If people are here to receive recommendations, I’m preaching to the choir. But responding the question directly, a computer of my own. Being able to go online or work on digital stuff whenever I want to has changed my life for the better.
I can’t see how AI can’t be done in a privacy-respecting way [edit: note the double negative there]. The problem that worries me is performance. I have used texto-to-speech AI and it absolutely destroys my poor processors. I really hope there’s an efficient way of adding alt text, or of turning the feature off for users who don’t need it.
Hi! Our engineers have conducted a thorough analysis of this threat, reconstructed it experimentally, and tested it on Proton VPN. We concluded that:
the attack can only be carried out if the local network itself is compromised
our Windows and Android apps are fully protected against it
for iOS and macOS apps, you are completely protected from this as long as you’re using a Kill Switch and a WireGuard-based protocol (our apps use WireGuard by default, and if a user wants to use something other than WireGuard derivates, they’d have to manually set it up). Note that Stealth, WireGuard TCP, and our Smart protocol on iOS/macOS are all WireGuard-based.
for our Linux app, we’re working on a fix that would provide full protection against it.
I don’t think we can. He would use it for financial speculation, fire lay off half of the workers, build a barely useful prototype that cannot withstand a baseball, and charge people for blue marks that they’d use while attempting to travel in the tunnel.

It sounds like you don’t consider emojis appropriate. How come?
Have an urgent message you want to send to someone who is not uptight or a snob? In the same way in which people smile to be kind or be welcoming, I use emojis:
“Thanks for the file ☺️”
In the same way that people mirror emotions, I use emojis: “I’m sorry about the presentation 😢” “Yeah. Those reports can take quite a while to digest 😅”
In the same way that emotionally intelligent people are candid and therefore vulnerable and able to connect with others, I use emojis*: “It’s taking forever to load 😭” “I’m kinda nervous about tomorrow’s meeting 😬”
*Of course, my dumb ass is far from emotionally intelligent. I just strive to create connection.
I recognize that, at times, a social situation could seem to demand deference beyond emojis. At the same time, there are many situations where emojis could be appropriate. I am trying to let you see why and in what contexts someone would use emojis ☺️.
Also, there’s the whole Poe’s Law issue. Emojis can help with clarity.
I don’t use it as much because my day-to-day is RStudio and Libre Office, but whenever I edit .nix files, I do it with Neovim. What convinced me was the internet’s lauding of Vim and reading about Lua and other quality of life improvements in Neovim. What convinced me was how easy it is to install and use for my minimal use case.
I don’t think I had an evaluation period beyond using interactive Vim tutorials until I felt comfortable with it.

Sounds like you’re playing a traditional TTRPG. Is it absurd to suggest something a little different? Sorry if this is not all too helpful; I just hope it gives another perspective on maps and games :)
More and more, the groups that I am a part of prefer games where the map is our imagination. My friends and I prefer games that dynamically and consistently create dramatic situations (in or out of combat), rather than a game that is basically a rigid combat simulator. We prefer dramatic games that focus on actions rather than stat comparisons.
Sometimes a map drawn with paper and pencil helps, but we use it to clarify complex situations rather than limit our combat to the rules of a rigid combat simulator.
How about global supply chains for food and clothes? How about the social systems such as healthcare and education? How about infrastructure like the internet or roads? Does each “independent” man do it all on their own?

I love how you put it. I think the particular consequences of not making money quickly enough is pulling the plug in projects. Investors want money, not games.
