    Joe Biden pulls out of 2024 US presidential race

    Jump

  • Well, if he drops out of the race he will not be able to continue supporting genocide in 2025, of course... that will be instead continued by his successor, whoever they might be.

  • AMD to buy Finnish start-up Silo AI for $665mn in drive to compete with Nvidia

    Jump

  • Silo AI is committed to “open source” AI models, which are available for free and can be customised by anyone. This distinguishes it from the likes of OpenAI and Google, which favour their own proprietary or “closed” models.

    It's funny that a company called Silo AI makes open LLM models while one called OpenAI makes closed ones...

  • I hate Clouds - a personal perspective on why I think Clouds suck

    Jump

  • You're welcome! And yes, I can confirm it works in light mode as well :)

  • tup - open source self-hosted tunnel proxy

    Jump

  • If you want people to take you seriously about being open source, you need to have a git repo, like github, gitlab, etc. you can even self host one. Heck, you can even use a different (non git) DVCS, but not just a link to a cloud drive...

  • I was reading the site on Android, and it looked dark, but after seeing this comment, I tried disabling Android system wide dark mode, and sure enough it became white like in the screenshot! For the record, I tried with both Firefox and a Chromium-based browser.

  • What does a world without Airbnb look like?

    Jump

  • While that's true, short term (vacation) rentals existed well before airbnb, they just weren't so prevalent.

  • US bans Kaspersky antivirus software due to 'national security risk'

    Jump

  • McAfee is not Russan, just like Instagram is not Chinese (I thought it was clear enough).

    Yes it's a clear reference to TikTok, which I don't like for many many reasons, but none of those reasons is why it was banned, it's because it's Chinese.

    Jump

  • But is not Russian, just like Instagram is not Chinese.

  • TikTok Is in Some Minority Report-Style Legal Trouble

    Jump

  • The reference to Minority Report is right in the subtitle:

    The social media app might get hit with a federal lawsuit before its ban officially begins as the FTC has issued a warning for possible future crimes.

    and apparently the FTC statement includes these words:

    violating or are about to violate the law.

    I mean, I also don't really like TikTok and have a hard time picturing an adult using it as well, but that doesn't mean it should be held accountable for "future crimes". At least, that's what the article is claiming...

  • Steadfast Self-Hosting, a book by Adam Monsen

    Jump

  • That's possible, I'm using Firefox, is that something firefox would do?

  • The site does use https for me... it instantly redirects from http to https

  • The Dutchman who gets Nike and Lego into wartime Russia’s stores

    Jump

  • From the article:

    Herinckx said his focus is on consumer goods not covered by sanctions. Reuters found no evidence that his firm was violating sanctions.

    His business might be of dubious morality but it might not be illegal, so I'm not sure the government can do much.

  • AMD has preemptively dropped support for Windows 10 on its new Ryzen AI 300 Series chips

    Jump

  • Ok, so, no official support for Windows 10, but can you still install and run Windows 10 and renouce whatever "support" or will it just not work?

  • How Online Privacy Is Like Fishing

    Jump

  • I agree with the sentiment, but I think the article meant "service" in a more general way. For example, developing software for sale, to be used offline and/or on device rather than cloud, can also be considered a service.

  • Copilot Recall and it's consequences

    Jump

  • When I saw "Copilot Recall" I initially thought they recalled Copilot ... one can dream

  • Guide: How to install Google apps on Huawei phones

    Jump

  • The guide is suggesting to install microG, an open source reimplementation of Google services that even many "degooglers" use.

  • Electric bikes are about to get more expensive, and the timing couldn’t be worse

    Jump

  • While that might be true, it doesn't look like The Verge was sponsored by any specific ebike company to write this article, since they never mention any specific brand.

    Edit: actually after scrolling down enough, they did interview people from some ebike company. Still doesn't look (too) sponsored

  • Samsung mocks Apple’s crushing iPad Pro ad with its own ‘UnCrush’ pitch

    Jump

  • Maybe I should've specified that it was unlocked via the official "OEM Unlock" switch provided by Samsung. Yes, there are Samsung phones that can be unlocked, though you're right, many cannot be (usually US versions).

  • Samsung mocks Apple’s crushing iPad Pro ad with its own ‘UnCrush’ pitch

    Jump

  • Yes, and up to not long ago, also completely different hardware (exynos vs snapdragon). US samsung devices usually cannot be bootloader unlocked. Rest of the world usually can. No idea why.
