Nice chart. Why would Gnucas and Firefly not be listed? That said, i loaded on mobile and wasnt viewing properly

I’ve been thinking about this lately as i was intending to build a 3 node cluster with proxmox. I still need to understand what happens when one node fails and how tbe othes handle exposing services. If the ip changes, bookmarks wont work. So i thought an inter al domain would be the sol ution?

Behind a VPN? How are you managing that? Everytime I go through VPN, YT says “please login” :-(

This sounds pretty clever. Why create new infrastructure when uts already there …

Sure, but governments don’t do what is right for people. If pepple are jappy with poor software why should they intervene?

Im hearing more and more about Deltachat. Where is it based?

Disagree. My doctor shouldnt be using whatsapp to communicate my health issues. We guve them this freedom. Stand for your rights.

Only problem is that ive started noticing telcoms are discouraging their use by limiting number of sms on monthly plan. Wonder why …?

I have two profiles on my GOS and Wapp lives on one of them. However, i manage people expectations telling them that my Wapp phone is almost always off so they know that if its urgent, they need to call or use Signal. Eventually people will understand and if they dont, i am not prepared to live my life by the needs if others. I lived at a time where there were no mobile phones. Life worked the same, albeit at a slower pace. People, we really dont need to be hyperconnected. Relax and let people understand that yheir mental status will improve once they put some rules between them and their mobile devices.

In fact, i’ve scratched it off my list of places to see before i die. This is a country where it is illegal to bring a bottle of wine home from the restaurant but ut’s legal to carry a gun in your car.

Interesting. I passed 2 out of 3. I have a unique headers problem. Using vanadium on GOS. Is this the place to download ironfox from ? https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/releases

This fmd looks really cool. Been looking for something like this for a while. I guess it could be used malitiously if u r not careful. Of course people would have to know u have it installed, but they could guess. I’ll have ti figure out the safest way to use it.

What really helps with such decisions is your use model and threat model. Then a nice matrix that compares them all. Haven’t come across a good updated comparison in a while. Would be good to see a shared link here.

I don’t get this. How can Chinese models be so performant if they are spending a tiny fraction of US investment. If this difference in investment is down to research investment, then there is something I’m not getting? And, if Chinese models are open, how is it that they can keep ahead of US? Finally, if all this is true, the investors in US AI business is dangerous territory … i would be running away from that inflated investment. Of course i barely understand AI …

How bloody annoying! Trying to move the tree to another VM and exported *.gramps file from other VM where it was working but get the same problem around the database being locked. It means that the GRAMPSWEB_TREE: setting in the compose file makes no difference. Makes no difference whether I try importing as admin. This is also a single tree setup. This issue is really annoying. Wish the docs referenced it.

“I need WhatsApp for almost everything from talking to family and friends to Work. Most of the world does, and the same is true for Facebook.”

Whatsapp and Facebook bring convienence for sure, but you can live without them. All those that know me, know i refuse to use Whatapp. Those that want to keep up with me have installed Signal. I admit that for business it can be tricky but we have to start somewhere?

And what happens if governments start banning cryptography or force backdoors on crypography?

Has the link gone down? I get error when trying to access

And why would these apps be exempt if 90% of all communication goes through them?

I don’t know where u live but EU brings good things too. Go and ask the Brits who are mourning the departure they voted for 10 years ago. Of course there are a lot of things that could be improved but that is the responsibility of us citizens.
