cosmic theming is funny (oh yes compiling 517 dependencies in rust just to put colors in qt programs) ...
Screenshot featuring the COSMIC Desktop Environment, showing a 3-color theme, with dark gray, low saturated gold, and a bare hint of toned down blue. In the screenshot there are 4 programs with 4 windows opened: foot, terminal emulator showing fastfetch script; Kate, advanced text editor with some example log file; Kooha, screen recorder with simple controls; COSMIC Settings, in the Appearance section.
COSMIC for now has limited theming available (well, the interface is really simple so idk what more colors would you shove in) and limited customization. There's COSMIC Tweaks but it only changes some panel and dock layout for now.

An illustration of a white girl with cat ears, long, white, tied up hair and blue eyes. She is wearing a light blue kimono with resemblances of a maid uniform. She has a long, upstanding tail. She has a necklace and a yellow pin with a white paw on top of it. She is wearing black sandals which contrasts with her white pantyhose.

A long, straight brown haired girl with drills on her sides of her hair held on arms, grabbing the long, straight white haired girl's neck. The first girl has brown eyes and wears a reddish or brownish sweater, a skirt and black pants. The white haired girl has cyan eyes and wears a cyan hoodie and a dark blue blouse or dress. She has cat like ears above her head, not attached to it, but floating on top of her hair. She also has an ahoge.
(That’s also why I see no point in using AI to, say, write an essay, just like I see no point in bringing a forklift to the gym. Sure, it can lift the weights, but I’m not trying to suspend a barbell above the floor for the hell of it. I lift it because I want to become the kind of person who can lift it. Similarly, I write because I want to become the kind of person who can think.)
This is one of the best quotes that I can grab from the page.
The second being:
Markus Strasser, an entrepreneur who tried to start one of those companies that’s like “we’ll put every scientific paper in the bag and then ??? and then profit”, eventually abandoned the effort, saying that “close to nothing of what makes science actually work is published as text on the web.”
and last one:
For instance, if you show humans computer code that has security vulnerabilities, they do not suddenly start praising Hitler. But LLMs do. So yes, I would worry about putting the nuclear codes in the bag.
The paper cited in it is amazing, in the sense of confusingly surprising. Gonna give it a read.
The thing I see LLMs more useful for is searching.
Imagine asking a robot where a book with certain contents is. I wish for that instead of a robot that does my homework, because I suck a little with searching.
I also saw them useful for science: putting all selected, finetuned scientific articles and papers into an LLM to see what it can do on a specific scientific field. So imagine my surprise seeing this is only doable for private associations, since there is nothing "good" on the public web.
ProtonDB Review, saying: Amazing game, runs great out of the box. HOWEVER, I wasn't able to test the online. This was because well... sadly nobody is playing this game anymore.

I haven't really checked but CPU usage on Teams while just being a member on a call is low, but using the camera with filters clearly uses more. Just checking CPU temps gives you more or less how much CPU is used by a program. So clearly it is just worst case scenario: using camera with filters on top.
My issue with Teams is that it uses a whole GB of ram on my machine with it just existing. It's like it loads the entire .NET runtime on the browser or something. IDK if it uses C# on the frontend.
I think only ChromeOS' Exo and KDE's KWin (cheating, since its just the kde screen locker) are the only wayland compositors with screensaving functionality. Which is just a picture slideshow.
Seems like no devs want to reimplement screensavers that are not just pictures.
