Fair enough. Thank you for sharing a different experience.
You mentioned part of the issue; there are so many different services you don’t think of obviously. Of course, there’s mail, but there’s also storage and phone backups, maps, social media logins, shared documents and folders, photos, etc.
Absolutely the best way to do it is a little bit at a time. It’s definitely not a weekend project. But it is very rewarding and very much worth it.

If every browser and every piece of tech attached to them disappeared tomorrow, we would immediately reinvent them.
Having a program to display interactive information from a network is far too useful for communication. Websites are just code that is purpose-built for being rendered by browser software, and a network to exchange the code. Even when the internet was text-terminal only, people still created ASCII art, text tables, etc. There is technically software (such as word processors, ereaders, etc.) that can render webpages, but how would you connect to a site? How would you do anything useful? Companies would have to add those features to existing software. If you think Edge is a pain, wait until you have to surf the web in MS Word!

It can be very challenging to disentangle yourself from Google services. Once you start, it’s shocking how many different ways they hook into our lives.
But at least for me, it’s been absolutely worth it.

- Comment on How come Nurses are not bound by the same rule is a lawyer is to a defendant or a wife to a husband or a priest? If someone says something on their death bed why are we suppose to report? 2 weeks ago:
There is a conflict between confidentiality and mandatory reporting. The ideal of confidentiality is that anything you say in private that you don’t want recorded or repeated should be kept private. The ideal of mandatory reporting is that if anyone finds out about a crime a person has committed, it should be reported for the sake of justice.
The solution is that we limit both of them in different situations. Confidentiality is generally limited to those who have a crucial and necessary role in keeping information confidential. In other words, those positions or professions that are deemed essential by society and which require confidentiality to function properly. That’s lawyers, medical professionals, and in some cases, religious professionals.
Mandatory reporting is generally limited to those who are in a position that allows access to vulnerable individuals. That’s teachers, social workers, police officers, and sometimes also medical professionals or religious professionals.
Because those include some of the same categories, the law gets very specific and sometimes even contradictory in different jurisdictions.

As others have said, LLMs simply do not have such a potential.
On the other hand, we have fully mapped simple brains, so it seems likely that we may be able to simulate a complete human brain at some point in the distant future. You can download a nematode brain yourself if you want.

It really depends. I’d suspect if it cannot play a video, then it wouldn’t be able to serve it either. People are doing a lot more than this on Raspberry Pis.
