Gas prices up, less people driving in Uber?

Ha! Didn’t realize that’s what it was doing, I’d compact and it would say snap compact with a little icon of a camera, so this all makes sense now.

I’d like to add my conspiracy theory and have some one completely shoot it down.

Telegram is a honeypot. They are supposed to be for privacy but their regular messaging isn’t end to end encrypted, you have to enable that per chat (I think per chat, I’ve almost never used the service).

The Russian government going after this guy is much like the fear mongering OpenAI and Anthropic put out about how powerful their models are or about having to see a doctor after taking Viagra and having a 4 hour erection. It’s marketing to make Telegram seem so private that the tech savvy Russian government has to stop this guy when in fact he’s giving the data to them.

I feel very foolish, I thought you were saying Jellyfin was trying to become a streaming service.

I was concerned.

What do you mean they’re moving toward trying to be a streaming service?

The water is drinkable but in many places not what I would call tasty.

Opencode Go/Zen claim to use infrastructure based in the EU, USA and Singapore that have a 0 retention policy.

So the cost makes sense I was unaware but

“The advantage of OpenRouter compared to using API providers directly is that you can switch between API providers without binding your money to a single provider.”

Opencode Go gives you a choice between “the best” open weight models and you’re not tied down to just GLM or MiniMax and Zen gives you an even longer list of providers including Claude and GPT?

Is it that Openrouter gives you access to like… every model and provider?

The amount the HN community, at least from what I’ve seen, is sleeping on OpenCode Go (and zen) is kind of amazing.

$10 a month gets you generous usage with the best open weight models and they claim to have zero retention and not to train on your usage.

It’s unclear to me what the advantages of openrouter are but it seems to be a default I see many people talking about here.

I probably couldn’t (wouldn’t) run NixOS without it.

Thousands is a conservative under count according to this.

I’m using zen because I have a Claude subscription and just like dabbling with the other models and I was shocked at how little flash cost but it was noticeably not at the level I’d like my model to be.

For me MiniMax 3 has really hit the sweet spot of being very cheap, though more than flash, but I’d also very capable.
