I sorta agree and i think this approach is a good one. A bit from alvin toefflers mindset but i disagree on the conclusion that AI is a needed useful thing. We are adding more and more complexity and abstraction to our world. This will simply end up in more stress and problems and not resolve anything. Like an atom bomb we simply have more worries and even less solutions

there are plenty of competing apps. they simply don't have the install base grindr has. it was the first to market well before tinder. other apps do exist particularly in central and eastern europe with local tech and install bases but they don't have the same reach.

also it's a bit disingenuous to call grindr a dating app, it's almost purely a sex hookup app but they would rather pretend it's something else entirely.

Unfortunately Ecuador has entered a rough spot through a combination of corruption and bad luck. I do object to saying Ecuador is one of the safer south american countries. The southern cone enjoys european like social and economuc conditions.

Colombia is now a pretty safe and reliable country for example. Unfortunately that is one of the factors that pushed Ecuador in a bad spot. As someone said before it became the weakest link.

In any case following the strategies of my south american compatriots is hardly a good idea on a global scale. It creates a vicious cycle of paranoia and inequality which leads to even more problems

I looked at the build docs and it mentions 'chromes' does this mean it uses the google chrome web engine?

DB is bad and honestly they are proud of it. Biggest problem is Germans love to complain but never take action. They prefer to speak in hushed tones if it will affect their personal reputation

Does anyone know how you can suggest to add more dishes?

This would be the strength of a wiki type thing where it's easier to collaborate

KDE plasma being the basis of Linux is BS. Why not test on gnome as well. KDE has always been bigger, more complex and slower

Sounds like a great idea but i'd rather not have to make an account. Could you release your source code so we could use other LLMs preferably free / self hosted options

ITwork2019 — Wed, 26 Jul 2023 14:50:28 +0000

Good point, but i also want to highlight the need to support the project especially with a bit of dev time. The project is already very usable and welcoming, i'd however like to see more work to really fill in the missing gaps. I am sadly not a dev, and I have little patience to get into frameworks and such but as a sys admin, I have been deploying the project and found nothing else like it anywhere.

This is a really cool project that is currently being handled by a single dev for the last 4 years. It'd be great if the community could support it. It is already a really cool for shared calendars but it has the potential for a lot more
