If you like the Antigravity 1.0 experience, Vscode+Antigravity Extension should be very close.

It is used seriously inside Google (the internal equivalent version). Many people swear by it and many don't think it's as good as Claude/Codex.

For future PCB business card ideas: it would be dope if it can play audios.

Gemini says you can power a piezo buzzer (causing a small bump on a PCB) w/ NFC (just enough power to drive it) to play the modem dialup handshake audio.

For a moment I thought this is related to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentadactyl

(Reading the wiki I'm really glad this is still alive).

Upon seeing "Bluetooth" and "Daily steps" I'd assume this is another watch that requires daily charging, but wow 2y battery w/ CR2016!

Volvo, with their terrible infortainment system's performance, I'm not sure if it's capable of displaying ads.

I think the standard control for TV is the RS-232C port on the TV.

Mostly because the carbon dioxide emission is not properly reflected in the fossil fuel pricing.

Basically, every single person on earth is subsiding the big oil by bearing the consequence/cost of the higher CO2 concentration.

I don't know how to rationalize it: is passkey so good that even the banking apps start pushing it, or is it all a big conspiracy theory with a hidden agenda?

I was talking about a self-hosted search engine.

Given that:

- Google has been around for 20+ years, so the concept of search engine and the technologies behind it should have been well known.

- Computing power and Internet speed has increased significantly and in many homes (at least outside of US) 1Gbps is norm.

- Everyone is talking about Google deteriorating over the years and prefer the old Google. The old system from the 2000s should be dirt cheap to run with modern home hardware.

- People's need for search engine is highly specific, you presumably would be interested in searching a small subset of the whole Internet.

My question is: why haven't a local run search engine be a thing at least in the tech circles?

It should be able to bootstrap with e.g. an hourly updated "top 100 websites in 50 categories" index file, and adapt to my daily queries to automatically update the index in the background, and iteratively improves the quality of the results.

The rise of the local LLM users proves this model works.

Uh, no? It was not built in secret before the AI hype.

In fact as late as Jan 2026 Google was proudly presenting their new data centers in Bangkok: https://www.googlecloudpresscorner.com/2026-01-21-Google-Clo...
