    Over the weekend, I lent a hand at my local library as they assisted a few customers installing #linux onto their laptops that don&#39;t support #Win11 . One person I was helped, got stuck while I was answering questions. Instead of waiting they took initiative and asked a big #LLM , and got an answer before I finished. Later on I went about the process of looking up the same question manually, the way I usually do it, it took me about 15 minutes to find the answer. 1/2

    @arstechnica@mastodon.social I’ve suddenly gotten curious about anti-drone electronic warfare. I wonder if there’s a great hardware hacking project I could take up this winter.

    @randahl@mastodon.social just visiting twitter makes you complicit with Musk&#39;s agenda through engagement and ad views that makes revenue. I did recently stumble on this browser extension https://github.com/DoingFedTime/PrivacyPlease It redirects any twitter link to Nitter. Also, with Nitter you can generate RSS feeds of any account you still might want to follow. I generally don&#39;t like browser extensions, but this is actually pretty useful. Only downside, not on mobile, yet.

    @ppb1701 very good post. It feels like some weird fanboy-ism is ruining everything on the ol&#39; internet these days, particularly the discourse around privacy and security. I&#39;m just not sure what people think these businesses have done to earn their loyalty in the face of valid criticism.
