I agree, but are you then implying that the windows explorer file search is good? Have you ever used anything else?

Moi j'ai surtout aimé cet avœu involontaire: les branleurs de cnews ne sont pas des journalistes, appelez l'arcom!

It's funny, because a quick online search shows gitlab runs operations in Saudi Arabia. But at least a bunch of idiot westerners get to feel good about themselves 🤷‍♂️

Ugh this kind of BS virtue signaling is so pointless

I'm not sure you're understanding the argument: you cannot monitor closed source, therefore, you have at least as many eyes looking at my random crap on github as you do on the random crap some companies are doing.

Of course there are (or there can be) fully secure systems. The problems come when you assume something is.

Ugh, TIL zscaler actually does more than just send my PII to the USA without my consent.

Windows has some kind of built-in VPN feature that auto starts and will otherwise not give you any network access. Add on top of that some corporate firewall and you basically can't sneeze around your laptop without IT knowing.

Multi bits models exist because thats how computers work, but there's been a lot of work to use e.g. fixed point over floating for things like FPGAs, or with shorter integer types, and often results are more than good enough.
