gemma is also just way faster. i dont wanna wait 10min to get a 5-10% better answer (and sometimes, actually worse answer).

best is to use your own model router atm, depending on the task

flash is the fast (duh) model though. its not always beneficial to use pro. in practice: 1/ set to flash 3.1 ; 2/ force to pro...sometimes. mainly when the cli fails to predict what model to use.

note that it will sometimes fall back to flash 2, which sucks

zobzu — Mon, 04 May 2026 05:02:51 +0000

even 900mhz sux vs 433. the lower the better it penetrates matter for the same amplitude.

lower than 430 you start to run into severe bandwidth issues though. and its not allowed to transmit lora/dss on 430 in the us without license hence the 900mhz

at 2.4ghz the real world usage is limited. might as well use wifi. the only advantage is short range bandwidh while keeping lora compat.

"TUI" is for people who cant learn text commands: looks pretty, easy to use, not flexible and not powerful. just use a GUI already.

so if China has the data good, us has the data bad, got it lol.

us actually has laws around this and they arent sharing very much with thr us gov today. china shares 100% as required by law. and neither care much about "how long do i cook eggs for", but they do care about code generation a lot.

I know it's the norm to criticize the admin, but I don't think its what they're saying. I think they're saying "they know of the vulns they leave in and only fix them after it's been exploited by their states".

Not that any consumer router is super nice and safe, honestly, you're better off making your own these days.

same here (ex G and all that jazz). but in practice it means I use gemini for a lot of stuff, just not code. Claude wont try yo one shoot complex stuff that Gemini will + but claude will reliably produce what you expect.
