Oh. Old plastic is fragile. The battery door of my PalmPix is broken. Good thing there was a dispenser. A 3D printer could also help here after all. #pda#palm
A recent Stanford study showed that most AI models including Google’s PaLM 2 and Open AI’s GPT-4 don’t comply with the EU AI Act.
The Act recently underwent a vote in the European Parliament, garnering overwhelming support.

I finally got around to watching @theverge documentary on #Handspring and it was fantastic! #Palm and #Handspring were both my first mobile devices and this brought me right back.

I'm curious if it's a remake/port of something on another platform, because I'd love to know if it exists elsewhere.
