Have you tried using Ladybird? The performance is unfortunately not very good. On the other hand Dillo loads pages instantly, even if most pages don't look right.

>The message, sent before Mr Verma departed Gatwick airport, read: "On my way to blow up the plane (I'm a member of the Taliban)."
>Mr Verma's message was picked up by the UK security services who flagged it to Spanish authorities while the easyJet plane was still in the air.
>A court in Madrid heard it was assumed the message triggered alarm bells after being picked up via Gatwick's Wi-Fi network.
I don't see what this has to do with Gatwick's wifi - presumably one of these agencies have their hooks in Snapchat somewhere, PRISM-style.

I found these notes very useful. They also contain a nice summary of how LLMs/transformers work. It doesn't help that people can't seem to help taking a concept that has been around for decades (kernel smoothing) and giving it a fancy new name (attention).
