Fuck around, with fascism, and find out.

Each SimpleX release gets me closer to using it. The upcoming v5.8 update is no exception:

This release focus is improving the app usability, and preparing the foundation for v5.8 that will provide an in-built protection of user IP addresses when connecting to unknown file and messaging servers, reducing the need to use Tor (which would still remain supported via SOCKS proxy, for additional privacy).

And another round of security audits:

We are planning a 3rd party security audit for the protocols and cryptography design in July 2024, and also the security audit for an implementation in December 2024/January 2025,

Looking good.

Edit: SimpleX v5.7.5 is 313 MB without Data/Cache on Android. Yikes.

And it was a proper Warehouse successor, too.

My two favorite maps.

Trying to break that million point grind.

Damn, that was 25 years ago.

Thanks, I’ll re-listen and edit. I certainly don’t want to cast an unwarranted aspergion.

Edit: You’re absolutely correct, the dialog required careful attention. I’ll fix my post.

Supercomputers were feared to be untenable resource consumers then, too.

Utilizing nuclear to feed AI may be the responsible and sustainable option, but there’s a lot of FUD surrounding all of these things.

One thing is certain: Humans (and now AI) will continue to advance technology, regardless of consequence.

Wow, good catch!

The forefront of technology overutilizes resources?

Always has been.

Edit: Supercomputers have existed for 60 years.

Listen to the audio, it never specifies case.

I think it’s bullshit, too.

It’s a bit strange for her to make a definitive statement this late. Why now?

Edit: Joy Reid was referring to Palestinian babies. I corrected my OP.

Joy Reid of MSNBC went on record yesterday saying she finally saw the actual beheaded Israeli Palestinian baby photos from October 7th. Is there anything substantiated with this?

I’ll see if I can find the program and block.

Edit 2: I got the context wrong. Thanks @Psychodelic@lemmy.world for the correction.

Sauce

Not even close to the only thing.

Behold.

Says a lot about society

Sure does. This was mainstream, cutting-edge in 1988.

How have we strayed so far?

Opposite. I get the feeling that Willem Dafoe is a down-to-earth normal guy with a haunting voice, intense stare, and unsettling smile with extreme comical affect. He strikes me as an individual with the patience of a saint.

I got the game bundled with a SoundBlaster Live! Platinum 5.1 kit and played it before, during, and after 9/11, and was blown away by the coincidences that appeared eerily prescient during this time.

The game came out in 2000 btw.

And the last official patch was…

…176 days before 9/11. Crazy foresight.
