Oh I’m perfectly aware this is most likely a chain of pressure and responsibility dodging:


Oh they absolutely know. Zuck’s Meta is on trial right now not only because Instagram creates an addiction for kids, but because it was made delibarately, on purpose. Kids addictron was the goal.
They’ve always known. They just don’t care for the rest of humanity.


Given you propose to chose between 2 federated solutions, I assume you want a good robust federation. So it’s easy: XMPP, period.
Anyone who has experienced self-hosting knows Matrix is several times heavier on memory and CPU than XMPP, and that’s one of the reasons 99% of the Matrix users are on 1 server, while I actually dnn’t even know which XMPP server is the largest.:


He will probably claim to work a gazillion hours a week with an unrivaled efficiency, making him one of the most productive humans on Earth. Because these people are not just sociopaths, they’re also completely delusional about their intelligence and true worth, out of money worth.


You think he would oppose a massive genocide of 99.9% of humanity if he could get an army of robots to sérve him in his new world?
Think again!


Pretty sure they won’t care except if it ends with a multi-billions$ fine. The intent is that by the time, their “smart-glasses” are everywhere and banning them no longer seems reasonable.
So they’ll settle for “privacy settings by default”, meaning they commit to not record anything except if the user expilicitly activate it, and it should be very visible for people around.
They’ll wait a good 6 months before an update introduces back a silent auto-record of some kind, because that company never gave a flying fuck about the law, its users or basic decency.


Let’s just hope pissing off the judge on mïnute 1 may get them uncomfortable about the rest of the trial.
KDE can be considered heavy only if your idea of a desktop use is to launch it and stop right there.
But normally after that you launch apps and that’s where the magic happens: it is so integrated, apps barely add any more RAM usage on top.
So instead of comparing DE x and y, compare what a desktop actively used looks like: browser? office suite? file manager? drawing app?
Only then will you be able to compare you RAM usage from one DE to another. Everything else is comparing cars fuel economy when they’re all idle.


They’re working on an alternative device with a large OEM they’ve not disclosed yet. They’re aiming at releasing it in 2027.


Protectind yourself from beind spied on and then potentially blackmailed is a hostile behavior!


That, the coming war against VPN in other states and countries, … Can’t we cut through all these baby steps and get straight to a 1984’s telscreen mandatory in all rooms?
Oh come on! Think about all the domestic violence’s victims!


Pretty sure ~30% will still answer he will use that better than any UN org for the world’s best interests.


Plan A is certainly staying in power, absolute power, in the US.
Plan B might be escaping prosecution for corruption, pedophilia, rape, … but still with a bigliest bank account.


It’s ironic how your first thought is not to make them accountable in front of the law just like everyone else.


Years ago there was a sketch in France making parody of local news to denounce racism: Anchor: “A man shot at a group of Arabs arguing they were too loud. After investigations, the police concluded that indeed, the Arabs were too loud”.
This news brought that immediately in my mind.


No. As long as the base remains opensource (AOSP), they can remove the bad parts. Graphene has made numerous contributions to AOSP, I’m confident they can manage that. And if the user base growths, I hope their fundings will follow.
It would be a good thing for the world if AOSP was forked with big resources behind an open project with an open governance. But that needs lot of resources.


All four sections carry a penalty of imprisonment for not more than five years, although § 1001 is punishable by imprisonment for not more than eight years when the offense involves terrorism or one of several federal sex offenses. The same five-year maximum penalty attends the separate crime of conspiracy to commit any of the four substantive offenses.
Even 1 year in jail should be a good enough incentive, if only he could not buy his way out.


Agree, but since he stated multiple time that all cars since xxx years were hardware capable of L5 self-driving next year (no need to precise the year, the statement is repeated every year), adding LIDAR now would be opening the way to a major class action. So he painted himself in a corner, and like all gigantic-ego idiots, he doubles down every time he’s asked.
They just wanted to pack that list. Who thinks child exploitation is a true concern while nothing is done about the Epstein file?
