Sharing is caring

😄 Fair enough. Thanks for getting back to me

No but this doesn’t do anything to “deal” with the problem as anyone can built up trust like Jian tan showed. The argument that this makes us more secure is like saying closed source is more secure cause the hackers dont have access to the source.

We have evidence of the US messing with nist standards so by that same logic should we assume all us actors are bad ?

The solution is to verify the code maybe have multiple people from different locations have to review stuff. Build more checks into the process.

The whole point of it being open is that it can be reviewed. It shouldn’t matter where the contributor is from as all code should be subjected to a rigorous review process.

Same could be said for any intelligence service . it is better to focus on preventing and detecting these things through analysis and code reviews.

And they could just offer boatloads of cash to someone in another country to insert something so this doesn’t really prevent anything it only isolates a certain subset of people.

Just finished it today on yuzu, only issue I had was some of the coloring on the rifts in the overworld. I used the 18.1.0 firmware for anyone that wants to know

Not this again

I have a 2011 kindle, the silver one with no backlight . I got second hand from a friend and I use calibre on linux to convert books to the amazon format and copy them over via USB. It does the job but I have seen that these are like 20 ducats on eBay and other places if anyone wants a cheap option.

The UN troops have the right to defend themselves.

We have a deebot but its a dumber model, no internet connection no app no cameras. Just a remote with some rudimentary pathfinding and it does the job.

I would only trust selfhosted and foss stuff for anything in my home.

Do you take sugar in your own tea ? Do you even drink tea ?

I’m partial to honey in my tea.

I use brave search. I can generally find most things. They even have an answer with ai thing that gives some useful stuff when you want a specific quick answer.

I also use ddg.

Its a statement not support. They are resisting Israeli occupation. I’m not cheering for anyone to die and I don’t agree with it. In the same vain indiscriminate bombing is wrong too and has killed thousands of innocents.

To quote the article

At least 41,689 people have been killed and 96,625 have been injured in Israel’s assault on Gaza, according to Palestinian authorities. At least 1,139 people were killed in the Hamas-led attacks, according to an Al Jazeera tally based on Israeli statistics, and around 250 others were seized as hostages.

The death toll clearly skews to one side in a major way. What people here are saying is not that we support violence in any case, we do not, we are saying you can’t be surprised when they fight back when you look at the numbers. Israel could have entered on the ground and fought enemy combatants with a much lower civilian death toll. They targeted civilians first.

This is probably the only way left for them to have any form of resistance. Since the international community have largely failed them and with Daddy Yankee and the war machine in Israel’s corner there is no chance of conventional war even if they had the numbers.

These attacks create a culture of fear in everyday Israelis but if sustained it could possibly cause them to put pressure on their gov for a ceasefire and force Bibi out. Who knows, the whole situation is just tragic and has gone on for decades.

Maybe some day our species will realize the futility of war.

I imagine they have this stuff internally classifying photos and faces.

Im guessing Israel will retaliate without warning and with US backing.

I’m more of a “that” fan myself

They get loads in governments tax breaks and they data mine the fuck out of us so fuck them and their ads.

I’ll continue to block them as long as we can and then move on to something else if we can’t. By paying you are just rewarding this exploitative behavior.

If you simply must pay for something then donate it to a charity instead. These companies do not need your money.

Machines could be doing all the work. We could have clean energy , air ,water and food and shelter for all…
