Agreed! Many people are saying AI isn't really intelligent yet because it can't come up with genuinely new things. Maybe finding a rigorous formulation of QFT / high-energy physics would be a great test for whether they are

I spent this past weekend giving UTM w/ Apple Virtualization a shot and can confirm that it really does work fantastically well! The only downside seems to be that it's not possible to pass USB devices through to the VM guest yet?

GrapheneOS has support for eSIM management these days but IIRC they need to invoke proprietary Google libraries for that to work.

Malarone? Interesting, because that's supposed to be the prophylactic therapy with the mildest side effects. I have taken it many times and have never had any, and – up until now – I had also never heard of anyone having some.

If you're already using a Pixel, why base your custom, very much stripped down version of Android on LineageOS as opposed to GrapheneOS? From a security perspective, that's insanity. (I would actually love to see a GrapheneOS-base
