12·29 days agoBased on how much the institutions of the US will continue to uphold, I think we’ll see the impact in 10 years or more. Hopefully, though – granted, hope isn’t an operational term, just an ideal – there will be some measure of course correction within that decade.

Ah, suck face, get sad

121·1 month agoHello! I recently deployed GPUStack, a self-hosted GPU resource manager.
It helps you deploy AI models across clusters of GPUs, regardless of network or device. Got a Mac? It can toss a model on there and route it into an interface. Got a VM on a sever somewhere? Same. How about your home PC, with that beefy gaming GPU? No prob. GPUStack is great at scaling what you have on hand, without having to deploy a bunch of independent instances of ollama, llama.ccp, etc.
I use it to route pre-run LLMs into Open WebUI, another self-hosted interface for AI interactions, via the OpenAI API that both GPUStack and Open WebUI support!

I have been doing my damnedest not to let anger be any more of a motivator than morality or principle. I want to retain some sense of rationality. I want to navigate this all well enough.
Today, after this article, anger is a major motivation. I am pissed.

There will always be MITM attacks for radio networks, whether at initialization, a de-auth, jamming, etc. Cell site simulators (CSS) are still threats.
While the original 3G-based IMSI attacks are not as useful (because few devices, if at all, use 3G anymore), the approach is still a known tactic for street-level surveillance.
Groups like the EFF wouldn’t put out projects like Rayhunter if these kinds attacks weren’t considered relevant. And, especially now, they are relevant.

I get it. There are ways to gave privacy and dignity without having to have your own room, though, like finding a free or salvaged desk and set of bins to hold all your things in one spot.
Sharing a small studio with multiple people – roommates or family – works best when everyone kind of agrees that ‘their’ space is ‘theirs,’ and certain spaces have, say, the furniture arranged in a way that boundary off / designate those areas.
It’s not always fun, but it works! Take it from somebody with experience. You can figure something out to make some areas feel more like ‘yours.’
90·2 months agoThe short, easy answer: it typically takes a lifetime of service for the rest of the church to determine if they fit the bill to be Pope.
If you have a smart TV, you’re already at a disadvantage.
One solution to consider might be a black hole DNS on your local network, like Pi-Hole, that can target this device and prevent all Google requests.
Another, unfortunately, might be to get a dumb TV and use an HTPC as your streaming solution for the content you already watch.
And another might be to look into custom TV OS options out in the wild.
5·3 months agoHey, just tossing in a comment here, I think this post is a good post!
