Why are so many conservative conspiracies schizo sounding?

you can still use a yubikey or even a password manager like keepassxc with passkeys, no need for any google/apple or even secure enclave.

As a Go dev, its simplicity is arguably taken too far. For example there are no union types or proper enums

The main benefit is since it is locally installed, it is harder for proton's server to access your encrypted data by serving you malicious JS. A malicious desktop app/update could be served too, but that may be trickier.

Unfortunately, its not clear if masks actually stop facial recognition. I think it helps, but not probably not as well as it did before covid.

Depending on what you're doing, Local LLM can help a bit. Like if i want a recipe for an apple pie i could use LLaMA-2 to find out even without an internet connection.

Not saying its a replacement for a search engine, i just think its worth mentioning.

(edit for grammar)

Hey, I'm currently stretched pretty thin on projects so it will be quite some time before i'm able to port it, however I appreciate the interest. If you or anyone you know is willing to port it, i would appreciate help.

I was partly inspiried by this extension for chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/keyboard-privacy/aoeboeflhhnobfjkafamelopfeojdohk

However I am not sure if it is open source and i don't think its maintained anymore. It is a good starting point regardless.

Thanks, will look into it

I use xpra which lets me run persistent seamless windows from my VMs and remote servers. It would probably work okay with xwayland but i might as well keep using X. I understand why people use Wayland though and would recommend it to newcomers.

They're decent for text completion purposes, e.g. generating some corpspeak for an email, or generating some "wikipedia"-like text. You have to know how to write good prompts, don't try to treat it like ChatGPT.

For example if i want to know about the history of Puerto Rico I would put:

"The history of puerto rico starts in about 480BC when"
