Thanks :)

Hi, thanks for sharing this news, but please post the release notes from the Mozilla website, instead of (or at least along with) a third party service.

As an alternative to an Android TV, you could look into the Plasma Bigscreen project. Run it on whatever hardware you have available.

Plasma Bigscreen is an open-source user interface for TV's. Running on top of a Linux distribution, Plasma Bigscreen turns your TV or setup-box into a fully hackable device. A big launcher giving you easy access to any installed apps and skills. Controllable via voice or TV remote.

I'm currently looking into Plasma Bigscreen as a desktop environment for an open source smart TV, it looks promising.

Just in case you use Docker, you should clean images and containers on disk. They usually live on the root partition and take huge amounts of space.

they host on AWS

You're supposed to host on whatever you want.

data collection & sharing practices

Fork it if you want, remove what troubles you.

I've tried it, very practical. It's a drop in replacement for OpenAI APIs, so you can work with other tools that use their models and API as back end.

1 line below, you can read

Tech companies have said scanning messages and end-to-end encryption are fundamentally incompatible. Earlier this month, junior minister Stephen Parkinson appeared to concede ground, saying in parliament's upper chamber that Ofcom would only require them to scan content where "technically feasible". Donelan said in response to questions about Parkinson's statement that further work to develop the technology was needed but government-funded research had shown it was possible.

In practice, I doubt this will have any consequence on encryption, as the title of this post suggests.

Check out localAI, an open source drop in replacement for OpenAI APIs, in particular the section about text generation. From here, you can load a model with a specific prompt, in order to summarize text.

uMatrix seems to no longer be maintained or useful with uBlock Origin.

This is the correct answer.

Yeah in the long run it's not really an issue, still each new website is a new guessing game of "what do you need to get working?"

Yes by itself it hardly breaks anything, but blocking 3rd party scripts and frames usually does. It's no big deal, you can whitelist what is needed.

Bazzite is built from ublue-os/main and ublue-os/nvidia using Fedora technology, which means expanded hardware support and built in drivers are included. Additionally, Bazzite adds the following features:

Proprietary Nvidia drivers pre-installed.
Full hardware accelerated codec support for H264 decoding.
Full support for AMD's ROCM OpenCL/HIP run-times.
xpadneo driver for wireless Xbox One controllers.
Full support for DisplayLink.
Includes Valve's KDE themes from SteamOS.
LatencyFleX, vkBasalt, MangoHud, and OBS VkCapture installed and available by default
Support for Wallpaper Engine. (Only on KDE)
Distrobox preinstalled with automatic updates for created containers.
Automated duperemove services for reducing the disk space used by wine prefix contents.
System76-Scheduler preinstalled, providing automatic process priority tweaks to your focused application and keeping CPU time for background processes to a minimum.
Customized System76-Scheduler config with additional rules and CFS parameters from Linux-TKG.
Uses Google's BBR TCP congestion control by default.
Input Remapper preinstalled and enabled. (Available but default-disabled on the Deck variant)
Helpful first-start installer provides an easy way to install numerous applications and tweaks, including installing CoreCtrl and GreenWithEnvy.
Nix package manager optionally available.
Waydroid preinstalled for running Android apps. Future releases will offer to set this up for you. (Not available on Nvidia builds)
OpenRGB i2c-piix4 and i2c-nct6775 drivers for controlling RGB on certain motherboards.
GCAdapter_OC driver for overclocking Nintendo's Gamecube Controller Adapter to 1000hz polling.
Out of the box support for Wooting keyboards.

The main consideration I believe is missing is the cost of the hardware where you will be hosting the server. Maybe you have a old computer lying around, in that case its not an issue of course. By the way 25$ per month seems a bit expensive, there are probably cheaper alternatives, just for the sake of comparison.

There are Linux distributions developped and maintained to be used without having to customize anything, and without any prior knowledge of how the OS works. Check out Ubuntu or Fedora for two good examples.

Hi, I think localAi is a good place to start.
