It depends on the country you are living in. There are plenty of people with restricted and surveilled internet.

Manjaro was quite messy last time I tried it a couple of years ago.

Yes, so pretty much they don’t want to be held responsible. And the government is bending backwards to comply with the tech bros.

But how would they know I have been truthful about my age? I mean I am never putting my real age when registering on websites.

Why do they need the age after all. What are authorities going to do with it?

That’s a great question. I like the concept of more stable OS and I played a bit with NixOS in the past but ultimately decided that it is too much of a hassle to learn Nix to use it and decided to try Bluefin. I am actually overall content as I was able to install the missing packages either in Toolbox/Distrobox or using homebrew.

By the way I have actually found a way, and rebased my OS to another immutable flavor. I know that’s more of a workaround.

True, maybe the best way then is to expose them only within your Wireguard network.

Thanks to both of you, my same thoughts, but I also wanted to hear an outside perspective as I am not so well versed in IPv6. But it sounds reassuring. Shall I also consider exposing some HTTP/S services for media over IPv6 is also relatively safe, as long as I have MFA etc?

AI should also be taxed proportionally then. And they should be liable and not exempt of copy rights infringements.

I believe most of the companies are doing it to inflate their share prices.

Same. That’s for me a red flag that a company took the enshittification path and things will get progressively worse.

Plus I would rather support an open source project that benefits the whole community than a greedy company who is trying to milk their customers.

You also need to change the devices browsers, extensions and timezones to stay anonymous or buy a device and set the most common fingerprint settings, so it is harder for those companies to track you down. It is a slippery slope, and you can check your browser fingerprint and avoid adding unique settings, extensions or anything that can help them to track you.

Why is our company valued at 4 trillions instead of 10 trillions. Those peaky humans are not buying enough of our shares. /s

I don’t know but I am constantly hitting the RAM limit with 16Gb of RAM with around 20-30 open tabs and other apps, both on Linux and Windows

Welcome, glad to be of help.

This at the moment is a clear Ponzi scheme.

OpenAI or Nvidia announces some partnership or a deal for X amount of billions. As a result the valuation of the recipient company goes straight to the sky, increasing the market valuation of said company X-times more.

And then try to tell me this isn’t a bubble.

The future is very small models trained to work in a certain domain and able to run on devices.

Huge foundational models are nice and everything, but they are simply too heavy and expensive to run.

China right now is leading the way with releasing open weights models. The US lags behind, as they are all more concerned about releasing closed weights commercial models.

It’s not only coding.

Idiocracy incoming in 3, 2, 1

If they do the object recognition on the cloud there is no way they offer those doorbells without any monthly subscription. My guess is that it is either doing something on the device or is just a dumb camera with an RTSP feed without any AI features.

My guess is the latter, considering the price. And still 20 bucks for this doorbell without a monthly subscription is a good deal. If they build something natively supporting Home Assistant that would be a killer device.

But as a friend used to say, if something is free, you are the product.
