jnk,

The XZ topic was way more complicated than that and overly exaggerated by some people. Open source is still the closest thing we have to “safe by default”.

Still, as someone else stated, if you’re not hosting it’s not truly open source as you can’t really verify the actual code running behind the server.

I haven’t tried it myself (tho I’m planning to do so soon), but check Onju voice, it tries to do something kinda similar.

I hope someone tries do pull that on an echo dot. Good hardware, shit software.

Edit: Update with related links.

The Onju Github i forgot before, tho it’s linked in pcbway. It has instructions to set it up along with home assistant and even a matrix bridge.

Onju voice satellite is a different project using the same custom pcb. This one looks better integrated with home assistant and has an actual wakeword system (unlike og onju, which doesn’t have one by design). This one feels more like “better private alexa for home assistant”.

jnk,

Bonus step) Call the cops over the previous cop’s mental health

/s

jnk,

I was too late to see that and still miss it… So glad projects like the fediverse are trying to bring it back

jnk,

Try to take this as a compliment: do you even sleep? Damn

jnk,

Toggling on data collection without informing the user would mean billions of dollars worth of fines in Europe, so I doubt that happens regularly.

More like a few thousand euros symbolic fine and an angry letter saying “don’t be an ass again pls our infrastructure depends on you” after years of blatant abuses and anti-consumer practices, followed by an ambiguous law (with positive effects affecting only european users) they will definitely not manage to circumvent withing the next week and a half. Not this time 🤡.

The problem here is the fact that most people just do not give a fuck about this; that’s why there’s no coverage in the (mainstream) media, why the only people who cares end up just leaving windows and why this kind of options are usually opt-out and they can actually afford to silently re-enable them cuz who’s gonna check anyways? Random people ranting on meme communities about my fancy malware?

jnk,

I actually skipped to the replies after the second line, then read the whole thing.

I swear i can actually read

jnk,

Wait are you implying that regulating fire arms in USA would help to deal with human traffic and drugs from mexico?

I mean it makes sense, but doesn’t certain people hate mexicans and like guns a bit too much? Are they using their brains at all?

jnk,

Everything is open source for this guy after using this simple trick. Big techs HATE him!

jnk,

My god i shouldn’t have read the thread you crossposted from

Glorious ship btw

jnk,

I really think jesus would’ve agreed tho. The guy didn’t discriminate even abolute assholes, why do you think tacos would be crossing the line?

jnk,

If they require at least a 71yo, assuming the person started working at 16 and has dedicated their entire life to develop software without ever touching management positions, … At what age does people retire in that country??

jnk,

Damn… I swear no one will ever see me again after my 65th birthday, I’ll be on the beach, probably knitting till I die

jnk,

I’m luckily young enough i haven’t finished my list of actually good “old” media, so yeah, seven seas all the way

jnk,

The meme is about a controversial topic which has lead to numerous debates lately where “both sides” are extremely sexist to the other. I made an statement, it wasn’t subject of debate (unlike the meme).

there is no rule that the memes can’t be attached to debates

Never said that, I actually enjoy a lot of debates born from memes, so that’s not the problem. I clearly said I didn’t see this specific topic appropriate because of the sexist (and sometimes political) nature of it. Debates are only cool when they aren’t meant to divide and create conflict-

Were you guys outspoken then?

-which you seem to try to encourage. Nice try, but I’m not changing my mind here, this post doesn’t seem appropriate to me in the slightest. People here expect “haHa [insert funny akward quote]”, not “let’s compare ewoks to fucking rapists”.

jnk,

That’s why I said the post didn’t feel appropriate to me, dragging this topic only makes it worse for everyone (even the poor ewoks), then some people started to misinterpret (some in clear bad faith) my statement and bring more hate 🙃

I’m tired of the internet, even asking for peace brings controversy nowadays…

jnk,

I have (too many) siblings both older and younger and, at least in my family’s experience, sometimes parents need to see this in action before realizing their behavior/parenting isn’t right.

Take my family as an example, I’ve been years when i was a teenager complaining about how they treated me and my nearest sisters, which failed miserably as they didn’t change and we ended up pretty fucked up mentally and one of them migrated and doesn’t want to come back even to the same country. Some years later, I tried basically parenting my 2 youngest brothers, but respecting certain topics where my (religious) parents are a bit too sensitive. The first one has been the most peaceful teenage man in our family by far, and my parents noticed how i was approaching him (something similar to OP, but pre-shut in? Basically tried giving him an ally when possible). They changed their ways only after seeing their previous failures and a more healthy result.

… Tho it’s worth nothing they have 1 child left to raise and most people doesn’t have enough kids to have a full damn hero’s journey about parenting lol

jnk,

A version with different distros would be nice. I want to see blood here.

jnk,

Same for plasma, global clipboard is just more convenient

You should be ashamed of your peers

That’s exactly the war crime mentioned before. How is that different from blaming every german for being from the same country as nazis?

Edit: The nazi analogy was just me trying to find an example that even a moron could understand.

… I failed miserably

jnk,

Ok ok, let me understand you:

  • You had bad experiences with people of the other gender.
  • You think now that every man is exactly the same, and if they don’t, they’re just evil manipulators who want to hide their true evil nature.
  • You’re complaining about people who generalize with the other gender because of their past experiences (aka. sexists).
  • You 100% agree with the post, so you support neglecting people’s feelings as long as they’re from the other gender.

So… Are you a sexist incel? Why should men respect your feelings or validate your past experiences then? Stop trying to solve sexism with more sexism, it doesn’t work like that. And please don’t disrespect me or assume shit from my personal life amymore, it’s just lame.

Do you use the device you torrent on for personal things as well?

I’m just curious as I’ve permanently dedicated my laptop to torrenting. I’ve been too nervous to install anything but the VPN and Firefox on it. Now, I’m curious to mess around with Linux some more, which is what I use on it, but I can’t fully test out what all I can do with it without signing into accounts....

jnk,

Who said anything about torrenting something illegal 👀

As far as I’m concerned, everything i discuss here is for educational purposes only and even if you share info about “your” setup, it’s just hypothetical. Not your fault if someone you totally don’t know has the same setup you described and uses it for illegal activities.

jnk,

The price difference is that google steals your data. That’s it. OpenAI steals data, ask for money to use most of their models, and buy even more data from other companies stealing user data (like google and SO). Also indexing web pages is not even the “stealing” part of google, it’s just not comparable.

Yes, training AI on user data for free then selling the end product is a reasonable thing to be concerned about. It’d be different if the product was free or the data was sold to them with user consent.

SO has announced a subscription-based service trained on user data for free, and not only there’s not even opt-out, they’re mass-banning users for trying to “opt-out” manually. Tell me one thing here that’s not completely fucked up.
