I want to buy the whole of Switzerland.

While valve has a lot of deserved goodwill, that’s always the problem - they’re well-behaved, but set up in a way in which the customer has no leverage if they where to change their approach tommorow.
Good thing drm-free games run just as well on the steam deck.
At the moment, LLMs just aren’t very good at writing anything that is interesting. I experimented with it a bit for shits and giggles, and tried out several different local Models and online Services.
I’m not saying that it’s impossible it’ll improve, but for me as someone who enjoys writing, having your writing done by a tool just misses the point. I like to write because it allows me to express myself, and off loading parts of that process to a tool makes it less personal, less me.
I won’t judge anyone with a different opinion, but for me, part of the enjoyment of reading also comes from seeing how the author and their experiences colour their writing, which usage of such a tool, in a way, also diminishes. At the moment, I just can’t see an avenue to the prevalence of LLMs making creative writing better.
That’s why I stopped using it. They require a phone number, phone numbers require kyc with an ID around here, and there’s just too much illegal shit on there.
It’s of course possible to get a more pseudonymous experience, but honestly, what they offer isn’t worth the hastle.
Is the VR streaming in the Local net (PC to Headset)? Just run the WiFi router without plugging it into the wall. Connect only the pc and the headset.
Also, appart from that, to use more wired devices, maybe use an unmanaged switch. Don’t think that does anything forbidden here.

There’s a whole bunch of such surrealist art, and while me being a rather lazy student for most things art history means I have no idea whether there’s a better name for it, or how connected the artists behind them are, I still tend to find them rather fascinating.
Also, I’m not saying that surrealist art must necessarily miss a narrative throughline, though it’s true here.
I looked up the rest because it piqued my interest. Black Cat City by Jay Kinney, published in 1980.
I get called like once or twice a week, and it’s usually something time sensitive or important. Always found people just flat out refusing to answer the phone crazy.
That presumes that those corps have any respect for their customers.
Anyway, I get the Smart TV Problem. I personally solved it by living in a studio with no space for a TV, but I like your approach too.
I know, but what other OLED panel manufacturers are there? Samsung? Not sure their smart TVs are better, privacy wise.
Actually, I’m pretty sure any manufacturer that also sells high end smart TVs has a 2k TV that sells your data.
I also never understood his apparent expectation that a higher end model from a manufacturer that sells data will be more privacy friendly. Wealthier people make for more expensive ad sales.
I mean, LG Displays aren’t bad in that regard. The different departments of some of these conglomerates might as well be wholly different companies.
Also, if you buy an OLED Monitor from another Vendor, chances aren’t all that bad it’s a LG panel either way.
Yeah, cheesecake would be nice. Anyways, the problem here in Germany is that letters are still used for most things that are in any way official, we still don’t have that whole e-government thing you got over there.
In Germany, you can just put a little sign on your letterbox that tells the post person to not give you any free newspapers or mail.
Only ads I’ve gotten in years where the ones directly addressed to me, and that’s like every few months from one of two slightly old fashioned firms, and tends to include a voucher, so that’s something.
If I remember correctly, the app was originally built by an Australian public broadcaster and then sold to WordPress Matt, so yeah.
Oh, yeah, wait, I am using AntennaPod too. The subscription stuff was actually the reason I switched from Pocket Casts. Mixed up the names. I’d claim old age, but I’m not that old yet, really.
Many modern podcast solutions seem to be injecting ads into the audio file they serve, to varying degrees of success.
I listen to several ad supported English language podcasts, and most of them seem to have difficulties with Pocket Casts AntennaPod, or some other part of my setup. The only ones that do get ads placed are the ones that use Spotify Megaphone for their backend.
There is a paid version of pocket casts?
It’s a MX Master 2S, funnily enough. I still have a over 10 year old working M705 Marathon, on second thought, that I had once bought for my laptop. Had to open it up and bend the mechanism for the left click back into shape once, but no Problems besides.
I’ve had shops that either accept PayPal, or a bank transfer that they’ll manually process when they get to it.
