Falco's Jeanny and Coming Home.

After living for thirty years in oceanic climate, and now the last two years in subtropical and tropical climate. I definitely prefer tropical. It's nice to never worry about being cold and not needing a dozen layers.

Nothing big but couldn't ask for anything better. Had something nice to eat. Listened to some music. Went for a swim at midnight and watched the fireworks drifting on my back, a couple of hundred meters from the float where it was launched.

Not connected to the grid. For my personal electricity use I'd be fine indefinitely with solar.

Perchance just lets you interact with an LLM. Which, simplified, is just predictive text / autocomplete on steroids. The model sees a wall of text (your conversation history, whatever you put in the settings, character fields etc) and evaluates what the most probable next words / half-words / characters might be, based on the gazillion texts it was trained on.

It does not have sources to show you, or a list of URLs to give you to explain how it came up with stuff.

If you ask for a link (i.e. the wall of text ends with a request for a link), it will continue the text by writing something that looks reasonably like a URL that fits the preceeding bits of text.

Much of what the model generates may be factually correct if the training set included enough of that kind of information (making it so "yes" seems like the most probable continuation to a text ending in "does the earth go around the sun?") but you'll always have to verify what an LLM tells you because most models (even the expensive ones like ChatGPT or Claude) will just as confidently state complete bullshit and pass it as truth. After all, you're just getting the statistically most plausible text to continue what came before. There's no "awareness" of knowledge or facts, just statistics.

You most likely also don't have a model with "internet access" unless you added some custom code. And even then, that usually only grabs a URL from your message and puts the text from that page into the wall of text (not youtube videos, unless you link directly to a transcription) alongside your conversation history before making the model generates the next bit of text. Searching the web would require you again to add custom code and to set up access to an API that allows searching the web.

Living off solar and batteries, I'd get to work fixing it.

Did you actually read the "controversy" section?

A malicious adware media player - not related to Tampermonkey - installed Tampermonkey on your device to do bad stuff. And they could have done the same with any other userscript extension, like the suggested Violentmonkey. The wiki section even states:

This does not mean that Tampermonkey is malicious, but rather that a malicious program is utilizing a legitimate program for bad behavior

It's fine to advocate and promote open source software, but why do that with lies and slander?

Jouvay and The Grenada Chocolate Company. Both export, I believe. So might be available where you are.

Small grower-manufacturers that make bean to bar chocolate. Also has the advantage of higher quality chocolate that keeps the natural cocoa butter instead of adding milk.

So imagine you're working for a real slave driver

And at least in most of the nations' navies, your life as a grunt was pretty much like that. Dragged into service by press gangs and treated like shit.
