That there is no perfect defense. There is no protection. Being alive means being exposed; it's the nature of life to be hazardous—it's the stuff of living.

  • Introducing Lumo, the AI where every conversation is confidential | Proton

    Jump

  • Why does Proton come off as a vapid American technology company that leverages privacy themed keywords in their PR copytext?

    I say this as someone who has been using their email services for many years (I am a subscriber too).

    I also don't necessarily oppose a privacy focused cloud LLM from Proton. It's more the tone of the blogpost, the misleading service comparison table under "Compare Lumo with other leading AI assistants" and where their priorities lie.

  • The Astronomer CEO's Coldplay Concert Fiasco Is Emblematic of Our Social Media Surveillance Dystopia

    Jump

  • So this is what all this "kiss cam at Coldplay concert" is about. Pretty dull stuff.

    One thing to note with facial recognition and security cameras is that you can't put the genie back in the bottle.

    Another thing is that there are legitimate uses for extensive surveillance (catching spies, assasins and collaborators when your country is being invaded). While this is a somewhat extreme example, there are legitimate use cases outside of war time too.

    It's up to us as voters to elect governments that do not abuse surveillance technology.

  • How Apple’s iOS 26 and Google’s Android 16 Will Change Our Phones

    Jump

  • I agree. It also means that you can spend $300-$400 on a smartphone and it does everything without lag and at a high quality level. What's more, you can use it for 3-4 years.

    There are some niche use cases like specialist smartphone photography and high demand gaming where you might need a flagship, but IMO a relatively small part of the market.

  • How Apple’s iOS 26 and Google’s Android 16 Will Change Our Phones

    Jump

  • iOS has a design change, but otherwise there is nothing interesting. Smartphones have been around for a quarter of a century, both smartphone hardware and software are extremely mature.

  • Removed

    12ft.io down?

    Jump

  • Depends on the news site, in-demand US based articles get a full copy pretty quick. Somewhat more niche content can take time or it even never gets an archived copy.

  • A Prominent OpenAI Investor Appears to Be Suffering a ChatGPT-Related Mental Health Crisis, His Peers Say

    Jump

  • I believe this sort of paranoia and delusional thinking are extremely common with schizophrenia.

    The motifs in his word salad likely reflect his life experience.

  • A Prominent OpenAI Investor Appears to Be Suffering a ChatGPT-Related Mental Health Crisis, His Peers Say

    Jump

  • I have no professional skills in this area, but I would speculate that the fellow was already predisposed to schizophrenia and the LLM just triggered it (can happen with other things too like psychedelic drugs).

  • A Prominent OpenAI Investor Appears to Be Suffering a ChatGPT-Related Mental Health Crisis, His Peers Say

    Jump

  • It reads like "word salad", which from my understanding is common for people with developed schizophrenia.

    His text is more coherent (on a relative basis), but it still has that world salad feel to it.

  • Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket

    Jump

  • I am assuming this is US only? I used to fly Delta a lot when travelling between Europe and North America.

  • Exclusive: Google Helped Israel Spread War Propaganda to 45 Million Europeans

    Jump

  • That likely is true, but you don't want to use a source that is definitely compromised.

  • Exclusive: Google Helped Israel Spread War Propaganda to 45 Million Europeans

    Jump

  • Keep in mind this is an extremely shit source, they are basically a lite version of tankies.

    Try searching for "Russia" on their site and you'll find a 1:1 copy of standard russian propaganda copytext (justification for the invasion of Ukraine, claiming Ukraine organized a genocide in Donbas, white washing russian crimes).

    If they can't be consistent, it is likely their concern Gaza about is a ruse, as is extremely common among western "leftists".

    And the roaches that manage this site likely don't speak Ukrainian or russian and have never lived in Ukraine or russia.

  • PieFed.World is now open

    Jump

  • I guess we are sort of on the same page then. :)

  • PieFed.World is now open

    Jump

  • I have no issues with LW (and most other instance). I mod/curate multiple communities on LW.

    I definitely do not intend to "run down" LW (if I am understanding the meaning of "run down" correctly).

  • PieFed.World is now open

    Jump

  • Definitely. I've been on the Threadiverse for a while now.

    The problem is that ML is such a prominent instance and the lead devs are degenerate tankies.

    And I don't use the word degenerate lightly or as a generic insult.

    Claiming (without irony) that North Korea is good place to live and their political system has been discredited by a vast capitalist conspiracy led by the BIA is a sign of true degeneracy. It doesn't even matter if they are engaging in demagoguery or not.

  • DietPi is great!

    Jump

  • I have a Raspberry Pi 4B. Clients can directly play the media without any need for realtime transcoding. I could 4K transcoding being challenging for older Raspberry Pi SBCs.

  • PieFed.World is now open

    Jump

  • You most definitely can.

    But that doesn't change the fact Lemmy's devs are a bunch of degenerate tankies.

  • What would happen if I changed fedi server software but keep same domain?

    Jump

  • Very interesting.

    Didn't think such a "dirty" method of moving from Lemmy to Piefed would work

  • Apple Vs The Law

    Jump

  • The whole post in general is a good non-polemic piece on why we should not be using ICT services from commercial American organizations (the we includes sane Americans).

    We are dealing with people who are not capable of honesty.

  • PieFed.World is now open

    Jump

  • is something I’ve never seen in any other online platform

    It's not that common, but I've seen it in other forums. One example would be Somethingawful, it even has a comedic bent to it.

    I am assuming the modlog concept for lemmy was taken from SA.
