> it regularly gets extremely slow if there is a lot of text in a single conversation

Now this I have definitely experienced. I chalk that up to it being an electron app, but who knows.

This is basically my setup but I'm using tailscale and zellij. I don't have any contingency plan in place for my power or home internet going down though..

How complex are they? Drivers vs an entire application would be a big difference in token usage, and it could also depend on the type of work being done.

Weird, ChatGPT has always worked really well for me.

Oh, it's only the second best selling electric truck on the market. What a massive failure.

Any word on when you'll add support for antigravity? I often switch between harnesses and models and subscriptions, both for work and personal stuff, this is an awesome idea. One thing I do that I don't think you have support for is running sessions on different machines. Do you have support for, or do you plan on adding support for, syncing across machines?

Well, the kids were eating Tide Pods not too long ago, seems like Siri's not that inaccurate after all.

It's still very early days. I have no doubt that etiquette and norms will be established that alleviate these issues.

Those played a huge part as well. Well, not so much the union busting.

> My impression was that OP was using it rather fuzzily, conflating "poor" and "bad" and "unpleasant to be around" and whatever other notions of "bottom" might be floating in the air, in the service of a general air of contempt toward Those People.

That assumption says a lot more about you that it does the person you were responding to.

I wonder how much that has to do with it. Sorry you've struggled with it, though, definitely not fun.

Zero proof that any of that works to prevent police states from forming.

You're not going to get far talking to political fanatics. And like you said, they very likely do not have their own houses in order.

I think that used to be the case but has dramatically shifted in the opposite direction in recent years.

As a counter point, I've been using CC since December and I've never really had any problems with it. It's always done exactly what I want it to and I continue to be blown away by its capabilities, regardless of which of their models I've used. I also almost never burn through my $200/m plan.
