I am getting:

    WebGPUNotAvailableError: WebGPU is not supported in
    your current environment, but it is necessary to
    run the WebLLM engine.

When you install something via Flatpak, it still changes data in god-knows-what places on my disk. And the software itself has read/write access to god-knows-where on my disk.

The answer is probably "convenience and efficiency". But I would much prefer a "An application is a directory and by default cannot access anything outside of that directory" approach.

No deamon. Single file per DB. Less configuration overhead.

No idea about Lens, because I never used it. Aren't there webapps or web services for everything these days? I do everything that I do only occasionally via webapps. Barcode parsing for example.

I closed the app, stopped it and cleared the cache. Then restarted it.

The UI is surprisingly sane now. My first impression is that it is much better than before. Everything is neatly layed out in a series of albums, for each the latest images are shown and I can click on the album name and it displays them all.

So I do see my albums. Those seem to be just directories in /Pictures/ which it seems I can edit with the files app?

Am I missing out on anything this way? I don't need search.

All the usualy edit functions like cropping, adjusting colors etc also seem to still be there.

Unfortunately, it seems to completely mess up the interface?

I couldn't even see all photos anymore. Even though I do not use backup at all. So it is not possible that those photos are in the cloud or something.

For Google, this is still gemini-3.1-pro-preview, right?

If you really only use ChatGPT on IOS and a VM and nothing else, then I would be curious how you set that up. I do not see a "connect to codex via ssh" in my ChatGPT app. I only see "Connect to a desktop".

Oh HOLY MOLY! Now I see there is not only a "Remote" section in the app but also a "Connection" section where you can add an ssh connection. I need to try that.

Thanks!

Has any individual somewhere around the world tested this in court by now? Sued Anthropic for copyright infringement because Claude can reproduce information that is only available on their website?

It shouldn't be that expensive, right? If you sue them for - say - $10000 then what would the costs of such a court case be?

Personally, I think "learning" is not a copyright violation. But if they themselves make it one, then they should also face the consequences, no?

When I tried that with the Codex CLI version on a Linux VM, I did not get it to work. Possibly because OpenAI only supports connecting ChatGPT to a desktop installation of Codex?

The problem here is a different one: The user granting an app access to their files and then having no way to prevent that app from sending that data to the developer of the app.

I thought granting internet access to apps is not avoidable on Android.

When an app does not request internet, is it really guaranteed that it cannot talk to the outside world? Or is it having other avenues like opening a browser or some other component with a custom url or something?

Update: I just asked Gemini, and it does not look good:

An Android app without the INTERNET permission is not guaranteed to be isolated from the outside world. While it cannot make direct network connections itself, it can use several other mechanisms to transmit data externally:

Intent-Based Communication (The Browser) An app can launch an explicit or implicit Intent to hand data over to another app that does have internet access.

That means the app can open a system browser using a URL containing the data it wants to transmit.

It can also load a Chrome Custom Tab inside its own UI task, passing data through the URL string.

There is also Inter-Process Communication: If two apps from the same developer share a User ID (sharedUserId), they run in the same process and share all permissions, including internet access.

There is also the concept of Content Providers: Content Providers allow apps to share data. An offline app can write data into a shared database or a public Content Provider. A secondary, online-enabled app can then read that database and upload the contents.

Is it really necessary to install two huge external dependencies for this, F-Droid and Termux? No easier way to execute a few lines of code?

Also, what does that script even do? As far as I can see: Nothing. It clears files that would not exist if you did not install this whole thing. Is it a complete hoax, or am I missing something?

As far as I can tell, Google is the only one sending me visitors. And the other big AI players might do so in the future.

Another option would be "No anonymous bots". So at least if a bot would want to crawl my site, they would have to identify themselves. Since the rise of the AI bots, I am getting hurt badly with insane amounts of requests from residential IPs that mimic real humans. The only difference being they don't make me any money. Only produce costs.

By the way, how is the situation over at Amazon's Cloudfront? Do they offer something that helps? Anyone here with them?

Why not just use a VM in the cloud and just a CLI interface?
