The world is cold and insensitive the majority of the time

Maybe you could strive to be better than that.

Maybe he does. Have you asked him?

This is the rub, tech is able to track you based on your browser, viewport size, os, location (a vpn still has a location if you aren’t rotating) and more. I use Firefox for privacy and just that measure alone rules out 97% of internet traffic and zeros down who I am within 3%. How private am I if I default to that 3%. 1440p monitor and a half screen Firefox viewport? Now we’re building an advertising profile!


If targeted advertising is your main threat, then you are lucky to _currently_ live in a country whose government _currently_ does not consider you an enemy or potential enemy. Many people are not that lucky and many people will become unlucky despite not changing anything about themselves.


That’s what I do, the jetkvm has its “own” mini hdmi that follows it as I have moved it from different machines. Buying one cable wasn’t the end of the world (I was able to snag the jetkvm for $70 during its kickstarter and a $10 cord) and I use it constantly so it’s never collecting dust


I like the comparison of Meshtastic being the replacement for CB, it fits pretty well since they are both decentralized and made to run without a lot of underlying infrastructure and both work well to communicate in emergency’s.


I think this is the real problem. If it’s unsourced, how can I verify the LLM isn’t hallucinating. That being said I started running open web ui to host models locally and have heard that some will source their content(I don’t know which, I haven’t hosted them yet) so that is promising. I also like hosting deep seek locally and being able to review its logic process so I can assess how it arrived at its conclusions. All that to say, I still use a traditional search (self hosted version of searxng) for 95% of my search. I like llms for bouncing ideas around, but not for finding accurate results quickly
