you are thinking of capitalists, or do you think Sam Altman and Musk are some tech geniuses?

"Governments are still more powerful than corporations, this is why I am more afraid of the censorship of the internet by governments than of it by corporations"

Sure mate, disregard the fact that some companies make more money than half the countries in the world and are actively trying to undermine democracies, but yeah it's the government's fault for trying to protect the citizens.

> Gnome 3 just works. It takes up reasonably small visual space, shows windows, has multiple desktops, I can do everything with either just a keyboard or with just a mouse.

well you see, maybe one day they'll be the CEO of that multi-trillion dollar company, so it's better to err on the side of capitalism. /s

Ah yes, the pleasures of paying $1000+ dollars for a phone whose developers can't even bother to add an `if (!indexingDone)`.

I'll answer your question though: because it doesn't show anywhere the progress of the indexing.

But you are signing it with your _private_ key, presumably. You know, the key that stays on your device and nobody knows?

Why would a company that used petabytes of text, images and audio without caring about ownership suddenly draw the line at a random person's chats?

What an incredibly bad take. "It's not open source because we have the source but not the thought process of the developer" - well then no project on this earth is truly open source by your definition.

same argument can be applied to you, if you don't want to use Claude/OpenAI/Deepseek instead of Gemini, then DON'T!

that's the nice thing about open weights, you can always retrain them with the latest documentation, no need to fill your context
