why are you so interested in logs? are you like a lumberjack?

It is kind of interesting how open machine learning already is without much explicit advocacy for it.

It’s the only field I can think of where the open version is just a few months behind SOTA in all of IT.

Open training pipelines and open data are the only aspects that could still use improvements in ML, but there are plenty of projects that are near-SOTA and fully open.

ML is extremely open compared to consumer mobile or desktop apps that are always ~10 years behind SOTA

Congratulations 🤠🥾er

I think you are looking at work horse distros, like Ubuntu, Fedora, etc… That by now are heavily used for productive work, not personal use. So they favor stability and minor quality of life improvements over shiny new updates.

There’s plenty shiny new cutting edge distros out there that are innovating, e.g. Nix, Silverblue, VanillaOS, all the container focused ones CoreOS, Container OS, Flatcar Container Linux and probably dozens more newer ones I am not aware of .

oh that is very neato, if I do say so myself

Off-topic: That website is so nice. I’ve never seen any mobile site load that fast and look as nice

well well well, the archiver becomes the archivee

It’s so ironic that Pixels are the go to devices for privacy roms these days.

All this shit is probably happening at the hardware level too, with 100 different backdoors you can’t remove with your megamind plan of installing a custom rom.

The silicon probably has the ability to live stream all sensor data directly to the NSA using the fanciest ML compression technology lmao.

You could try Molly if you don’t like Signal

That’s cool, but seems kind of pointless, considering you can be easily reasonably deanonymized if your relatives take a DNA test. It doesn’t address the main issue of your genetic information being used commercially.

I think the safest bet would be to get a PhD in medical genetics and manually go through your data base pair by base pair

I always wanted to check out my genome, but never did so because of shady companies like this.

Is there any genome sequencing service for consumers that actually respects your privacy? Especially for full genome sequencing.

I am quite happy with Njalla, haven’t had any issues yet

Radium stands for radically yummy

TiddlyWiki sounds like something else entirely

The only other alternative I know is SongTube

I took it, sorry. I’ll put it back

I have a Xiaomi, I love their hardware and the fact that it’s bugged by a foreign nation rather than my own. But Xiaomi software is garbage and flashing is an absolute pain. I looked at what rom support modern Xiaomi devices have and I am not impressed. It’s almost all half baked or not privacy oriented. I’ve been struggling with one of said ROMs for years.

I am sick of flashing one-off ROMs without proper support or OTA, and constant system level bugs.

I’d love to have a manufacturer with open-source/open hardware focused cheap high performance repairable hardware and with privacy ROMs as a first-class citizen. Like a Fairphone if it was good.

But sadly all of these devices end up with bad support too in the end.

I think the main issue is that most ROM developers today only buy the most high end flagship devices, since those are the only ones that get any decent support. I’m guessing that’s because they all got high paying tech jobs now.

Yeah the fact that Pixel Phones are the defacto standard for privacy phones is absurd. It’s guaranteed chock full of hardware surveillance tools you can’t remove with custom roms or kernels.

Outside of the Pixel lineup, custom rom support is almost non-existant in 2024. it’s wild, you can get the same or better hardware for half the price.

none, I was just blessed with the role against my will because no one else was around
