IMO, your suggestion assumes that today's government and tomorrow's government will have the same ideals and viewpoints on pornography, and not for 1-2 administrations, but indefinitely. Being able to reverse engineer someone via metadata is possible as is, and likely will become even more finetuned as we AI evolves.

As an American, there are plenty of examples under the current administration where data shared in confidence by undocumented immigrants are now being used to target them for deportation.

It's kind of like sharing data with a company indefinitely because of their current ToS, which is just a snapshot in time. Today's "helpful" approach towards data collection becomes a key part of surveillance in tomorrow's world.

It isn't the same singer. That is why only WorldStarHipHop and this random site are reporting it

2-3 years ago, it would be great. Nowadays, I think it will just expedite the embrace of AI as an alternative, but I might be pessimistic.

Re: gadgetbridge, my current model I purchased because it was available through them. $100 and great reviews online. Check out the Amazfit Active 2 if you haven't pulled the trigger already. Alternatively, check out reviews from 'The Quantified Scientist' on YouTube if you really care about GPS/Sleep tracking and want to see how models stack up.

Any other tips for the VM and/or GrapheneOS compatibility? Ie: did you use a different profile? I run Debian throughout my house as is, but plan on integrating the VM for better integration but was a little hesitant to be an early adopter due to the potential nuances. (lemme know if you have a blog/gist/etc covering it too)

I have the other perspective where I think that highly rated resellers have an incentive to share SMART results and ship good product. Perhaps its eBay centric, it has been my experience for used and refurbished electronics. If it's any consolation, your perspective is likely what keeps the cost low for these sellers.

It reminds me of the same whatabout-isms that downplayed TikTok as a threat becauae US companies are a threat. I chalk it up to a lack of imagination ironically

 

It’s fun to say that artificial intelligence is fake and sucks — but evidence is mounting that it’s real and dangerous

 
  1. Yes I know you can learn for free reading man pages
  2. Remember to update the 'Adjust Donation' before purchasing to give more to the charity/publisher
  3. Share which books you already read or are looking forward to reading
 

I follow two already using FreshRSS and I'm looking for more

 

"After much consideration, we have decided to move Platformer off of Substack. Over the next few days, the publication will migrate to a new website powered by the nonprofit, open-source publishing platform Ghost. If you already subscribe to Platformer and wish to continue receiving it, you don’t need to do anything: your account will be ported over to the new platform."

 

They've started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you're searching for.

This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?

I'm having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.
