A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
For a moment I wasn't sure which one of the two would be better. After careful consideration I decided both are noobs, because real pros only use emacs rigged to behave as the whole OS on an airgapped 15 year old thinkpad for anything that needs a computer, but most likely keep that in a vault too and only get it when absolutely necessary.
Google calendar? Psssssh
M-x org-mode
I mean, I still pay for my proton VPN and feel guilty every time I use Google to search for something, but even so, if the government wants to see what you're up to, they can just send you a text and gain access to your phone, including encrypted messages, without you even clicking on a link.

Spyware delivered by text In August, the Trump administration revived a previously paused contract with Paragon Solutions, an Israeli-founded company that makes spyware. A Paragon tool called Graphite was used in Europe earlier this year to target journalists and civil society members, according to The Citizen Lab, a research group based at the University of Toronto with expertise in spyware.
Little is known about how ICE is using Paragon Solutions technology and legal groups recently sued DHS for records about it and tools made by the company Cellebrite. ICE did not respond to NPR's questions about its Paragon Solutions contract and whether it is for Graphite or another tool.
Graphite can start monitoring a phone — including encrypted messages — just by sending a message to the number. The user doesn't have to click on a link or a message.
"It has essentially complete access to your phone," said Jeramie Scott, senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), a legal and policy group focused on privacy. "It's an extremely dangerous surveillance tech that really goes against our Fourth Amendment protections."
One day account with only one post, from someone who probably never hosted mails 😂
Amateurs, I bet neither of them even knows about Qubes OS
Both stupid
What is that cat-owl thing for?
Slop (but "privacy first")
That's Luma, Proton's LLM chatbot.
Well it’s the first non-butthole LLM logo I’ve seen.
It was the only app icon with the slightest hint of character. Absolutely a bummer that it’s slop.
Eh it's functional and a tool. It unlike other LLMs isn't being shoved forward as a slop creator. It's just another tool in a box.
LLMs are extremely useful for a small number of things and having it as a tool is useful.
Frankly if LLMs were like lumo instead of chatgpt people wouldn't be calling them slop. Cause they wouldn't be shitting out slop and being shoved in our faces.
A tool should exist. And it should sit there and be ignorable till needed. And fucking nothing else. Which is exactly what lumo is.
Aka the only actually fucking half way decent LLM so far.
Imagine paying anything for proton services.
Why's Summer using shite software. Tom was the one operating under a delusion in that film
Just like in the movie. Tom is indeed delusional, Summer is just cynical in her communications. They are both using shit software. Tom is putting all his fate on a single private company in pursuit of a misguided ideal and ignoring the red flags through rose tinted glasses. Summer doesn't want to commit at all because she knows there's much more complex factors at play than privacy alone but hasn't yet found someone who makes her feel safe and secure the way she wants, so she settles temporarily for what feels fun in the moment.
