I phrased that wrong, in my first comment I was just poking fun at how companies are adding LLMs to everything for the sake of it, like:

1. Add LLM integrations
2. ???
3. Profit

And they aren’t doing anything innovative either, they just act as a middleman between you and OpenAI/Google/etc.

It looks like Kagi assistant is one of those rare cases where the LLM integration does actually make sense, but I don’t think paying $15 more is much better than just opening chatgpt.com in a second tab

Yeah, ik. I just said ChatGPT because there are more people who know what that is than people who also know the term LLMs

>AI-powered product/feature
>look inside
>ChatGPT wrapper

Yeah, this happened to me too

I replaced my old proprietary gender with a free and open source one

Polish (my native language) and english (duh). I also want to learn lojban for fun, but I keep procrastinating

I just skimmed through the podcast so I might be wrong, but it looks like the subscription would only cover updates to their AI “features”:

‘[…] is there a vision beyond “the software will do more for you” than just drive your mouse around?’

[…] Should the mouse do more than just move the cursor? Absolutely. And it does that today, and I think similarly about being more productive with shortcuts to the large language models and all kinds of other things. The guy that I met at a barbecue over the weekend who has programmed 120 shortcuts on his mouse, that’s the kind of stuff that can extend human potential in ways that are healthier.

Yeah, apparently the subscription for the mouse would be on top of the upfront cost. I’m honestly baffled that Logitech’s CEO thinks anyone would buy it, this feels like an april fools joke

This is so absurd. The only updates peripherals need are firmware bug fixes. And it’s a standard that these updates are free. Having subscriptions for hardware is kinda dystopic tbh

From the podcast:

Some only have a mouse or only a keyboard, but many of them have both. But the thing that shocked me was that the average spend on that globally is $26, which is really so low. This is stuff you use every day, that sits on your desk every day, that you look at every day. That’s like the price of four coffees at Starbucks or less than a Nike running shirt. There is so much room to create more value in that space as we make people more productive — to extend human potential.

You know why on average people spend so little? Because a mouse is just a mouse. It doesn’t need to do anything besides controlling the cursor. It doesn’t need a “dedicated AI button that launches Logi AI Prompt Builder” (which is just a ChatGPT wrapper btw)

I don’t want to be that one person that just complains about capitalism under every post, but things like this make it hard. We have already perfected the design of a mouse. But every year publicly traded companies need to make more money than in the previous year, so let’s add subscriptions to everything. And also AI, because investors love it

Meow >:3

TIL about aphantasia

Anyways, I’m between 1 - 2, and I just wanted to say that just bc I can visualize things in my head doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy seeing things with my eyes. If I was good at drawing, I definitely would draw my OCs and such

But no, I don’t watch adult videos. I just don’t really like nsfw. Maybe I’m asexual or smt, idk

FINALLY someone gets this. I don’t care about the “premium look” whatever that means, I just don’t want my phone to break when I accidentally drop it. Which is why I always put a case on my phone

In fact, I’m pretty sure phone manufacturers started putting glass on the back of phones specifically to make them less durable so that customers buy a new phone sooner

I’ve read the article and damn, this is disturbing af. Isn’t this pig killing method basically the same as what nazi used on humans?

…I’ll try to reduce the amount of meat in my diet

If god exists then he is a disappointment to me. Bro “loves us” and all of that, but he won’t do anything when

• people are dying in wars
• companies are exploiting people for profit, especially in developing countries
• north korea exists
• his “followers” are spreading hate against [insert minority here] in his name
• etc., you get the point

From the ROM website’s footer:

A custom ROM based on AOSP, which offers a minimal UI enhancement & close to stock pixel Android ROM with great “Performance”, “Security” and “Stability”.

I see now why they “quoted” stability :P

Oh, and just using ADB is enough to trigger the code to wipe the data. But that’s fine according to the developer because “its just a format data, not like your phone gets destroyed”

What makes this even funnier is that on their website they say that the ROM is great and all (with very poor grammar and odd phrasing), but they don’t say what they actually changed. The closest thing I could find was their screenshot gallery where they show some new icons and AI-generated wallpapers

Also corporate memphis art everywhere because why not lol

I feel sorry for anyone who was using this ROM, but this whole thing is hilarious

This actually happened to me btw. I am now in the afterlife and my soul has been cursed to configure NixOS & Nix Home Manager for all eternity
