I have nothing against remote work but come on, COVID ended three years ago. If you still refuse to return to the office, then you’re just being lazy at that point.
Sounds like someone is mad that security experts would rather trust a tried-and-true encryption standard over Telegram’s encryption which is known to not be anywhere near as secure as the Signal protocol.
Pavel resorting to outright slander to promote Telegram is not something I expected to see.
As unfortunate as it is, the only way privacy search engines will survive is by adding AI. Brave recognized this early on and implemented it very well, so I’m glad to see DDG seems to be implementing it well also. Hopefully Startpage catches up because even though I almost exclusively use Brave Search, I do enjoy Startpage as a secondary source.
Another day, another Microsoft fail. This is what we get when a sub-par software company decides to focus more on AI than on developing an actually usable product.
Looks great! I’ve been rocking Strawberry for a little while now since I decided to finally retire Winamp, but this looks like it might be better in terms of the UI!
Because it’s a centralized system owned by a sociopath billionaire gathering unchanging, personal details about swaths of the population using ye olde “for the greater good” adage as the justification. You’d have to be a special kind of fool to go along with it.
Right… that’s what I’m saying. Under the fifth, they can’t compel you to unlock your phone if it’s protected by a PIN or password and if you set it to factory reset after a bunch of failed attempts, they can try but it’s unlikely they’ll break the PIN/pass in a few attempts.
It’s protected under the fifth. Even so, requiring a warrant to get your passcode is far better than not requiring a warrant to demand biometrics. Either way you slice it, passcode > biometrics.
There have been instances where judges ruled in favor of them being protected which sets a legal precedent. The SCOTUS probably won’t get involved unless a major lawsuit or federal-level case occurs.
Either way, passcodes are superior. Not sure why you’re arguing this.
I didn’t mention the others. It’s simply that this current “administration” has been a disaster in literally every way so it’s not surprising they’re trying to end our constitutional rights.
I really want to use AI like llama, ChatGTP, midjourney etc. for something productive. But over the last year the only thing I found use for it was to propose places to go as a family on our Hokaido Japan journey. There were great proposals for places to go....
Almost nothing. I sometimes use it to rephrase a question or answer. I refuse to become dependent on AI or contribute to it more than I already unwittingly have.
