Interesting, which OS are you using?

If linux, can you name 1-2 advantages the desktop has over the terminal?

Truly admireable on their part and a great paradigm for others. Reasons for this doesn't really matter to me but I can't help but wonder if somehow they were obliged or otherwise indebted to follow this route.

Sources for this? Deserves it's own post if data are there to back it up

You mean .. with their said privacy-first strategy

I bet there's plenty of other non-AI tracks you wouldn't pay to listen to

.. Sundar is announcing that DeepMind and the Brain team from Google Research will be joining forces as a single, focused unit called Google DeepMind

This would be enough as an anouncement, rest of it is just sugar coating.

  ~$ firefox -v
  Mozilla Firefox 102.5.0esr

.. which is November 15, 2022

what? can you be more specific? I'm using debian as my daily desktop and firefox and I've never ever had issues with anything, especially the web browser. I'm also staying away from fancy new things like snap. I've always managed to get everything I wanted either using apt or dpkg.

Can you please give an example of an application you needed available only as a snap?

Why do I need Docker for such a simple task? From their blog:

> The proxy is extremely lightweight. An inexpensive and tiny VPS can easily handle hundreds of concurrent users. Here’s how to make it work:

    SSH into the server.
    Install Docker, Docker Compose, and git:

I'm sorry but installing Docker on a tiny VPS last time I checked wasn't any light at all.

Maybe I'm too romantic, but I'd like to see an american GDPR (not saying that the eu name or the bill itself is better), and then an Asian and so on till we have one global GDPR protecting all consumer data.

I can confirm sdf.org doesn't exist using Firefox but shows ok with Chromium.

On my debian pc. Probably a firefox bug? Oh, wait.. The second time I tried sdf.org it showed up correctly, so I'm guessing it's a temporary DNS name resolution where it fails on the first attempt.. Doesn't make sense!

Most commenters think of this as an honest/dishonest situation on behalf of the agency. A different approach (and the one I'm reading it as) is that 'Isaac' operates as a seller that likes to make 100k per customer or project in any given time.

Not committing to each project, or actually listening, when the customer complains Isaac makes a few adjustments and continues business as usual.

He only cares about that 100k in a few month's time for a project. So now that he got only half of it he probably thinks he did the client a favor.

EDIT: the product is a life-saver for servers, kudos to the developer(s)
