Still just on the first step, embrace.

Apparently threads didn't support federating replies (comments) on posts until this.

And you still won't be able to reply to the federated comments on posts, just see them.

They are really not in a hurry to properly support federating. I honestly didn't realize Threads' federation support was this pathetic.

Modern ADSL and VDSL can get you pretty far... But they don't hold a candle to fibre.

I think OP is looking for a desktop application, not a selfhosted cloud platform.

Yuss. My life can finally have some more blue plate specials in it.

"Haha, lol, know that cool sci-fi cautionary tale? We should do that, but irl!"

No, raw audio from the controllers mic only!

Apple's "private cloud" is a thing. Not all "Apple Intelligence" features are "on device", some can and do utilize cloud-based processing power, and this will also be available to app developers.

Apparently this has additional safeguards vs "normal cloud" which is why they are branding it "private cloud".

But it's still "someone else's computer" and apple is not keeping their AI implementation 100% on device.

There's also the fact that they can't tell reality apart from fiction in general, because they don't understand anything in the first place.

LLMs have no way of differentiating fantasy RPG elements from IRL things. So they can lose the plot on what is being discussed suddenly, and for seemingly no reason.

LLMs don't just "learn" facts from their training data. They learn how to pretend to be thinking, they can mimic but not really comprehend. If there were facts in the training data, it can regurgitate them, but it doesn't actually know which facts apply to which subjects, or when to not make some up.

No it isn't, I didn't claim it was, and Valve is doing a good bit more than mere pre-configuration.

Valve is contributing efforts to improve Wine, DXVK, VK3D, shader-cache management, and making their use simple and easy.

If I figure out how to use Bottles, then in a literary sense it is completely correct to say: I figured out how to run windows software on Linux.

The sentence doesn't suddenly become false if I didn't write every line of code, from kernel to compatibility layer, that my PC is executing to do it.
