My stance on #LLM :

1. There _might_ be some useful use cases with this technology that could be worth exploring.

2. However, it is glaringly obvious that, as of now, their main purpose is to power the mother of all investments bubbles.

3. Which leads us to the present trillion dollar business case for "we must build energy- and water-wasting data centers everywhere so that we can scrape every single website a thousand times a month for new training data!"

4. Thus, there is currently pretty much no ethical way of using LLMs.

5. Any ethical exploration of LLM use cases will thus have to wait until the bubble has burst, the investors have moved on to the next scam, and we can sort through the rubble to check what is left.

OH: “What is it about DNS that people find so difficult? It’s just cache invalidation and naming things.”

Fun post pointed out by Werner Koch on the GPG "post-quantum defaults" thread:

https://www.metzdowd.com/pipermail/cryptography/2026-March/039449.html

"""
Quantum Cryptography, while intellectually neat, does not present a
practical attack that we need protection against at this time.
Kleptographic Standards on the other hand are very much a practical
attack that we need to protect against at this time.

When a standards body tells you that you should cast aside well-studied
cryptographic algorithms which have earned their trust through dozens of
years of examination, testing, and motivated attackers, for the sake of
protection against Quantum Crypto? The attack you should be protecting
against isn’t Quantum Crypto.

Hi everyone!
I'm Eliza, a lesbian OC artist from Belgium. I mainly do illustrations and comics of my babies Celdervinn and Mihoko.

You can also hire me for your very own commission ✨ https://vgen.co/artbyeliza (or email)

I'd be grateful for your repost ❤️

hey i have an idea for the oil crisis

what if we pool our resources to build very large fuel efficient vehicles of some kind that we all share- like a library that moves. a public resource.

we could call it… free public transgender surgeries

Dr John Hammond didn't think it was possible to transition from female to male and that's what lead directly to the catastrophic events of Jurassic Park.

The moral of the story is trans rights or else get eaten by dinosaurs.

Here's to all the kids who were born with non-default settings; to all you who put the effort in to figure yourselves out.

You're amazing and deserve to be celebrated.

I'm glad you're here 💝

My washing machine doesn’t need Wi-Fi.
It's a feature that I would regret.
I just need a way to wash my pants.
Not show them to the Internet.

My oven doesn't need Wi-Fi.
I'd value that least of all.
It's already shielded from getting too hot.
It doesn't need another firewall.

My fridge does not need Wi-Fi.
That is just not useful for me.
I want a place to chill my food.
Not chat via TCP/IP.

it is because of the twitter transfemmes that we think of Caesium-127 as a girl name

Good morning

can you all stop promoting homophobic and transphobic alternatives to Firefox?
its recent moves are bad, and hostile to a privacy conscious userbase

but on device machine learning, and modest ads is not worse than having actively LGBT hostile developers
