I believe that Israel soldiers are perfectly capable of this atrocities, as they have shown in the past and also reported by several humanitary organisations. But we have to take this news with a grain of salt, since there is no other news that confirms it.

There is also Chitchatter, an encrypted P2P communication platform, ephimere, no account, similar Otr

It is always best not to depend on third countries in the essentials. This thing about rare earths is basically not so correct, since they are not really rare, they are found in practically all countries, only the extraction is enormously polluting, but on the other hand there are in each country old exploitations and mining in an environment that has already been destroyed. Urban mining may also should be more used than currently, with the huge amount of electronic waste available everywhere and are a big source for not only “rare earth”, but also a lot of other raw material. As always, political, economic and corporation interests prevail the common sense.

“Have all the money” is more and more relative in the US with who has all the money, the country and the people for sure not, but greedy corporations and billonairs, thank Trump, who puts public money with full hands in his own pockets and those of his friends.

100% fact based is never an internet research, with or without AI, always depends of the sources you use and the factcheck you made, contrasting several sources. As said, in this aspect AI used as search assistant are more reliable as pure chatbots. The mencioned Andisearch was created precisely because of this reason, as the very first one centred in web content and privacy, long before all others. The statement of their devs are clear about it.

Some time ago appears this from ChatGPT

I made the same question in Andisearch and it’s answer was this

Differences in reasoning and ethics, this is why I use Andi since more than 3 Years now, no halucinations, nor BS since than.

Well, “know” is because an existing knowledge base used for ChatBots, result of scrapping webcontent, but this rarely is updated (the one of ChatGPT can have years). So in a chat, the LLM can retry the concept of a question, but because of the limited “knowledge” data, converge to inventions, because the lack of reasoning, this is what an AI don’t have. This is minor in searchbots, because they don’t have the capability to chat with you, imitating human, they are limited to process the concept of your question, searching this concept in the web, comparing several pages with it to create an summary. It is a very different approach for an AI as an chat, because of this, yes, they also can give BS as answer, depending of the pages they consult for it, same as when you search something in the web in terraplanist pages, but this is with search AIs less an problem as with ChatBots.

AI is an tool and we have to use it as such, to help us in researches and tasks, not to substitute our own intelligence and creativity, which is the real problem nowadays. For Example, I have in Lemmy several posts in World News, Science and Tecnology from articles and science papers I found in the web, mostly with long texts. Because of this I post it also with an summary made by Andisearch, which is always pretty correct with added several different sources of the issue, so you can check the content. The other why I like Andisearch is, when it don’t find an answer, it don’t invent one, it simply offers an normal websearch by yourself, using an search API from DDG and other privacy search engines.

Anyway, the use of AI for researches always need an fact check, before we use the content, the only error is to use the answers as is or use biased AI from big (US) corporations. In almost 8.000 different AI apps and services which currently exist, special for very different tasks, we can’t globalise these because of the BS by ChatBots from Google, M$, METH, Amazon & cia, only blame the lack of the own common sense like a kid with a new toy, the differences are too big.

Xi has happily accepted Trump’s gift.

Generally hallucinations are frequent in pure chatbots, ChatGPT and similar, because they are based on an own knowledge base and LLM, so, if they don’t know an answer, they invent it, based on their data set. Different are AI with web access, they don’t have an own knowledge base, retrieving their answers in realtime from webcontents, because of this with a similar reliability as traditional search engines, with the advantage that they find relevant sites which are related with the context of the question, listing sources and summarizing the contents in a direct answer, instead of 390.000 pages of sites, which have nothing to do with the question in the traditional keyword search. IMHO for me, the only AI apps which result usefull for normal users, as search assistant, not an chatbot which tell me BS.

I use the SMplayer, it’s IMHO the best Media Player. Capable of streaming, even YouTube, all needed Codecs for practically any mediaformats, portable version.

We’ll see, at the moment in the US isn’t a good country for devs or cientifics, less for foreigners. They even cut the money to the NASA, shutting down climate sats, investigation centers and universities, not even police and military get paid (only ICE). Better if he tried it in Canada, the US is currently the worst and most crappy country to immigrate for everyone.

Not 1000 years ago, KHTML is still used by Konqueror, last release 25.08.2 2025-10-09 (Linux only). But yes, it got very marginal, some more development by KDE would be desirable to be an real alternative.

https://apps.kde.org/konqueror/

…WebKit started as a fork of the KHTML and KJS libraries from KDE, and has since been further developed by KDE contributors (KWebKit), Apple, Google, Nokia, Bitstream, BlackBerry, Sony, Igalia, and others. WebKit supports macOS, Windows, Linux, and various other Unix-like operating systems. On April 3, 2013, Google announced that it had forked WebCore, a component of WebKit, to be used in future versions of Google Chrome under the name Blink.

Certainly Spain is pretty active in software developement (OpenSource and also proprietary), eg. Panda Security with the first cloud based AV which retrieved Malware definition in realtime from the cloud. Nowadays most other AV, even the Windows Defender, use this system.

In trading stability is that what count. Apart that China offers way more in tecnology than the US, whose tecnology is only centred in weapons. Look at Chinas EVs, they are light years more advanced as Tesla, same in robotics, already massive implemented in the society (surveillance apart)

The EU is also going away from trades with the US (not only because tariffs) and prefering to trade with China as a more trustworth client and provider.

EU OpenSource alternatives already exist since a lot of years, often even superior as the ones from the US. It’s not the lack of EU alternatives, it’s only the lack of their use by corporations and goverments, eg. Blink and WebKit are forks from the German KHTML (killed by Apple) by KDE, In the AI, there exist, among others, the Swiss Apertus (FLOSS) by the Swiss Supercomputer Center (CSCS) used also by the CERN. Proton, Nextcloud, Murena, Mastodon, Fairphone…It would be easy for the EU to have total sovereignty in Soft and Services, it just lacks the political will to have it, while Trump is occupied with his Ballroom scam, paid by Google, M$, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Cryptocompanies & cia.

On the other hand, it isn’t so important the country of community driven OpenSource, more important in those made by the mencioned Ballroom spomsores which are to avoid, also in commercial proprietary apps, there are also preferable those from EU companies.

The simple way is an cheer bot without net access and only basic AI. I had one of this for ~100 bucks, which did his work, but I gave it to my sister-in-law, because I was faster sweeping the floor with a broom.

Yes, there are also creators which public their work without any financial interests, but the most which create contents with effort and quality, like cientific documentals, music and other artistic content have costs producing and publishing it. In Odysee they have an fair system to gain money, like also in Bandcamp, without nagging and annoying the user for it, like in YT. In PeerTube to do it the creators can only use third party services for it (Patreon or others), otherwise they can do only the same as YT, blocking the access to their instance as paid service.

For creators, wich want to monitize their content, PeerTube isn’t an option. The alternatives for music is Bandcamp and for all other Odysee, there they can create incomings with their content. PeerTube is nice for upload and host videos and same images in Pixelfed, both federated but only this.

Logically, who wants to tread with an hillbilly idiot with his tariffs?
