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

NixOS. There are lots of great things about it (like atomic upgrades, easy rollbacks, no dependency hell, safely mixing stable and unstable packages, and more) but it’s killer feature is that (almost) everything about the system is specified in a single config file
I’d describe it as “NeoVim for people who don’t want to spend time configuring it”. It has syntax highlighting (for pretty much any language you can think of) and LSP support out of the box. And the config file is just a TOML file. Here’s my current config for example:
theme = "monokai_pro_spectrum"
[editor]
line-number = "relative"
middle-click-paste = false
[editor.statusline]
mode.normal = "NORMAL"
mode.insert = "INSERT"
mode.select = "SELECT"
That’s it. No need to deal with Lua or VimScript
Also using commands after typing the :
is easier than in NeoVim since Helix will show you a list of available commands and a description of the closest match (or the one you choose from the list with the tab key). It looks like this:
I use Helix for quickly editing files and coding
I’m not willing to use it even while it’s still free, so no. Mastodon FTW
Yeah, I had a similar experience
I wonder why they did this though, before the change YouTube would recommend me videos based on videos I watched so it’s not like they actually needed the watch history to be turned on
The only way it’s profitable for someone to knock on your door to sell ANYTHING is if they are obscenely inflating the price (think 100-600% markup)
I agree, but does anyone actually do that? No one ever came to my house to try to sell me something

Yeah, my mom didn’t have issues with that, but she did have issues with other almost as basic stuff
Yeah, but when I tried to get my mom to use Linux, she kept asking me how to do some things like moving a file, printing a PDF, saving a document in Libreoffice (even though she had no trouble doing it on Windows also with Libreoffice) etc. I’ve set up everything to be as seamless and close to Windows as possible but she still always had trouble doing something so I gave up, and reinstalled Windows. Ig my mom is just less tech savy than your family ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Mostly yeah
I think the reason is that 1. Linux is still too hard for the average person and 2. The average person just doesn’t care
Yes, you don’t have to write bash scripts or compile the kernel yourself, but still, Linux is different in many ways from Windows. This is on top of the fact that most people don’t know much about tech in general and often have problems with (imo) very basic stuff. I honestly can’t imagine them downloading an ISO file, flashing it onto an USB stick and then booting from it. Most people probably don’t even know that Windows != PC
Then there’s also the fact that the average person just doesn’t care. They just want to get things done
(sidenote: I might sound elitist but I’m not. I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect everyone to be interested in tech, just like it’s not reasonable to, for example, expect everyone to be interested in cars. It just so happens that the tech industry is tightly connected to freedom, privacy, etc. while the car industry is not)
I’m using a OnePlus 6
It’s really fast and has a headphone jack, and you can get a second-hand one for really cheap (I got mine for ~170$). The preinstalled software sucks, but I’ve installed LineageOS on it and I’m really enjoying it
The only thing I don’t like is that the battery is non-removable
AFAIK not yet
I made my account yesterday so I can’t really say if I will stick with Lemmy in the long term, but for now mostly yes, most of the communities I like are here and Lemmy feels a lot nicer than Reddit. But there are a few communities that are still only on Reddit so I’m using both
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:
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
