Thank you! I remember in my country we had the same app for DOS (before those things were called apps) and it was awesome! Forgotten how convenient that it is to not think about switching layouts.

Considering half of the time layout switch somehow does not do anything on the first press.

Not sure what point you wanted to make, but this calculator is quite shocking. GPT 5.5 pro, with "a long document" and 10 requests a day gives 25% of daily CO2 emissions!

Ten coding sessions a day with Opus is still 4.7%!

This feels enormous. I will definitely stop rolling my eyes when people complain about AI CO/water usage...

Oh wow, they already got 50% of investments back in roughly three years? This is going to be insane money making machine. Or is it not the point op was trying to make?

This is article about Chrome doing something undesirable with AI. Which can be easily disabled by going into chrome://flags. And suggestion is to download Firefox which is also doing something undesirable with AI. Which is also can be easily disabled. Seems both browsers are quite similar in this regard, so suggestion to replace one with another is not very helpful?

Seems like all of this can be done directly with chatgpt and claude? Why add complexity of running claw?

Very generic. Shows the same obvious info for two completely different people. "interests in tech... struggles with procrastination...". Also funny - red shirt means you are Labor (in Australia).
