    Agentic behaviour isn't just coding. In fact: > We recommend using it for agentic workloads, tool use, data extraction, RAG, and long-context workflows. It is not recommended for a…

    They're not. When things go wrong it's better to compromise someone else's VM host than your own computer. It's only a matter of time now until AI will find novel ways to break out…

    A VM hosted by someone else. Somethig on your personal notebook or the proxmox server in your garage is still too risky.

    It’s a common word amongst people with even a bit of erudition. In truth, using it for any kind of software is overusing it.

    The main argument you give for it not making sense can easily be changed in Settings. The energy and network considerations have no impact on running a virtual machine in UTM – iPh…

    Yeah, but it’s also plain greed, and it’d be hard to tell the ratio.

    Having to pay for stuff you use is not a dark pattern.

    macOS covers 90% of people who would ever pay him.

    It's implied. Truly smart people manage to become affluent.

    Soldered RAM being bad is an opinion, not a fact. I’ve seen way too many RAM slots go bad. Smart people always get the highest configuration in computers, unless they know they’ll …

    Most of the big VPN companies known from advertisments all over the internet are probably honeypots of the usual countries.

    It would've been surprising before LLMs. Now that you could run all of your communication through AI, or at least have it check it, it's outright negligent.

    It would be nice to combine my iPhone and iPad mini into a single device.

    It’s available in the iOS app (or was for me), both logged in and out.

    To be fair, Ollama has been pushing their own cloud offering just as much. For some of the latest big models (from Minimax, GLM, Kimi, etc.) even after months they still don't prov…

    Anyone even a little bit serious will be paying either way. If not for the cloud models, then for hardware upgrades.

    I checked, too, after your comment. It's ~50% on an M2 (with 10 GPU cores) according to iStat Menus.

    I still don’t see the point of this. In my testing, it’s worse than Qwen 3.5 4B and even 0.8B.
