Want to capture Claude Opus‑level reasoning on a machine that wheezes opening a browser tab? There’s now a surprisingly effective workaround-and it runs entirely on your own hardware. Claude Opus 4.6 is the sort of model that feels like it has digested the internet, argued Supreme Court cases, and debugged three different codebases before breakfast.…

Pavel Durov is warning that what many people think of as “deleted” messages may still live on in places they rarely consider: push notification logs and other bits of device‑level data that sit outside encrypted chats.
