I had no idea f-droid and let's encrypt used US government funding. Hope somebody steps in to plug that hole.

He’d cut his own dick off if it owned some libs.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

He doesn't care about that. He's literally a selfish toddler in a decrepit old man body, he cares about himself exclusively. On top of that he's got zero capacity to plan ahead in any meaningful way, so if doing something gets an immediate result he'll do it.

Off topic, stock pics of Trump all seem from around his last term so when I see a recent comment he looks old and deformed like an uncanny valley monster, like his face is a melted Nixon mask.

We should use recent photos for stock Trump pics the way we did with Biden.

Cunt funding by $1 and drive passion by 100%.

Little worried about what you are teaching your autocorrect.

I don't use AI, in any form if I can help it. That was a 100% all natural ty[p.

[–] WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

autocorrect normally does not rely on AI, its older tech

I'm considering the term more broadly here, to refer to it because the function takes control away from the user without their input. I also like having to go back and manually correct my own mistakes, to improve my own tpying/spelling.

[–] WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it does not take control away, unless you set it so. but that way DRM and windows would be AI too, eve though none of these have anything to do with intelligence

That's why I use O&Oshutup to turn off many of windows' automatic functions. Probably my last windows machine anyways.

this is like an AI bot's response that completely misses the point of the comment, and instead picks up a random word and continues writing about that

[–] ogmios@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

I just like spreading the good word when people complain about some of Windows' shitty features.

Sure, you could better automate this with OpenBao (not OpenTofu funnily enough)

You'd generate and sign your own root cert. Then manage all following changes with OpenBao as PKIs https://openbao.org/docs/secrets/pki/quick-start-root-ca/

Deeeep rabbit hole here https://openbao.org/docs/secrets/pki/considerations/
