Thing most miss about Taler when comparing to Were or Blik:

You can download Taler app, open it, withdraw money from ATM or a friend, without logging in, without even having a bank account or app provided by a bank. Tokens in the Taler wallet are decoupled from current system and cannot be taken away without shutting whole system down. It is the closest to digital cash we have that does not depend on blockchains.

I can only imagine this being said from someone not really using these editors daily, I use Helix, so: "xdjp" becomes "move this line two lines down", "mic" becomes "replace text in current quotes with", "A" becomes "at the and of the line add", no thanks.

You mean humans stop using written text? No documentation, science papers, todos, longer form async communication, transcription, etc.?

The thing I hate with vibed apps the most is zero seconds spend on how things around what is being build are already structured and what problems was already solved, just focusing on shiny result.

`sudo sh scripts/install_debian.sh`, a 583 lines long script, basically now a whole software just to handle the installation of this project on one distribution, seriously? If we vibecode already, just do the normal packaging.

Skeuomorphic design was a solution to teaching the customer how to use the digital product, but I wish we have more of its side effects like shadows, icons that pop and other things that are pleasant for the eye and depth.

I don't know if it's just because it was better or am I just tired of the current white (like #FFFFFF white) backgrounds with everything flat and not connected. I would like my browser tabs to be in the shape of a physical tab in notebooks.

Is there some tool, language or way to early script together inputs and outputs or external programs, with some safety or "proper" (for lack of better word) programming languages but with convenience of Bash (no wrapping like "exec(programname)"?

Honestly, beyond my deGoogled Android smartphone and a GNU/Linux laptop I am looking around for pocketable device between those. Mecha Comet looks like a perfect fit, but it is not released yet.

Tool like this exposes big problem with the current shape of the Internet, I believe.

Everything should be possible with just plain netcat and IP stack. Someone asks about NAT holepunching, encryption, static IDs, permissions, etc., yes this is what Internet lacks and why every P2P app reinvents it over and over again.

Here is another, not so new, idea:

Username is your public key, password is your private key. So we get end to end encryption and account ownership out of the box. Something similar to how .onion addresses work. Needing easy to remember addresses? Build aliases on top of that. Needing server-side automation? Handle trusted server your private key.

Also, almost everyone carry a 24/7 powered and Internet connected device in their pockets. The Internet - network that allows globally sending any data between devices. Maybe with full redesign third-party email servers should be made optional.

I believe we should focus less on how to redesign whole service and build more universal layers instead. First, vsending any data to any machine. Second, optionally remotely accessing our data. Third, mail-like format of data.

"Real" here is very stretched, it is more on the Android than Fedora side, if we measure being "real" Linux as being close to popular desktop distro stack.

It is based on Hallium. And no Flatpak or swappable graphical environments here.

Still cool project.

"...avoiding OS security restictions by going through the debug port..." the user delibretry opened and paired to app with clear visual confirmation in order to use it.

What you are is one factor. What happened to MFA approach here? Also it is a factor we cannot change, so if someone obtain a video of our face like that or success in making a working fake, we cannot change our look like we can with a password.

Uruky allows JSON formatted output and basically started to use them as API for my private SearXNG instance. Basically using them as paid search API that is much more reliable than scraping DuckDuckGO and Brave, with the benefit of blocking common AI slop sites and manual ranking of domains. Having EUSP first and Mojeek second somehow gives very satisfying results, both small nearby European businesses and big sites are searched up well, even without depending on American index.

Almost all LLM do traditional web search in the background anyway. So if you want data straight from the source without probabilistic text generation, it will be faster to do the search yourself. Like if I want to know the country of origin of a company, would type its name and go to Wikipedia. While LLM would usually search literally "What is the country of origin of ..."? and then visit LLM generated sites that SEO optimized the query on which a fraction of text is going to be relevant after which the information is very low quality.

Abstraction and reusability is good even when copying is getting cheap.

In a same vain, why create functions or classes, when AI can rewrite the code in place and keep track of rules.
