I have started liking #lumo LLM/Chat Bot from #protonmail, especially in Ghost Mode. It deletes the chat as soon as the tab is closed. This is suitable for asking trivial things that don't need to be stored for future reference and adding to the ever-increasing pile, as in ChatGPT.

I am going through a stressful phase, but one thing I am trying not to interrupt is my gym schedule. I am still managing to go every other day at 6 am for a half-hour to 45-minute workout. In the past, my gym used to pause first, which always had an adverse outcome. I am hoping that by keeping […]

If you're looking for a good-looking and straightforward #rss reader for Android, I recommend Capy Reader. It's minimal, very responsive, and clean. It's been a year since I started using it, and it's just amazing.
