…I think you’re confusing GDPR and GPRS? Unless I’m being whooshed here

Never heard of that, thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Not really self-hosted in the typical sense, but Obsidian with the Tasks and/or Kanban plugin synced through a (self-hosted) solution of your choice could work?

Haven’t tried the whiteboard tool in Google keep (didn’t even know there was one), but the Excalidraw plugin for Obsidian should cover almost any whiteboard use case I can think of. A bit more limited but also good is the native Canvas plugin in Obsidian.

In it, researchers built a custom LLM trained to play a board game just by predicting the next move in a series of moves, with no input at all about the game state. They found evidence of an internal representation of the current game state, although the model had never been told what that game state looks like.

Windows: “Time for updates! Stop everything you’re doing and please wait…please wait…please wait…please wait…”

How am I hearing about this all the time, but it has never happened for me? Every windows update for me so far has always gone the same, unintrusive way - when it’s time to shut down the PC in the evening, I notice there’s an “Install Updates and Shutdown” option next to the normal “shutdown” option, which I use if I’m not in a terrible hurry right now. Takes a little longer to shut down, next boot will also take a little longer, but that’s it. I’ve literally never had these unwelcome interruptions I hear so frequently about.

For note taking, you might even get by without self-hosting, looking at software like Obsidian which works perfectly fine with just SyncThing to sync between devices, or just literally any other file syncing solution, self-hosted or otherwise.

It’s not only IPs and emails though. Since users can put whatever they want in comments and posts, all of those must be treated as potential PII, and have to be included in subject access requests and deletion requests.

Genuinely curious, why do you not like PWAs?
