a step away that carries friction for me.

But you’re speaking in absolutes and blanketing “every step”.

I’ve taken many steps away from Google that were not “painless”.

There are always trade offs.

I would love to main a Linux phone, as I’m sure many here would. But the present trade offs are too great.

NFC payments are extremely convenient, especially when managing multiple cards - some of which are virtual. It’s a service I had, then went without for awhile, and then appreciate having back again.

I understand my initial comment makes it seem like I never carry a wallet true - which is not true - and liking Google Wallet is akin to saying “but I just like smoking” (in this community).

It’s great that you don’t find it as convenient, which means the trade off isn’t as substantial for you. However for my 5 days a week commuting it’s a load off.

No one said it did? It’s a service that I find great value in, and one that I had given up for a time and enjoy having access to again.

Everyone has their limit, this one is presently mine.

I’m sure there are, but thus far you haven’t made compelling/relevant ones.

Thanks, I had seen this but Curve is UK specific.

I ran graphene on a Pixel 4A 5G for a while until that phone inexplicably died.

I now have a Pixel 8 Pro, and I haven’t installed Graphene on it. Why? Google wallet.

That shit is so convenient. That I can leave my own wallet at home and tap to get on transit, tap my work’s virtual credit card, etc is holding me back from a second install.

A few things come to mind

1. Is this much different from the “reading view” popularized by Instapaper, reading later, etc and now baked into most browsers today?
2. What is a token?
3. How is it that tokens have become the base unit on which we denominate LLM work/effort/task difficulty/cost?
4. Does every LLM model make use of “tokens” or is it just one or a select few?
5. If multiple use the idea of tokens, is a token with one LLM/provider equivalent to a token with a different LLM/provider?

a weird world we live in.
