Some of these are extreme, but what you're talking about is the https://512kb.club/, just keep it small, but no limits on what you can use.

There is definitely a balance between self worth and pragmatism in that comment, but being self aware enough to recognize it pushes me toward believing its pragmatism. Maybe that's just a reflection of my own self though.

AI or "algorithm" upscaling fundamentally creates something out of nothing. That's what upscaling is, so it is generative because its quite literally generating "guesses" at what should be there, pixel by pixel.

Its literally the trope in movies where they're reviewing grainy security can footage and someone says "enhance" and its magically a crystal clear image. Its just that we have technology to do that now.

I'd agree there's a semantics argument that using AI for upscaling is different than creating new, but its just that semantics.

Curious what you do that 100/hr isn't a good use of time, because that sounds like something I'd like to learn about.

It's ok to think recall is invasive and bad for privacy, but it isn't even released yet. If you're gonna hate something and drag it through the mud, do it for real and valid reasons.

Thanks! I agree some of what's needed are more lurkers to vote up the little content that is posted, to get more folks posting.

The reality is that you can't. So accept that going in and realize your learning will be iterative.

You'll be overwhelmed, that's OK. Copy paste code until you get something working. Here's the key. At that point stop, go back and understand the code you copied, why it works, and then try to rewrite it differently now that you know what worked.

Metaphor for writing. Start with a quote, then paraphrase it. Do that enough and you'll start to be able to adlib and come up with your own solutions.

Some might even call that invention a train.

Delayed start, but from your phone, via their totally-not-tracking-infested app. That's why it needs wifi.

Not sure if I need the /s but here it is just to be sure.

While I completely agree with you about electron, I still don't have to enjoy the fact that companies are outsourcing their lack of development in native tech to my wallet in terms of wasting resources on my device. Now perhaps the cost of the associated services would be higher if they had a native app which is a fair response. I still don't have to like it.

I see what you did there.

I'm way out of the loop, but is the issue that they actively make it difficult to use the rendering engine or is it that the cost to modularize it isn't worth the payoff to Firefox itself? A subtle but important distinction IMO. I always felt it was the second, but maybe I was being dense?
