Maybe you wanted to answer to the original comment? I was mostly ironizing it and mentioning a reduction in overall usage.

I used it until very recently. It’s not that bad, unless you’re one of those people who keeps dozens of opened tabs forever. My experience was pretty smooth, to be honest. I did some academic works on such a machine and often had several tabs opened at once, each with a different paper opened, along with google drive and stuff opened at the same time, and got no issues.

Hey, a core 2 duo with 3gb of ram isn’t crappy! :D

I used to monitor a few things using it, but now they’re all asking for captchas due to ai companies crawling everything :(

Another interesting question:

How much energy and resources would we save by simply slowing down Ai usage? A lot of the time people make unnecessary prompts or receive unhelpful generated text, and sure, it looks impressive, but most of the time you don’t need it at all.

Wish you success in the migration

How did they react to it?

It’s a tolino vision 2. Technically, it runs android 4 under the hood, but I would need to tinker with it via adb to run something else, and the small storage space available makes this not so appealing. I’d prefer to leave the complexity to the server and do the reading inside the browser in the ereader.

That’s an interesting setup, but my ereader probably doesn’t support the tinkering needed to install syncthing on it (it’s a refurbrished tolino vision 2) and the available memory is too low.

I will check them both, thank you. I don’t think my device supports koreader, but maybe I can read directly from the browser.

Já sabemos a quem perturbar quando algo der errado hehehe

Brincadeirinha (mas nem tanto)

The worst so far…

How would kagi help in the bias described in the article? If a person makes a biased search, any search engine will behave the same. The text mentions that even unbiased search engines are susceptible to this.

Funny how you need more and more technical knowledge to go deeper into privacy, until the last level, which is basically giving up on technology itself.

Xfce always look incredibly beautiful in other people’s screenshots, but on my system it always look so ugly lol

I already know a couple of people who already talk to chatbots as if they were their friends. This is so depressing… And by the current state of things, I might be reading bot publications and replying to bots here and there, without knowing. That just increases my will to die

What? You live in a lower income country and doesn’t have a reliable internet connection and a high spec machine? Our board of directors have a personal message for you:

It would be awesome if we could map the increase in hardware demands on popular software by each new feature, design changes, and other minor changes added over time.

Another libreoffice user here. Published a couple of academic works edited entirely on it, and no one complained about formatting errors. Things have improved a lot in the last years. We also have onlyoffice as another great alternative

Jellyfin users have been warning about such things for a long time, but very few actually listened. Well, here we are, hope more people migrate now
