If someone other than me presses the “Allow Once” button then are they a co-author?
There is a flood of Linux-based TUI and/or utility apps that are clearly AI product and I’m conflicted because it’s great to see additions to the Linux ecosystem but disheartening that they’re all mostly garbage.
The Reddit app on iOS sucks ass. Also, the iOS keyboard sucks ass. Is there anything good anymore?
Ken Burns American Revolution is amazing and going to be massively polarizing. But not as much as Ken Burn - Electric Light Orchestra
