  • Kagi is announcing a AI Assistant.
  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 1mo ago 100%

    I phrased that wrong, in my first comment I was just poking fun at how companies are adding LLMs to everything for the sake of it, like:

    1. Add LLM integrations
    2. ???
    3. Profit

    And they aren't doing anything innovative either, they just act as a middleman between you and OpenAI/Google/etc.

    It looks like Kagi assistant is one of those rare cases where the LLM integration does actually make sense, but I don't think paying $15 more is much better than just opening chatgpt.com in a second tab

    Yeah, ik. I just said ChatGPT because there are more people who know what that is than people who also know the term LLMs

  • Logitech has an idea for a “forever mouse” that requires a subscription
  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 3mo ago 100%

    I just skimmed through the podcast so I might be wrong, but it looks like the subscription would only cover updates to their AI "features":

    '[...] is there a vision beyond “the software will do more for you” than just drive your mouse around?'

    [...] Should the mouse do more than just move the cursor? Absolutely. And it does that today, and I think similarly about being more productive with shortcuts to the large language models and all kinds of other things. The guy that I met at a barbecue over the weekend who has programmed 120 shortcuts on his mouse, that’s the kind of stuff that can extend human potential in ways that are healthier.

  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 3mo ago 100%

    Yeah, apparently the subscription for the mouse would be on top of the upfront cost. I'm honestly baffled that Logitech's CEO thinks anyone would buy it, this feels like an april fools joke

  • Logitech has an idea for a “forever mouse” that requires a subscription
  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 3mo ago 100%

    This is so absurd. The only updates peripherals need are firmware bug fixes. And it's a standard that these updates are free. Having subscriptions for hardware is kinda dystopic tbh

    From the podcast:

    Some only have a mouse or only a keyboard, but many of them have both. But the thing that shocked me was that the average spend on that globally is $26, which is really so low. This is stuff you use every day, that sits on your desk every day, that you look at every day. That’s like the price of four coffees at Starbucks or less than a Nike running shirt. There is so much room to create more value in that space as we make people more productive — to extend human potential.

    You know why on average people spend so little? Because a mouse is just a mouse. It doesn't need to do anything besides controlling the cursor. It doesn't need a "dedicated AI button that launches Logi AI Prompt Builder" (which is just a ChatGPT wrapper btw)

    I don't want to be that one person that just complains about capitalism under every post, but things like this make it hard. We have already perfected the design of a mouse. But every year publicly traded companies need to make more money than in the previous year, so let's add subscriptions to everything. And also AI, because investors love it

  • People who are 1s and 2s on this scale, do you watch adult video?
  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 3mo ago 100%

    TIL about aphantasia

    Anyways, I'm between 1 - 2, and I just wanted to say that just bc I can visualize things in my head doesn't mean I don't enjoy seeing things with my eyes. If I was good at drawing, I definitely would draw my OCs and such

    But no, I don't watch adult videos. I just don't really like nsfw. Maybe I'm asexual or smt, idk

  • It's time to stop thinking plastic phones can't be premium
  • 2kool4idkwhat 2kool4idkwhat 5mo ago 97%

    FINALLY someone gets this. I don't care about the "premium look" whatever that means, I just don't want my phone to break when I accidentally drop it. Which is why I always put a case on my phone

    In fact, I'm pretty sure phone manufacturers started putting glass on the back of phones specifically to make them less durable so that customers buy a new phone sooner

    I've wanted to install an extension from outside addons.mozilla.org, but Firefox didn't let me do it So I've did a small research and looks like there are 3 ways to sideload extensions, but all of them suck 1. Using FF Developer Edition In the Dev Edition you can set `xpinstall.signatures.required` to false in about:config, but the problem is that the Dev Edition isn't as stable as standard FF 2. Temporarily load the extension In `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` you can temporarily sideload extensions, but they will be removed next time you open FF, which is annoying 3. Modify FF code Lastly, I found this [script](https://gist.github.com/TheBrokenRail/c43bf0f07f4860adac2631a1bd9e4136) which modifies the FF code, but this can break things so I don't want to use it I'm really annoyed that Mozilla gets to decide which extensions I can install. So... what's the best way to sideload extensions? Edit: thanks everyone, I'm now using a FF fork (Librewolf) which lets me sideload extensions after disabling `xpinstall.signatures.required`
