Israel is a useful state to strengthen the American grip abroad (it carries out American interests without an American label) plus it’s the perfect testing grounds for unethical surveillance (and worse) on the people both within and outside its borders
I’m sorry, I forget that these articles (which are fully accessible to me thanks to “registration” and IIRC browser cookies) are not necessarily visible elsewhere. There’s a helper bot in another community, I wonder if it’ll work here too
This article wasn’t posted by Hotznplotzn, so I knew Russia and China weren’t behind it
You still need to do some GitHub navigating, but you should be able to pull this off by using a Mozilla Corp project.
I can’t see the image, but if you are using a Samsung device, you have to re-enable notification categories (because for some reason Samsungs just disable this option and hide away the ability to return it).
It’s at the bottom of Settings > Advanced Settings
I’m on mobile and that’s the only part of the image I see! I tried opening it on the website and desktop mode too, no luck. This might be a “me” thing.
For reference, the image it loads for your comment is https://ponder.cat/pictrs/image/8fc63e27-00d6-4fb9-9f27-a023b8df9c56.png
Is there a version of this screenshot that has more text above and to the left? Maybe it’s just my client, but it’s hard to read:
I think your first screenshot got cropped wrong - I think it cuts off much of the comment you want to display, while leaving one that’s not relevant
(Otherwise, PTB)
That looks like a really interesting project, but the scope appears to be outside of what I was looking for. I think people here are looking for something more like Google Photos or Ente, something that operates more like a gallery app with extra features on top.
One of the earliest user requests after Mozilla opened them up to the public!
They also track the other popular user requests, although it’s a total crapshoot weather they will ever get implemented. Moneymakers (AI features, Ad telemetry, shopping Sidebar, profitable search engine partnerships) tend to get pushed to the front of the pack.
I think the bigger question is, how did shaving off 1% of Google’s market share guarantee the absolute destruction of its single competitor? It’s a devilishly sneaky position Google got itself into, creating mutually assured destruction between one of its many tendrils and one of its competitors.
Not like Mozilla did much better, systematically painting itself into a corner while it promised tens of millions of dollars towards AI projects over the past few years…
It’s a bit unfortunate that there are options for tagging photos automatically and even on-device (Ente is a third, which will run on your local phone or any synced device, propagating data across other devices)… But nothing that runs exclusively on-device without syncing.
There’s no apparent reason an app couldn’t do the tagging on-device to device-exclusive photos.
Same thing here. If I don’t see a source code repository, the result is an obvious no-go. Especially because I’m pretty sure there are others, similar projects that either exist in the wider closed source space.
Accountability is an important thing for these kinds of apps. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a reputation online, that’s about as bad as having a bad reputation. No offense intended, it’s just inevitable.
The post got removed a year later, by Reddit filters?
wtf
True. I don’t know much about their software, though. They’ve released so much stuff over a short amount of time, I’m having a hard time keeping track
Heh. OpenAI already accused them of training off their ChatGPT output. Hilarious if true (because fuck OpenAIq), but impressive if false.
It’s actually easier than that - the model gets loaded onto open-source software that is usually made by American companies. It doesn’t connect to stuff… because it can’t. It’s like an MP4 or jpeg file.
TDI (they deserved it) unless Feddit admins pop in with some extravagant response
I don’t trust myself to handle secure encryption. Nextcloud has given up on providing client-side encryption at all… So the obvious choice for me is Immich.
Although since I’ve fallen for Ente, I’d probably use that instead.
Unfortunately, Nextcloud has given me so much pain in my attempt to make it E2E that I’ve basically given up on using it at all. For stuff that’s not images or passwords or notes - which is a fleetingly small list of things - I tend to use either Filen or Proton’s services.
