Imagine going through the interview process, like 10 rounds or whatever leetcode bullshit, and being told you are going to be working on /blocking Ads-Blocker users/…

Fuck it, I am out of here!

Yes.

I can’t use lynx for most of the sites I am used to go with it. They are all protecting themselves with captcha and other form of javascript computation.

The net is dying.

Fucking thank you AI-bullshitery…

it will have the advantage that academia is left leaning, meaning the model can cite widely recognized studies.

I was looking for the person saying a particular quote yesterday.

I asked 3 times the same question and I got 3 different people.

The funny part us I had the quote wrong.

Bullshit all the way down.

You get 2 triangles in a single square mate…

CHECKMATE!

Beautiful, I bookmarked it.

Thank you for sharing.

I’ve disabled Windows completely so I can be safe and sound. Never going to put that shit on my PC.

– sorry, it seemed funnier in my head.

I am going to be decapitated for this, but you’re totally right.

You only have to look at Rust. An horrible language with a massive hype machine and an army of zealots pushing it everywhere.

I can’t understand how people are complaining about the java boiler plate and its verbosity, while promoting Rust every time they can.

Add to this the cost fallacy, where they have put so much money to embrace the “AI” bullshit.

And on the top of that, did you ever see a CEO or someone in power admitting their fault and say: “yeah guys, I was wrong all along, let’s fix this, I am sorry.”

They will double down on that until bankruptcy and blame the incels, the gamers, the work force, the weather but not themselves.

TPM is a secure part, a cryptoprocessor with some memory, isolated from everything else, very basically.

It stores keys and other sensitive data, like your “hello windows pin”… Or any other PIN if you want…

This secure “box” can also be used for DRM by using the secure nature of the TPM to store the keys, or to encrypt the harddisk of your work laptop. Multiple of uses really. It’s kind of like all piece of technology, it seems like.

At that point, it’s like you are saying that encryption is bad because it can be used for DRM or validate if a piece of software is valid or not.

The TPM by itself isn’t bad or related to privacy invasion. Nor the internet or a browser is only used to spy on you.

There is a limit to the conspiracy…

You are arguing for the sake of arguing…

TPM has nothing to do with any privacy invasion, AI, or anything bad really. It was conceived by a computer industry consortium called Trusted Computing Group (TCG). It evolved into TPM Main Specification Version 1.2 which was standardized by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

Advancement in technology will always happen, and if your prose is to stop progress, you are up by your own by your own choice. Your argument about TPM is moot.

Quite a lot if banking apps are compatible. If your banking app doesn’t work, use the jail/sandbox compatible mode.

The fact that Linux has 2, 3, 4, 64467% has nothing to do with what is available at your disposal. Strawman fallacy here.

No one talked about hosting your own email server, there are alternative to the fucker-corps with privacy in mind.

You, my friend, are already defeated, but rest assured there are a ton of us still on our feet.

Nothing I can do to resist?

Microsoft is shoving this copilot in all its products? Alright, Linux and open source it is.

Google is bugging with its spyware? Well, I only use a Pixel phone, and ironically, its the best phone to put GrapheneOS on it.

Gmail? I don’t remember when I opened mine the last time…

All what’s really remaining right now is a good YouTube alternative.

If you don’t need any Google malware, you aren’t at risk.

GrapheneOS comes without them by default.

YouTube-Tools also appears to be a violation of YouTube’s privacy policies, and raises questions about what YouTube is doing to stop the scraping and repurposing of peoples’ data like this. “Public search engines may scrape data only in accordance with YouTube’s robots.txt file or with YouTube’s prior written permission,” it says.

Yeah right Google, scrape people at will, scrape artists copyrighted material without approbations or repercussions, and you dare to tell us to obey your little concerns…

Fuck off will ya

Sorry Dave…

Metroid layout.

GPT is the boss located left, the final boss is called Profit, and it’s at the bottom…
