That there is no perfect defense. There is no protection. Being alive means being exposed; it’s the nature of life to be hazardous—it’s the stuff of living.

Got me on that one! I forgot about WhatsApps.
For what it’s worth I didn’t have it logged in until last week when I needed to get in touch with someone.
I will need to log out.

I am aware of hardmode, I used to use NoScript.
It’s a bit too much work these days.

What the hell is catbox.moe?
Isn’t “moe” a weird anime/manga genre with hints of pedo motifs?
- Comment on Twitch is getting vertical livestreams 2 days ago:
I mean across all display devices, not just monitors.
Dont get me wrong, while I don’t have an ultrawide, I’ve seen some of them in store and they look wonderful. It’s almost like being in the future.
That being said, it’s clear that vertical resolutions/aspect ratios are far more widespread.
- Comment on Twitch is getting vertical livestreams 2 days ago:
Ultrawide is extremely niche compare to vertical resolutions/aspect ratio. It’s not even close.

YT search has always been comically bad if your looking for “long tail results”.

- Comment on Google, Volvo Cars deepen partnership to develop Android software for vehicles 1 week ago:
I don’t drive and have minimal experience with cars.
Does it make a big difference whether your Android Automotive solution is based on Android 13 or 15?
It’s been a long time since I’ve cared about OS upgrades for Android on smartphones, perhaps the situation is different with Android Automotive?

Thanks for sharing, this is cool!
Also nice to find interesting content creators who mirror on peertube.

- Comment on Google Says iPhone Adoption Of RCS Has Led Users To Share 'More Than A Billion' Messages Daily, Yet SMS/MMS Still Reign Supreme In The U.S. 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think this is a Google thing.
We have working cross-carrrier RCS in Ukraine. No one uses it though.
- Comment on Algorithm based on LLMs doubles lossless data compression rates 2 weeks ago:
I found the article to be rather confusing.
One thing to point out is that the video codec used in this research (but for which results weren’t published for some reason), H264, is not at all state of the art.
H265 is far newer and they are already working in H266. There are also other much higher quality codecs such as AV1. For what it’s worth, they do reference H265, but I don’t have access to the source research paper so it’s difficult to say what they are comparing against.
The performance relative to FLAC is interesting though.

Just some super basic index stuff. Day trading style strategies is not my type of thing.
- Comment on OpenAI negotiates with Microsoft to unlock new funding and future IPO 3 weeks ago:
Ah I see. I thought you had equity and wanted to cash out during the IPO.
- Comment on OpenAI negotiates with Microsoft to unlock new funding and future IPO 3 weeks ago:
I don’t get all these discussions about “charitable purpose” and so on. It’s pretty clear that this is oligarch run institutions and the individuals involved are likely incapable of understanding the concept of “charitable purpose”.
- Comment on OpenAI negotiates with Microsoft to unlock new funding and future IPO 3 weeks ago:
Are you insider? Or why exactly are you waiting for their IPO?

- Comment on \[INFO REPORT] Mass Mobile Internet Outages in Russia Amid UAV Threats – More Than a Tactical Blackout? 3 weeks ago:
I am surprised they went as far as mass shutdown of mobile internet in so many large metropolitan areas.
Seems like they are being paranoid. I don’t get the impression we have the capabilities for a big strike that would have immense symbolic impact (e.g. on the military units taking part in the parade in Moscow).
