Watch his video before that. Dude lost it. Made the worst AI slop movie I've ever seen. He plans to show it in his local theatre and people were begging him nor to do it. It's that bad.

Edit : the complete movie was released. Its so much worse. A creepy sex fantasy, keeping a woman in his bunker, grooming her, carrying her in his arms everywhere and encouraging her to sleep in his bed. I know it's awful but I can't stop laughing. He chose to show this to people. I'm crying.

    I'm leaving protonvpn and thinking about a local VPN provider. Non profit, more expensive, only one country (the provider's).

    Which won't fit most people's needs, but for me it's 99% of what I need.

    Also I hope being a small organization the IPs won't be blacklisted as much. Using a VPN full time in the last 2 years has become increasingly annoying.

    My fallback was Mullvad, but yeah not really an option anymore. I've used Azire, much smaller but kinda similar, it worked ok. Could go back. I'm open to suggestions

    I had already made up my mind when he called trump's administration something like "the people's party". I've been a client since forever, renewing every 2 years during sales, but not this time.

    And now reading more about what kind of person he is, ultra capitalist boss talking about "loser" mentality... What a cunt. Reminds me of musk

    company’s security Slack channel urged Proton to at least take a few days to pentest newly written code before pushing it live. “That’s bullshit and loser thinking. Of course it’s possible to be fast and secure,” Yen wrote in the channel at the end of August. “Stop thinking always of how to be slower, and focus more on how to be faster.” Yen added, “stop lovingly handcrafting all our code and use AI more.”

    I'm a long time Kagi subscriber, this is not just to criticize, I would like to have other people's opinions.

    Financing Yandex never sat right with me.
    Now with the recent attacks on Yandex servers and the perceived decrease in activity of far right accounts I'm even more wary about paying for Kagi. I'm otherwise very happy with the service provided, and it will be difficult not to rely on it anymore.

    I'm still waiting for a clearer picture. It might be misinformation.

    There are however reports that MAGA, Afd, Reform UK and Musk posts media presence and public engagement has dropped.

    Sync, then later the open source Slide were amazing. Apollo on iOS was ridiculously good.

    And now I'm using Voyager and Summit on Lemmy and Piefed and in some regards they might be even better. Summit especially has become so good.

    A shame about the Sync version for Lemmy, hit and run the dev took the money and abandoned it. I suppose they were hoping for more growth, but still. Although I'm no dev and probably shouldn't judge

    I've acquired a second hand Thinkpad T14 recently (gen 1, Intel version). Running Fedora Gnome.

    The SSD seems fine.
    I tested it with Gnome Disks; I filled the drive with files and checked their integrity; also copied files around, on drive and from USB. No issues.

    But many downloaded files become corrupted. The download finishes normally, but if If I try to open said files they fail (in the middle of a video for example) and if I copy them I get an "input/output" error.
    LAN or WAN, over ethernet or Wifi, it doesn't matter.

    Could it still be the SSD? Or maybe a driver issue?

    Thank you for reading!
