How does this compare to something like openwebui https://docs.openwebui.com/ ?

And how did sheepdogging everyone back to the Democrats work out? We're here because Bernie pushed people back into the two-party system

I have a self-hosted AI system that works pretty well. I can interact with it via my phone, the shell, my IRC server, and I can verbally talk to it.

But I want to get it to remember things, so I need to start working on RAG or something. Eventually I'd like to be able to have it draft emails for me, and schedule appointments.

Oracle, Atlassian, Microsoft, AWS, Cisco.... So many choices, that I can't pick just one!

Ah, nice. I have a similar setup, I have a repo, and for each rc-file, I do:
cat shared/${general_config} ${machine_name}/${machine_specific_config} > ${rc_file_name}

So for spectrwm it does: cat shared/spectrewm.conf laptop/spectrewm.conf > ~/.spectrewm.conf

I've looked at i3wm, but I never used it, so I don't know. If I had to move to another wm, i3wm seems like the first one that I'd look at, since they seem so similar

I've been using spectrwm for over a decade https://github.com/conformal/spectrwm and have no plans to change

There's a fun movie about it: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/125414-the-final-member

Wouldn't that be getting rid of the libs?

I think this would be 'owning' the libs:
chown -R $(whoami) /usr/lib
