  • It's probably more of a replacement for Google than anything. IMO for stuff like this it isn't different than asking a forum and as long as you know that there's little room for fuck ups.

  • Firefox 149 adds built-in free VPN with 50GB monthly data

  • How much does your VPN cost?

    Also, whatever Firefox puts out there is not gonna be slower than TOR which has 3x the encryption and routing overhead of a typical VPN and also has no SLA guarantees at all. There's a reason a middle-ground exists between no tunnel and mega 3x tunnel, and there's nothing wrong with saving a few bucks if all you want to do is not be as profitable to data aggregators

    TL:DR; stop making shit up

  • Those people are not told anything otherwise and have no convenient access to alternative view points or reason to seek them out. There's a non-zero chance they'd gain an understanding and legitimately risk being outed from the social groups they've known their whole life. Visit small town southern USA and you'll see what I mean. Many republicans are, very sweet people that truly mean well. They're involved in their community and probably don't even have cable; they just receive local news over the air. This is probably part of the issue You're not going to see clips of these people, though, you'll only the see the occasional racist from a modern sundown town that will get a rise out of you, just like they only see that Pretti was armed to the teeth with malicious intent. Stuff like that always gets the most attention, even in the fediverse.

    I'm not sure what the fix is, but demonizing these people that are unknowingly the voting engine enabling this when they truly believe they're in the right will only exacerbate the issue IMO. They're victims of the same system we are, they're just steering the ship in the direction they think is right instead of rowing.

    I think this song serves to pull the blindfold down a bit and place blame on the government committing the violence in a way that doesn't vilify the ordinary people that were fooled by a professional fraud. It may be the only way people some people get an outside perspective without active effort, and at a community level instead of an individual level. This is important in reducing the social risk.

  • I am not your lawyer and this is not legal advice for you or anyone who reads this.

    Nextcloud encrypts data e2e, so your point there is misguided and not really relevant. You can't be compelled to provide a password/decryption key as long as it doesn't exist as physical evidence. This is why lawyers advise clients to use a PIN instead of face ID or fingerprints; biometrics, like all physical evidence, can be subpoenad.

    Self hosting services like matrix or email is a bad idea if you don't really understand what you're doing, like many other things. If you keep you stuff updated and are intelligent in how you structure your network there's not really anymore risk here than paying someone else to host it. If you keep you stack simple and follow best practices, code and configurations written by industry experts do most of the heavy lifting.

  • AI has had zero effect on jobs so far, says Yale study

    Jump

  • So, reading that study, I have a few concerns about how it was conducted and my concerns generally aligns with their findings. Primarily, their source for information is the payroll system of the companies studied, which in my experience is nothing more than an HR drone entering into the system what they're told to enter. If the prescribed reason is AI even when it was really business performance, then that kind of aligns with the study in the OP.

    Their graphs of roles most and least exposed to AI disruption is dandy, but if you think about it (with the exception of customer service roles) the jobs that are threatened are typically not production roles for the company, and are moreso ancillary positions for most companies. I'm a software engineer for a company that doesn't sell software, which means I'm more of a luxury than a necessity; this is true for the majority of software engineers.

    The roles least exposed to AI, according to the study, are production roles that play a core role in the product delivery of the company. Things like construction workers, nurses, cooks, etc. are only in businesses where they are the core of the business model. I've never seen a movie theater chain employ nurses or cooks in droves, but they have employed secret shoppers (auditors), accountants, software engineers, etc. and are likely to trim that fat when times get tough. I think this is more of an economic health indicator than anything, IMO.
