WhatsApp does appear to have some "business" account/API type stuff which I assume is scriptable. But I don't believe it's got a free tier for personal use (although I haven't personally looked).
It is always preferable to use WhatsApp to contact a business than calling up.
This is cool. I wish Signal had a bot API like telegram's.
I'm in the same boat, and have been meaning to try immich but slightly worried about migration effort. Should I import fresh into Immich or setup my existing photoprism as an external library? I think the former is probably correct, but the latter might be easier?
Anyone have experience with this? I haven't done much modification or album creation in photoprism, so am happy to start from scratch on that front.
This only happens in the UK in clubs that have a history of violence or drug use (often leading to harms and death) and is a condition of a license. This is nowhere near the universal experience here for showing IDs for entry.
Apologies for the youtube shorts link, but Liz Kendall was on LBC yesterday talking about VPNs:

I believe they're "doing research" into it, which basically means they don't understand how any of it works.
Huh, it works just fine in the UK. Wonder if they have different builds (or completely different apps) for different regions. Or maybe it's the GrapheneOS compatibility layer that makes it work? Not sure.
I knew it was owned by github, but this is the first time I've personally seen the release notes on github's blog instead of npm's.
Web-based IDEs like VSCode on github just had a 1-click github token stealing vulnerability: https://blog.ammaraskar.com/github-token-stealing/
You could argue this is probably on GitHub for creating a token here that gives blanket access to all repos vs a scoped token for just the repo.
I think this is by design. I think small independent new websites will cease to exist.
I'm generally supportive of bans like this, but I don't want it to come at the expense of the privacy of adult users. I fear this is the way we're going in the west.
Would be good to be able to select multiple points on the compass and have it tell me the best place for it (front and back garden)
Smyths toys is doing pretty well in my town, in an out of town centre retail park admittedly. It is situated in a fairly new retail park that got built exactly behind the old one where Toys R Us used to be. That got knocked down and replaced with warehouses. Must be cheaper to tear down and start from scratch than try to modernise after being vacant for a few years.
Town centre is lots of barbers, vape shops and betting shops. Few new independent bars and restaurants seem to be breaking through thankfully.
It does! Ollama provides a helper to launch it with the local model too: https://docs.ollama.com/integrations/pi
So you can do:
ollama launch pi --model gemma4:26b
I had the best success yet earlier today running https://pi.dev with a local gemma4 model on ollama on my m4 Mac with 48GB ram. I think pi is a lot lighter than Claude code.
That is interesting. In the UK they're both available pretty much everywhere, and they're some of the cheapest drug prices I've seen anywhere in the world... ~20p for 16 tablets or something.
Yeah thought it might be something like that, I just couldn't recall off the top of my head which one would get passed to the share context.
This is very cool! I too have been very curious about ATProto after reading Dan Abramov's blog posts on it: https://overreacted.io/a-social-filesystem/
One question, I tried sharing your site with a friend and the share URL is coming up as http://localhost/ which is strange and I've never seen before. Is this something that's possible to customise via meta tag, or is this a bug in my browser (Vanadium 147 on GrapheneOS)?
Thanks! I assumed simpler == faster, but my ignorance is showing itself.
I am using the model they recommended in the blog post - which I assumed was using MLX?
OK thanks! That's helpful. I ignorantly assumed simpler prompt == faster first response.
I have an M4 Max with 48GB RAM. Anyone have any tips for good local models? Context length? Using the model recommended in the blog post (qwen3.5:35b-a3b-coding-nvfp4) with Ollama 0.19.0 and it can take anywhere between 6-25 seconds for a response (after lots of thinking) from me asking "Hello world". Is this the best that's currently achievable with my hardware or is there something that can be configured to get better results?
I keep emailing my (Labour) MP about this, I suggest you do the same! I get the standard "protecting the children" response. I am not voting Labour again if this madness is still in place (or worse!) at the next GE.
Oh actually, sorry I lied. I recently switched to Vanadium as my default browser which is the modified Chromium instance that ships with GrapheneOS. Apologies
I think maybe TLS would work if you were to go to https://service.yourts.net domain, but I've not tried that.
Hey! The demo didn't work in Firefox. It said something about setting up the database then it crashed the tab.
You can use tailscale services to do this now:
https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tailscale-services
Then you can access stuff on your tailnet by going to http://service instead of http://ip:port
It works well! Only thing missing now is TLS
I didn't have to do any resigning or repacking apks. It just worked installed from the play store.
NatWest and Monzo work fine on my Pixel 9a running GrapheneOS. Community maintained list of supported banking apps here:
https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compa...
Google Wallet is not supported at all.
The UK is no longer in the EU; The UK is still in Europe and is very much European.
Here's a community maintained list of apps and whether or not they work:
https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compa...
This is linked to from the Banking Apps section on GrapheneOS docs: https://grapheneos.org/usage#banking-apps
Sample size of 1: my UK banking apps all work fine.
Yeah spot on. I think this is the only thing that's been announced so far: https://www.androidauthority.com/graphene-os-major-android-o...
This is similar to Deno Sandbox[1] which was announced a couple of weeks back. Apparently also something similar is done with fly.io's tokenizer[2][3]
