Good commentary on social media platforms. Consequently, I was using Redlib to look around on Reddit while watching the UFC event from China today, and the r/bitcoin group was pretty pathetic. And we see why with moderator censorship. And I…
The angling towards digital ID is real. I’m reminded of Mexico where you have to submit to biometric scans to keep your cell phone number. Samsung is the last of the big three to ask for your face, which…
This is a good roundup on why this is dangerous, and why the cult of Rust is a problem. And you’d have to think this is the reason the tech megacorps are rewriting so much code in Rust beyond just…
IBM and Red Hat have been involved in hijacking projects to kill them in favor of their versions, e.g. X.Org for Wayland… So no thank you. But it is telling that they’re putting this much money and resources into this…
We could see this coming, and it’s wonderful to see. I’m with the Zig programming language in banning even the discussion of LLMs, and pointing out the errors they’re famous for, downplayed as ‘hallucinations’.
I’ve encountered problems with some crypto Android wallets because they use vibe coding consistently adding bugs. This could come down to the coders ability to review the AI code, which I believe even if skilled enough, are they doing a…
Google really risked it to promote AI search, and people are not happy. And there are more privacy options, Qwant, Metager, SwissCows…. Personally, I don’t trust DuckDuckGo because of the deal they did with Microsoft in the past, plus large…
This is a sneaky way to drive things towards digital ID, as they’ll make things such a mess that when you throw in some significant false flag cyberattacks, people will accept it? The UK has been more direct in pushing…
There are a lot of reports that tick numbers are up and possibly being dispersed. I have posts on how Lyme disease and alpha-gal syndrome are probably lab created experiments, and the telling bit of research is they’ve already created…
The Linux Foundation is a captured entity by the Linux tech megacorps in the space, so read this as where they’re trying to take things, Systemd requirement for age verification, and Wayland, the replacement for X11 they were trying to…
These are good interviews with people working on projects I use, with some good information. And both of these projects can be added on Android with F-Droid, though you have to add the Bitwarden repo link. The advantage with Bitwarden…
Joining the UK in trying to accelerate the surveillance state is another crown property, Canada. Canada is also sneakily trying to do away with property rights, so they’re really heading towards a dystopia. Canadians who have the means should really…
