    Who cares? Is it theft if a thief gets robbed of their stolen goods? Gives me more of a modern Robin Hood vibe tbh. No, seriously: first of all, that's not the AI labs' data, it's …

    I completely agree with you, because I usually think the same way and I'm more concerned with the result than the path taken to achieve it. But you shouldn't forget that there are …

    I'm not really sure what to make of this. First of all, I think this decision should be left to the project maintainers rather than being dictated by the platform itself. Besides t…

    There's little to add to that. I've been a Kagi user for years now; I've kept an eye out for alternatives time and again, but I just haven't found anything even close to Kagi. I ca…

    I completely agree. This isn't about physical discs vs. digital stores. It's about ownership. When I, as a customer, pay a lot of money for something and get nothing more than a te…

    I'd almost bet that OpenAI will do the same thing with its plans as soon as Anthropic makes the first move. It's just a matter of who blinks first.

    Sooner or later, Anthropic will probably have to take this step if they want to actually make money. Either way, they're going to lose a huge chunk of their user base because of it…

    I absolutely disagree. Tools should always be built for humans, not for machines! Believe it or not, I'm still one of those people who is actually capable of operating their own co…

    Yes, and I am glad OpenClaw built it first, so Apple doesn’t do such a terrible mistake.

    I use Gruvbox Dark (hard) wherever I can. I found the community made themes pretty decent for this one. Can’t say the same about Monokai. I tried a few, but all of them looked diff…

    In terms of aesthetics, Monokai Pro is my favorite color scheme. However, what always stops me from using it is the fact that it is simply only available for an handfull of tools. …

    I'm shocked. 90% of my game library is physical. So if the console is priced at 799 € without a disc drive, and the drive costs an additional 149 €, that totals 948 € if I want to …

    What delay are you talking about? I never encountered such issues. Apps are launching extremely fast. With an ARM Mac almost instantly. But maybe it’s just an issue if you are usin…

    I have to admit, I read the article and the comments and can't help but smile a little. Personally, I switched from Windows to macOS & iOS (Linux on my second computer) back in 201…

    Berkeley Mono is also my favourite font. I use it in the terminal, editor and for my IDE. It's a bit expensive, and I can understand if someone can't or doesn't want to spend money…

    Wow, this probably changes everything we thought we knew about this company, the product and its CEO. No, seriously, does he think no one notices that the new X logo still hides th…

    $10/mo for unlimited searches would be great. I recently subscribed to Kagi. So unlucky I don’t have the early adopters benefit. Kagi is a great product. But constantly having to t…

    Having a low entry is very important to get new users on board. But the included searches of 200 in the standard plan is extremely low. Even a normal user will hit this limit quick…

    Can confirm that. I asked ChatGPT for information about a book my son was reading at school. While the answer sounded really good at first sight, the content was absolutely nonsens…

    I like the pastel color pallet of Nord very much. However, once tried to use in my text editor, and it was awful to read since everything was just blueish and very hard to distingu…

    Actually that’s a fantastic idea. Should have thought of that for myself. But as a warning, a lot of the Dracula themes are are not correctly (for some reason especially the Dracul…
