If I could get a single person to use Signal instead of Whatsapp... or even the nerds I know to use matrix instead of Discord...

update: Lumo sucks.

If you use something like simplewall or Portmaster you can block every OS communication with the mothership and make it look like you are offline for them :)
Probably soon they are making it that you can't use Windows offline though lol

But up until recently you could download packages and utilities directly from their site, now you are forced to do it through Microsoft Store. I just started this new Win11 laptop and right after debloating the shit out of it I noticed the updates didn't install HEIC and AV1 codecs and there was no way for me to install them without getting Microsoft Store back, so I restored it and downloaded them and then removed Windows Store... guess what? Removing it removed the downloads as well lol

maybe the guy is just brown and afraid of the ICE?
being brown is a dangerous activity nowadays.

My point is that what we fear bible‑thumpers can do, qur’an‑thumpers are already doing in several parts of the world, so they must be treated as an equal threat.

thanks :)

I love Handmaid's Tale, I suggest you reading Persepolis as well, this is one is a true history though.

I never claimed to have Muslim friends though, just arab friends :P
About religions, I'm a "phobe" of them all.

Word (about being practically useless). I have been using it to automate some stuff, like when I'm creating a json I just paste a bunch of data there and ask it to format for me, but I have to do in small batches and constantly correct the way it's doing... Chat GPT was way better, but I don't want to use it anymore
Sometimes I use AI to grammar check me (I'm not a native speaker) if I'm unsure of what I'm writing or I absolutely want to write stuff correctly, I did it a few times in Lumo, but I didn't use it enough to compare with duck.ai, so I can't say if it's better or worse - but I always add "don't rewrite, just point errors, ignore slurs, ignore slang, ignore informal language, ignore internet lingo" etc etc, and they go and rewrite my sentence changing everything hehe (again, Chat GPT was way better)

I've read this on GrapheneOS page

"Avoid Gecko-based browsers like Firefox as they're currently much more vulnerable to exploitation and inherently add a huge amount of attack surface. Gecko doesn't have a WebView implementation (GeckoView is not a WebView implementation), so it has to be used alongside the Chromium-based WebView rather than instead of Chromium, which means having the remote attack surface of two separate browser engines instead of only one. Firefox / Gecko also bypass or cripple a fair bit of the upstream and GrapheneOS hardening work for apps. Worst of all, Firefox does not have internal sandboxing on Android. This is despite the fact that Chromium semantic sandbox layer on Android is implemented via the OS isolatedProcess feature, which is a very easy to use boolean property for app service processes to provide strong isolation with only the ability to communicate with the app running them via the standard service API. Even in the desktop version, Firefox's sandbox is still substantially weaker (especially on Linux) and lacks full support for isolating sites from each other rather than only containing content as a whole. The sandbox has been gradually improving on the desktop but it isn't happening for their Android browser yet." https://grapheneos.org/usage

And all I use is Gecko-based hehe (although on desktop), I'm currently using Brave just to have some old/disposable accs logged, but I'm looking for Chromium alternatives... and I just looked at ungoogled git and it seems like I have to download a bunch of stuff to compile it myself, argh, I hate that :P

I'm also in no way qualified to check code, so I just trust that if something has a lot of forks it means a lot of people are looking at it.
