  • Roger that. Thank you for the clarification that you meant the actual term, and not just the fact of no mandatory payment and it having an the source available for public.

    I get what you mean, yet frankly, I do not believe such projects may be always free that are supposed to always be up-to-date for another system they have no official relation to, and keep it as a responsible hobby other people depend on.



  • It is free and open-source on Desktop at this moment.

    Keyguard is a commercial app and unlocking a premium funds its further development and supports me (Artem Chepurnyi) directly. As of right now, only the Android builds distributed via Google Play store have main features locked behind a paywall, other distribution channels have a build with everything unlocked.

    But it makes sense to pay for it, since Bitwarden is a constantly changing system and these projects based on it must always be up-to-date with their API changes, too. This is time and worry consuming, and should be compensated.



  • Air can simplify the agent part, but not the four-machine SSH part. At least not yet. Inside IntelliJ, Air can give you a single place to run Gemini CLI, Codex, Claude Agent, and Junie, including running agents in parallel (you can also add other ACP-compatible agents).

    So your workflow could be:

    1. In the Air prompt window, use Claude for a complex refactoring

    2. In the same window, use Codex for a separate implementation task

    3. In the same window, use Gemini for another task or review
      …

    4. Become more dependent on the AI, atrophy gradually

    5. Think less, pay more

    6. Pay more, think less

    7. Pay more

    8. Depend more

    9. Pay more

    10. Give everything to those who run DataCenters or have unlimited access to LLM/AI

    11. Become homeless

    12. Devalue and obliterate your art and history

    13. Devalue and obliterate human art and history

    14. Depend more

    15. Depend more

    16. Depend more

    17. Become biomass

    18. Die

    …so infinitely much is getting devalued, dehumanized, ruined…
    …I’ve been a developer for more than 20 years now…
    …such an ineffably sorrowful time to live…

  • The “generating” from already existing has a particle of a relatively explainable sense in it, unfortunately… to “de-copyright” it…

    Simply put, AI has made it easier than ever to launder image copyright infringement… That, in turn, is where AI is changing the game. Previously, content laundering was about fooling computers. Now, it may be able to fool humans.

    These two challenges converge on a single point: the need for transparency about what data was used to train a model. Without such transparency…

    Source

    -–

    The foundational principle is deceptively simple: copyright requires a human author… Writing a detailed prompt is not enough.

    The machines are producing at extraordinary speed. The law is moving slowly, but it is moving. The businesses that fare best will be those that understood the difference in time.

    Source

    Even though the models are based on “fair use” of now unknown artists and people, now scrambled and reconstructed… which is all utterly awfully disrespectfully disgusting… indeed…

    Also known as “AI-laundering”…

    1. Create or fund a non-profit entity to create the datasets for you. The non-profit, research-oriented nature of these entities allows them to use copyrighted material more easily.
    2. Then use this dataset to create commercial products, without offering any compensation for the use of copyrighted material.

  • Of course they do, absolutely.

    If it helps/supports/carries a disabled/invalid miraculous Individual, Person, Human to express themselves better, communicate easier, feel themselves more humane and alive, please do install and try it!

    Yet, at this point, I do not believe AI-driven tools for disability should be installed by default to everyone, as if suggesting all people are too disabled by default.

    Healthy People should be proud and appreciate they are not, and do get yourself together, and do better. We deserve to be better.


    Here, I do get what I mean, since I am myself physically mute, a car accident, which I rarely expose but recently mentioned:
    - https://gist.github.com/serious-angel/738ff60d2cab20ae35c02fd6d0499047 (Lobsters staff ruined my reputation, do not respond, and I have no idea why…)

    The mute trait is quite a challenge… and one of these is being constantly called out as “AI” or “bot” for my formatting or effort/time I invest into textual messages, I believe, in hope to stay more social…

    The most recent example at Lemmy:
    - https://lemmy.world/comment/26100133 (You’d think at these days, with so much of awful LLM/“AI”/noise, a dear humane attitude should prevail…)



  • Taking away the learning, the sense of progression and the very soul of things.
    I’m not convinced.

    Source

    Of course! Absolutely! Always!

    It’s impossible to be “convinced” by this utter narrow-minded, degrading, obliterating, permanently damaging sorrow…

    Art has meaning, weight, priceless value, the purpose… only when it’s of a human work…
    Regardless, whether it’s an asset, texture, shape, shader…
    This is all what is to be preserved in the history…
    Of the history of us, miracles, human…

    It would then have a Human’s name on it…
    Who lived, learned, experienced… and expressed their unique view in a work to pass further…
    The artist’s name may not be advertised, but it would exist and always possible to find to glorify…
    Since isn’t it one of the main purposes of Art? To achieve, experience, to express and learn from each other…

    Now, it has no name on it. It’s empty. It radiates with screams and cries in painful sorrow… of unknown effort and love now decimated and passed through an algorithm of shallow hopelessness at vacuumed void…

    If I ever see anything related to AI in any art-related subjects, I don’t even consider it but skip it - it’s a disgusting empty noise that does not deserve any human time nor effort.

    All these “AI” infestations are pure awful disrespect to our ancestors, the Human history… and our dear future…

    And I will never consider it. It would mean death to me, since there’s no hope nor purpose in it to live for.
