Family picture of the #Pebble watches I regularly sport. All powered by #SailfishOS (currently the PT2 with AppSupport)!
Couldn't find my Pebble Steel for the pic.

Why don’t they just ask the AI how to make AI profitable?

why did they call them "ai datacenters" when they could have called them "slopping malls"

When we said that we found and fixed hundreds of bugs in Firefox using AI, people were skeptical and said: Where are the bugs?

Well, here they are. We are unhiding 12 security bugs that are representative of the issues we have found.

Just ordered the #jolla phone. I've longed for a high quality Linux phone for ages, and hopefully this is it. Imagine being able to build and load any app.. well, that's the vision. That's actually above the privacy angle for me.

The fact of life is:

If you have to trust your data between techbro corp and singular furry writing a hobby project, always choose the furry.

Listening to cybersecurity people freak out over Mythos is so tiring. Like, bro, your local water treatment plant runs Windows XP, your mobile provider's hardware is older than you are, and the protocol that routes internet traffic is secured by everyone just agreeing that hijacking it would be uncool.
