<p>So you think there no other way in the world that ice agent would have a bruise? Is there any proof the bruise was from this incident? Did he have any bruises before from any other ice activity?<p>They are grabbing people day in and day out.<p>Again, think.<p>This was the same incident where the administration said they guy was fighting for his life after being struck by the car however:<p>“Eventually, the agent who shot the motorist approaches the vehicle. Seconds later, he turns back around and tells his colleagues to call 911. Agents blocked several bystanders who attempt to provide medical care, including one who identifies himself as a physician. At the same time, several agents, including the agent who opened fire, get in their vehicles and drive off, apparently altering the active crime scene.”<p>Think for yourself.</p>

<p>So the “ICE agent” presented identification to her showing he was law enforcement? Nope. Oh so he got out of a vehicle marked as ICE? Nope.<p>Do you want to live in a country where an unidentified masked individual with a gun can say “im a fed”, stop a car and force someone out without proper ID? That’s what you’re in support of. I’d say one would have a right to self defense.<p>Also internal bleeding was literally just a bruise, like the internal bleeding I get from walking into the corner of my coffee table.</p>

<p>This may not be a huge issue depending on mitigating controls but are they saying that anyone can submit a PR (containing anything) to Immich, tag the pr with `preview` and have the contents of that PR hosted on https://pr-<num>.preview.internal.immich.cloud?<p>Doesn't that effectively let anyone host anything there?</p>

<p>I know im in the minority but I have a car (Mazda) that has CarPlay but no touch screen, so you have to scroll through the elements on the screen with a wheel.<p>iOS 26 is terrible on it. They decided to use gray as their selection color where it used to be a blue outline. So now I need to, while driving, visually hunt for a gray color to see what im about to select.<p>Even worse the gray color can either be the background of a target OR a border around the target, it's not consistent.</p>

<p>You can actually swipe up from the search field at the bottom and that will show all tabs. (If anyone is reading this from apple, that animation should be sped up).<p>However, this doesn't work if you've scrolled down already and the bar is minimized. It literally flashes as if to acknowledge your swipe and does nothing.<p>Also if you miss by moving your thumb just slightly lower, you'll close the app haha.<p>They thought about it a bit, but definitely not enough.</p>

<p>Hey I'm curious what your thoughts are on whether you need a full blown agent that moves the mouse and clicks to extract contents from webpages or a more simplistic tool that can just scrape pages + take screenshots and pass it through an LLM is generally pretty effective?<p>I can see niches cases likes videos or animations being better understood by an agent though.</p>

<p>I'm looking for something similar that can also extract the diff of content on the page over time, in addition to screenshots. Any suggestions?<p>I have a homegrown solution using an LLM and scrapegraphai for <a href="https://getchangelog.com" rel="nofollow">https://getchangelog.com</a> but would rather offload that to a service that does a better job rendering websites. There's some websites that I get error pages from using playwright, but they load fine in my usual Chrome browser.</p>

<p>Ah that's really good to know. Makes sense for it not to operate under 1000 ft since you clearly can't have a "Dive" RA for the lower aircraft. I assume maybe just the higher aircraft gets the "Climb" RA then by design.</p>

<p>Same, I live in San Diego where there are lots of military helicopters and activity in close proximity to SAN. I mostly see them go directly above the airport. I wonder what is different about DCA (maybe noise abatement?) why this isn't done.</p>

<p>I wasn't able to fully understand the video but from prior knowledge TCAS requires both aircraft to communicate and give their pilots differing instructions (go up to one, go down to another) right? Do all army helicopters have TCAS and is it generally interoperable with commercial airliners?</p>

<p>Hey! I'm sorry you feel that way. There's several people who have subscribed to updates to OpenAI from my comment so there is clearly value to other commenters. I understand not everyone is interested though. It's just a free side project I built and I make no money.<p>Additionally, I believe my contribution to the conversation is that gpt-4o-mini, the previous model advertised as low-cost, works pretty well for my use case (which in this case can help others here). I'm excited to try out gpt-03-mini depending on what the cost looks like for web scraping purposes. Happy to report back here once I try it out.</p>
