Building on this, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on GrapheneOS as a whole. The OS recently bundled a new app "store"/repository, "Accrescent”, along with the usual basic apps like a calculator & camera. On Accrescent, the hardened fork of Signal, Molly, is offered on there. I've alsoheard one of the Graphene devs has voiced some chuddy politics.

I've still installed & use Molly to chat with my closest friends who I was able to get off of big tech platforms previously used for our group chats, but I have been aware of the RFA/Signal connection for several years (your blog post really ties it together) & I do try to remind these friends about it. Really we just use Signal to shitpost and organize hangouts, so I'm not yet locking myself in a bunker over using it for those purposes, but all this has got me considering building a server & hosting a different secure chat service on it.

I learned about possible Unit 8200 connections with the Matrix protocol within the past year or two, but don't recall exactly what that entails. I haven't heard much about Briar, but it being android only would make it a harder sell for getting people to switch over to it, so I suppose that leaves simpleX to proselytize.

Dang the boatsman is gonna kill me in this realm, then drown me in the Styx to send me to super-Hades!

Ohshit the submarine president's nautical revenge on third party voters makes me wish I didn't live amongst the coastal elite 👀

Similar issue with contacts who don't have a picture associated with their info card/page/profile. Stock Android (GOS in my case) sometimes displays the contact's first & last name initials in a circle (i.e. on the favorites page the phone app) in a color that is nearly identical to the circle's background color.

"Mija, you're worth it" (:

Global achievement recorded in Israel - melanoma incidence rates have declined by 30% among Jewish women and stability has been observed among Jewish men

After a government education program to promote sunscreen use lmao.

Among the Arab population in Israel, melanoma is a rare disease and the morbidity rates amount to no more than a handful of cases.

How do you get the 30% reduction if you're not as "white skinned" as we've been led to believe? Sounds like you're just thin skinned because you know you're repeating history.

With the inherent biases present in any LLM training model, the issue of hallucinations that you've brought up, alongside the cost of running an LLM at scale being prohibitive to anyone besides private-state partnerships, do you think that will allay conspiracists' valid concerns about the centralization of information access, a la the reduction in quality google search results over the past decade and a half?
