I've been using it and so far yeah, a lot of the existing functionality and new functionality is effectively free and it generally only nags you when you use the clearly separate "Canva AI" panel.
Checking the settings also tells me that Segmentation (used in Object Selection) is provided but Depth Estimation (used in Portrait Blur and Select Sampled Depth tools), Colorization (used in Colorize filter, apparently intended to colorize B&W photos) and Super Resolution (used in Super Resolve filter) are all paywalled.
Honestly, I think that's fine. While I'd wish these are all available (and they could be if you looked hard enough for models that can do this) for a flat price (for parts that are not handled server-side), this is still imho mostly fair.
I have a similar setup in Todoist, it's just a reminder for scheduled recurring tasks like bills.
Funnily enough, I was quite savvy with the features several years ago but as my work changed and things aren't as easy to list down like a routine or in neatly defined projects and such.
And when regular tasks becomes freeform, it's no surprise that a plaintext file is sufficient.
I've tried the CLI app. A few warnings to those who'll want to do the same:
- The app didn't have any updates since July 2024, then got a handful of commits last June and no recent commits ever since.
- I've tried to calibrate with it and managed to discharge but failed to charge back up. It's not a big deal since I could force it back with a `battery charging on`.
So it works, but it has some complications to keep in mind. Apparently [someone forked it](https://github.com/js4jiang5/BatteryOptimizer_for_MAC) and aimed to fix some of the issues, but the fork is err, opinionated and may or may not be ideal.
> quickly test and run different models in the cloud that you could run locally if you had the correct hardware.
I feel like they're competing against Hugging Face or even Colaboratory then if this is the case.
And for cases that require strict privacy control, I don't think I'd run it on emergent models or if I really have to, I would prefer doing so on an existing cloud setup already that has the necessary trust / compliance barriers addressed. (does Ollama Turbo even have their Trust center up?)
I can see its potential once it gets rolling, since there's a lot of ollama installations out there.
> Masaki had the idea to register a three-diamond trademark, along with the "Mitsubishi" name, which means 'three diamonds.' (It may surprise you to learn that this was ten years before the much better-known Mitsubishi Group of heavy industry companies registered its name and identical mark. Mitsubishi Pencil has no connection to the numerous other Mitsubishi companies in Japan; it is and has always been a manufacturer of writing and drawing supplies.)
Well, I learned something new today. I always thought the pencils were part of the group but apparently they're not.
Seeing the iconic three diamond mark along with the name always made me think the pencils were related to the cars.
Upon learning of a third Asahi branded thing, I once made the observation that Asahi must make everything. There's Asahi Pentax cameras, Asahi beer, and now this forgotten other thing. At which point someone kindly informed me that Asahi means rising sun, and seeing it in a company name is roughly equivalent to seeing "federal" or "national" in a US company name.
Nobody could blame you, Japan famously does have conglomerates making completely different products under the same brand. If Yamaha makes motorcycles and pianos, why wouldn't Mitsubishi make cars and pencils?
I think the poster is referring to "Brand Indicators for Message Identification[1]". A new(ish) protocol to display branded avatars for messages in email clients.
Yes. We’ve had black-and-white low-resolution images in emails using the X-Face header since basically forever, and the Face header (allowing color a image) since 2005. The whole deal with BIMI is, purportedly, that the logo shown can be relied upon to not be faked, since each sender gets issued a (very expensive) certificate to sign e-mails with that logo. This certification (incidentally issued by all the old X.509 certificate issuers, whose business model imploded by free certificates from Let’s Encrypt and others) are reportedly based on verification of (visual) trademarks. But if, as in the linked article, different companies can have the same logo even if their name is the same and they are in the same country, then the supposed security of the BIMI logo is an obvious scam.
After seeing this and the stories after this comment, I... can relate to this.
I went from being unorganized to somewhat organized, then went back and now it's a case of "I'll keep things organized when it makes sense, but the rest is up to my memory, the natural way of doing things and wherever I left it."
I'm just going to try the next thing, see and adopt whatever works, but if it doesn't, I'll just stick to whatever does.
At the end of the day, it's up to our brains on whether to use systems or not and if they fit our needs or if it doesn't.
As someone in the security industry, I find it amazing how much we've told people (in awareness training) to "not click things on the thing-clicking machine™" while simultaneously having processes like password resets that require doing it.
Fake password reset links are also a common attack vector, so yes people are told to be also cautious of those.
Otherwise it's been a while I haven't seen an reset link instead of a reset code. Copy/pasting is not much of a hassle, and it works even if the mail is checked on a different device.
The only real link I had to deal with were app callbacks that were explicitly labeled as such (with instructions from the app to explain what to expect)
Be careful of those as well, but in this case it's quite simple: password reset links should only be sent when the user explicitly requests them; of you receive an unexpected email asking you to reset your password, don't click the link.
Ok. So now my users get random login links for sites we may or may not use… sure, you Silicon Valley Cool Guy aren’t going to fall for it, but my blue collar Detroit UAW guys might.
Click that stupid magic link for a service we use, and they’re asked for their Office 365 credentials… all the while I’m telling them not to click links in emails.
I worked around this problem by adding an entry in my password manager with a username of "OAuth: Use Google" or something like that, so I'm informed when I habitually check my browser extension or when I attempt to auto-fill during login.
It's inelegant and could be better, but good enough.
If you use a password manager (and my condolences to those who don't), there's really no benefit to using OAuth over an email sign up. It can prepopulate your personal information, but I usually don't want that for the services I sign up for.
There's a couple of services where I prefer to use github for sso because I need them to integrate with data stored there, and it makes sense to me to "bundle" those accounts. But that's very much an edge case.
Is this where I complain about companies that insist I install their MFA app rather than just letting me use Google Authenticator? You're not special.
It looks like a multi-purpose utility in the terminal for bridging together the terminal, your scripts or programs to both local and remote LLM providers.
And it looks very handy! I'll use this myself because I do want to invoke OpenAI and other cloud providers just like I do in ollama and piping things around and this accomplishes that, and more.
I guess you can also accomplish similar results if you're just looking for `/chat/completions` and such if you configured something like LiteLLM and connecting that to ollama and any other service.
