> The only software I tend to use today is a terminal and a browser

i'm exactly in the same situation. for this reason i run on dwm and no DE. but i'd like to phase out some of my web browsing, for the same reasons you mentioned. could you please elaborate on your local LLM setup and how you use it to substitute web browsing?

"Can you setup a daily job to monitor and download youtube videos from any channels listed in subscriptions.txt"

"Can you setup a daily job to search for any articles on supply chain attacks, format them as normalized markdown files and store them under Research/supply-chain ?"

"Can you go find me a good price on some used DDR5 ram from a reputable seller?"

Etc etc.

Use agents to bring the internet to you.

Can do basically anything with a Strix Halo board at home.

		interesting. i can definitely think of similar use cases. but can all of this be accomplished with local LLMs? do you run it on expensive hardware? are there specific models, agent frameworks and other tooling you recommend? btw as another strategy to avoid web browsing i've been relying a lot on content being delivered as email newsletters. seems like it would also be easy to process that using LLMs
