I’m not sure how to read the Plexus entries, and they don’t seem to be clickable. Would you mind explaining how to use the site in a meaningful way?

Yeah, I just re-read your comment. I see now that mine didn’t really answer to what you actually said - sorry for that.

I agree with you, though. Unlocking the screen is useless when the user only wanted to quickly toggle a mode of connectivity or such.

Altering the prompt will certainly give a different output, though. Ok, maybe “think about this problem for a moment” is a weird prompt; I see how it actually doesn’t make much sense.

However, including something along the lines of “think through the problem step-by-step” in the prompt really makes a difference, in my experience. The LLM will then, to a higher degree, include sections of “reasoning”, thereby arriving at an output that’s more correct or of higher quality.

This, to me, seems like a simple precursor to the way a model like the new o1 from OpenAI (partly) works; It “thinks” about the prompt behind the scenes, presenting only the resulting output and a hidden (by default) generated summary of the secret raw “thinking” to the user.

Of course, it’s unnecessary - maybe even stupid - to include nonsense or smalltalk in LLM prompts (unless it has proven to actually enhance the output you want), but since (some) LLMs happen to be lazy by design, telling them what to do (like reasoning) can definitely make a great difference.

Could it be a security measure, to stop others from enabling it on your locked device, since enabled bluetooth might be a weakness security-wise?

Why not? Ideogram is brilliant at it!

If you connect to Jellyfin through Kodi with the JellyCon add-on, you can sync audio, subtitles etc. when it’s playing.

While it’s possible to navigate through your Jellyfin libraries from within the Jellycon add-on in Kodi, I usually find it quicker to just use the Jellyfin app or webapp on phone/pc to find the desired media, then “cast” it to the active Kodi client. The Kodi client will then play it directly from the server, no video data is going through the casting device.

I think that’s just their code…

But basic internet permission is given to all apps without asking.

But it really shouldn’t be! And GrapheneOS, at least, always asks the user when installing apps that want network permission. If the user doesn’t plan on using any network-based features of the app, they can simply decline.

CalcYou seems great, and it’s on F-Droid.

Any recommendable and trustworthy sources for modded APKs? Installing modded apps from unknown sources always feels a bit sketchy…

AnLinux (Run Linux On Android Without Root Access) https://f-droid.org/packages/exa.lnx.a/

This application will allow you to run Linux on Android, by using https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux and PRoot technology, you can even run SSH and Xfce4 Desktop Environment!!!

• Xfce4, Mate, LXQt, LXDE Desktop Environment Supported
• Install multiple distros without conflict
• Provide uninstallation script to fully uninstall distro

Kodi/LibreELEC + JellyCon add-on works great!

Since your app is open source, I think it would make great sense to either submit it to the F-Droid repo, create your own repo that people can add to their F-Droid client, or host the project in one of the places that are already supported as a source in the Obtainium app.

What does that mean? A beautiful shell with nothing valuable inside it?

That’s movements and genres, though.

Stop describing your paintings using sentences like “the Mona Lisa meets Monet’s water lillies”.

or

Stop describing your music using sentences like “similar to Bohemian Rhapsody but with drum rhythms inspired by Drop It Like It’s Hot”.

would be somewhat more like it.

These sentences, funnily enough, sound close to something I would write in experimental prompts for a txt2img or txt2music AI model.

there’s no alternative

Older cars?

Isn’t that what pizzerias and such often do, though, to get more customers in throughout the day? Where I live, a pizza for lunch is often like 20-40% cheaper than a pizza for dinner, and I think that’s actually alright.

Have a look at LibreELEC “just enough OS for Kodi” for the Pi - at least if you plan on using it primarily for running Kodi as a “casting receiver”. (LibreELEC even supports Docker containers as Kodi add-ons too, if you need the Pi to run more than just Kodi.)

• Kodi will natively play some types of links shared to it through the “Kore” remote app’s “Play on Kodi” in the share menu.
• Even more types of links are supported with the right add-ons such as YouTube links through Invidious add-on (or YouTube add-on with your own token), local broadcasters’ VoD content, some paid streaming services and many more but it’s a bit hit and miss…
• With DLNA enabled in Kodi, many more types of stream URLs can be extracted from websites and sent to Kodi with apps like “Web Video Caster”. I think this one has the option of routing the stream through the phone (which is only necessary for some types of streams).

Depending on your media consumption habits and requirements, it might not be the perfect solution, but possibly prettttty good one for a Raspberry Pi.
