Influencers job is all about creating hype, that's how they make money so if you find them annoying just ignore them.

AFAIK Omarchy is created for a specific audience i.e tech enthusiast and people who are just getting into Linux will surely find it amazing. We all have been through these phases: New to Linux -> start on standard Gnome or KDE (or Unity back in the day) -> get to know about ricing/customization/window managers -> get bored and go back to standard Gnome or KDE.

There is nothing wrong with it, this is the nature of open ecosystem of Linux. You should use whatever you like and most importantly do not get upset if something else is getting more hype these day.


If the result will be huge job loss doesn't that mean the overall buying power of all across all economies will go down drastically which begs the question who will buy the stuff that these companies that get rid of people are making?

Prices will also go down dramatically. When you eliminate human labour completely, you are essentially stuck with the problem of efficiently allocating raw materials. And raw materials are abundant compared to what human labour can currently produce. We're still a long way from there though.

There are also markets with scarce supply, like desired properties in prime locations. Probably some other similarly structured markets, as well.

So there is also a question, what would be happening to these.


If resources cost next to nothing to extract and process, isn't that speed running strip mining of the entire planet? Then what?

You mine the landfills. Or asteroids!

Not true. Raw materials depend on energy to extract and are geopolitically not a straight forward thing given that most materials are concentrated in few locations on our planet.

Exactly. Henry Ford made sure his own employees could afford the cars they were making.

These people making these kind of grand pronouncements either have an embarrassing blind spot, or are not making sincere, but carefully calculated statements.

Just via competition, Chinese researchers are doing much more than Bill Gates could ever hope to do through 'thought leadership' spread the benefits of generative AI.


You know that Henry Ford thing is a myth right? So your basing your whole world view on a myth about a business man > 100 years ago.

Explain why you think it's a myth. Also I'm basing my argument on common sense. And I didn't speak about my 'world view' in the comment.

Other companies and rich people. Imagine the economy gradually becoming more unequal.

The economy is already largely propped up by spending from the wealthiest decile.

The same exact people that the companies got rid of. The government pays them now instead of their former employer.

I have disabled it many many months ago and storage still shows 9 gb of Apple intelligence.


Did more research and apparently it’s a bug Apple never fixed that causes the deletion to only work sometimes. To fix it you need to run this Terminal command in recovery mode:

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_UAF_FM_GenerativeModels

How I love modern software lol


Don't forget no income tax on "agricultural income" even if that income is millions.


Coding is the act of translating an algorithm or system design into a specific programming language/framework/libraries domain. That part was never the hard part as it was mostly about learning the syntax/conventions etc of that stack and then doing the translation. The hard part is about coming up with righ algorithms and system design for your particular software and evoling that over time without breaking it (the "evolving over time" part is the most tricky part).


> That part was never the hard as it was mostly about learning the syntax/conventions etc of that stack and then doing the translation.

Everything is hard until you’ve done it at least once. Making shit work is hard (excluding cases when your particular task has been solved and shared with you)

If it was that easy I would never miss my ETAs.


Product quality has nothing to do with ubiquity. Its all about shady business deals that locks you into products where the migration cost is much higher.


Take any chronic health issue for which people have to take medicine or other treatment for the rest of life and find a cure for that (not treatment but cure). Unless you can do please STFU about AGI or ASI.


This is probably done by some udev rule file.


Why not just a share a new virtual desktop and move windows to it that you want to share?


AFAIK you can still install any random APK but the process will require enabling developer mode and one time 24 hour wait period. But the problem is many stupid Apps check that developer mode is on and refuse to work.


> many stupid Apps check that developer mode is on and refuse to work

Do you have some examples? I have developer mode enabled and have never seen any apps complaining (and I have used a lot of different banking apps).


Almost all banking apps in my country do this, absolutely ridiculous on their behalf obviously


An FDroid desktop client that adb installs APKs would actually be lovely. I pretty much exclusively use FDroid, but I gotta say I unfortunately find all their frontends to be rather buggy and with very little user feedback when things break (repo updates are hard to observe, downloads hang, updates mysteriously fail)


I feel you about the frontends being buggy. Right now I've settled with Droid-ify[1] for doing my F-Droid browsing.

[1] https://droidify.app/


Droidify sometimes does a weird thing when installing apps:

1. Ensure Droidify is not running. 2. Launch it. 3. Tell it to install or update to an app. 4. Receive an Android system prompt to approve the install/update. 5. Approve it. 6. Tell Droidify to install or update another app. 7. Reveive a system prompt to approve the action of step #3 again. 8. Approve it. 9. Receive system prompt to approve step #6. 10. Repeat #6 through #9 for more apps.

Workaround: Do steps #1 through #5.

Foxy Droid doesn't have this problem, but won't auto-download updates for you.


How long before they take that option away?


I've never encountered this or read about it. I believe you could toggle developer mode off after install.


I'm not aware of any apps that check for developer mode, that's mainly root.
