Letting the agents bang their heads against the wall hunting down a config fix for a random malfunctioning piece of my homelab instead of me is by far my favorite part of the AI present.

This is really neat. I've recently been watching people use custom pi harnesses and thinking of jumping in, but I was dreaming of a way to do essentially what pi-msg does so that I could drive it remotely in a more full-featured way. Thanks for sharing.

The way I understand it, the connection is negotiated via BT, but then wifi is used for the fat data pipe to run the display.

The comments on this thread point to not very many people being aware of this.

I couldn't think of a use case for something this. For anyone else like me, the readme outlines one near the bottom which seems genuinely nice:

Set this up, allow no-auth sending from any address on your LAN, and then spinning up new local services that need outgoing mail is easy, because you can just give them the IP of the relay and omit credentials.

I am constantly surprised how seldom aider is mentioned in threads like this. I understand that it's not directly integrated into the editor, but the "editor + parallel CLI tool chain" paradigm feels so natural to me because we drop to terminal for so many other parts of building software. If you haven't tried it (particularly the architect/editor modality), it's worth a couple of hours of experimenting.

For me, YouTube Premium (for family) is so worth it because:

- It removes ads for my kids, which are going to watch YouTube no matter what I do

- It includes YouTube Music, so I don't need a separate Spotify subscription

- It sends money to creators based on what I proportionally spend time watching, rather than based on how valuable of an audience I'm deemed to be when an ad slot is auctioned

- It is a signal that I'm willing to pay for content, and I want platforms and creators to continue offering that option

I like to imagine as if we threw something into the air so hard that it went up for 26 years, then came back down for 26 years.

The best part about Kagi is that if the default results don't seem helpful, one click restricts results to only discussions and forums, which is usually exactly what I want to do next.

As my income drops in slow periods, I pause subscriptions to many things. The very last two I would be willing to give up are (n-1): YouTube Premium and (n): Kagi.

That also is a factor in why I pay for more than I need. I want them to succeed.

Personally, I would still love a site-by-site "reject non-essential cookies" prompt from an extension that's in the same place, with the same UI, on every site. Still a click, but lots better than having to figure out how to accomplish it on each and every site.

Tax wealth above $100 million at ~90% upon death.

In other words, make all the money you want, get as rich as you want, but it goes back to the commons when you die and can't use it any more.

The top 50% of earners in my household pay 100% of the bills. How is this fair?!

Oh wow you owe it to yourself to try aider then. Architect mode especially, where you use one (usually reasoning) model to plan and one (usually Claude) to write code, is pretty awesome.
