For linux we have bubblewrap, firejail, apparmor and selinux (popular ones, there are far more). But it is often complicated and annoying to set up. Normally one would expect sw developers would write security rules for their apps but it is

Exaclty, the main problem is that they are deciding what content to serve you. They are often mixing posts from accounts which I don't follow with posts from accounts I follow without asking. Then thr are pushing auto-play and infinite

Currently the best VPN-alternative seem to be Project X https://xtls.github.io/en/ It is flexible and well tested in China but configuring it properly is quite difficult.

There is also a game Dreamfall: The Longest Journey where they have devices which fastens to user's face and allow one to have lucid dreams. But they are two-way so the corporation can also control that. Then there also also "unl

Funny, I can't even access his site: " Sorry, you have been blocked You are unable to access stephvee.ca " - CloudFlare Anti-AI but pro-MITM and pro-centralisation, limiting human visitors to his site...

Restic to almost any cloud storage provider. It works perfectly, it is client-side encrypted with easily-configurable retention policies. I have been using it happily for many years (and also restored some files from the backups).

No, the problem is that windows is in schools and come pre-installed with majority of computers. Another problem is kernel-level anti-cheats mentioned earlier.

Yes, they have. They’ve made tons of great products and services that you use every day without even thinking about it, in contrast to Russia for example. It’s a shame you don’t see how much they've improved our quality of life.

HP Zbook G1a (Ryzen AI max+ 395) is getting closer and has an M.2 SSD slot. But Macbooks undeniably have better battery life (touchpad, sound and display). I selected this over Macbook because I value linux and openness more. But it's

Recently I fixed my X11 tearing by simply running a compositor (compton). Not having a compositor didn't prevent xserver from working but it was tearing. I remember that historically it was a mess, some x11 gpu driver even had a "

One of the examples of devices which are e-waste from the time they were manufactured. But people won't listen. Soon there will be lots of complains of people that they can't run more than one app on it and that it's garbage.

Depends on what you expect from the model. For coding/agentic tasks there is SWE Bench https://www.swebench.com/ which gives a better picture. MiniMax, GLM and Kimi K2 seem to be better models for this purpose than Qwe
