This is a fun little project but I see no actual utility of react. I can't believe it's basically Windows XP, just created in a clean room obstensibly

Had not heard about that

Yup Tis a bubble.

Yeah cool. Tell me what does Amazon get in return by knowing that you tore down the extra wall between the kitchen and dining areas? They going to sell you something with this knowledge? No. All they "do" with it is allow their robot to vacuum that area. The horror. Having your device do its job. Lol

Basically every house and property near me has walkthroughs on realty sites. The layout of the walls in no house here is private or secret.

Definitely amazon. Never even once seen an add on my Google home display. Never

Here's a good tip. Pressing Ctrl-S will show the new dialogue box for saving, which includes OneDrive and Google drive locations. But if you press F12 it will save directly to your local file system with the classic shell common save dialogue box. Also, even saving to OneDrive still keeps a local copy on your drive so that you have it offline/disconnected/etc.

Google won't let you save a document in their word editor without saving it to Google drive.

Same. Or some sites like ars require a visit to read the full thing

It's so much better than the algorithmic feeds Google tries to steer us to like with the Google Discover feed baked into their launcher home screen on Android, or the Widgets board with the MSN "Start Feed" Microsoft pushes on Windows 11. Obviously both with sponsored clicks all over them. Plus neither ever surfaces much I hadn't already seen from the RSS feed of the sources I follow already. Like you said, RSS is the way.

Didn't know about that. Also I wish more sites would post their feed link. Many have an xml feed but don't post the link so you have to guess to find it

Only barley started to dable so no recommendations so far. Saw a few projects on GitHub but so far still going along with Feedly. I'm probably weird with my habits because I use Feedly constantly to browse headlines of what's new, but I always push things to Pocket or now Instapaper to actually go read later (rarely I'll read something direct on Feedly). That's a lot of pushing links around and gathering them up in another place but it's what I've got so far.

I currently use Feedly but have been considering a self-hosted solution. I already run my own url shortener for example. It's the only way I see slashdot posts and also all my other news and feeds and blogs. Big and small. RSS forever.

It'd go a long way

Gemini also uses like a gallon of water and spews a ton of carbon into the air every time you use it.
