Sometimes you need a little love with your tech posts. It is a single non tech post. Take the love and keep it moving :)

How is Ollama compared to GPT models? I used the paid tier for work and I’m curious how this stacks up.

If people don’t know the trick above then they definitely don’t know what easy out is lol. It does work and is under rated.

Long as you beware that F droid apps could be malware or some other kind of bad actors. It’s a free range marketplace just be smart. Just because something is FOSS or open source doesn’t mean it’s free of bad stuff.

No idea but that is one I know about. Apparently the list keeps growing of these API calls being denied or flagged.

Already does. Some apps just don’t work. It’ll notif. And say Google api failed to validate login to your Google account. Example app EBay.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 2 weeks ago:
Now I get that 100 percent. Avoiding the task makes total sense, especially coming from students of all ages. I absolutely think critical thinking skills are foundational to understanding and knowledge and need to be practiced, learned so much more than they are.
I think rather than free range use of LLMs or any other tool there needs to be some guidance. I don’t think clogging the system with dumb laws will do it, and I certainly don’t have all the answers. But with the usage of GPT if it can be made explicitly accurate within reason, one can gain knowledge at an accelerated rate due to the speed it can process vast data.
Its awesome to see teachers, educators trying to evolve and improve the learning experience which we desperately need. So thanks for putting in the extra effort whether your rewarded or not financially. The real people the got failed, or generally care thank you for your efforts!

I’ve been to 7 different schools and the answer is horrible pipe lines. But the true answer isn’t so black and white. It’d largely dependant on area, class, state and local Govts. School fails people everyday, the govt and its systems fail people everyday, medical fails people everyday etc. Systems are perfect they just allowed humans to organize. Subsequently also disorganize.

Phones totally need to be reeled in. Stop making a Do it all device. Self discipline and responsibility have been guard railed for years. This 100 percent.

You gave them a task, they used their imagination to apply it, in a different way than you expected, by using a new tool which is a non traditional method you asked for but the task still got completed. They still loosely completed the task 30 times ahead of schedule by using their imagination on how to constructively solve your problem, utilizing a tool in their imaginary bag.
I don’t think it’s wrecking the system, the system fails people everyday. I think it’s changing the traditional paradigm. Maybe for the better, maybe not. Time will tell. I think ChatGPT is a tool in its infancy. It’s changing the way minds think fundamentally like for isntance critical thinking skills decline by relying on “AI” but it frees up the mind to grow in other ways to adjust to the new paradigm.
I think the true point here is fear from breaking traditional values. Humans have never accelerated faster with current technology thats with or without LLM usage.
- Comment on fake keepass repo on github 2 weeks ago:
I get that. Which is why anti virus and things are kind of common sense is what everyone usually says. Watch what you do and click etc. But your reply did not really address my question. What’s the average Joe version of the link you posted, as it was for advanced users.
- Comment on fake keepass repo on github 2 weeks ago:
That’s a lot of advanced shit, which can totally bork a system. What average user paths can we take program wise or etc?
Like a Linux mint user for instance who’s first stop is diving into a Linux distro of their choice and wanting to gain 80 percent of the gains with 20 percent of the hassle and maintenance.

- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Absolutely and this post has done just that. Which is exactly why I made the entire post to begin with.
I have a set of problems and wanted to try to solve them as resource friendly, open source, as possible. I will consider all tools for the job. Open, closed, what have you. At the end of the day the best tools for the job always wins.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Everything is by the book. It’s a family business. I have documentation of every single move that’s happened since my arrival, I’m in the financials and business customer and vendor relations. None of what your saying holds any water at all. You simply have misjudged the situation. Likely due to my poor explanation.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Thank you for the feedback. This seems to be the general consensus. What tech stacks would be good given the circumstances I’m now finding myself in. Personally I dislike Google and all that. But this is business. People need to survive and eat.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Right now the admin team is 2 people and mostly myself. The labor side is growing as work flows in. The whole reason I took this job is the stake in the company. Its been around for nearly 3 decades very well established and deep roots in the community. The key players are still in the business and industry tied. They have assets and a good crew. But no real internal structure and infrastructure.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Well the entire business has been ran analog for 2 decades. The problems I am trying to solve are the entire business workflow. Intake to outflow. They use Sage50 for accounting, vericlock to integrate into sage for time tracking software. Beyond that gmail for email. Nothing is connected, integrated.
Everything else business wise is up for grabs. The NAS and paperless was to start scanning in papers and mail and organizing it into something that isn’t piles of paperwork and a mess. Photoprism/immich was for hosting all the businesses pictures of projects, portfolio photos.
We need inventory management for tools to supplies. VOIP phone service which was planning to us FreePBX. They pay for a service Ooma but it’s terrible and 30 a month.
The goal is to establish a work flow for a manufacturing business. From scratch.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
I work at the business. In the office. Got a role change. This is on me entirely for now. Nothing I can’t back out of. That being said the point is to streamline and to simply the business workflow. It’s all analog and papers scattered and stacked everywhere for over 2 decades.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Noted. What are some closed source solutions?
The value they seek is to privatize their own data, run their own software free of subscription services and pricing, being bound by all the usual constraints of big corporations. Its a small business.

All the high school girls I’ve seen have gotten fat, more ugly, still thirsty and dressing slutty, partying but have fallen off the wagon of beauty or so it seems. Some still got it so to say but it’s definitely not the same. Health is wealth people. The younger you start or just avoid bad shit the better off life isn’t linear. Alcohol is poison. Smoking is poison. Edibles are safer but again nothing is good.

I find it weird that they are developing a personality to chat. It’s been saying things like that’s a whole vibe, or something similar. It’s off putting and not how I would expect an AI to respond.
- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 1 month ago:
It is and its not. You just have to know the limitations, some of which I mentioned. Try it for yourself and to a restore then report back you’ll understand it’s very cumbersome in some ways. Don’t expect to be able to wipe a phone and restore from backup like you never left it’ll get you closeish. In its current form its just a hassle right now. I have swapped several pixels and profiles. Having to piece your data back together for it to be complete again doesn’t sit right with me to be considered backed up correctly.
Its one thing to read the documentation and another to have experience in using the software first hand which is why I got downvotes, over time, daily those are the ones who have experienced what I mean. I just wanted people to be aware that it’s not the saving grace yet.
Imagine the real world use case of backups and maintenance which should be done as often as possible as to lose as little as possible. Phone gets broken, stolen, confiscated, what have you. Having reliable backups is the difference between starting over and continuing with what could be your entire life in this digital age.
