If I'm understanding correctly, each calls to a LLM makes a 3000W GPU run at full speed during the time of inference (let's say from 5 to 60 sec) while Google searches are historically mostly cached so very inexpensive for most searches.

Isn't the environmental impact 10 to 100 times what we were used to?

Honestly with the likes of Opencode / pi / hermes I don't really find the "Claude Code agent loop" part particularly interesting.

The edge Anthropic has on others lies on its models performance. CLI tooling (and obviously pricing) is definitely not better than others.

This should be higher, as this dates from 5 days ago I wonder why OP didn't bother to mention this follow-up

The cool thing about open-weights model is that you are free to use alternative providers that won't phone home to the original model creators.

I see 6 alternative providers listed on Openrouter for DeepSeek V4 Pro for example.

Another vote on niri being just great software. While itss idea (scrolling tiling windows manager) is novel, the software in itself is very polished with a very mature API that doesn't change at every version (looking at you hyprland).

Not sure about mid-life, he is still in his early twenties. He was a gifted programmer with very popular open source projects early on.

Thanks Dylan for all your work over the years. It has been very influential from Neofetch, Wal/Pywal, KISS Linux, to your own Bible, the Pure Bash one!

Wishing you all the best for the future, may the Greek weather keep you happy!

I use LineageOS on all my devices (it's actually my main criteria when buying a phone) to mainly install apps from F-Droid without relying on the Google Play Store.

It has the same familiar look and feel on all devices and by experience is way snappier than the original ROM.

> Maru is built on the latest Android Oreo.

Yeah this is abandonware, idk why it's being posted and upvoted now.

Something similar to real mobile/desktop convergence is still technically possible today with Phosh on PostMarketOS (or Mobian, Mobile NixOS or Arch ARM) and a compatible device with USB-C video out (like the PinePhone).

Interesting I assume it's with all drives off, how many Watts with some disk usage?

The hardware is basically the same as self-hosted NAS, the motherboard could even be of a lower quality. The software though is closed source and most consumer NAS only get support for 4-5 years which is outrageous.

- https://github.com/dbeley/fdroid-insights: just a simple website to help me find popular and well-maintained F-Droid apps

- https://github.com/dbeley/lastfm_cg: a scriptable lastfm collage generator (it has been active on my Mastodon account https://mamot.fr/@dbeley for years now)

And on the same model as F-Droid Insights but with different data sources:

- https://github.com/dbeley/firefox-addons-table: to discover Firefox addons available on NUR repository

- https://github.com/dbeley/lpa-table: to discover Linux apps tracked on LinuxPhoneApps.org

On top of Qobuz (which is great) there is also Ototoy (mostly for japanese indie music).
