Silicon valley billionares all send kids to Steiner/Waldorf schools with no phones cos they know how evil the shit they shill is

Insert Linus Thorvald take on llms here

You guys are being literal luddites get with the times or be destroyed by those who have.

Who cares if it foes the job?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

Signal has so many red flags. You are required to have a phone number which is essentially ur real identity. They now have payments linked to real identities so much better. They used to federate with 3rd party servers but they killed that and all but wiped it from the internet. They try to shut down 3rd party clients. They don’t provide reproducible builds so we can’t trust the source. They received their initial funding from In-Q-Tel the CIA venture capital firm.

Every time someone tries to raise any of these issues they are immediately shut down and told that its all for a good reason and that we should trust it.

At minimum they have a full social graph of real identities with time-stamped message events. Sealed sender doesn’t negate this as signal knows ur ip address when u give them a message. They also know the destination of that message as that isn’t sealed. This is sufficient information to link sender and recipient and timestamp. That’s assuming the unreproducible builds don’t have backdoors.

It’s all got a slightly fishy smell to it.

Tldr: If u want actual secure messaging u should consider SimpleX

I’m so glad that lemmy is seeing a political shift to the right k really hope my comment bots helped that process

I unironically do this lol

All ur messages have a recipient address. All ur messages go though signal servers. You have an IP address that u communicate to said servers with. They know when and who you are messaging.

The US government has openly stated they killed people because of metadata and ur comfortable just giving that all away? U also didn’t address any of my precise exact points you simply made a vague deflection.

Not to quote myself but:

You don’t ask too many questions about signal cos the answers don’t make you any more confident.

There have been too many of these types of events related to signal. And it has so many red flags. You are required to have a phone number which is essentially ur real identity. They used to federate with 3rd party servers but they killed that and all but wiped it from the internet. They try to shut down 3rd party clients.

Its something u get in high trust society. This is the cost of soft on crime polices. In most places in Australia its just the norm. You fill up then go in and pay. I can see the downfall of my nation as they start introducing pay first.

I seem to recall when openai was literally paying people for child porn. Allegedly for the purposes training against it as a negative prompt

He’s pushing actual excrement out of his ass.

Source?

There is nothing desirable about having omarchy as a front entrance for desktop linux in the mainstream.

Its a reliable simple introduction that maintains the freedom of foss. People don’t care about the technicals as long as it just works.

This thin-ass AI generated veneer over arch linux

Linus himself has called anyone universally opposing AI a troglodyte. The whole point of FOSS is that it grants people liberty over their software. The exact liberty that he is practising.

like his political stance is the only thing wrong here.

Alright give me a breakdown of what is technically wrong. I’m open to a technical ncritique but that requires j actually provide one.

Fuck every wannabe tech influencer who pushed this garbage and all the noobs who keep acting like there’s anything of value to preserve by acting like it doesn’t matter that he’s a dipshit.

Elitist as fuck. Just cos we know how to use a command line doesn’t mean everyone does let alone even cares too. If their is nothing of value to preserve why you arguing against it? Why not let it prove itself valueless? The only reason you are seething over this is because it is providing value but simply in a way you don’t like.

The only thing I care about is achieving the goals I wish to achieve. The means by which these goals are achieved is irrelevant.

I am quite happy to be allies with anyone in area A and give zero regards for what they support in area B. I believe in ideas not people and if you are advancing the ideas I support I will support you in this endeavour.

Also he really isn’t a Nazi. He doesn’t want to genocide people. The word Nazi no longer has any meaning because it has been so eroded by people using it to describe anyone to the right of wherever the accusatory person.

Do u want Linux to win or do u want to virtue message. Who fucking cares what his political stance is he is pushing the frontier on Linux adoption. Take the fucking win and let him cook.

Stupid argument. Clearly information can be harmful. If you tell a deeply depressed person how to easily kill themselves is obviously harmful to that person.

The court will ask you if you know anything that may cause you to make a judgement based in bias not the law (or something similar). They are asking the question without asking the question.

Also the original source of a word or idea does not invalidate the word/idea. Fucking Plato invented feminism in the same chapter he argued for eugenics. Any rational person would agree that this source is not sufficient to disregard the entire idea. But by your own admission we have already established you don’t support rationalism.

I believe knowing this is an information hazard. In the sense that the knowledge of this operation is sufficient to dismiss you from a jury.

Controversial prediction: it will be the Republicans who eventually make socialised healthcare a thing.

Ohh and the right wants all those things (except Palestine they are divided on that) but for citizens only not for everyone.
