pinch and zoom doesn't really have to do with hn. All webpages support pinch and zoom. iOS-wide text enlargement isn't always a solution

I subscribe to this guy on youtube for local model stuff if anyone is interested https://www.youtube.com/@AZisk. I'm not affiliated and I'm not even a paying subscriber. But I like all stuff local.

I have Galaxy Buds Pro and I'm using this awesome client https://github.com/timschneeb/GalaxyBudsClient to disable all touches but sometimes the client isn't running in the background and the Music app just gets in my way, so this is great!

I don't think it should be local vs cloud AI. I think local AI should be treated as a separate product. local ai should do things that really don't need cloud AI, then cloud AI should be used as a fallback. That would reduce a lot of costs
