I’ve had Proton for a while, I’m satisfied, would recommend.

Previously I used to use Nord, but ever since… Uh I forgot what they did. They changed headquarters? Disclosed something they shouldn’t? Somebody here will correct me and point out what happened.

Anyway, Proton 👍

If the podcast is available on YouTube, Newpipe does the job brilliantly and you even have forks/options to skip sponsor ads too.

Fair enough, though there aren’t any bulletproof solutions for this. I am inclined to think the solution would be with encryption and security and not so much altering the images themselves. Fuck AI, corporate greed and the uselessly slow legal system.

Thanks. That’s interesting, I didn’t know the mods here were mods there too. I believe people here wouldn’t be letting things fall apart (there is a reason people moved away from Reddit and the quality of content here is proof).

I was surprised to see those comments implying the megathread was no longer reliable though, I figured it was a stretch but had no idea why would they be thinking that.

I’m concerned about this comment in the linked Reddit post.

What does it mean, “same mods”? What about “safety”? Can someone clarify?

I haven’t, I’ve only heard of Nightshade and Glaze as promoted on Cara but it’s not what you describe

Lovely, thank you!

These headlines, sometimes…

Thanks, that was a good read. FB is so disgusting. Had I known a tool like this existed I may have stayed. I haven’t used for at least 5 years, but I kept the messenger lite app to stay in touch with people via chat. They killed the app and that was it for me. The feed is garbage. Meta is garbage.

I’ve read the ars article linked too, and I think this attitude is so petty- most people aren’t power users or inclined to customise their social media/browser experience. The amount of people who would use the tool would be minimal in comparison with the majority who happily eats their feed without question. Meta is greed incarnate.

I’m extremely OOTL with this, and now, intrigued

Yes they say it doesn’t fix that error and it’s true but most videos are playable now, so happy

Eh not that it’s crystal clear to me but the winner actually looks much more realistic in terms of what’s achievable for real humans than the runner ups. I think there is some sort of merit in the clout category, all participants already have a media presence which for better or worse means they drive some engagement. I’m not saying it has virtue though.

I take it as a silly competition. A just because you can thing.

I’m disappointed it says “pirated” above the Adobe products instead of " M0nkrus"

This looks really cool, looking forward to the spider version

Another user here, yes it does what it says it does and it keeps things minimalist but with enough data graphics to keep you entertained. I recommend

Pardon my ignorance but I’m OOTL- why is substack a bad thing? ( I didn’t know of its existence before this post)

It’s only been one year. I’d like to see how this topic aged in 2026. AI is developing at an unprecedented speed for a socioeconomic phenomenon of its calibre.

Edit: And yes we might need some kind of government support. What scares me is, where do you get the money to support such a large population?

Couldn’t agree more, you make a point with the timeline. It’s changing too fast. And it’s not only ChatGPT but also image generation tools such as Midjourney. There are AI for 3D models too now, which I believe will be of industry standard quality in a year or two.

AI is a phenomenon of a similar weight as the Industrial Revolution, but its much faster development means a lot of people can’t keep up or change careers

You are right but the problem here is it’s happening all at once on several fields. It’s not just elevator operators, it’s anyone doing basic design tasks, writing, translating, voice narrating, and basic programming. And that’s a lot of jobs.

Channel tabs?!?!?! Woohoo!!! 🎉
