I thought Boz was in Bali, by golly

I had a blintz in Bali.

This is the most “I like all music except rap and country” post I’ve ever seen.

I did the same: sat on a lot of these resource alternatives to prep for the transition. Turns out these are just proofs of concept and there are soo many more alternatives out there, including use cases that the big guys don’t create for. It becomes as simple as searching forums or asking ai for a “genuinely foss, privacy-respecting app compatible with GrapheneOS that does x.”

I’m always curious whether using privacy software somehow marks us as higher value targets such that what metadata we do end up leaking is given disproportionate focus for advertisers and whatnot. Joke’s on them: I’m using the foolproof technique of strategic poverty.

Does Proton’s pw manager have any missing features at the free tier compared to Bitwarden? For example Proton Calendar paywalls the ability to color code events. Not much, but just curious.

I hope the comic creator is paying rotlyalties to Tenacious D & family having made the same joke 20 years prior: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hic9LJOw9i0

Plus there’s no such thing as obviously guilty until proven so.

There’s a few communities in the spectrum you describe: [email protected], [email protected]; (placeholder, will add more)

Social media can be so contentious that people carry the average valence to unassuming comments. In general I try to just block aggressive people to mitigate that effect overall.

Salient Proof: Distinct is the opposite of average, average is mean, therefore distinct is nice.

Useless info: The backtick (`), forward tick (´), and apostrophe (') are distinct characters.

I highly value privacy, but the gap between local LLMs vs top of the line cloud LLMs (e.g. Claude & DeepSeek) is still too great for me to switch completely to the former.

I’ll use PWAs to sandbox LLMs from everything else (and each other) and try to create semantic distance between the user and the queries.

How about that leaked Claude source code? Is there a reliably clean version of that available anywhere yet?

The pointer is incidental. Their comment is pointing out that globe’s are necessarily 3D spheres so (assuming it’s not a one-liner joke) OP’s post wouldn’t be consistent with “members all around” a flat circular model of Earth.

Nothing I suggested prevents that.

Unnecessary bullying

46 minutes? 😮

After the joke I still had to look it up. There are two types: towers and floaters.

The tower rigs are built in shallow water on a seabed foundation (like a building) and can reach heights of 200+ feet above sea level with 60-100 feet of the tower submerged.

The floating ones are only 30-60 feet above sea level and 60-100 feet of mostly pontoons below (like an iceberg) and are further stabilized using cables or computer-controlled thrusters.

So my guess is the one in the photo is a tower one, but that may not be rig(ht).

I hate to say it but this is a good use case for AI filtering. it could filter content we’re already familiar with yet allowing it through once the content changes enough to warrant some threshold of new learning. It’d help older folks from nlt getting left in the dust by these young whipper-snappers.
