Those damn Muslim immigrants! /s

Somehow Trump and friends are going to try to make this sound like it's immigrants rioting like they did for the student protests. It's crazy how right news outlets kept repeating his nonsense.

    Is it possible that much of the incriminating evidence has already been removed by Trump and his appointees, or is this something that would be impossible? Meaning that there would be an actual record somewhere, even if it's classified topsecret++.

    1500 years ago, they were disjointed nomadic tribes living in the desert.

    What I assume you're referring to is maybe 1000 years ago, when they had the largest and most advanced civilization in the world.

    You can look up the Baghdad University, the Cairo University, or Andalusian Spain for more info.

    I can't remove it because there is no delete image option (in my client at least; I am using Voyager), only a replace image. I suppose I could replace it with a single pixel image but I think at this point it doesn't matter.

    I am actually very interested in the news feed thing. How do you find duplicates in the news feeds? Wouldn't you have to pull the actual articles and then have MB of data to shift through which would exceed the window? Do you use a vector DB? Do you just have it use curl or do you pay for an Internet API service?

    I'm not advertising any service. I added an image because Lemmy wouldn't let me post the question without one. I think I may have chosen the wrong post type or something. Sorry for the confusion.

    Does anyone run their own AI service?

    If so,

    Which one?

    What hardware?

    Do you have a way to access it from outside or from a phone?

    And, if you're open to sharing, what do you do with it?

    I know AI-enabling hardware is insanely expensive right now, but some of the smaller (<32GB) more efficient models (think deepseek- or qwen-based) don't absolutely need specialized hardware to run and perform well enough for many purposes.

    I am so aware of the absolutely abysmal privacy practices of basically all AI companies that I'm not comfortable using them to help me with web searches and the such, because there's no way that all this information won't be going into a profile. This makes me want to have my own "helper" service.

    And move SSH to a non-default port. Without that, my public-facing servers get thousands of SSH attacks a day, and it basically goes to zero after moving it to a random-looking high port.

    Also, totally agree with using public key login and disable password login.

    "Devices at international news network Al Jazeera were infected with mercenary spyware from Candiru (rebranded as “Integrity Labs”) via targeted online advertisements.

    The malicious advertisements were purchased by Discover-Tech, an Israeli company that presents itself as a legitimate advertising company, but which we found operates as a facilitator for multiple mercenary spyware partners.

    Discover-Tech operates a platform called Controlium that enables its mercenary partners to de-anonymize, fingerprint, and automatically infect devices the moment an advertisement is rendered — a form of zero-click attack."
