Have tried it and its gestures are impressively configurable but key-based - having to configure every single key for every single language to delete a word on left swipe &c. is a little too much. All these things would be visible on every key with no way to hide them, which feels like wires sticking out. There’re no actions for scrolling through correction options. As far as I can tell, neural prediction is specifically for swipe typing and I don’t use swipe typing. And it supports just a handful of languages too. But thank you!

It appears there’s a PR for gestures already, but there’s a non-zero probability it won’t be merged because of unexpected patents out of all things. Wonderful.

Yes, because I consider how the keyboard feels too. FlorisBoard felt better than Heliboard to my brain. And its action bar can be configured to always display above the correction bar.

Thank you, I’ve given it a try. It feels less bad than the other options I tried, probably forking it and adding missing gestures and small improvements could improve it much more. But text correction is still like in Heliboard.

Should be doable with Termux:

1. https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux (the terminal emulator itself);
2. https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux.api (for termux-sms-list and termux-sms-send commands);
3. https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux.boot (to make the script launch automatically after reboots; don’t forget a wake lock to keep the process alive).

termux-sms-list returns messages in JSON, which is easy enough to handle with, say, jq in bash or json in python. The script itself can be a simple loop that fetches the latest messages every few minutes, filters for unprocessed ones from whitelisted numbers and calls termux-sms-send.

Maybe it’d make sense to daemonise the script and launch it via sv.

But the Termux app weighs quite a bit itself.

Have been using Neo Launcher since it had the features I needed from Nova (mostly hiding most apps from the app list while having them on the home screen in some folder so that it isn’t a mess when you want to find something specific). It hasn’t been updated in a while, but it works perfectly fine for me.

For Tolkien’s work, there is the twelve volume “The Complete History of Middle Earth” which is about as inside baseball as you can get for Tolkien.

I’d replace HoME with Parma Eldalamberon, Vinyar Tengwar and other journals publishing his early materials here.

Recommending Italo Calvino’s Six Memos for the Next Millennium, the lectures he has been preparing shortly before his death.

Not an assembly guide for a work of literature, but it’ll help your own process if it’s already ongoing and you want to improve.

The lectures also have some comments on what Calvino himself was doing here and there and why.

The Phoebus cartel strikes again!

Because we have tons of ground-level sensors, but not a lot in the upper layers of the atmosphere, I think?

Why is this important? Weather processes are usually modelled as a set of differential equations, and you want to know the border conditions in order to solve them and obtain the state of the entire atmosphere. The atmosphere has two boundaries: the lower, which is the planet’s surface, and the upper, which is where the atmosphere ends. And since we don’t seem to have a lot of data from the upper layers, it reduces the quality of all predictions.

It would. But it’s a good option when you have computationally heavy tasks and communication is relatively light.

Once configured, Tor Hidden Services also just work (you may need to use some fresh bridges in certain countries if ISPs block Tor there though). You don’t have to trust any specific third party in this case.

If config prompt = system prompt, its hijacking works more often than not. The creators of a prompt injection game (https://tensortrust.ai/) have discovered that system/user roles don’t matter too much in determining the final behaviour: see appendix H in https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.01011.

Like Firefox ScreenshotGo? (I think it only supports English though)

The temperature here was very interesting for a second or two until I remembered some people use °F.

CVEs are constantly found in complex software, that’s why security updates are important. If not these, it’d have been other ones a couple of weeks or months later. And government users can’t exactly opt out of security updates, even if they come with feature regressions.

You also shouldn’t keep using software with known vulnerabilities. You can find a maintained fork of Chromium with continued Manifest V2 support or choose another browser like Firefox.

Very cool and impressive, but I’d rather be able to share arbitrary files.

And looks like you can only send images in DMs, but not in groups/forums.

If your CPU isn’t ancient, it’s mostly about memory speed. VRAM is very fast, DDR5 RAM is reasonably fast, swap is slow even on a modern SSD.

8x7B is mixtral, yeah.
