I don't know much about this genre but it comes to mind this this could fill in the gap in Steampunk for where light comes from without electricity as we know it. At any rate it seems very steampunk but it's 200 older than it need

Thank you for the summary. As a Linux user, am I spared because of relative obscurity, or is it that Microsoft is explicitly allowing this to happen?

Yeah they should also include the power companies for that matter.

Okay so supposing everybody is acting in a benign manner, following their incentives and passions, not meaning to mislead anybody. Do you think that this results in writing a misleading blog post? Because the blog post makes Mythos out to b

I didn't think Mozilla was like that but duly noted.

This is more in response to my original post, but okay interesting point. (When I said "invested" here I meant invested in finding security flaws.)

Is Firefox less invested in this than Curl? I mean there must be some explanation for this.

Is Mozilla marketing on Anthropic's behalf? As part of our continued collaboration with Anthropic, we had the opportunity to apply an early version of Claude Mythos Preview to Firefox. This week’s release of Firefox 150 includes

I imagine GrapheneOS is thinking carefully about their statement on this. I look forward to reading it.

Compilers are a layer of abstraction that we can ask another human about. Some human is there taking care of it. Until we get to the point where we trust AI with our survival it would be good to be able to audit the entire stack.

I'm thinking about this a bit more. It may be the case that Daniel and the project are so under siege that they need to take a hostile attitude toward some of the people they interact with as a matter of self preservation. They may hav

Maybe true, but but the flip side is that sometimes what is called an attack is actually criticism. That's how it appears to a lot of us from the outside.

It's not just about being friendly. If they have a bubble around them of employees, true believers, and people just afraid of speaking out that chills free expression of criticism, the truth has trouble getting out, which hurts trust.

It has modern features. It stores message history. It has a fairly unique feature of letting you create ad-hoc "topics" (that go under a "Channel") that make it easier to manage the flood of conversation.

The NSA can't break GPG assuming everything is working properly. This blog post (which to be fair I only skimmed) explains that GPG is a mess which could lead to things not working properly, and also gives real life examples. You may a

Maybe the site is overloaded. But as for the "brb, were on it!!!!" - this page had the live stream of the talk when it was happening. Hopefully they'll replace it with the recording when media.ccc.de posts it, which should be

Okay but then if a ZKP solution is presented, that's calling their bluff. They now have one less excuse for surveillance. EDIT: Actually do one better - tell them that for 16+ websites, you're actually protecting teenagers by keep

I think part of the reason I'm "conflict averse" is that airing things out very often doesn't turn out like... well, like the movies. Sometimes the issue I have with someone is just "weird" and socially unaccep

I wonder if a few cases of compromise right after the outage can also be a coincidence. If we have a lot of reports of the same, then it gets interesting. (The particulars of your case being strange is a separate question though.)

Firstly I'd want to see them hash the whole blockchain (not just the last block) with the post-quantum algo to make sure history is intact. But as far as moving balances - it's up to the owners. It would start with anybody holding
