Re:A farewell to Arc browser on Thursday October 22, 2026 @01:01PM (#50198096)
I was quite angry when they first announced that they weren't going to support Arc last year and refused to switch to their new 'AI-powered' Dia browser.

After a year to cool off, I gave Dia a shot. Despite wanting to hate it, I like the browser a lot. You can turn off the shit AI features, and it's a well designed and thoughtful UX.

As much as Josh is a tool, this is genuinely a great product and the team at TBC has executed really well.

Well, I was confidently wrong about that. I stand corrected, thanks for the pointers.
Pedantic cloud enjoyer here, the article should name this a pyrocumulus not pyrocumulonimbus - the nimbus part means 'rain-bearing' in meteorology, fire clouds don't rain.

I'm something of a cloud-enjoyer. If you're interested in learning more about clouds I'd recommend the international cloud atlas website. https://cloudatlas.wmo.int/en/home.html

Personal top three clouds:

- Nacreous clouds

- Altocumulus lenticularis

- Cirrus homogenitus (what a name)

Readme has a discord link claiming 25K online, might want to update that it's quite misleading.

If you were writing a promotional post for your new model, would you include benchmarks of a competitor that's spanking you across the board? This is marketing.

Ace step 1.5 is great, only 1.5b params so very easy to run locally.

Scam, don't click this.
What are you spending per user on API costs? 7 days free trial seems quite generous.

Feels a lot better when there is a simple Ui to cycle through the views, keyboard and mouse navigation locked on the y axis, and gaussians just look better. Pretty heavy though if the space is large.
