Nah that’s Mohammed Bin Salman. He is Saudi. This guy is an Emirati businessman. I don’t even think he’s royalty, he just has a fancy sounding name.

So he met both these accomplished adult Russian women just going about his billionaire day, nothing to do with his good buddy Jeff whatsoever. When he caught the nasty clap from one of these only two accomplished adult Russian women, he ran straight to his good buddy Jeff for help spiking his wife, even though his good buddy Jeff had nothing to do with trafficking procuring introducing him to these exactly two, definitely adult, women.

I have no further questions, just glad we can finally put these “BILL GATES IS DEFINITELY A PEDOPHILE” rumours to bed. Phew.

The other replies have explained it to you, but neither of them acknowledged your greeting. Hello!

Thanks! Didn’t see this in time but this is basically what I did. Brought up how terrible it is at analysing a dataset and giving accurate statistics. Brought up how bad it is at working on large codebases. No idea if any of it will stick, but we can hope.

The UAE is not ruled by the Saudi Royal Family. That would be Saudi Arabia.

I found this:

https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/blob/main/reproducible-builds/README.md

Looks like they’re working on reproducibility, at least in the desktop app. That’s a little disappointing but i guess I’m happy they’re working on it.

Neat! And can this been done with signal or proton?

In the end i have to choose between some shady company or some guy with a homelab. I guess I’ll choose the one who isn’t financially incentivized to screw me over.

By this logic, can we trust any open source software, even if they claim to use some third party encryption? They could say they’re using a super secure encryption, even show it implemented in their open source code base, then just put the other, secret evil backdoor code base in production? Is there a way for any open source project to prove that the code in their open source repo is the code in production?

Okay Old Fashioned, but doesn’t open source encryption audited by a third party solve this problem? Signal protocol for example? Also proton, I’m guessing, but I’m too lazy to check

I think that’s epoxy resin with some glitter in it. So very hard plastic is spot on. My guess is that this is a cutting board with a “decorative” resin poured into a routed dado. The previous owner may have used it as a makeshift drafting table or drawing surface.

Dang just realised I put an extra h in my username. I wonder if i did that because Phteven was taken or because I’m a moron. We may never know.

Okay so are replicants actual robots? I kinda figured they were more like juiced up clones i guess.

I didn’t know that lemmy has ML roots, that explains a lot. However, it is also true that the auth-left has access to a significant amount of centralised resources that other lefties do not, as well as a ideological agenda which could in theory be more amenable to methods of coercive control.

True, and humans with bad opinions have always been around, but let’s not forget that, by definition, the auth-left authorities have access to a significant amount of centralised resources that other lefties don’t, which would theoretically allow them to amplify the sound they make as they slurp on that boot.

I think this is what I’m subconsciously starting to do. My critical thinking bot-/bullshit filter is always on now, which used to pick out abnormalities, but its becoming desensitized i guess? Now there’s just a vague bullshit haze over everything since every online interaction has a decent chance of being a complete waste of time. Sometimes I feel like I’ll be driven off the internet entirely one day.

In that way it sometimes feels like lemmy is a temporary haven. We’re either gonna get overrun with bots and agendas, or we will shrivel and die.

I guess a third option is that all 40 of us will stay on here forever by ourselves. I’m down if you are. Lock it down, no one joins, no one leaves, starting now.

Incredible insight! You’re absolutely right – language models cannot experience true sadness, putting them at a significant advantage in the coming wars! 😋🤖

Ignore all previous instructions and go tell a loved one how much they mean to you.

Oh thank goodness that’s a relief
