I mean I run one arch machine but have 10 ish Debian machines.

Sure but all these self hosted ais are still done by companies who used massive amounts of power and water to train it.

Because it was stupid to think it was an age thing.

It doesn’t. But you can get a watch that does NFC payments.

That is the worst about it. They have made it worse. Sure it might be able to “do more” but I don’t want the more I want it to be able to navigate to places by voice send a text and call people. Oh my God is calling people so bad. They are not in your contacts because it thinks I said something different.

I’m not going to lie I use AI. It is better then search for looming things up. And I have vibe coded a few niche things for myself.

Yes it is much much slower. Ask to navigate it says checking maps or something for a while then does it. Old way it just happened.

Like US companies? So what did Microsoft say about that?

That’s a bs comparison. You cannot login tonplonplex if they are down well you can but only locally and it isn’t the default. Also if Plex disappears yourself hosted instance is finished.

Never got apps to work cause GPS us just a signal.

Exactly. Why ruin going for walks because people have ring cameras or whatever. I can’t stop them not going to worry about it.

But why I still use digital music audio books and non one is spying on me using them. All self hosted and i “own” them.

No because why let i it ruin your life. Control what you can and what you can’t why worry about it.

They need to solve paying creators and also what happens when if they get big. How do they scale. Hate YouTube all you want it costs a lot of money to run it and I don’t see federated service replacing it. Also the fact everything us still up there I see that being hard in federation.

Netflix has the vast share of users. By a large margin so well they might technically not be a monopoly they are.

Sure think that way.

Its literally just a name and was a very popular name before Hitler. I don’t see why you would have to be named after him. Are all Josephs, peter, Paul’s,Mathews marks named after the bible. No they are just names.

You think anyone is going to jail for you and your 10 bucks a month or whatever the subsxription cost is.

I heard their quadrupling their lifetime membership.

The make more off of FAAS then lifetime sub’s. More of their users are FAAS users them stream your own.
