I use this setup as well. I've written an alias for bwrap which only gives the agent access to the current directory and read only access to the docs.

It has read-only access to my binaries, and I worry which programs I have might be a fingerprinting issue. I've thought about mounting a alternate /bin which using a docker image. (docker export)

Have you managed to setup any firewall or protection for the API keys? I know this is out-of-scope for bwrap.

edit: Maybe https://github.com/rootless-containers/slirp4netns could work

The second point is funny. I don't think not using air conditioning due to energy use is why Europeans don't have AC. (I'm European). It's beacuse it's expensive and difficult to retrofit. And we are getting more AC, lots of new buildings have it.

I agree with the article that Europeans should install more AC and that worrying about climate change isn't a valid reason not to. But this isn't because I don't beleve in climate change, it's because I don't agree with the idea of a climate footprint, and that people should worry about their own energy usage. They should worry about energy generation and green energy policy.

The rest of the article is either racist or ridiculous.

Gondolin gives you that. Lightweight micro-VMs (QEMU by default, optional libkrun backend) boot in under a second on your Mac or Linux machine. The network stack and virtual filesystem are implemented entirely in JavaScript, giving you complete programmatic control over what the sandbox can access and what secrets it can use.

It would be beneficial to not use youtube links for things like QR codes. Since the content of youtube videos can't be changed once they're posted, you risk linking to old information.

https://cew.georgetown.edu/about-cew/ looks like something you'll put on a poster. But you may also want to update the video. So you can use a redirect you control, not a youtube link.

That's my explanation for why these redirects exist. But why the intext's contain "Go to channel Hook Global.", I have no idea. Maybe SEO thing, or even prompt injection?

Edit:

I don't think this is anything to do with Hook Global. I think that google has indexed the suggestions in youtube. For youtube, the intext is normally just the description of the video. But with a redirect, it seems to use the suggestions.

"Go to channel BBC News" -site:youtube.com

Also has some(not as many) of these links. I don't think BBC are doing some dodgy SEO.

For people who saw this and might want a recomendation, I like running a tiny qwen model with llama cpp. Qwen2.5 coder 0.5B or 1.5B (not the instruct version)

On a modern-ish GPU these should run really fast with little latency. They cost nothing and don't send your data to anyone.

The plugin is just part of why OsmAnd is good for nautical use, there is also an alternate view in the configure map menu for nautical use.

I'm running llama-swap in a docker container with nvidia container utis to pass through the GPU. This then runs the correct llama-server command to provide the model I want. I have a folder full of guff s I mount in the container.

But this could be done with just llama-server normally. I don't use any special command, just ensure that it's using the GPU. I've found the default fitting to be good.

From memory:

llama-server -m models/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf -fa on -c 128000

I should try gemma4 more for coding, since qwen3.6 and gemma4 came out I've focused on qwen. For earlier releases I found qwen was smarter, but gemma had more knowledge. But for coding I always want it to learn how to do the task, not just assume/halucinate.

I don't understand the talk about how expensive the hardware is. These models can run on very old or old and low end. I've been running Qwen3.6-35B Q4 on an old 1080 GPU(8GB vram) with 32GB sys RAM. I have a i7-12700.

It does about 30 tok/s which is enough for me. It's about half what the online models do, but it's enough.

I've heard their 9B models are also good, but they aren't much faster if you have the ram and a nice cpu.

These qwen3.6 models are the first ones I find can do much. GPT OSS was good, and Gemma4 is better. Gemma knows more facts, but qwen3.6 is smarter.
