They likely won't. More likely, the devs will put these products in the most funny places (say, billboards on the side of the road in American Truck Simulator). They'll keep this thing running for ~5 years and they'll axe it.

Eggs are not that expensive outside the US. I hope the Italians know too well what to do with them.

A while ago, I was arguing with someone (if I'm not mistaken) about how AI is incompatible with politics, law and democracy due to the nature of the whole process involved in writing laws. Now I notice that this is exactly the point. AI's purpose has never been democracy. Democracy, as Peter Thiel and his followers argued, is an obstacle in the front of tech's development, in the front of profit, of capital. As such, the logic solution is to get rid of it - and that's exactly what Trump is doing.

It must be so exciting to speak about yourself

Yea, it does look like it's taking shape anyway. Are you planing to hold only books in that thing or something else as well?

That came out so nicely. Well done!

Gee! I wonder what happened that fresh water became such a commodity. Wasn't that because of "drill, baby, drill"?

Hmmm, that got me thinking: if you selfhost, you make sure you also instal ollama or some LLM you can also self-host. You don't need to use the LLM yourself at all. Then if something goes south, and you're accused of piracy, you can just defend yourself that you used all these materials to train your own LLM. That should get you out of trouble, right?

I didn't ask you how they shouldn't get it. I asked you how they should. Like, only one way. Because even on Android, the average user is not gonna use F-Droid and using an apk file is simply not practical for many. Sure, you get users, but if your goal is to make it easier for the majority of the people, they sure as hell will not download F-Droid just for one specific app. Besides that, it is also a market opportunity. I'm sure the devs of these apps also make some good money on these.

As for Apple... sure, there is AltStore, but how many people are using it yet?
