    I wonder if at some point some parts of Codex will only work with multi_agent_v2, or the Responses API in general. Then we'd need a fork to keep using e.g. llama.cpp's Chat Request…

    How does this affect local models? Will all the features of Codex still work with local models?

    I think issue #426[0] would be sufficient, since it would allow for editing after the command is finished. I understand that it probably won't happen any time soon, but embedding a…

    Forwarding the socket doesn't work, but if you use X11 then you can use `ssh -X`, and the remote Emacs will open a frame on your local X server. Do beware though that if you use th…

    Does Intune stop you from running any unapproved .exe's? Because IIRC Emacs can run as a "portable" executable that doesn't need to be installed in Program Files. (I don't have any…

    So you can call out the AI's mistakes. Everyone seems to be saying that AI is really good, except at their particular field. Make of that what you will.

    More like I think Musk's proclaimed ambition is actually important and achievable, unlike Altman's and Amodei's. Whether or not any of the three will actually accomplish their ambi…

    Honestly, I don't think Elon Musk can fairly be described as more evil than Dario Amodei or Sam Altman.

    Sure, but an idea is not a (physical) good, nor is it a service. Coming up with an idea or writing a book is a service and should be paid for (probably by commission), but (and Sta…

    Not so. Stallman created copyleft licenses as a defense against the current implementation of copyright. Copyleft uses the existing system of copyright to protect authors of free s…

    Comment #48685636

    The problem is that some GNU packages, Emacs among them, have a policy that copyright of the code must be assigned to the FSF. This policy exists because the FSF and GNU have gotte…

    Usury (i.e. taking interest) sounds like free market to me. If you don't like my interest rates, borrow somewhere else.

    Maybe the making of the thing should be paid for before it's made, rather than hoping that selling copies will recoup the investment. I.e., go back to patronage while abolishing co…

    At least bridge to something the freedom-loving folks will use, e.g. Matrix, or (better IMO) Jabber.

    Looking on the bright side, where there's AI-generated muck, there will be brass for humans willing to clean it up.

    For me it's useful to have a separate directory with my dotfiles repo, since my dotfiles repo's top level directory doesn't correspond to my home directory. I have one subdirectory…

    I still don't see what was so broken about X's security model that it warranted a whole new protocol (with its own problems that it's still solving 15 years later) instead of an ex…

    Meh, I felt that the article was over-dramatic and verbose at times.

    It seems to me that the issues on that page are Wayland-specific; anectotally, on my random X window manager works fine with Fcitx (except for Emacs, but that's probably Emacs' fau…

    VimFX + LegacyFox is still the best; it even works on about: pages.

    GTK (and QT I do believe) also support this on GNU/Linux.
