Falin! Put some pants on!

While the open source argument is valid, the end to end encryption critique is a bit odd to me. It is, by definition, end to end encrypted, and proton claims that the chat history is stored locally on your device and is blindly encrypted at rest on their servers, same as in their email system.

The individual messages do have to be decrypted for inference option arrival, but really there isn't another option.

What I'd like to see is evidence of 3rd party audits on this scheme in addition to more information on the models used.

I'll be honest, when I got my ass blown up by a trip mine 1 minute from completing a S tier pizza delivery, stumbled into the bunker shamefully with a half ruined pie, and a vtuber popped up to take delivery and told me she was the very same person who put the trip mines by the door, this old man did crack a smile.

Raises alarms? It sounds like he had a mental breakdown and caused his staffers to as well.

I actually don't think this is shocking or something that needs to be "investigated." Other than the sketchy website that doesn't secure user's data, that is.

Actual child abuse / grooming happens on social media, chat services, and local churches. Not in a one on one between a user and a llm.

It doesn't help that the character on the right looks rad as fuck

Grok 2 uses the image model, "Flux." Flux is made by black forest labs. You two can download the model and run it locally on a moderately expensive gaming PC or use it for free at https://huggingface.co/spaces/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev among other places.

I find it funny that the most newsworthy component of this product is made and distributed for free by a completely unrelated company. This is manufactured outrage by musk as a ploy to seem relivant in the ai space. All he did was put a free thing behind a Paywall.

I disagree with this premise. I think games like age of empires and StarCraft had mass appeal and success. They brought in audiences who don't normally like games, and broadly were well received by young, old, and different genders. Especially age of empires 2.

Modern RTS games are just (mostly) sloppy, unfinished, cashgrabs with no vision. They suffer the most from the transition to 3d as well. If a major studio actually put work and time into a polished, 2d, isometric, RTS that wasn't solely focused on being an esport, I think there is a major vacuum for them to fill.

The attrition is slow, but every user lost to Linux is likely lost forever. After a year or so of totally free software, who is going to build a new windows compatible PC, buy a Windows 11 license, and pay for subscription service just to do word processing, or play a few incompatible games?

Windows completely overestimates people's willingness to throw out their laptop or PC just to get a new OS paintjob. For every person who does it, another one will leave their ecosystem forever.

Beehaw is inaccessible to me right now. I cannot load my profile or the main page. In the event that Beehaw is down, is there some other place we can check to see updates? I'm assuming it's the reddit exodus hugging it to death.
