- Comment on Introducing Lumo, the AI where every conversation is confidential | Proton 1 week ago:
I cancelled my years old account a few days ago when I started to receive the damned “try our Xyz” popup bullshit on their website.
The bugs that are never fixed, the “new products” coming in no one asked, and not having a proper Linux support for the drive…
Can we talk about the marvelous idea that is the bridge? Gotta reinstall the certificate once a month or so.
I had enough of a subpar email service. If I want encrypted email, I’ll do it myself thank you.

- Comment on Anubis, The Opensource Defender Against AI Bots: I fight bots in my free time 3 weeks ago:
I use the lynx browser sometimes, for hacker news, some blogs that I follow, or just for a quick browse to find an answer.
The fact that more and more websites need to use this kind of protection is saddening me, since lynx doesn’t support JavaScript.
That’s just another reason why I fucking hate AI.
I don’t hate it, I /fucking/ hate AI.
- Comment on Get Your Filthy ChatGPT Away From My Liberal Arts 4 weeks ago:

- Comment on 16 Billion Apple, Facebook, Google And Other Passwords Leaked — Act Now 1 month ago:
What does the article say more than the title?
Nothing, each paragraph is a remash of the previous saying nothing more than the title.
That’s AI filling up a white page with words.
- Comment on Are AI Bots Knocking Cultural Heritage Offline? 1 month ago:
Yes.
I can’t use lynx for most of the sites I am used to go with it. They are all protecting themselves with captcha and other form of javascript computation.
The net is dying.
Fucking thank you AI-bullshitery…
